It is not a rule, but if you want to keep your system oand config files

Hi all,
I have been a longtime user of RedHat and installed Debian 2.2r2 today. I
have a few queries-
1. I have a dial-up connection so its not possible for me to d/l huge
binaries. I have the RHL 7 cd, n it has XFree86 4.0.1.rpm, can i use this 2

I am running Debian 'unstable', but with inn2 from 'testing'. Since newsx
doesn't work with inn2 2.3 yet (and I need newsx), I am still using inn2
version 2.2.2.2000.01.31-4.1. But since I installed the bind9 packages, I
get tons of messages like this in my log files:

I don't actually know about file sizes, and I don't have an installation
currently - sorry. When last I worked with VMWare, the free downloads were
time-limited. But again, that's been a while.
