Easy. Just put it in the drave and reboot. If you got the right image then
it will boot from the cd.
It is able to resize windows partitions, you should not attempt to install
it without at least a basic knowledge of partitions.

Try to keep your use of PM4.0 under NT to a minimum. After too many uses it

It's always better to use PM4.0

Just my 2 cents!
If you have a NEW installation of LM 7.1 and the security is set to low, you
will have a fairly open system. You need to install a method to close these
ports from ipchains. I would recommend using a very easy utility called
pmfirewall. It saved me lots of time and did about 90 percent of the

I agree with Steve and if running an individual box, one of the first
things that should be done is to shut down telnet.
If your mean that you internal clients are set up using the original DNS
servers, then as long as those servers remain in service tose settings
should work. It may be that you ISP is(was) actually contracting the DNS

times and nothing seems to make a difference.
