We have a mirror (debian.ssc.com for those on the west coast who hadn't
noticed) which makes on-site installs a breeze. However, we have
employees who'd like to install Debian at home, so I thought "Gee, we
have a mirror, why don't I just burn a CD or two?"

Unfortunately it still worked after I re-added the local machine

The communicator 4.5 (complete install) won't run on my Debian box. I
wonder maybe I did something wrong in configuration. Here is what I did:
1. login as root and download from ftp3.netscape.com
2. move the file to /tmp and gunzip and tar
3. Now I got all the files in /tmp/communicator4.5-x486...
I am getting the message 'queue full'

This is a bug in xdm (reported). Try removing the link in /etc/rc?.d that

I am having some weirdness with the version of xdm in slink. When the
package installed and did its setup, xdm started itself. I thought this
was a test, like when you install the Xserver, but xdm did not then
shutdown. I killed it and eventually rebooted. Now in /etc/X11/config

Thanks for your reply. I had not tried that. I must admit I've
been a bit confused about the differences between gcc, g++, egcs, libc5
and libc6. The program I was trying to compile worked on Slackware 3.5
