Hi, My brother got Red hat 7.3 installed at
Dude, read the kernel compile howto, you can
cause a LOT of problems by missing steps, my
favourite one is people who edit their lilo.conf
and don't re-run lilo before they reboot, splat!
p.s. make a boot floppy first!

Also, something that nobody has mentioned and is very
useful is the linux documentation project http://www.linuxdoc.org

New Zealand is too buddy buddy with America these days,
I doubt we could make such a move without the trade
situation getting very hard for us with the US.

I use postnuke on my website: http://www.jeremyb.net
it's a fork of phpnuke, better imho. It comes down to
how you set it up, sounds a bit like you need more of
a knowledge base, check that theres not a module available
for nuke for doing that kind of stuff as it does everything
else you want
Just had a thought...
Adding phpBB2 might be useful, forums can often be
a simple way to institute a knowledgebase if no other
software is available.

It possibly needs re-seating in it's slot, it
could have moved slightly in transit or when you
were putting the nic in, I'd suggest you pull it
out and slip it back in again, I've had weirder
problems caused by simple things like that :-).

Why not run your php script from the cmd line and pipe
it to htmltops? that way you can control the formatting
better :-)

Looks like a competitor to Lindows, very XP'ish,
would be a good environment for people who could
never grok linux and just wanted to do stuff, rather
than spend hours setting things up.
The company that makes it has an amusing
You'll need your isp's dns servers listed in
/etc/resolv.conf for name resolving, is the
gateway box only going to be used as a firewall?
asking because it may be simpler to just run
smoothwall / ipcop and then you have a nice
web based admin console to do all the work for
you :-).

a default one that gets
created after dialing up you won't be able to do any
dns resolves or reach anything but the other end of
the ppp link.

It's odd that Sun are releasing a new version of
solaris for intel as well as a linux distro, still
they must know what they're doing :-).
