Forget my last message. I stopped reeading early, and should have pointed
out a few more things.
> "Safe" for what? / should be a small partition of about 64MB max,
Why? Will 70 megs break something? For goodness sake, with hard drives
costing less than twenty cents per megabyte, don't be so stingy. A little
forthought now (read: A little more generosity in partition sizing) just
may save you hours of work later on.
Incidentally, while installing Linux on the last few servers I put
together (with $100 drives), I gave every partition at least twice what it
was ever likely to use, and still ended up with unpartitioned space.

For safety's sake (not to mention issues with LILO), make /boot it's own
partition. And /root *can* be part of /, since filling up / will still
leave room for root, for damage control, root may want his files on a
seperate parition as well.

/tmp, as a world-writeable directory, should absolutely NOT be placed in
the / partition, unless you really like any normal user to fill up the /
partition completely. Put it on it's own partition as well.

No. How would one person be able to monitor them all?

Most of these terms are defined in places like http://www.linux.com or
http://www.linuxnewbie.org, which are devoted to new Linux users.

OK, I don't know what you are reading of mine that makes you think
I am ~ADVOCATING~ exporting variables from .profile, I'm not.
I merely stated it is an alternative, and it is. From the OP:
"
I have a great .profile in my home directory, however Gnome xterm (or any
xterm) won't read and implemet it. But when I . ./.profile, su to myself or
telnet in, it gets read and implented. Please Help
"
To me, this is newbie for "How do I get something to happen upon
each seperate invocation of the shell?". My answer which I stand
by is roughly "use .bashrc" (I presented other alternatives, but
I did not recommend them).
FD> Exporting environment variables from ~/.profile is not a great
FD> idea anyway. There is then no easy way to avoid them! If the
FD> ~/.profile environment is an absolute minimum (as noted, PATH
FD> and ENV or BASH_ENV and maybe TERM is just about all that is

FD> baggage, and sometimes that is useful. It can also be argued
FD> that BASH_ENV should not be set to ~/.bashrc the way I do, and
FD> instead a third init file unique to non-interactive shells
FD> should be used, just to reduce the overhead of what is defined
FD> for the non-interactive shell environment.
FD>
FD> The best advice for the OP is simply to move his ~/.profile to
FD> ~/.bashrc and write a minimal ~/.profile to match.
Right, and of the three alternatives I presented, that was the one
I suggested, so I do not see your argument here! :-)

Use mgetty with AutoPPP and remove the default shell for that user
in /etc/passwd file or you can change it to something like /bin/false.

Perhaps we don't have the same // port zip, but for me the command to get the
zip recognized is
modprobe ppa
It works 100%
Note that the // port is configured ECP+EPP in the BIOS and you may tweak
that.

Sorry, had not seen this one, but i think SPP will be slow. EPP would be
better.

This is in principle BAD. For OS such as Linux FreeBSD and even WinNT i think
the correct setting is PNP OS NO, so that the BIOS initializes as much cards
as it can.

Actually, there is. You can force mandatory locking in linux. I'm not

Of course. Good advice. The program in question is called "logrotate".
But there is nothing wrong with a simple "mv and signal". That will start
a new file for syslog without losing any line. He can then copy the
old or throw it away. There is no deep mystery here.

: / containing /boot and /root?
There's no big reason that it shouldn't. /root is OK unless you are trying
to make / readonly. You shouldn't login as root anyway, so it can be
tiny. It's only use is to contain a history file showing roots
activities. /boot needs to be a small partition neear the bottom of the
disk, which fits the definition I gave of /. The reasons for not
having /boot in / are: (1) prefer to keep / in the extended partition,
e.g. as /dev/hda5, well out of windows way, which may put it high
up the disk; (2) tidiness; it has a different function from /.

OK, here it is.
I ALWAYS use the sources to compile apache (and usually put it in /usr/local/apache)
because Idonot like where the RPM puts the files...
So, Ihave created an init script to automatically start apache, under /etc/rc.d/init.d:
######################################################################
#!/bin/bash
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting Apache"
daemon /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd
;;
stop)
echo -n "Stopping Apache"
killproc httpd
;;
reload|restart)
echo -n "Reloading Apache"
$0 stop
$0 start
;;
status)
echo -n "Checking Apache status"
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl status
;;
*)
echo "Usage: /etc/rc.d/init.d/apache {start|stop|restart|reload|status}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
##################################################################]
To configure the runlevels, su - and run control-panel.
Of course there always is the manual way (go to /etc/rc.d/rc<n>.d and put Start and
Kill links), but tools are here to make our lives easier.
I hope Ihave been helpful
