i wouldn't say a long way but it's a bit far. i also wanted to raise the point of which is the best file to start the server considering i have a 3200+ athlon barton core.I had figured i686 or the amd start up file was the best. i've tired each of them and haven't really noticed the difference. also i have edited the main start up script a lil good or bad idea. I'm taking it it's basically the same as supplying an option to the start string.
After looking thru it i think we can throw the book of conventions i had out the window and start a fresh. so anyone got any tips for a newbie trying to look good :-P TwoEyedHuman wrote: > As root, > *ln -s /usr/bin/gunzip /usr/bin/uncompress* > > If you plan on running unix servers, I highly recommend reading some > kind of 700 page linux manual on security. > <http://www.amazon.com/Maximum-Linux-Security-Protecting-Workstation/dp/0672316706> > > At least I did.
