Win XP - Linux

[ozmaen]

Hi,

My ISP has just swaped my VPN/Router for a Linux box
because the VPN/Router was having probs.

The Linux box acts as the Router/Wireless VPN
connection/Firewall

Is these a way to use IE to access the Linux Box config,
or will I have to use some form of shell program to talk
to the BOX.

Given that you have not supplied any info regarding your ISP or Linux
configuration, I guess you should ask your ISP.

It may be that the box has a web frontend, or not. You could try if you
know what port to use. Or you could try the default port
http://yourlinuxboxipaddress/. Or you could try telnet to the box, or ssh
to the box.

In addition to if this is arouter 9 times out of 10 an ISP doesn't let a
customer boondangle with the device anyway.
