It is not unusual for nobody to be 65535 (16 bits) on various systems.
On an MDK system, I might get worried a little as nobody is usually 99.

I installed Beta 3 on a brand new Gigabyte 2.2 P4 box. It has a promise raid
controller with a Radeon ATI all in wonder card.
The Boot loader thrashed my MBR. My guess is because I'm installing this on a

Hi James,
Thanks for the information and I will look into those distributions to get a
feel for what they can do. I have also found the Linux Terminal Server
Project as well and it might be a good starting point as well because the
project is close to an advanced terminal which will be running so

If you are looking to get that small embedded Linux will carry you
further than any of the desktop dirsto's. At that size you are not
going to be dealing with the same needs as you would with a full
desktop. The /bin directory alone is larger than what you need. (6.8

Hello All,
I have been looking at various distributions on the
net but have always liked Mandrake and have used it in the past with great
success.
What I need now is a small minimalist distribution

Greetings,
I'm struggling to get SpamAssassin working properly with Postfix. I think
I'm close, but things aren't working quite right.
I've read the helpful documents at

OK guys, I played it safe.
I spent more time on trying to discover why Postfix was not working, at 5 AM
