I get what Narcis Garcia means by versioning. If I want to report a problem, what do I tell/mention what my version is? We may have different versions. Do we all have to have the same version? Having a different version would be easier to "debug" :) But then again, maybe we are just a small commun

Debian GNU/Hurd on the net?

At the risk of being silly, I put our GNU/Hurd box on the Internet. http://hurd.indocisc.com Please don't hurd it. :) If the system is unreachable, it could be that the machine is down. (Lately it has been acting up, dropping into root prompt asking for fsck.) I was thinking of creating a gues

Ok. We all have read views from both sides. Let's stop the flames. I guess most of you work on the GNU/Hurd in front of consoles, thus have no problem having no ssh (or assume that people could install it themselves). Fair enough... Now, could somebody point a quick tutorial (for impatient people)

I support the addition of ssh, *even* with a weak random. The problem is, without ssh ... I would have to resort to telnet.
