Folks
I have a HP 8540w workstation, and just for kicks, I wanted to see if
I could install Centos 6.2 using only the wireless connection, and
the cd/dvd reader.
I would be inclined to use the Live CD and install from that.

Ok, then where does it come from, since it's not the current kernel version and

Is there a way to force file permissions by directory (and subdirectories

Users on Machine A with rights to log into and run jobs on Machine B using ssh
want to be able to view and cancel print jobs on Machine B.
This is easily accomplished via the commandline with lpq and lprm, but is there
a GUI that I can give them? I have them running things like scribus using

I mentioned here the other day that I was planning to set up a Centos 6 system
using a SSD for the system drive and a regular hard drive for a data drive.
My plan is to have everything that doesn't change (much) on the SSD, such

I just ordered a new machine that's destined to become a Centos 6 application
server for a publishing company, and decided to get one with a 40GB SSD as well
as a standard hard drive.
I'm thinking that I can put most of the operating system on that drive and have
