I successfully installed the OS by RTFM! But now I'm experiencing trouble with the GUI. Actually, I don't care if I have a GUI or not because I'm going to try this as my home server but I don't know enough about the command line to check anything out. Is the hd being shared? How much of it (if I recall, the / partition is 4.3 meg and the /home partition is about 3 meg)? How do I administer users? etc, etc, etc. Will Mandrake Campus help me with this. I also have a couple of old Unix books around but they don't seem to be geared to setting up a server. tia R ----- Richard L.
