I'm considering a switch from Ext2 to ReiserFS or anything better than
Ext2. Currently I'm LM8.0. What's your opinion on the stability of the
Reiser File System? Is there an improvement for Ext2 on the horizon?
What software would be best at converting the Ext2 partitions to
ReiserFS?

I've found that if one of the DHCP servers at the head end is unable to
find a route to other nodes it's expecting, an ARP flood will occur (at
least with @home and other providers) as the routers try to figure out
where everyone is. Since they don't receive the expected response, they

Brandon, what you are doing is MANUALLY initiating configuration & IPX
startup, which effectively bypasses the scripts and configs which
Mandrake purposely included in 8.0.

I am trying to configure a ViewSonic VG150 LCD 15" monitor under Mandrake 8.0

The reason I am trying to configure the monitor is that it boots up

An ARP reply packet contains the hardware and protocol address of the

Cable modems are a "shared" resource.
As a result you are seeing traffic for other servers and users on your
network interface.
This is normal.
Feel lucky that you only get 1.2kbps... I get 24kbps of steady chatter
or more...

Do you what port the TCP packets are bound to? If port 80, I would expect
that you are seeing Code Red in action.

I have Mandrake 8.0 with the bastille firewall set up. Today, I noticed
that I have a pretty steady stream of incoming packets coming across
the interface that is plugged into the cable modem, although I am not

you can use ncurses from rpmfind.net. i dont think its
a good idea to 'force' unless you know which files are
being replaced...try this:

Thanks - I know that pure scsi burners are more reliable this way, but
I have been using ide-scsi for many years now without any problem, on
many distros - until I upgraded to LM 8.0.

Defaults for Mandrake are set by the security profile, no?
/etc/security/msec is the place to look.
