RE: [newbie] where do I find components

2000-03-16 Thread Cory Hirano

I'm sorry let me clarify that question where do I find the newer version of
the components like I know where to get Xfree86 4.0 and where to get the
latest version of Wine but I don't know where to get most of the other
components from.

Hi there doing a upgrade I got rr to work but I don't know if all my TCP/IP
settings are right and I don't know where to find them. Also in w98 using IE
I run rr though a porxy server is there any way to set it up in communicator
I've never used Netscape before.  BTW if I'm not logged in to the network
how can I be on it?  I haven't set up my user name or password for rr and
don't know where to do it.

Same old story from the tech guys, that is their excuss for "they have no
idea what they are doing".

Do you have linux installed already??  If you get linux installed and your
network card setup properly the rest is cake.

You need to find you if you are using static IP addressing or DHCP, find
this out from tech support if you don't know.

Get the info for gateway, DNS, your IP (if it is static), smtp mail server,
pop mail server, etc.

Ready to start when you are :)
