rogerh Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Hello, Just loaded 2010.2, and am having problems with accessing web pages. I have the firewall off, and seem to have no problems with pages that are not secure. Secure log-in pages, such as for eBay, won't load. I can get some of them finally with Chromium (in an unformatted state), but none at all with Firefox. Not sure if it is a security set-up issue, or if there are some plug-ins that are required. Do I need to add user permissions, or alter the setup in some way? I was running 2008 previously, and did not have this problem. Suggestions appreciated. I think I am most of the way there on this install, but have a few bumps to get over to get the system really usable. Thanks -- Roger [moved from Installing Mandriva by spinynorman] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogerh Posted January 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Hello, It was not set at standard, but is now. Still have the same problem, though. I actually found a post from several years ago about having to change the max system MTU from 1500 to 1492 in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 to make my modem work. Forgot how to file edit and use kdesu, so some homework will be necessary...... thanks -- Roger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerh Posted January 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Hello, Changing the MTU rate has resolved my access problems. Thanks for suggesting checking the security, since MSEC was unselected (off). Regards -- Roger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
