DDSC uses the Linux firewall/server to run an intranet web server (and mail server etc). I am currently writing scripts to acquire and load on to the web server wx data from BoM and elsewhere so that we have that immediately available without having to download them from the web sites. Whilst we have a satellite broadband link, this will help keep down the data costs.
We also have recently installed an outdoor high gain antenna for our wireless network and we now have Internet access from the pie cart - allowing the duty pilot to keep an eye on the weather radar in stormy weather. There's also Internet access available from this system in the caravan park and camping area, so when you are here for the Qld state championships (24-28 September), you will be able to stay in touch. -- Robert Hart [EMAIL PROTECTED] +61 (0)438 385 533 http://www.hart.wattle.id.au _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
