As I said before, I don't go into the Dusseldorf Oldtown with an Armani Suite to enter a students pub these answers were "overdressed" for me.

Oh, http://www.de.debian.org/CD/ also exists, why didn't I see this before? Where's the link from?

Nevertheless I've bookmarked the apt-proxy and apt-cache and will get back on them when I got more time... but to be honest I got a lot of test servers here, so there would be no need to keep track which package on which server, which version, blablabla, because they're reinstall every 2 weeks, also with other distributions, etc Whatever man, that definitely solved my headache and lot's of time I can use on other more important stuff...

Just copy them in a way you like them to get accessed later on. ftp-servers and web-servers are quite flexible these days, so pick your layout and correctly setup your servers.

RE: Make your own Debian Woody Dist. Server on Apache - AGAIN
Hi List, I already asked this question, but the answers weren't of any use for me I looked @ this apt-cache and apt-proxy stuff and it's far too much. I don't need to drive a Ferrari to get some cigarettes from the corner, if a bicycle will do the job! Okay I'll go back to the start and ask my question in another way. I'll try to be more precisley ^^ 1. Is it possible to use apache or ftp proggies for my debian-cd's, so I can use them for client installation? 2. Assuming the answer is yes on the first question, HOW do I have to copy the cds onto apache or the ftp? Simply copy disc by disc or do I need to take care of special files, which might be overwritten and make the copying more or less useless? 3. Assuming the copying is possible without any hassle, do I have to use special directories or can I use my own directory tree? I think it should be possible, but before copying nearly 7 CD's with around 650 MB, which might be worthless afterwards, I'd first like to know if there are any tasks which need to be done, before copying?

Re: apache again
OK, it's working again. I found ifup and /etc/interfaces. But why am I still getting all of the unresolved symbols with modules? During the make menuconfig step I selected a bunch of stuff as modules but I'm having a hard time figuring out what the names of some of them are. Is there a way to list the modules that are eligible for installation? How do you go about finding out what the name of the module is that relates to what you selected in the config? Most are obvious, but some aren't. Such as "Packet Socket" or "Unix domain socket". Thanks, Jim. Jim Lynch wrote: > > Well, I gave up, trashed the disk and installed 2.2 from scratch.

apache again
Well, I gave up, trashed the disk and installed 2.2 from scratch. Now I've been installing/configuring Linux since 0.12. This release really takes me back to the good old days. I installed about everything under the sun including networking but when I look at the /etc/init.d/networking file, there isn't a sign of a ifconfig statement. Where is the network adaptor supposed to be enabled? I searched all of init.d for it. It isn't coming up. Nothing during the installation asked me for any network values. I ran linuxconfig and it asked me for that info, but I can't seem to find where it put it. I don't want to have to do a manual config for networking 'cause previous debian releases didn't have to be, so what did I miss? Dselect still sucks. 8( Navigation is useless. I recompiled the 2.2.17 kernel and I'm getting a rash of unresolved symbols when I run depmod. Any idea what that is all about? Thanks, Jim.
