Ditch Ubuntu - too much for that old hardware. Go with Trustix, install the SlimServer .rpm, add the ProFTP daemon package, start the ssh daemon, install PuTTY on your XP box, and Bob's yer uncle.
I've got the above setup running on an old K6-2 300 w/ 192 RAM. There is a delay in Web browsing, understandable for this vintage. Otherwise, it works. FYI: Trustix is a small-footprint, Red Hat based, Level 3, server-only package. I use ProFTP to move files from XP to the K6-2, SSH to remotely administer the box, and PuTTY as a Windows SSH client. -- fathom39 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fathom39's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1000 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18125 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
