I guess it will only work 'normal hours' The SA service is interesting: in Renmark, it allowed two hours per day, but in the other places that I accessed it (Port Augusta, Moonta), it allowed 8 hours. Login is via a web page that comes up when you start your browser (or kick it by entering a non-address). The page has the conditions of use, then a form for username and password. I should have mentioned that the service is free. > you have to 'OK' a web page to access it, for some reason, it won't > work from my Palm, their (SonicWall?) server won't recognize Palm's > browser's 'OK' > > so, I can't use it > > Five Dock doesn't offer wireless (last time I've asked (several years > ago) it was 'due to security issues, you could introduce 'virus' into > our system')) > > sounds like SA is way ahead of the two libraries that I've tried > > > > -- > Voytek > > -- > SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ > Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html > -- Alan L Tyree http://www2.austlii.edu.au/~alan Tel: 04 2748 6206 Fax: +61 2 4782 7092 FWD: 615662 -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
