A free SQL database program. I need it for a school work, I know it comes
with Red Hat (since I currently connect to arachne.cz to use it). For more
info: http://www.tcx.se/
I know I could download it - but it's not for much use now, I noticed today
that it's due in in one week.

I saw an interesting thing on simtel.net - a NFS server for DOS :)

The one I'm trying to set up yes, but my main machine has all kinds of
things running (httpd for instance - another resource hog). I should
probably do a reinstall - but a dummy installation in Slackware is still
much faster then one very I choosed as much as I could in Red Hat.

You recomended that I used an older Slackware distro, but (if I've
understand it correctly) they don't have IP-masq in the kernel.
