Hi there,

How do I go about forbiding lynx browsing the local file system?

You should be able to do that using the -restrictions option, e.g.

        lynx -restrictions=dired_support

I'm setting up an open access box for people to remotely test their
websites, and do not want users doing the likes of:
$ lynx /etc/passwd

I have messed about with ~/.lynxrc
RULE:Fail file:*
RULE:Fail /*

No success.

I also tried a shell alias of: lynx='lynx http://' to no effect.

Any suggestions?
