indeed i have an access server 5300 and a router and i want to use my squid between these .i want to route my access server to cache and then by the gateway of the internet NIC to the router i want that my cache do nat too.

  I have experienced many different forms but it was useless.if it is possible for u .guide me

Transparent Proxy mini-HOWTO

 

Follow that guide, but the critical iptables rule is basically:

Code:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128

  Vista.. from scratch
Posted by: seeno - 2005-09-25, 12:58 PM - Forum: Vista - No Replies


From slashdot:

 

Quote:iliketrash writes "The Wall Street Journal has a long front-page articledescribing how Jim Allchin approached Bill Gates in July, 2004, with the

news that then-Longhorn, now-Vista, was '[0]so complex that its writers

would never be able to make it run properly.' Also, the article says,

'Throughout its history, Microsoft had let thousands of programmers each

produce their own piece of computer code, then stitched it together into

one sprawling program. Now, Mr. Allchin argued, the jig was up. Microsoft

needed to start over.' And start over they did. The article is

astonishing for its frank comments from the principles, including Allchin

and Gates, as well as for its description of Microsoft's cowboy spaghetti

code culture."
 

Thought this is big so if anyone didn't know. The funny part is that the code was "so complex" :P

  Start/Stop Services How-to
Posted by: kingttx - 2005-09-25, 03:05 AM - Forum: Mandriva - No Replies


Mandriva's Control Center has a panel to allow you to view your available services and start or stop them. Please be sure you know which services are needed before you begin making changes, however. Turning off some services is good if you don't use them. Turning off other services could prevent you from using X-Windows.

 

Start/Stop Services

 

Enjoy!

  Adding Panel Objects
Posted by: kingttx - 2005-09-22, 07:48 PM - Forum: Mandriva - Replies (1)


This is rather intuitive, but many folks may not know what is available to place into your panels (you can have more than one, ya know!) :)

 

In this how-to, I'll show how to simply add and remove KWeather from a panel. This how-to will not go into configuring the applet, however.

Enjoy!

  wouldFC4 support pirsm?
Posted by: Oroshi - 2005-09-22, 08:06 AM - Forum: Fedora Core Release 4 - Replies (1)


Hello,

 

as i have got Fedora Core 3 on my laptop, so i was thinking about upgrading, but it on dual boot, windows and Fedora. so if i want to upgrade the Fedora as a fresh copy over write the old one without losing the windows. so i think this possble coz it still bootable coz it load grub 1st if i reformat windows then window will be slefish to boot it self not Linux.

 

okay, Before i do that - I would like to KNOW if it will work on Prism Wireless network (my laptop got that build in) I kept having problem with crappy ndiswapper, it read the access point information fine, when i iwconfigure, some time it conencted fine but mostly it won't connect at all. it annoying me big time. It would be apperactae if you could inform me that will it work on prism wireless on Fedora Core 4 ?

 

Cheers
