had thought of setting up username 'ptaylor' password 'redhat' to allow you to telnet to the servers in Guildford to let you all access pine, or mutt and run a mail service that way.....:-) interestingly enough, has anybody used smb2www, if not have a look at:- http://samba.ngfl.gov.uk/samba/smb2www.pl if you want the hostname (or you can guess it) to try it out, drop me an email regards Malcolm On Wednesday 14 February 2001 14:27, Christopher Dawkins wrote:
As regards the meeting, I will produce maps,
I've printed out a nice map from the net. I shall be staying on Oxford on the Sunday night so as to get down in good time Monday. But I'd like to get access organised in advance, and with your help experiment to see if we can get VNC operating remotely, could be good fun.
I've just created user "ptaylor" password "suse" on our system. Easiest first way to connect is to browse to http://www.felsted.essex.sch.uk and click on the telnet button at the bottom, then log in. Try "pine", if it says "your terminal is duff" type "t" on a line by itself then pine will work and you can send a test message to yourself.
If all that works, we can look at more interesting things to do, but please feel free to browse around our system both on the web and through the telnet window, try any command you wish.
If it doesn't work, we have a problem, as that's the minimum I need next month.
