Making all home directories 777 really makes me nervous. It might work
for a school like Liholiho, but otherwise it is a disaster waiting to
happen. We really need to fix
I've been using a CompUSA brand usb keychain flash drive for a while
now. It's just a 128 MB one, and USB 1.1 compatible but it's worked
just fine for me.
If I were going to buy one today the most important things I would look
for a USB 2.0 compatibility, 256 MB or more of flash storage

Ditto.
As another side point (as everyone can see, I am quite excited about the
use of USB storage in Linux), I typically don't mask the entire /home
directory, rather, only my user directory, i.e., /home/x.
Of course, before you do that, the root of the host machine must create
the same user
one of the most useful features of a thumb drive (or a USB hard disk) is
to do incremental backups. I used to rely on a DOS program called
xtree/ztree to do incremental backups in Windows, but in Linux, the task
is substantially easier.
I am tossing in my way of doing incremental backups, if

depending on the deal. (was $30 once)
I'd never buy a thumb drive. I'd rather use a pcmcia, ide or usb2
adaptor. any one of those plus the cost of the memory is still cheaper
and faster. usb is actually the least

How are you going to manage all these links?
If, say, the students were in the same gid as the teacher you could script
it all to be automatic without the need for an outside database or
constant management outside adding/removing users.

In my experience ezmlm and Smartlist are the most painless for users of
the list system. ezmlm is the easiest to set up and administer that
I've found. Smartlist is also a pain to setup, but once running it
functions far better than Mailman. I wouldn't recommend inflicting
Mailman on your users

I might have something written in C just for this purpose.
It uses the /etc/group (for group members) and /etc/passwd (for home dirs)
and symlinks into the teacher's ~/students
it would run like this:
linkstud group teacher

0) Google for the squid mailing list archives and FAQ
1) Shutdown the server
2) Remove the cache directory `rm -fr $foo`
3) Recreate the cache directory `squid
Yea google owns.
Thanks for the confirm. Was just wonderin if there was another way.
Thanks.

Pretty much. Home directories can be anywhere, not just under /home.
Again, there are caveats to that approach.
