Hiya,
I'm setting up a machine to act as a firewall or router or something
(not sure what the exact term is -- basically, to allow only certain
Internet IPs to get to a machine that will be behind this
firewall-or-whatever). As such, I was planning on two NICs and having
a Debian system that does
chose, but ipportfw almost seems like a
requirement in that case (versus plain old IP forwarding), else how do
the external machines reach the 'hidden' one? I think part of my
problem may be how the 'hidden' machine's configured (default router,
domain, etc.), but the HOWTO didn't really cover that. . . .
Thanks in advance!!!

Hiya All,
I'm new to Debian -- just installed -- and am trying to get things set
up as I had them on my Slackware machine (approximately ;). Using
dselect, I installed the wu-ftpd package (that's what came with
Slackware, and I got the impression it was 'better' than the default
Debian ftpd), and

Hmm, well I wasn't exactly looking for advice, but thanks for
directing me to the man page. (blush) Anyway, I created the
directories and gave them permissions as they had under Slac
Hi All,
I'm having weird problems with EMACS. I just installed Debian 1.2
(rex-fixed, actually, so that would be 1.2.15 at the time I snarfed
it, methinks) -- a clean install, onto a fresh HD. As I recall, EMACS
required some X library or other (I don't have X on my system), which
seemed odd to

Thanks for telling me what to post. Here goes. . . .

Curiously, rebooting (which I did for other reasons ;) appears to have
fixed the problem with EMACS displaying things incorrectly (though it
always appeared to know where things really were ;). At least, one of
the more reproducible weirdnesses hasn't come back to h

Um, I'm assuming you're using Debian, since you're asking in
debian-user. (grin) Did you try the p2c package, which is a

Yah, whassup wit' dat? I had problems with dselect's 'install'
