Hi,

A small tip that might be useful for others ...

The FAQ talks about remote administration through ssh (see
<http://www.e-smith.org/faq.php3#q6>) but this doesn't just apply to
command line access. 

You can remotely access the E-Smith web management interface by tunnelling
http traffic through ssh.

To do this you redirect the remote squid port to a local port, say 2500

    ssh -C -L2500:localhost:3128 remote_host

You then access the web interface via access the following URL:

    <http://localhost:2500/e-smith-manager/> 

Works like a treat - even over modem connections :-)

Steve
