Great responses guys, thanks so much.

I never really use webmail anyway except if on holidays.
If anyone has anything to add...

I'll chime in to give a couple of cents worth
I've got a root access VPS package, 512 RAM and BD.
I've been using this package since september 30th 2005.
There have been few glitches in that time.
As James mentions, you can do most things in the web admin panel. So you
don't really need muc

Thinking about a viviotech vps but I'm not an admin and never used linux.
Wondering how hard it would be and what people are using there. I've searched
and read the good feedback. It's either that or shared hosting somewhere like

I know there is a managed solution but wondering i

I think the kernal is 2.4.21. But when I think about it, I haven't
actually used the data in Windows. (I use Windows data in Linux and
Linux data in Linux, but not Linux data in Windows.)

Which kernel are you using and are you writing to NTFS from Linux and
then making use of the data from Windows later?

I've never had any trouble with NTFS from Linux (using Mandrake 8/9).

Are you concerned about recovering the data on the machine? If so,
installing Linux won't necessarily help you (especially if you end up
repartitioning or reformatting). You might want to try NT Locksmith and/or

Bryan,
Overall, I found SuSE 8.2 to be the easiest to install on an older machine.
I'm a complete Linux newbie and didn't want to fool with the comand line
during installation. SuSE install was straightforward and went without any
hitches. It even recognized my windows network connectio

Bryan,
As a Linux Newbie, I'd recommend you look at Mandrake for this first toe
in the water. Mandrake is very friendly to noobs, and you'll be able to
get up and running in no time. RedHat is better known, and their

Hey All,
OK...so I'm going to give this open source hippie stuff a whirl ;-)
I have an old AMD K6-2 400 MHz box with Win2K Pro currently installed
One big issue is the passwords for this box have been lost.
So can I simply install Linux over Windows (i.e. from boot up)? or do I have
