I just thought of something while setting up port forwarding on my server.... First I searched google on how to do something like that and came across a howto. I figured thats great and tried to work through it but it was pretty technical and I didn't really have a clue what I was doing. Then I figured there must be some magic debian script that will set it up for me and sure enough, ipmasq does exactly what I want, no knowledge required.
This is all great and thats the main reason I use debian but am I actually learning anything? I've been running debian on my desktop and server for over a year now and know how to configure it quite well but I still dont really feel I know linux. There are so many debian tools that automagically take care of system administration that I think I would be lost without them. While I wouldnt want to give all this up I also wouldn't want to find that what I know about linux is totally useless for any distro other than debian. I really dont have much experience with other linux distros so maybe its not that different but it feels like I'm in a pretty debian-specific world. What do you think, could I get away with putting Linux on my resume or is my debian experience too limited? leo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
