So ask yourself why you are not allowed to do this? BTW, if you try to break company policy, you are likely to get terminated from your job. If I was your admin, I would be taking up this matter with senior management and taking steps to get you fired. If you cannot work wthout YM or other facilities, take the matter up with management and get the policy changed. >& every time i start my browser & give a URL ..squid asks me for a login & >passwd which is similar to the official mail id i have as squid & the mail >server r running on the same server.. is there any way i could bypass that >authorization or save the passwd .. coz in win2000 the "remember passwd" >& "save passwd" really doesnt save it for the next use.. No, you do not have that choice. That is asked by squid, which will force authentication.

RE: [ILUG-BOM] Telnet Server

Hi Guys! Thanks for your help, all of you. I got around the problem. It turned out to be a trivial solution. I forgot to set the firewall setting. I set that to allow telnet and bingo! Any idea how do I allow root access via telnet? I am very much a newbie in Linux, so please forgive my trivial questions. :) Thanks and regards, Shailesh. > On Thu, 6 Sep 2001, shailesh bhate wrote: > > > Now, I can telnet from the same m/c but not from any other m/c. > > Did you check your tcpd wrappers? ipchains rules? > > -- > Don't drink when you drive -- you might hit a bump and spill it. > > > Visit my webpage at http://www.ncst.ernet.in/~philip/ > Read my writings at http://www.ncst.ernet.in/~philip/writings/ > > MSN philiptellis Yahoo! philiptellis > AIM philiptellis ICQ 129711328 > > _______________________________________________ > Next Online IRC LUG Meet on 31st Aug @ 4:30pm > http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers > >

From what you say, i think the server has disabled you from getting any outside access. check your gateway settings if they are proper. Regards, Noel.

Proxy restrictions
by shahazad＠linuxplanet.nu 06 Sep '01

06 Sep '01

Hi guys, recently in my company the sys admin has setup a squid proxy which is now restricting me to access yahoo messnger & other services like ftp, telnet etc. it is only allowing http on 8080. before my network didnt have a proxy & all requests were going to the router so i could directly ping or telnet any server as if i was directly connected to the net. but now as i am behind a proxy i cannot use any service like telnet or ftp .. & if i telnet to my local proxy & verify my login it logs me in but as no shell is provided i get disconnected .. basically all this is done so that we dont waste the bandwidth or misuse it... huh .. now what i want to do is i want to run yahoo messenger/icq, telnet, ftp .. i have used Kiwibox for chat but i want to connect through my usual yahoo messger/icq ..so how do i go about it ...? my office proxy is --> Squid/2.3.STABLE4 .. I am also unable to check my other POP3's except my official one .. so is there any way .. i could some how tweak or do something to enjoy these services .. ;-) Thanx in advance cheers~ </shahazad> -- Get your firstname@lastname email for FREE at http://Nameplanet.com/?su
