RE: Auto blanking of xscreensaver

RE: BUG

My experience with debian was identical. I started with slackware beta way back when (20 something floppies). Then went Redhat. Haven't used either in a long time. I don't think it would have mattered much. The Debian install is unique. I had a working system and re-installed anyway when I re

RE: YourDomain setup

You don't need more than one computer for domain name registration.  As cyber-#$#$# have shown, you don't need any computer to register a domain.  If you are going to run your own DNS server, you may want to have a backup server or secondary server.  When I registered mine, I went to http://
