Only when you're accessing a share is a connection made to the remote computer. This also allows users to mount smb shares using kerberos. fuse-sshfs: A FUSE-filesystem client based on the SSH File Transfer Protocol. On the client side mounting the filesystem is as easy as logging into the server with ssh. fuse-2.5.3-1.SL.i386.rpm fuse-devel-2.5.3-1.SL.i386.rpm fuse-libs-2.5.3-1.SL.i386.rpm fuse-smb-0.8.5-1.i386.rpm fuse-sshfs-1.6-2.SL.i386.rpm kernel-module-fuse-2.6.9-42.0.2.EL-2.5.3-1.SL.i686.rpm kernel-module-fuse-2.6.9-42.0.2.ELhugemem-2.5.3-1.SL.i686.rpm kernel-module-fuse-2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp-2.5.3-1.SL.i686.rpm Intel wireless firmware ipw3945d is needed to control the ipw3945 wireless card kernel-module-ipw3945 is needed because this driver is not in the standard kernel. Note that the installer does NOT know how to enable the 3945 wireless. You will have to add the starting of the /sbin/ipw3945d in your startup scripts. ipw3945-firmware-1.13-2.noarch.rpm ipw3945d-1.7.18-1.i386.rpm kernel-module-ipw3945-2.6.9-42.0.2.EL-1.1.0-pre2.2.SL4.i686.rpm kernel-module-ipw3945-2.6.9-42.0.2.ELhugemem-1.1.0-pre2.2.SL4.i686.rpm kernel-module-ipw3945-2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp-1.1.0-pre2.2.SL4.i686.rpm ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- SL_firefox_parentlock_fix-1.0-9.noarch.rpm Updated to delete .parentlock on exit vs starting Updated to point to 44 vs 40rolling yum-conf-44-1.SL.noarch.rpm sl-release-4.4-4.noarch.rpm Updated hwdata-0.146.23.EL-1.noarch.rpm New security Errata openssh-3.9p1-8.RHEL4.17.i386.rpm openssh-askpass-3.9p1-8.RHEL4.17.i386.rpm openssh-askpass-gnome-3.9p1-8.RHEL4.17.i386.rpm openssh-clients-3.9p1-8.RHEL4.17.i386.rpm openssh-server-3.9p1-8.RHEL4.17.i386.rpm openssl096b-0.9.6b-22.46.i386.rpm openssl-0.9.7a-43.14.i386.rpm openssl-0.9.7a-43.14.i686.rpm openssl-devel-0.9.7a-43.14.i386.rpm openssl-perl-0.9.7a-43.14.i386.rpm squirrelmail-1.4.8-2.el4.noarch.rpm
