Does anyone have LEAF images that can be 'dd' onto a CF card? What size ones are needed ? I'm looking to have a LEAF box running Quagga (the forked version of Zebra), and CF would be a lot nicer than a floppy. John --- This SF.net email is

Hey all, With weblet, I would find a feature that showed hourly use of bandwidth very useful. Maybe others would too, those on pay-per-meg deals? It could be grabbed from the ipchains accounting figures. I tried to set up a shell script to do it but couldn't get it running automatically. Would

Hi, Is there any reason why a script wouldn't run from /etc/crontab in ES2B? I have tried almost everything, it seems - put full path names in the script, put a touch command to test if it is working, but the script never runs. /var/logs/syslog says that the crontab was reloaded, but the script

Hi all, I know there's been lots of discussion about 'load balancing' in the past, over two similar link types. I want to do something a little different but in the same vein. Our company currently has a 2mb ADSL line, and for the most part it works great. However, we might be taking on a leased
