on
this list are:
o Most Post Install configurations

o Xwindows environment configuration
o Internet connections (PPP)(Netscape)(ISP's)
o Programming questions
o Daemon and service configurations
o Unsupported hardware questions, such as sound cards
o Network configurations (Lan)
o Modems
Additionally, you may find the Red Hat users' mailing list to be of
