Do you have to use a text based browser? If the reasons for doing so are that you only have ssh access and/or you have a low bandwidth connection from where you are to reach the server, you might look at freenx on the server or some other machine where a browser can run and reach the server, with the free NX program that you can download from http://www.nomachine.com. This gives you a usable X connection even at fairly low speeds and you can reconnect to a running session where you might already have a browser connected to backuppc. It works well for remote administration, but won't help if you are working from a device that only does character mode. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
