More or less. Some uptime challenges are severely cramping my style. ;) Two problems compounded: 1) Hurd will run for about 4 hours before falling over dead for me. 2) Startup time on the turtle is about 30 minutes. Sometimes it can take up to another hour for it to seek to where it left off. Marcus said he has some ideas for how to improve these, though, which will be god.

I haven't added *all* of the packages to the turtle. Anything that's over a meg in size for source didn't get added. The other problem is that it takes almost 2 hours to generate the HTML and upload it off of my cable connection to people.debian.org. I think I could improve that by not 'scp -R'ing. Apparently piping a tar through ssh is far better, and if someone wants to improve my script: #!/bin/bash ssh -l jbailey www.debian.org rm -rf public_html/oasis/* scp -r /mnt/hurd-disk1/html-dir/* [EMAIL PROTECTED]:public_html/oasis feel free. Oasis will no longer be at my house in 4 days or so, so I'm far more concerned about figure out how I will a) keep it running and b) enable my volunteers to sign packages. (ps - ssh appears to work wonderfully. Is there a trick to getting sshd working? <grin>) Tks, Jeff Bailey
