2005/9/19-21 [Computer/SW/Unix] UID:39746 Activity:nil | 9/18 I just installed Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 and everything
seems to work ok except my httpd cannot be reached outside
of the box. I have no problem pinging and sshing into the
system, but http connection would not work. However, it does
seem to work when I launch firefox within (same machine).
What could cause this? I'm not familiar with PAM and I'm

2005/9/17-19 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux] UID:39720 Activity:nil | 9/16 Where the hell is XF86Setup for Fedora Core 3?
\_ xorg.conf . Red Hat switched from XFree86.
\_ Eh? I'm using Fedora Core 3 and I have a fully functional
/etc/XF86Config. It is the setup program that I'm looking for.
\_ xf86cfg. Man, XF86Setup was outmoded about 4 years ago.
Where have you been living, under a rock?

2005/2/5-7 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux] UID:36073 Activity:moderate | 2/5 I thinking of installing Debian Linux because a friend of mine says
it's much easier to deal with when you install programs. For example,
during an insntallation the installer will check for ALL dependencies
and automatically download the right .so files you need. The claim
is that RPMs are not as thorough and that there's more work involved.
Has anyone tried both RH and Debian and have comments on this? ok thx

2004/11/3-4 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux] UID:34619 Activity:low | 11/3 Is it just me or does Adobe Acrobat tend to go apeshit in Mozilla on
Linux? I've also noticed than on WinXP it stays running even after I
close the page that was using it
\_ Are you using Acrobat 6.0 Reader? If you are, downgrade to 5.0.
6.0 has a lot of problems, period.
\_ Acrobat 6 doesn't exist for Linux.

2004/3/12-13 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux] UID:12634 Activity:high | 3/12 RedHat, Suse, or Debian? I am seriously thinking of installing
one on my machine...
\_ Free RedHat as you know is has reached it's end. RedHat 9 was the
last of it. There will still be RedHat Professional, which is
RHEL but only costs $90. I highly recommend Fedora if you want
to keep up with the latest and greatest in Linux.

2004/2/13 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux] UID:12239 Activity:nil | 2/12 I originally installed Redhat 8 on two fresh hard drives 9GB and 18GB
(no pre-existing OS). Redhat put files on both disks. Is there a way
to manually move everything from the 18GB to the 9GB (I have enough
space)? I'd like to use the 18GB just for data (which might be later
shared with a Windows box). STFW, but haven't found anything useful.
Pointers to something on the web would help. Thanks in advance.

2003/9/2 [Computer/HW/Memory] UID:10039 Activity:nil | 9/1 I'm using RedHat 8 on a machine with 512 MB RAM and I only have
35 MB of RAM free according to top even with nothing running but
the OS. I added up the memory for the 10 biggest processes and
only got 58 MB. Does RH 8 really use around 400 MB of RAM???
\_ The rest of memory is probably used to cache filesystem access.
Take a look at the output of "free" to see how much is used for

2003/3/4 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux] UID:27591 Activity:low | 03/03 Novice question again: I have notice that we have rpm installed.
I thought RPM is redhat/linux thingy. how come it is avaliable
for BSD? Also... can normal monkeys (i.e. non-root) install rpm
packages in their own directories?
\_RPM is just a package format. You can conceivably RPM any type of
binary, but I am assuming that Sloda is running Linux binaries in

2000/11/6-7 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux] UID:19655 Activity:kinda low | 11/6 I've heard that RedHat has an automated update agent similar
to Debian. Is the RH update agent free? If so where do I
get it. If it isn't free, how much does it cost? Thanks.
\_ Why do you want to pay for Red Hat's service when you're familiar
with Debian's? I also have the impression that RHSN just applies
updates that RedHat issues to fix bugs/holes... I don't think it
