Here's a question for all you X experts. We use Linux as
Workstations and Unix for servers here at work. For remote
xterm-ing, there are two different scenarios:
1. rsh server xterm (assuming DISPLAY is set properly on
server user account to point to the workstation)
2. xterm -e rlogin server
If you are using the Windose ME box to connect to the cable ISP, you should not have
to worry about your workgroup name. I use Rogers@home and used to have a similar set
up that you describe. With the windows machine, I assigned it the workgroup name of
the internal network I wished to use and
I am using mandrake as well. It installs very well and I have yet to experience much
of a problem with it.

Hey all you Mandrakers. Does it install a firewall at install much in the
same way that Redhat 7.1 does?
Thanks.

The lilo.conf/hda6 issue would make LILO not boot at all, unless partition

need to make partition 6 active in DOS/Win FDISK, or install LILO or GRUB

Start the machine and when you see the line "starting windows9x" hit the f8 key.
You will then have a number of options including the ability to start in Dos mode.
You may also wish to start in safe mode and uninstall the drivers if you can.

I don't think that one can assign more than one workgroup to ME.
You might have to change all other home boxes to the same workgroup as
assigned by @home. But then, security issues??

Hello All,
I know this is a windoze question, but the expertise of this group is why I use
Linux in the first place.
I will be setting up cable internet access in the next day or so. The ISP only
recognizes windoze. (The SxS site shows me how to get around that w/
Linux). It requires that you c

Collaboration was maybe the wrong choice. What I am looking for is:
1) The setting up of appointments
2) The ability to create notes regarding a customer
3) To have a history of activity on a customer or project
4) To send mail
5) To have all of this information stored in a central database
6)
My company uses webcal for points (1), (2), (5), and (6).
Additionally we use IMP for (4), and JCS for (3).
I don't know of a single package that will do it all.
Perhaps the "Exchange replace" from Bynari would be a good fit?

Thanks for the help. F8 got me where I needed to go, dos mode.
I removed all files named LEXBCES.EXE and LEXBCES.001 etc from my
c:/windows/system directory. I may have also removed LEXBCE.DLL.
After that, windows started up just fine.
The only problem I could find is that the length of the file

Both mice are on the computer now. Both work in win98, but only the old

My experience with BM which came with COL2.3/2.4 was that
it has problem reading/creating partitions on HD with size
larger than 8.4G .
This might also apply to your case, but I am just guessing.

Just a quick thought, one of the things I remembered when is et up my LexMark
OptraE312 to print serve/serve the drivers to windows was taht you had to
specifically alter the case of some files names to match what the windows
installer was looking for.

I don't think that would work but that would give you alternate, not dual

Thanks, but I only have a 6.2 gig, and have used PM and BM with caldera
2.3/2.4 successfully. However, I'm starting over with dual or triple boot,
win95, Slackware8, and maybe Progeny (or Redhat7.1). I'm leaning toward
lilo in the mbr.
