;-) 31 yrs banging electronics, both analog and digital, 26 yrs with microprocessors. That, my dear op is a HUGE advantage. Op, Your years gives you an "unfair" advantage (most youngsters would not know how to use a bunch of ttls ;-E ). You will be surprised how easy it is. If you are running an OS on servers always use a stable distro. My personal preference is Debian stable. -- Rgds JTD -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
