KVM switch and debian
I currently have the following setup at home. Linksys DSL Router working as a DHCP Server. 1 Windows NT machine with an HP DeskJet 960C printer 1 Windows 98 machine. This is what I want to do. Install Debian Sarge on a new machine. Connect the Windows 98 and the new machine with a Linksys KVM2KIT (2 port KVM switch). Question: Are there any pitfalls which I should be aware of, or any special considerations I will need to think of when I install debian.

Re: Troubleshoot FTP
Sorry if this isn't the right place for this but I don't know where else to turn. A client of mine has recently started having connection problems to my ftp server hosted under Debian. He says he simply cannot reach us. I can ftp just fine to his server. They think we have changed something on our end that would cause this problem. I've checked our access-list on our Cisco but there's nothing there blocking ftp connections. I'm planning on a little field trip to their office over the next week to try to troubleshoot the problem. What methods can I use to find out what is stopping the connection. The only methods I know of are ping and traceroute but that's not going to tell me what's causing the problem. My server is connected via Sprint. Their server is connected via Verizon. Personally I think it's something on Verizon blocking ftp from their end but I need to be able to prove it to them so they will go after their ip provider with the evidence. Here are something to think about: I'm not certain about the port used to do ftp, but if the client is blocking the port for some reason, it would explain the problems communicating with the ftp server. In other words, the problem could be at the remote computer and not the server. HTH. Sincerely, Richard Swen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

newbie question concerning linux install
Currently with much effort I have been able to finish part of the install on my computer configured as follows: p3 550mhz 128megs of ram vodoo 3 3000 soundblaster live 3com 3c905c Maxtor 13.0gig UDMA/66 ABIT BE-6 II Motherboard IOMEGA 250MB Zip Drive 3com 56K Fax/Voice/Data Modem Currently I have the hard drive partitioned as follows NTFS: 5GB NTFS: 4GB Linux Swap: 256MB Linux EXT2: 4GB I can complete every thing but make the drive bootable. When I try to make the hard drive bootable, it seem like the CDROM is detected as having the MBR. I may be mistaken on the device names but here is what I remember.
