Comments about your setup:
1) NIS is already lightweight itself. It will matter a little if you use
LDAP.
2) I dont think your NFS is to blame. I have seen a setup worse than 40
students, using an older server and things work fine. Thoug if your NFS
support cache, it can speed up file access.

Default snort configuration is really paranoid. It makes snort logs really

btw, would it be wise to put the blocking factor as it can make your

A driver in kernel space not working properly. You can deduce which one by
viewing /var/log/kern.log if klogd is running.

In order to get .o which is the driver object/module file that you can
load using insmod or modprobe is by compiling your .c and .h files. There
must be a makefile or autoconfig script when you downloaded your driver
files.
Alternatively, as far as I know, driver module for 3c905b can be compile

PLCs for under 10K. Target is mainly home automation. These cheap PLCs can be

making your kernel preemptible. It will just add unnecessary complication.
