Well, I have magicfilter and all that configured and running properly.

Don't complain if it doesn't work for you and better fix it. You'll find

Daniel,
I think this is a kernel issue, and more specifically related to
multiprocessing (using more than a single cpu.) You might ask in the

You are on the right way. ghostscript is used by a print filter
(apsfilter, magicfilter or lprng) to translate PostScript for your
non-PostScript printer.
If you will print HTML, you can use Jan Karrman's html2ps. It's possible,
that Netscape itself use this nifty utility.

Hello Debian Land...
I am trying to set up NFS between to Debian Linux 'Hamm' boxes.
I have followed all the instructions in the NFS Howto, but
always run into a permissions problem.

A nice little web mirroring package is 'wget'. This is only a
few hundred K and runs just from the command line.
You basically tell it what site you want to copy and off it
goes... It can follow recursive links to any level that you
specify.
P.s. I hope you dont break copyright
