If it really is part of a multi-server render farm, then I am sure you have sufficient resources to equip yourself with a web surfing box that doesn't have this restriction. > I moved to Linux to get away from all this Windows-like "use the latest > version" crap.

Well you chose Deadrat 6.2, what do you expect? I thought the only people using Deadrat these days were people who enjoy the proverbial dependancy nightmare. Its getting to the stage where people on #linux pretty much refuse to help anyone who doesn't use debian for this very reason. Too many people using rpm based distros, and judging linux in general by their experiences. Install debian 2.2, r5 has just been released this week. (Use unstable if you want the latest stuff, its stabler than most distros stable release.) And say goodbye to the dependancy nightmare once and for all. apt-get install konqueror and its done -- Kurt Häusler GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net
