yeah I have. Using mindterm.

I do not know a lot about unix so if you want to know how I did it download the howto and send me an email. I will send you my html and setup files I used to set it up.

PS the mindterm site has some hard to find but useful answers.

Not sure if this is what you want to do, but assuming you want to access your e-smith machine from a client machine then give this a go

http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/

putty is a very popular ssh program which works very well, just don't forget to turn on the ssh access in the e-smith manager, it's disabled by default

As mentioned previously, MindTerm does the job quite nicely.

I have a password protected ibay with the MindTerm files (found at AppGate.Com) and the following index.html file:

Comms now launching...

This window controls the applet and the applet will be terminated once
this window is closed or you leave this page.
        ARCHIVE="mindterm_ns.jar" WIDTH=0 HEIGHT=0>








That way, each time I wish to open a session to the server, I can just open up the ibay's web pages.

Luke

Hi Luke,

Thanks, i have all the needed files in the directory, but something is missing in the httpd.conf, the 'webconsole' ibay does not exist in the statement... why?

That I can't answer.

All I did was add a new ibay through the admin web interface, dumped the various MindTerm files and the aforementioned index.html into the 'html' folder of the ibay and viola... one working page.
