2005-03-23 Thread Arnold Wiegert
In order to use the Perl Package Manager (ppm) on a WInME machine from behind my Dachstein firewall, I would like to set up a proxy. I know I can use ppm without it, but have run into a good number of problems and now would like to set up a proxy for it, not only to verify where the problems

Hi all, I've been using Dachstein with local dhcp for while now and all works well. But ;-) I've added a new linux box for CVS and when I try to resolve other machine names from the linux, I get unknown host errors, while the Windows boxes all seem to be able to resolve the names without

[leaf-user] occasioanl large file transfer needed

2004-11-29 Thread Arnold Wiegert
Since I am using LEAF (dachstein) and am not aware of any more specific user group, I'm posting my problem to this group. Besides, any solution will have to be accommodated by my firewall. Googling for 'file transfer' drowns me in a flood of music related info, not at all related to my

[leaf-user] testing of a firewall

I am trying to find a way to test my local firewall setup locally, i.e. without having to have someone else test it for me. The main areas I wanted to test was a setup for large file transfers between myself and a second user. This second user (my sister) would not have much IT training, so

I have now resolved all issues with this problem. Editing and backing up the sshd_config file from lrcfg makes sshd start on boot up. Still don't know what effect the changes I had to make will have, but at least it is going now. The PuTTY problem was a typo in the configuration - firewall IP

Hi all I'm still running Dachstein, but would like to use a serial line to access the 'box' from a Windows machine. Since I haven't found a good free VT100 emulation program, I've used and older modem program which does a pretty good job, except for the page up and down keys. They work well

After using my firewall for some time on Dachstein, I wanted to upgrade to Bering because it has some features I can't find for Dachstein - such as a time server. So, seeing Bering uClib seems to be getting all the attention these days, I tried it, but had no luck in getting it to recognize my
