Re: A place for data?

Samba. We created a directory under /home and put the database there. It's nice because the database is backed up with all user's home directories everyday. I prefer to put local binaries in the /usr/local hierarchy, not data. E.- -- Eloy A. Paris Information Technology Department Rockwell

Re: Show me the money Re: Donations to Debian

or rex-updates and find there all the updated packages. Now, the bo-updates directory has packages that are being tested but are not part of the main distribution yet. When something is released it goes to bo (stable). I don't know, it just that I don't feel confortable with that... E.- -- Eloy
