SOCKS

2001-10-25 Thread Asher Densmore-Lynn
What're my options for forcing a program to use SOCKS when it doesn't
expecially want to?

I've installed a SOCKS proxy on a machine that's local to another link to
draw off the worst of our -- err -- non-administrative activities; firing
everyone (myself included) would be somewhat embarassing, so I need a
technical solution. It's helping already, since many Win32 programs support
SOCKS, but it could do more yet.

Techniques that'd work in Linux and/or FreeBSD would be appreciated.

You chould be able to somehow make it interoperable with outlook, at
least with manual procedures (maybe write a couple of macros, automatize
that too), and at least the contacts could be exchanged (no tasks

Have you checked that they are accessing http://news.bbc.co.uk, not bare
news.bbc.co.uk? Lynx seems to assume that anything starting with "news." is
by default a NNTP-server.

I used it for a while (I even paid for a license), but it kept
segfaulting.  This was version 1.03.  When I wrote to the support, they
said they knew and were coming out with a new version soon.  They never
got back to me when I had troubles downloading it from Tucows, though :(
It couldn't do the calendering in stand alone moue, it needed a WinNT
with proxy software installed, and IIRC, it used POP to get the mail.
There's a project on Source Forge.  Look it up:  www.sourceforge.net.

lynx, news.bbc.co.uk, DNS failures

2001-10-25 Thread cfm

Re lynx failing to follow CNAME

I've got users finding that lynx is failing to find news.bbc.co.uk.  It
happens most of the time, but not always.  Seems to relate to the TTL
on the A record to which news points.  Works fine with mozilla, netscape
and wget so I'm thinking it is lynx specific but I suppose it could be
something in the way bind caches queries.  Can anyone tell me why this 
is happening and/or suggest a work around?

There is a Company at

info on using Outlook with Linux. I have never used it but it looks
