Connecting Wireless & Wired Networks

Hello All, I recently got a wireless card configured up on my Debian box, which also has a regular wired NIC. I'd like to set things up so that my wife's XP laptop, which has a wireless card that will sucessfully talk to the Debian wireless card, can use the Debian box as a gateway out to the

Strange output to console

Galeon - Mozilla - Epiphany = strange lockups

security update advice- SSH

I'm running the latest Libranet, which is based on Sarge. I'm confused over the latest round of SSH patches, it looks like they've issued patches for Woody, but not Sarge. I know the docs say that security updates for Sarge come a lot slower than for Woody- how do I know if I have the patched ve

OT: BT Broadband - which ADSL modem?

After a couple of years of um-ing and ah-ing, my dad's finally got round to installing broadband. Specifically, BT broadband (here in the uk). He's asked me to slip in a 486 class router/firewall inbetween his Windows machines and the ADSL modem, so I'd much rather go with a modem that has RJ4

During Debian (woody 3.0r1) installation, how do I tell that I want to set:   /dev/sda1 as /boot /dev/sda2 as / /dev/sda3 as swap.   I did set up those partition as above, but after finish and boot up, df -v only show /dev/sda2 mount as / and I can see all the directories under / including /bo
