yeah, and if you are ssh'd in,, start it like this: ssh -C -X hostname.domain
from your linux box.. then you can start mozilla and check it in a pretty gui :-) (the X in that ssh command means to forward X, so when you start mozilla, its display is forwarded to your ssh client..) very handy, you can run mandrakeupdate and stuff like that as well... until mandrake makes a robust console app for mandrakeupdate, I'll continue to do it this way. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Todd Lyons Sent: Tuesday, 26 November 2002 2:43 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] Baffled on permissions -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Norman wrote on Sat, Nov 23, 2002 at 01:43:07PM +0000 : > > Unfortunately the school is 50 miles away so it would not > be easy to keep checking things although the IT people at > the school are so impressed with the robustness of this > PC compared to the Win box they used to use ( they said > it crashed at least once per day and sometimes more often) > that they have started to pick up some linux knowledge. You can test the functionality of your changes yourself without having to drive 50 miles to the site. I'm assuming that the proxy server is running on the firewall. SSH to the box and edit /etc/lynx.cfg and make it use the proxy on localhost. Then you can check to see how the changes you have instituted are working out using lynx. Blue skies...
