Hello all, Just got the new issue of Linux Journal and found a very interesting article: http://www2.linuxjournal.com/cgi-bin/frames.pl/lj-issues/issue84/4568.html About an interesting piece of free software... http://www.salmar.com/gss called Grand Salmar Station. It essentially serves as a document and file repository that is very similar to the Infoplace document organizer on the rebel.com Netwinder, as well as being similar to the format and functionality of a discussion database in Lotus Notes. One downside is that is uses PostgreSQL instead of MySQL. I only mention because it looks like it might fill a gap in e-smith. For the non-technical end user, the only two facilities that I think are currently missing from the product are something like this (because a lot of people have trouble with the concept of network drives to store "stuff") and perhaps the integration of a program like Phorum. (yes I have followed all the other threads and wish lists and even contributed the things I would like as an administrator, but I am only thinking about end user experience). Anyway, just my two cents BTW, while waxing poetic, has anyone thought about or already created new ISO images of e-smith that contain all the current update RPMS? It would be a lot easier than doing the install and doing all the updates manually, especially in a restore situation. Robert Boerner
