Another reason why Mandrake is doomed... how can they keep on updating it, if they don't get any morey for it? Simple answer: they don't. I learned my lesson when KDE updated to 1.1.1 and installing it on my Mandrake proved impossible (worse: I lost my Xwindows) If you want it cheap,

Has anyone tried to install Mandrake for Windows? It's listed as lnx4win under Mandrake/6.0pre on the ftp mirrors. I am not starting another 'MS trying to get into the Linux market' joke. I have downloaded it and plan on trying it out for myself. Seems like a nice alternative for newbies who

No joke at all. I still have to use Windows, for one because of my ISP's software, but I was in the process of downloading the pre-release of Mandrake 6.0 when I noticed lnx4win. From what I have read, it will put a Linux shortcut on your desktop and you can load it from Windows. Here is one

No, this is actually something different. If you have ever heard of a UMSDOS install, I believe this is similar (I did it with Slackware a while back and got nowhere). UMSDOS basically creates a linux file system on a Dos partition with no partitioning, deleting Windows files, or formatting a

You have to install imap-4.5-5mdk.rpm, it contains pop3. For IP masquerading to work, you have to run Linuxconf, in Networking, routing and gateways, and check "Enable routing". It's disabled by default (to conform to a RFC.. don't remember which one). Jean-Michel Dault [EMAIL PROTECTED]
