well yes and no sometimes things appear slowly and sometimes a logout will fix
it but I guess I was wrong in my above statement to be more exact there are
times though that the menu just simply messes up and looses a bunch of
settings and nothing but running update-menues or using menudrake as root or
installing another package that triggers update menues correctly will fix it.
Thanks for jogging my memory I have been way to busy the last few months or
so. My shop has been very busy with all the windows worms and virii running
around. I'm getting really short on sleep now.
The only problems i have with mandrake is that i have a few
file/print/firewall servers around and lately there has been a group hitting
the dsl modem users in town badly. Now the mandrake firewall keeps them out
just fine but the dsl modem takes such a huge bashing from packet overload
that it locks up the modem and eventually the linux box looses the adsl
connection which I have not found anything for yet accept to reboot the linux
box and shut of the modem. I have tried restarting the network and all the
deamons that are used for the connection sharing but i must be missing one
someplace because it will only work after a reboot.
this includes adsl, shorewall, network, dhcp, and named. Oh well i wish the
script kidies would find something better to do with their time.
