Works for me. I can set up an ssh tunnel from my desktop box here in
Ottawa to your e-smith box in Vancouver.
ssh darrell -L 9898:localhost:980
You have 3 users, 1 group, 1 virtual domain, no printers, etc etc etc.
I'm using Netscape Communicator 4.76 running under RedHat 6.2.
It also works with lynx 2.8.3-2 under Redhat 6.2.
Perhaps it is an issue with IE 5.5.1.
PS For the rest of you, Darrell kindly gave me access to this box so
that I could do remote testing with IDE tape drives. I did NOT use any
e-smith back doors - there aren't any.
