Hi Varun, I *believe* its not possible as the 24 hours online won't allow you to do so. If by any chance you manage to introduce a proxy at your client end, it should be a transparent one and that is impossible with a single LAN card.

I won't be able to install more LAN card on his machine. and he uses win98 and won't be able to change the s/w at his place. i use RHL9.0. any pointers???? affly Varun Anand _______________________________________________ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd _______________________________________________ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
