Hi,
I am using « ssh » (secure shell) to maintain wims-servers from the internet/intranet.
This because I'm not to keen on the html-interface via « WIMS gestion du site en ligne » …
To use « ssh » , port 22 should be open on the firewall,
you should have an account on the server;
and you should have « sudo » access to the « wims » account on the server
(e.g. the command « sudo su – wims » will make you « user wims » )
This will give you a non-graphic interface (a terminal & shell) to interact with « wims ».
A very potent filemanager in a terminal is « mc » (midnight commander).
Ofcourse if your bandwidth is high enough , you could start a full blown graphical session ;e.g. with all kinds of windows and buttons etc to maintain the home directory of « wims »
(but I'm not sure if I understand the problem…)
kind regards,
joke
