i have tried to install the pacman package using the following command from the putty but no response
some times say target not found
here is the comand line i used
pacman -S z2-sdl-profile 1.0-1
no luck and one more think i read about GUI or interface for the pacman manager listed here
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman_GUI_Frontends
could you please provide me idea on how to instll any of those on pogoplug
i found how to install packages and i have installed the axel as the download manager but one problem i don't know how to download files to usb attached drive.
I know that if I have to download to a specific folder i have to change to that directory using putty and need to run axel from it but i don't know how to change to usb drive
for example my drive is called PUBLIC
and i use cd/user/download/
to go to the download folder in the user section so please could you tell how to do the same for attached hard drive.
One more thing also i found it difficult to type huge download urls from sites like the free account download urls from rapidshare
if I start to type the url surely there is huge chance for mis typing it,so is there any way to overcome this like a copy url from web browser and pasting it on the putty or other wise telling axel to download from urls in a specific text file.

Not sure whether you tried this or not but was looking for some thing after i enable DDNS run a VNC (kinda) and start firefox possible ? I see someone got VNC running but would that make surfing possible using DDNS and using home network connection ? I may hae not described it properly here but let me know whether this is something possible or not.

You don't have to give the version number, just the first part will do ie
provided there is a package called z2-sdl-profile
I think when you connect the USB drive, its mounted by default in /media/.
Just copy the link and right click on putty window, it will paste the URL.
#dinjo
Ya, that should work, but firefox might be a bit heavy, maybe a lighter browser. But why exactly do you want to do this? If you just want to access the home network, I guess you can just do it by setting up a VPN.

So you just want to use your home network to browse to bypass some restrictions on the external network? Basically as a proxy? Then I guess you can use a simple SSH proxy as well

Mate, we can give you pointers but please Google about it and find out how to use it before coming back here and saying it doesn't work. We are trying to help you but please put some effort from your side as well.
In that case, you would need to go for a VNC setup and use a web based client, something like this -- http://www.realvnc.com/support/javavncviewer.html

Ok I'll try to find more info on it may be at arch linux wiki.
Ok VNC is running fine now.
Then add following code to rc.local
Now connect through any vnc viewer and it would be like 192.168.1.104:5900 , replace your IP accordingly.
