Help with ssh 1 & 2

I've been attempting to get ssh up and running and can't seem to grasp it. If I'm understanding it correctly, I need sshd running on my server in order for clients to connect. I suppose I need to install a client as well (on server). I did install sshd2 from the SuSE ftp site and I have had it running but have yet to get anything to connect to it. I'm trying to use Nifty telnet (the secure version on Mac) but I believe it's ssh1. SO... how do set up ssh2 to support both 1 and 2? Do I need 1 and 2 both running on my server? and what do I do about making a key? (do I put it in my home directory?) TIA, Spunk

From: Jonathan Drews <j.e.drews(a)worldnet.att.net> Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2000 17:31:32 -0600 Message-Id: <00111117422800.01375@linux> Subject: Fix for Lynx Hello: Lynx does not work properly because it's /usr/lib/lynx.cfg file has the wrong enteries. SYMPTOM: Lynx just won't start. TO FIX: Edit the /usr/lib/lynx.cfg file like so: Was: # STARTFILE is the default starting URL if none is specified # on the command line or via a WWW_HOME environment variable; # Lynx will refuse to start without a starting URL of some kind. -----------------<snip>-------------------------- # Normally we expect you will connect to a remote site, e.g., the Lynx starting # site: STARTFILE:file://localhost/usr/doc/packages/lynx/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html Should Be: STARTFILE:file:/usr/share/doc/packages/lynx/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html And for the help file section of lynx.cfg: Was: HELPFILE:file://localhost/usr/doc/packages/lynx/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html Should Be: HELPFILE:file:/usr/share/doc/packages/lynx/lynx_help/lynx_help_main.html Lynx should now run correctly.

Epson Photo 750, Ghostscript and AppleTalk

From: "David Bottrill" <david.bottrill(a)ntlworld.com> Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2000 22:05:23 -0000 Message-ID: <LAEPKHGANHIFKPAGMGLCEECACOAA.david.bottrill(a)ntlworld.com> Subject: Epson Photo 750, Ghostscript and AppleTalk Guys, I've managed to get my Epson Photo 750 working quite well under SuSE 7. I have been interested for quite a while in using Ghostscript to provide a Postscript interface to the printer from my MAC. Well it works, I configured the printer using YAST2, installed NETATALK configured papd.conf and hey presto I can now print to the printer using the Apple Postscript 2 driver. The results are a little indeterminate at the moment so what I want to know is has anybody developed a PPD file to configure the postscript driver for this combination or has anybody done any tuning for this combination. <p>David
