[Trinux-talk] Re: Can't download programs

[Ben B. <ben...@ho...>]

Hello,

Thank you for the replies.
I have managed to load my packages from some floppies now. I deleted the 
dhcp file from /tux/options and put an empty file with the name floppy in 
there. So I am able to test the windows computer now.

I have tried the first step that you suggested Yuval but it didn't work. 
Trinux tries to connect to the server but doesn't download packages and goes 
on with loading trinux without an error message. I tried to load with  the 
default setting of the pkglist file, so that I'm pretty sure that I didn't 
try to load too many programs like Tim notified me about.

I'm sure the second step with Apache will work, but I don't want to decrease 
the security of the windows computer, and loading the packages from floppies 
works now, so it isn't really nescesarry anymore. It would be nice if I 
could enter the internet though. There is an proxy server running on the 
windows computer to share the internet with the other computer that is on 
the network. Can I use the proxyserver to share my connection with trinux 
pherhaps?
It would be nice if this could be solved.

Thank you for any other suggestions.

Ben
