I'll go check out the SSLexplorer and see what I can do. I thought I had my hands full re-figuring out how to make smbldap work on my fat client edubuntu workstations and ubuntu server. This adds fuel to the fire -- I only have 6 weeks til school starts. Yikes! If I had no other clients, it wouldn't be so bad. Thanks for the advice. kari<div> <div>On 7/3/07, Dimitri Yioulos <<a href="mailto:dyioulos@firstbhph.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">dyioulos@firstbhph.com</a> > wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">On Tuesday 03 July 2007 2:57 pm, Kari Matthews wrote: > Oh my. > > My new principal says that at his last school, the IT guy had the server > set up so that you could login from anywhere (like home) and have access to > his documents (on the server).

In the FOSS space, you might want to take a look at SSL-Explorer (<a href="http://3sp.com/showsslexplorercommunity.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> 3sp.com/showsslexplorercommunity.com </a>).
