Nice story, but Lynx != Links :)

Unless of course he's got Lynx confused with ELinks, which I feel like is bundled with most RHEL/CentOS deployments. I became acquainted with it on a previous job that included the nightmare of trying to help remote customers setup printers via the CUPS interface when I only had SSH access to their box.

You could do port forwarding...

Or X forwarding to use a nice(?) GUI printer config tool (or run Firefox or Surf or whatever) if those are already on the remote machine.

Depends a lot on the connection speed though - sometimes, I've found it's faster not to go down this route.

Ah, good old links2 -g
