Just realised a default Lenny install didn't provide "sshd"
Not what I expected!
I will install heaps more on the Lenny machine & perhaps I maybe satisfied.
Hi all
How much better are the more expensive 3G plans over the cheaper plans?
I have just tried out a 3G broadband dongle on linux
Model : E160
I tried to get it to work on Centos 5.3 but failed..... couldn't get
"usb_modeswitch" to give a "/dev/USB0" .
However tried on Debians "LENNY" and was it was trivial to get online
using the E160.
(just needed the dial string)
I tried the 1Gig residential plan & found it wanting.
The dialup PPP connection ONLY allows 4 incoming ports it seems.
Among other Apps, I would like to remotely connect via SSH.
Do the higher priced plans have less retrictions ?
Do the higher priced plans support SSH?
I found only 4 ports open. as below .............
r...@debian:~# netstat -an | grep "LISTEN "
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:34376 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:111 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:631 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
TIA for any comments
