It is possible by editing the inittab (/etc/inittab) but it will set a pb if you need a password to set the connection, 2 solutions: * set up the away box so as it doesn't ask for a password * use the right command line option to hardcode the password in the inittab *** ATTENTION *** the second way is *very* piggy. Your inittab is usually world readable. So every one can read your password. Use it just in last resort, for test purposes. *** ATTENTION *** I think there is a way to disable password for the server by editing a authorizedkeys file (+ chmod 600) but I don't know more. > > thanx in advance. > > Shri Hope this will be a first step in the right direction Jacques > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Listen to your Yahoo!
