Hi All, I've just installed leaf Bering on 2 PC's. The are going to be firewalls/IpSec VPN tunnels for a friend, after a bit of stumbling I've managed to get them set up to boot from an IDE disk (later to be booted from flash). I read the install instructions and most of the user guide, any other suggestions on reading materials for the basic distro. I've not gotten to the firewall yet but the directions for that look pretty comprehensive.
But I need to remotely manage these boxes. So I installed the entire family of packages for ssh, sshd, ssh-keygen, etc. I've gotten ssh working. This has generated a couple of questions for me (If tried to look in the archives of this list but the list archives are VERY slow, don't know if thats normal or just today). Anyway here come the questions, and help or directions to reading materials would be great: 1) There is very little room in / partition about 4 1K sectors. Each time I've filled up the 4 blocks and saved what I was doing and rebooted resulted in 4 more 1K sectors. How can I increase the space while I'm adding software and configuring things? It it truly a pain in the tail to reboot every 4K. 2) I needed to add another user to the system (myself) but su is not installed, so I can't su to root to do remote administration. How can I add additional tools such as su? There is no apt-get. Do I just find the source compile it and in 4K chunks add it? 3) I've never had to do host keys and the like for sshd. Any suggestions for how to generate the necessary keys to get sshd to run, right now it shuts down because it it's missing some basic host key stuff. Thanks in advance and sorry about the basic questions.
