OT: Beer
Ok, I know that there are a number of geeks out there who just love their beer (some members of MELBA tend to come to mind). On one of tonights newscasts they mentioned this site: http://www.beeradvocate.com/ The "beer advocate" website contains information about beer, ratings on quite a number of different brews, and a whole lot more. I just thought some of you would enjoy this. Regards, Jeff Kirkland ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
Re: installing Linux by floppy to get driver
My old 486 didn't have a builtin CDROM. I had an Adaptec 1542b and an external SCSI CD ROM. Redhat, Mandrake, etc all work just fine with that setup. The CD can be from a mac or sun as well. Any SCSI CD-ROM drive will work with CDs in the boxed set (stamped). Older drives can have issues with CD-R disks. CD-RW can only be read on newer drives. "Matthew J.

Re: Anyone ran into this? Domain disabled by Verisign claiming lack of payment...

I'm really loath to pay them for something I'm loathe to use Verisign for anything... my first experience with credit card fraud occurred because Verisign neglected to verify the card used to register a domain name; e.g., they pushed the charge through without verifying the name on the card, the address or the phone number. This is a pretty sad practice for a company who says they're in the security business. My domain is registered with DomainDiscover. I originally used them for mail forwarding, web site forwarding and DNS, all of which worked great. When I brought my email and web site in-house, the changes were immediate... same thing when I switched by DNS to ZoneEdit. They don't have discount prices, but they're a full-service registrar with a good track record.
