Hi,

And available for Centos 5.2....

To my amazement, the vncserver that comes with Centos does not do IPv6. Or at least the Xvnc option of -intransport that is mentioned for the commercial version does not work with it. And so far I have not gotten tightVNC to run, looks like it is looking for its X11 fonts where Centos 4 kept them. I do need a remote console tool, and FreeNX sues SSH (see below)

seems like we still need the LSI support ;)

Apache seems to listen on IPv6, but Firefox 3 is not working right. I almost wonder if this is some 'security feature' kicking in with the HIP wrapper (hipconf run normal).

There are three things that could go wrong with firefox in CentOS. CentOS could be using:

1. Selinux
2. App armor
3. LD_PRELOADing for firefox
4. Hardened system

I have disabled selinux in my system from /etc/selinux/config. I am quite sure that the problem is not selinux. I don't know yet about the rest.

SSH is no fun, why run a full secuity program over a security protocol? :) So I suppose I should switch to Telnet instead; pretty much the same functionality. Though FTP to replace SCP? Wonder how gFTP will work. Should also be interesting to see how SAMBA will work.

Yep!
