After trying to kill the process..., let me make that two mirror processes, I decided it was time for a healthy reboot. Well.... all hell broke loose. With the reboot it left the filesystem if a not so nice state. My mache did not come back up so I had to drive 60 miles to hook up a monitor and see that the file system checker needed to be run manually. Not very fun. Before this incedent I was running RedHat 4.1 on the system. After running Debian at home for a few months I realized how much easier it was to maintain and decided to convert my whole system over to Debian just to make life a little easier.
The kernel was 2.0.29 and I had used alien to install mirror_2.8-9.deb What is the Debian way of setting up anonymous ftp? Do I just create an ftp user with /home/ftp as default? Will this carry through after upgrades? - [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 22 Aug 1997, Manoj Srivastava wrote: > Hi, > >>"Ricardo" == Ricardo Muggli <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > Ricardo> This may be off the debian-specific topic but..
