Firewall and Squid

From: "Evert Jan van Ramselaar" <evertjan(a)vanramselaar.net> Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2000 19:48:22 +0100 Message-ID: <000401c04f34$a124a180$09000a0a(a)vanramselaar.local> Subject: Firewall and Squid Hi there, I'm using SuSE 6.4 and installed firewalling, masquerading and squid from the cd's. Firewalling and masquerading works fine, so does squid when I specify the proxy and port in my client browsers. Now I want the firewall to redirect all http requests to the squid proxy. To do this, I changed this line in /etc/rc.config.d/firewall.rc.config FW_REDIRECT_TCP="" to this: FW_REDIRECT_TCP="10.0.0.0/8,0/0,80,3128" Squid is running on port 3128 and my clients are in the 10.* network. Now, when I restart the firewall, I get this error message: Starting Firewall Initialization: (final run) ipchains: No target by that name (Maybe this kernel doesn't support transparent proxying?) Is there a 'simple' solution to this problem? -- Evert Jan van Ramselaar evertjan(a)vanramselaar.net PGP Key ID : 0x1202DA95 <http://www.vanramselaar.nl>

Netscape and Chinese

The English text come up just fine but I can't make the Chinese load at all. I can't find anywhere to tell Netscape to use charset=windows-1252. I have set language preference to Chinese and have even deleted English as the secondary language and it still only shows me the English with ? for the Chinese characters. I have tried both of the traditional and the simplified Chinese character sets. This is fairly urgent as I have a customer who wants to read my website in Chinese and I have someone who will translate but if I can't view them I presume that neither can anyone else which defeats the purpose of the exercise. <HTML> <HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=windows-1252"> <META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="Microsoft Word 97"> <TITLE>Hello 你好</TITLE> <META NAME="Template" CONTENT="C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE\html.dot"> </HEAD> <BODY LINK="#0000ff" VLINK="#800080"> Hello 你好。 Very nice to meet you! 见到你很高兴。 Me too. 我也是。 What can I do for you? 我能为你做点什么？ If it is convenient , I would like to ask you to do some measurement for me.如果方便的话，我想请你为我量几个尺寸。 No problem.

Hi all... Does anyone out there have an old Tulip 486 computer (made in Holland)? I've got a "dt 486 dx/e", it's a 33mhz. I need the MoB manual for it. It came with 8mb memory and I added another 8mb, but the durn thing will not see it. There's a dip switch on the MoB and I bet that I need to change it, but I'm not sure. Also I tried changing the CPU for a 66mhz (hey, every little bit helps, right?), but it burned it up. :( So, I returned the 33mhz cpu and it works fine. TIA!

odd keyboard problem

Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2000 21:53:22 -0800 Message-Id: <200011150553.VAA19963(a)mail21.bigmailbox.com> From: "First Name Last Name" <steveaux(a)my-deja.com> Subject: odd keyboard problem ('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Hi! In the middle of a session on pico, ^k (cut) stopped working. AFAIK, all the other combinations with CTRL work but that one. Only if I use the right-hand CTRL key with k (and I have to do this twice) am I able to delete a line. I know I may have to dig deeply into the Keyboard and Console How-to, but on the off-chance someone here has a quick answer or suggestion.... What can I try to fix this? (It _is_ an old (7 years) keyboard. Just break it to me gently that I'll have to have annoying Windows keys on my new keyboard, if it is the case that it's obviously a hardware problem.) Thanks! teve ------------------------------------------------------------ --== Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ ==-- Before you buy.
