I guess RH's days are numbered.
\_ RH has horrible response/support and high prices. We have a few
zillion seats and they made it very clear they couldn't care less
about our business. The distro team is currently investigating

| 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

\_ 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.

| 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

| 2005/1/5-7 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux, Computer/SW/OS/Solaris] UID:35563 Activity:very high | 1/5 So who else thinks that Linux Kernel Development has gone haywire?
WTF is up with this movement from an 8k to a 4k stack in the kernel
that breaks tons of existing drivers that are ported over from
Windows? And wtf is this crap doing on production distros like
Fedora? Don't they realize that if you're going to have a large
install base that you can't arbitrarily do crap like that anymore?

| 2004/12/9-12 [Computer/SW/Unix] UID:35237 Activity:high | 12/9 Has anyone had experience with using a file under NFS as basically
a region of memory shared between separate machines? I.e., the
machines lock the file and read/write it to communicate. Speed is
not a huge concern, but can this be done reliably? Are there
caching issues? Will fsync work properly over NFS? This doesn't
seem ideal, but thanks for any advice.

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.

to have major problems, and I can't tell if it's SA's fault or
Redhate's. perl Makefile.PL yields a Makefile with stray single
quotes and truncated lines. google searches yield no help.

| 2004/10/28-29 [Computer/SW/Unix] UID:34409 Activity:high | 10/28 I just built a terrabyte raid server using linux. The distro is
an older version of RH 8 (need it to keep compatibility with certain
apps). I formatted the raid to be XFS. The server is an NFS server,
and I appear to be hitting the 2 gig file limit. According to the
docs I'm supposed to be able to get beyond the 2 gig limit with
RH8. I have compiled a new 2.4.27 kernel to replace the stock
