If you increase the speed, you will get lots of crc errors and that will actually slow you down. Especially if you will be using ftp. your best bet is: 1. Replace your external modem with an internal 33.6kbps modems. Internal modems have embedded 6550a UART chips. 2. Buy/Replace your IDE card with a new IDE card which has the 16550a chip on it. regards, == == Andre M.

network status thru voice
Hi, I would like our users to know if our local or international link to the internet is up or down.

Re: Which Linux distribution???

I would make a guess and > claim that there aren't too many people who migrate from Debian to another > dist after using Debian for at least a couple of months. How true. I agree 100% with that statement. But could it be possible that Debian will support some sort of GUI admin. tool? just like Redhat's control panel. maybe someone could port this thing to Debian. This GUI admin tool has: 1. Printer Configurator.(easy to add printers locally, remote or using smb.) 2. Network Configurator.(adding virtual hosts and/or dialup to an ISP.) 3. Package Management. (sorta like a graphical dselect.) 4. Apache Configurator. (add virtual web hostings, etc.) 5. File System Configurator. (mount/unmounts filesystems and NFS.) 6. Runlevel Editor. (Edit the runlevels of the system.) 7. User & group configurator. (Add,delete or lock users/groups.) 8. Time Machine. (Change the Time or Date Grahically.) Hell, it's so easy to dialup to an ISP using this thing, we could then elimanate maybe 20% of the topic here in debian-user mailing list about how to connect to an ISP. :) I think, that's one strength of Redhat compared to Debian. Webmin and Linuxconf has the same idea. Maybe we could tinker with it and start from there. Any Ideas? regards, == == Andre M.

shell program menu
Hi, [ Sorry if this is not debian specific.] Hi, I would like to implement a shell program (preferebly in C programming.) where our users if they telnet to us, they would be given a menu instead of a shell.

If you have an FTP server on your web server, type this in your netscape: ftp:// example: ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED] It will ask you for your password and you can now upload your web page. The only problem is... you could upload only one file at a time. If you want to upload many files, go get netscape gold or netscape communicator.

One good example is the Netscape installer (Navigator or Communicator) Debian. This installer fixes a few glitches where Netscape would give you a bus error. So Netscape is very stable when I run it... even with java applets in some web pages.
