Hi,
A lot of unofficial repositories use trivial repository format which
makes it impossible to do apt-pinning for their packages.
Here is the link that tells the general idea about apt-pinning:

binaries) needs to be authorized and authenticated. Linux is no

You should not use Debian. Find a less geek-oriented distro. We
won't mind. Honestly.
Heh heh - I was waiting for an email like this. Et tu, Ron? ;)
First off, I was talking about a distro that non-techies could use. My
initial inquiry was (to paraphrase):

Hi,
Here is something I find quite peculiar.
I have 2 boxes, one of which is called remotebox, the other
'localbox'.
I have mounted a partition called '/data' of 'remotebox'
on 'localbox' over shfs (SSH File System).
'remotebox' is RH9 (Shrike)
'localbox' is Debian 3.1
When I check for partition us
I am trying to create a hardlink to a remote directory
but it gets rejected --even when I am doing it as root.
When I issue
ln -d
where "remote_folder_path" does exist.
This is the error message I get:
"Invalid cross-device link"
What am I doing wrong?
Cheers,
Ray

Try PowerCockpit.
Allows you to copy an image of the original workstation (to a file) then deploy the image to another machine (which may be dissimilar).
Are you sure it supports Debian?

It's got 3 NICs.

Is there a way of doing this in a more integrated way;

These are considered "trivial" repositories and don't support pinning.
That is why you have to add the trailing slash. It's not a release but
an actual directory name.
You can check the Debian manual for a more in depth explanation of what
the difference is.
