I wish I had. You should have seen the firewall there. Wingate proxy telnet server, God help us all. I think I might have eventually got telnet-ssl going, though (since Win98 telnet supports that). >...but essentially, I do the same thing, though I run Debian GNU/Linux >at both work and home.

I'm contemplating upgrading my work box to unstable to match home, but at the moment I'm slightly deterred by the fact that it would be one of the very few glibc-2.2 boxen around and thus binaries I compile there wouldn't run on most of the other GNU/Linux systems. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
