I would prefer to avoid a firewall. Infact that is why we have chosen a
lynix box. We had a firewall solution before, but we anted to hook it up
so that it will work as a notmal dialup conetion.

I really love `atd`! I can use `hdparm` to set a spin-down timeout

If the spam can be detected by looking at the mail header (ie the From:

So, do I use lilo, or are there any special tricks?
And, before you ask, NO, I'm not just another lamer. If i had an ASM
source to Win95, I would know how to do it. But I have no idea where
win95 puts its loader.
Did anyone test _emacs_ for year-2000 problems?

When you compile use

The problem is that you are using a 27 kernel and compiling 28 modules.

In any case, making boot/rescue floppies for each o/s is
