Hi All!
After getting used to Debian for over two months now (really great work...),
I want to install and configure INN and suck for off-line newsreading.
(I choosed INN, because the package description says:
"INN is Debian's preferred news transport system.")
But configuring INN is not easy...
What's the best way to extract a dynamic IP for emailing to a remote site.
The mail script was easy enough, but how do I extract the local IP, since
it's not sent in the clear I can't use the REPORT command in a chatscript.

I would like to simply use lilo on a boot floppy, but when I ran the

this, and how would I go about preparing a boot floppy with lilo. I use

You have to modify the access.conf file in respect to the cgi-bin
directory and uncomment/add follow symlinks option for the directory.
Hope this helps.

You need to use the IP Aliasing option in the kernel. The Howto is
/usr/doc/HOWTO/mini/IP-Alias.gz.
This what I did:
1) rebuild the kernel. This is inthe Howto.
2) add the other interfaces with ifconfig.
3) add routes to them.
What isn't in the Howto is be sure to specify the dev opti

Hiya,
Dselect only gives one the choice between mounting stable or unstable.
I wanted to beta test frozen before the release date and so needed to

I'm afraid such a utility does not (and up to a certain degree, can not)
exist. PostScript is a full general programming language, and
