Recommended Posts

[Newbie in the house]

Well the topic-title says it . I want to set/start a proxy on my server so my Sis's client PC can connect Internet. On windown .. oops windoze.. damit.. windows Xp i used AnologX Proxy. So, what can i use for Linux .

Also , i am guessing there must be Proxy app in RH9 CDs (i hav all three) .. If yes , please tell.

Kyro :) .

OK i think i shuld make the scenario more clear. or maybe i want to bump .. maybe both

here is the deal:-

I hav 2 NICS on my PC (Server). Intel {Nic1} and Dlink {Nic2}. NIC1 is connected to net through cable Modem. Nic 2 is connected peer to peer on Client pc which has realtek Nic.

After running AnalogX proxys server. i goto client, use lan confiiguration in IE to configure my proxy address and browse net from there.

thats the whole deal i want to Emulate on Redhat 9 (server) and Mandrake 9.1/WindowsServer2003 (client).

And will Redhats ICS work here. should try it ..BRB

Yes what your trying to do can be done with Redhat - and everything you need is on the 3 CDs. But have you thought of just buying a dsl/cable router? They can be found for less than $50 US

The setup will be simple, you will no longer be tied to having to have one machine on for another to access the net. Which will allow for you to play with different OSs reboot at will, leave machine down for extended periods while playing with it, etc.. etc.. You will be more secure, since only ports you say to be open will be forwarded to any of the machines on your lan.

If still looking to get the speed boost and logging you can get from running a proxy - this still can be done, etc.. etc..

I would think that anyone that can afford high speed access, and multiple machines - should be able to afford a router.

Budman , your are very right ...

To answer .. ya i can afford router .. but always think Should I , Do i really need it , Is it over kill , and after some wise words from friends and pals like you .. get it :) .. will tell u how it goes ;)

Prob solved guys. I am an absolute Newbie (in terms of installing , bash commands , configuring servies , loading services, configuring firewall and all this things) .

I struggled real hard with IP tables and Squid (using webmin). But my Friend (a linux guru) came to my house .. removed Iptables and Installed IP chains , then he telnet-downloaded a Ip mascareding script and configured the eTH's(Nic) settings. Viola ! .. *SWEET* .. my Sis can browse net through the other machine now. without a proxy man.

Man , was he (my friend) smoking bash commands in front of me .. I hav so much to learn.

Kyro. :) (smiles and lives happily after)Two bombs, not one, went off in BEST bus number 340 at Ghatkopar last night, the Mumbai police suspect.

?Early evidence suggests one of the bombs was hidden below the last seat on the right side and the other beneath the last seat on the left,? said Senior Police Inspector Jalinder Khandagale of the Bomb Detection and Disposal Squad.

The question on their minds now is how the blast perpetrators succeeded in detonating the two explosives at the same moment, Khandagale said.

Bombs identical to those in Vile Parle, Mulund blasts

Two people died in yesterday?s explosion in a BEST bus on Lal Bahadur Shastri Marg, Ghatkopar, while over 30 were injured.

Senior Police Inspector Jalinder Khandagale of the Bomb Detection and Disposal Squad (BDDS) said the bombs used were improvised explosive devices (IEDs), which had also been used in the Vile Parle blast on January 27 and the Mulund train explosion on March 13 this year.

Ghatkopar bomb blast: Photo Essay

IEDs are sophisticated bombs manufactured from commonly available chemicals, namely, potassium chlorate, potassium nitrate, potassium permanganate and ammonium nitrite, which act as an ?oxidiser.? Materials like sulphur, aluminum powder, arsenic sulphide, charcoal and sugar in finely powdered form act as ?fuel? for the oxidiser.

The ?oxidiser? and ?fuel? are mixed in an equal ratio to form an explosive mixture. Concentrated sulphuric acid is used to initiate the explosive charge.

Another BDDS officer said, ?Ammonium nitrate and gelatin sticks seem to be among the components of the bomb. We have handed over the burned articles from the blast site to the forensics department. The report will be complete today.?

The BDDS, however, is not yet sure of the splinters used in yesterday?s explosion.

?The rear of the bus was completely destroyed due to the explosion, but the middle and front were not badly damaged. Yet the intensity of the explosion was such that a motorcylist following the bus was thrown 15 feet away by its sheer force,? Khandagale pointed out.

    • It's very pretty, IMO. I've always loved the Windows 7-style of UI design. 7 was the prettiest Windows ever. I'd love Microsoft to be THIS consistent and I'd love them to return to that.
    • Here are the Macs that support macOS 26 Tahoe by Taras Buria In addition to iOS 26, iPadOS 26, watchOS 26, and tvOS 26, Apple announced macOS 26 Tahoe, a new desktop operating system. Like the other operating systems made in Cupertino, macOS Tahoe features a redesigned UI with Liquid Glass, translucent icons, and other visual upgrades. There are also plenty of new features, such as a new Phone app for Mac, Live Activities on Mac, a massive Spotlight update, and a lot more. However, not all Mac owners will get to enjoy macOS 26. Like with iOS and iPadOS, Apple is dropping a few Macs with the release of macOS 26. You will be able to update to the new operating system if you own one of the following Apple computers. MacBook Air M1 and newer MacBook Pro M1 and newer MacBook Pro 13-inch 2020 (four Thunderbolt 3 ports) and newer MacBook Pro 16-inch 2019 iMac 2020 and newer Mac mini 2020 and newer Mac Studio 2022 and newer Mac Pro 2019 and newer Note that although Apple still supports Intel-based Macs, not all features will be available on systems that do not have Apple Silicon chips. Now-unsupported Macs that cannot upgrade from macOS Sequoia to macOS Tahoe are the following computers with Intel processors: Intel-based iMac 2019 Intel-based Mac mini 2018 iMac Pro Intel-based MacBook Air 2020 Intel-based MacBook Pro 2018 macOS 26 Tahoe is now available for developers to try in the beta program. Apple plans to launch the first public beta in July, alongside the release of public betas of iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and other operating systems that the company announced earlier today. You can find all the new features in macOS 26 Tahoe on the official Apple website.
    • I hope Microsoft goes back to the Fisher Price XP look first.
    • >It is a fundamental change to how macOS looks and feels, which some Neowin readers are definitely not a fan of. Hehe. You link to one of my posts here, but I actually LOVE glass effects and have spent the last decade or so hacking Windows to be more like Vista's Aero Glass, etc. Not sure why you thought my post implied I didn't like it. I was referring more to Apple copying this from Windows. I wish MS would being more glass/acrylic/mica to W11 ASAP! Maybe they will...by copying Apple this time.
