Sorry to bother you about this trivial question, but I couldn't find any
detail, authorised & satisfactory answers whether from Google search for
"pap v chap" or "pap vs chap" or even within the context of several
HOWTOs, e.g. PPP-HOWTO.

Hi! need your help again!
Floppy installation of Debian was almost successfully finished, but the
SUN box was not able to boot directly from the hard disk to continue the
second part of installation.
I have consulted the docs "Installing Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 For SPARC"
and "OpenBoot 3.x Command R

question I would like to ask:
What is the max number of users supported and whether every user needs
to have an account on that box?

Oh...I don't have a 'STOP' key on my Generic 105-key International

Is there any equivalence, like Esc, Ctrl or Alt, etc?

I know Debian Potato 2.2 was released yesterdady. Is there a CD image
for SPARC I can download from the Internet?
Could anyone suggest any handy GNU utilities that can investigate the
usage of the bandwidth of a network?
Thanks.

Linux on a Sun UltraSparc IIi?
I download the 1.44 floppy image for sparc (rescue, root, driver and
base) rom a mirror site, but the box did not boot the rescue disk.
Thanks for all your sharing.
Can lilo installed on MBR of the 2nd HD handle dual boot at boot time?
If yes, how?

Maybe this is not quite a relevant question should be posted on this
mailing list, but I'd be very grateful if anyone can give me quick &
correct answers to the following questions:
Q.1/ I have a mail server running Debian/GNU Linux Potato 2.2 w/ kernel
2.2.15. Is there any open source utilities
Just a quick question:
When performing NFS/NIS-like automount functions, which utility is
better - amd or autofs? In what sense?
Thanks.

Good point!
Does anyone know how hdparm works? How accurate (in what sense) does
the figure reflect the performance (esp data read-write access rate) of
a tested hard drive?
