Thinstation 2.3beta1

Hi All,

As below.  Better late than never.

Notes of interest, sessions are no longer running as root.

Check out new www interface.

NX3.0 support, (Mike needs to place the NX3.0 binary in the correct path for it to work however).

Files are uploading now, so may not be ready until tomorrow morning.

Source will follow in a few days.

Cheers

Miles

The NX 3.0 binary is in place by now. The download speed may be somewhat slow as my telco is a bunch of #¤%&/().

Hmm - I see. I think there is some serious DNS problems right now:
thinstation.net/org is supposed to be at 83.89.72.98, but wget reports 149.6.48.253. How on earth wget finds anything is beyond me... Let's see if time solves this. It's sunday night around here, so...
