Hi,
Would it be feasible to hire one or more full time developer to spend
all their time ironing out the release critical bugs?
How much would this developer need to get paid?
Any ideas as to whether people would be willing to commit a certain
amount of annual donations to this etc. would also b

Hello wise people of debian-user,
Apologies for the off-topic post but in my experience, debian-user seems
to encompass the more intelligent of the human species and seem to be
able to answer almost any question.

Hi Carl
dhclient works with 2.4 for me. You might just need to upgrade the package.
Also make sure that the correct options are enabled in the kernel. Im not sure
about all of them but you need at least socket filtering (I think).
Hope this helps,

Hi All,
firstly, these are just my opinions so lets not start a war.
I think most of us would agree that linux is not the easiest to use and in X,
it is not the fastest and still not near the ease of use of windows - Mozilla

Hi Mike,
several people including myself. There is a package that you need to
install manually - I think its db2 something (it was early in the
morning when i was doing this). try doing a search with google on
libdb2.so.3 - gives you some pointers if that doesnt work.
Hope this helps

Hi All,
How can I get all my linux machines to "log into" one linux box ?
like you can with NT - get all the workstations to log into one

NT offers ? Is there something else that may be better or easier to

I had the same problem while doing exactly the same thing last week.
Unfortunately, cant remember exactly how it was solved. There is a
package in /var/cache/apt/archives that needs to installed manually
using dpkg. I think it was a libc package or a db2 something.
you can just do
dpkg -i
sorr
you need to say yes to experimental stuff - I think its the first
question.

make sure you have configured zonealarm to see your debian system as
part of the intranet and make sure your intranet security level is no
higher than medium.
you can set you local addresses using a mask like 192.168.0.0 netmask
