Connecting to an SSN from an internal network
Hi
I have an Apache Web server running on a Solaris 8 box that sits on a SSN.
I have one desktop that connects to the SSN from the internal network and is recognised directly without using the gateway, all other desktops, laptops from inside the internal network connect to the SSN using the gateway. I want to allow more than the one desktop direct access to the webserver.
I have added additional desktops to the webservers /etc/hosts file but this does not seem to have any impact.
The reason why I am trying to do this is:
I have an application that restricts access to the website for members only (its not porn). When there is a lockout via the application for all users from our internal network (the users are locked out by a shared external IP address) only the desktop (using its internal IP address) which has direct access to the webserver can then acccess the administration panel of the application. I want more than one user to be able to access the administration panel in the event of a lockout.
Any suggestions as to how to remedy this problem?
Thanks in advance.

gnome-desktop-item-edit(1) User Commands gnome-desktop-item-edit(1)
NAME
gnome-desktop-item-edit - GNOME Desktop file editor
SYNOPSIS
gnome-desktop-item-edit [--create-new] filename
DESCRIPTION
gnome-desktop-item-edit is the GNOME Desktop file editor, which you can use to create or edit the .desktop (known as desktop) file. GNOME
uses a standard desktop file specification as proposed by freedesktop.org. A desktop file consists of a number of name-value pairs that
define how a desktop should organize a particular application. As this is defined as an open standard, integration of applications into
GNOME Desktop is relatively straightforward.
A basic entry in the desktop file must start with a tag called [Desktop Entry]. It can then have a number of name-value pairs as defined by
the standard. The minimum entries are as follows:
Name the name of the application
Comment a textual description of the application which is displayed as a tooltip message by gnome-panel. When set appropri-
ately, the comment can be localized within the same file.
Exec the name of the actual executable
Icon the file name of the icon image
Type the desktop file type
Categories a multi-string field which is used by gnome-panel to group applications into the appropriate categories.
These desktop files provide the information to gnome-panel, which places the application in the appropriate locations on the panel. In
a similar manner, the GNOME file manager (Nautilus) uses information from the desktop files to display the 'applications:///' view.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
--create-new Creates a new .desktop file.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
filename The name of the desktop file to be edited or viewed.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Editing an existing .desktop file
example% gnome-desktop-item-edit fullpath/filename
This command invokes the launcher dialog and loads the contents of the specified desktop file into the relevant fields.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Application exited successfully
>0 Application exited with failure
FILES
The following files are used by this application:
/usr/bin/gnome-desktop-iExecutable for GNOME Desktop file editor
/usr/share/applications/Desktopofile
