Yes, if you get the packages via http (or ftp?). If you have the .deb

I'm trying out leafnode. It produces a huge database in /var/spool/news

Hi all,
I just put Slink on a new machine and am having problems adding users.
I want to add a user so that they /home/username as their home directory and
so that they can receive mail.
What is the command to set up a normal user? Is it useradd -m username?
This doesn't seem to set ip a mail

This doesn't seem to set ip a mail file in /var/spool/mail and the

Many thanks!

You can either download the floppies, and install the base system, and
