Hello,
does anybody happen to be running NFS between FreeBSD und Linux
successfully and painless?
I've got FreeBSD 3.4S cvsupped xmas or one, maybe two days after,
running as NFS server, while my Linux v2.2.14 box is the client.
On Linux, I mount stuff like this:
$ mount -t nfs -o ro,noauto,us

Hello Debian Users,
I've a computer with a SCSI harddisk and a IDE 10GB Harddisk.
Last Sunday I installed Debian Release 2.1 on my PC.
The Linux partitions are on the SCSI harddisk.
The IDE harddisk provides VFAT partitions.
Debian Linux isn't able to find the VFAT partitions of the IDE harddisk
The CD that came with the book seemed to be alright. It is only
one disk instead of the normal two, and dselect is an old version
but everything seems to work!

Bill,
Corel have a marvellous installer - I can get my laptop to look great with
it but it never even starts X with Debian. However, you do need to
recompile the kernel immediately you decide to stick with Corel because it
loads loads of irrelevenat stuff.

I'm running Corel/Debian v1.0 on a AMD 486-100. 24mb ram, >1G hd,
networked with three other PCs. This workstation is 5X slower then a
486-33 running RH 5.0 acting as a gateway, Samba server, mail, etc. I
welcome any suggestions towards finding what must be a gross
misconfiguration.
On the 486-100

Hi,
I'd like to setup my debian box to do mail server after I
mirrored the potato and installation.
I'd like to know how to forward all the emails from my current
email server to this new potato box?
Here is the current setup:
ISP < email > current mail server(hamm)
Hi,
I'm in the middle of mirroring the potato distribution and
notice that there are about 300+ packages symlink to slink
distribution. Does this mean that I need to mirror slink
also?
Thanks!

It used to be that I could open an eterm, su, and open whatever app
I wanted. Now it complains about not being able to connect to the
display. All of the sudden I need to xhost +localhost as non-root in

The Linux part is formatted for linux and works fine as long as I don't use
the controller card. I'm wondering if Linux just doesn't know about this
kind of card? Bob

if it is not a binary program chances are your trying to run a program
when that is not an executable. if the program is in your $PATH then you
can just r
