Hi,
I currently are running debian 1.3 (bo) and I am desperately trying
to upgrade to a newer version (lib6). I have installed the lib5 version of
apt-get (0.1.5) and have been able to get apt-get to talk to
ftp.debian.org. However when I run 'apt-get update' to update the package

I have read the SSH FAQ(s) and can not find the solution to this problem.
I am getting this error when trying to make a remote ssh connection as any
user other than root:
Agent parent directory is not sticky, mode is 40777 it should be 041777
Can someone please help me fix this problem?

it seems that it saves .config somewher

Hi, folks
Yesterday I installed Debian 2.1 without problems. In order to enjoy of
music I configured my audio card (by recompiling the kernel). However
when I tried tkscd on KDE with an audio CD, it did'n work. I searched
for causes and I found the following message:

Hi all. I got a question about security.
I'm currently running libc2.0.7u, with 2.2.11 kernel, and apache.
