However, I found with my N95 phone lots of free WLAN hotspots. The hotspots refused me logging into my server using SSH as I have configured a non-standard port for SSH for security reasons. Without knowing the costs, I used the GPRS internet access of my German phone provider (yes, I had to pay roaming fees). </p> +<a href="https://buetow.org/gemfeed/2008-12-29-using-my-nokia-n95-for-fixing-my-mta/nokia-n95.jpg"><img alt="Picture of a Nokia N95" title="Picture of a Nokia N95" src="https://buetow.org/gemfeed/2008-12-29-using-my-nokia-n95-for-fixing-my-mta/nokia-n95.jpg" /></a><br /> +<p>With Putty for N95 and configuring Postfix with Vim and the T9 input mechanism, I managed to fix the problem.

My next mobile phone MUST have a full QWERTY keyboard. This would have made my life lots easier. :)</p> +<p>At the moment I am in Sofia, Bulgaria. Here I can use at least an unprotected WLAN hotspot which belongs to one of the neighbours which I don’t know in person, and it is not blocking any port at all :)</p> +<p>E-Mail me your thoughts at comments@mx.buetow.org!</p> + </div> + </content> + </entry> + <entry> <title>Perl Poetry</title> <link href="https://buetow.org/gemfeed/2008-06-26-perl-poetry.html" /> <id>https://buetow.org/gemfeed/2008-06-26-perl-poetry.html</id> |
