Re: [LUG] Smoothwall Web Access

[Rick Timmis <rick@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for all the swift responses, Managed to get some docs from Smoothwall.
Weird one though I have always been able to connect to it on port 81, but
it was having none of it this morning. Managed to https on port 445 in the
end. I have set Smoothwall to hold a persistent connection and reconnect
on restart now. So hopefully we wont have the problem again.

All I have got to do now is sort out Samba shares for a couple a Windows
machines so the users with laptops can share the printers and part of the
Linux file system.

Thanks Ricki
