This is not something Linux does. It is one of your applications. Find
out which one and stop running it.

Could some knowledgeable people write a mtrr mini HOWTO with real (not
theoretical) examples for each supported processor, comprehensive but
not too technical, understandable for those who can't read the source
code ?
I have been trying to set up MTRRs for K6-III for a while, but am always
in doubt whether the setup is properly done or not.

By the way, there is such thing as ECDL (European Computer Driving
Licence). Don't know about the other regions.

People are not required by law to have CDLs to browse web or
use Word Perfect for their own purposes, just as people are not
required to have drivers' licences to drive in a private farm.
ECDLs are considered some kind of certification that the person
really can do some thing he claims (for example, using word processor).
It seems that in our region most companies will look for ECDL-d
people in a year or so. (Even my old school required a teacher
(she used to teach kids mswnt and msoffice ... I don't know what
the subject is called in English, but it's not compsci) to get at
least 4 ECDL modules or quit :) And, there are companies with a
policy to raise the support price by 20-30% if the person to be
supported haven't passed specific ECDL modules.
Not following rules in driving can cause death or injury to other
drivers, yes. And not following rules in computing can cause
loss of data and/or money. And sometimes death too ...
(a case comes into mind where every patient put into a certain
bed in a certain room in a hospital (was it in England?) died
in the night before Friday. The reason: a room-tidier came
every Friday 6 a. m., unplugged the patient's life-tracking system
from wall outlet and plugged the vacuum-cleaner in.)

Depends on region. When there are no icy weather, then there
is no need to know how to drive in icy weather to be
a car literate.
Apparently most licenced drivers know how to get from point A to
point B, no matter what weather. Otherwise, there were
much more car wreckages. Can you name an area where
50%+ drivers have caused traffic accidents? Please ignore
the African countries where are only three cars, two of which
bumped into each other the second day they came inside the
country.

Ahem ... why is it not enough to know how to write A, L and O
to call oneself writing literate?
If you know how to send emails, you can call yourself email literate.
If you know how to write resumes, you can call yourself word processing
literate.
If you know how to do taxes, you can call yourself taxpaying literate.
But if you don't know what to do in special cases that happen, such
as a virus accident or BSOD on MSOSed PCs or the `Quota exceeded'
message on a multiuser-OS, then you are not computer literate.
IMhO, these are quite normal cases.

No, not really.
So you removed Telnet but left in imapd and rshd? If I were you, I'd
comment out everything from /etc/inetd.conf and then only add in
services that you know you need.
You'll also need to reinstall the box *whilst you're offline*. The
modified files changed many of the system commands like login and so-on
so that the hacker can get back in again. You'll need to put that
right, and the only really safe way is to scrub the box and start again.
You should also check the Redhat errata to upgrade the components that
the hacker exploited. If you're still using the original 5.1 components
then you'll need to upgrade a fair few bits, especially imapd if you
need that.
Some of his actions were obvious, but that doesn't mean that others
were.

No, Debian GNU/Hurd. The Debian Linux' full name is `Debian GNU/Linux'.
On the other hand, it would not be quite impossible to have a single
Debian operating system which allows you to choose which kernel
to use. Diversity in unity :)

You should try to do the absolute minimum possible as root. If you
work as a regular user, then the system can protect you from many
mistakes - you might damage your own data, but you are unlikely to
take out the entire system. As root, most protections are disabled.
Some of programs will actually refuse to run as root.

That line should be either
printf("hello");
or
fprintf(stdout, "hello");
You probably also want a newline at the end of the string.

The reason nothing gets displayed is the error pointed out above. The
reason you get logged out is that you execed it. Exec doesn't just
run the program - it replaces the shell with the program. As a
result, when your program fininshes, so does your login session. Miss
out the exec and you'll be fine.

If you mean which package, then you need to tell us which distribution
you are using. For RedHat, it's in the same RPM as the IMAP server
(search for IMAP in the name of the RPM if you're having trouble
finding it). There is a selection included in Debian - see
http://www.debian.org/Packages/stable/net/ .

You really need to specify a lot more information than that. What MTA
you are using for a start, and some details of the errors and relevant
configuration. You probably need to configure the list of domains
which your MTA knows are local.
> 3) Anyone know an ftp site where I could get SSH for linux?
Somewhere under ftp://ftp.replay.com/pub/crypto - the source should be
there, as should RPMs. For Debian, the package is on
non-us.debian.org (accessable via FTP or HTTP).

Odd. I had an ATI Rage IIc 4Mb PCI card, and it worked like a charm. No
problems at all. (Mind you, I used xf86config to set it up.) I don't use it
now due to a forced motherboard upgrade ... I now use an 8Mb ATI Rage Pro
Turbo AGP card.

What if all the top X military and economic powers were all
in Europe? According to your definition a European War would
then become a world war.
But, let's go with your definition.
Q. When was the First World War?
A. Sometime in the Napoleonic Era.
