Some time ago Red Hat acquired Netscape's Directory Server and release it under open source
licence renamed Fedora Directory Server. Does onybody use it, or simply try? What future of FDS do
you predict? Give your opinion....

Hello! I've got a test server launched using CentOS 4.3 Final and installed phpSysInfo on it to
monitor it. Well, when I ran it as Debian, I never got the following errors on the output: QUOTE

I re-installed a fresh copy of Debian on an extra hard drive (I'm not about to experience the
troubles I had on a good system) and so I tried to get the Nvidia drivers re-installed. I don't
remember the way I did it before, but this time was much easier except I have to reconfigure X. I
see the Nvidia logo which means that they were installed, I just need to configure X to use them.
What is the command line? I could have swarn there was a command line for it! Thanks (again)! F...

I have BINDS installed on my Linux box and was wondering how you use it. For the fact that it is a

I'm wondering if anyone has ever used SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 as a regular desktop Linux
distro? I use mine as a local test server, but I'm thinking of installing it on my laptop (it
has mobile features in it!) and dual booting with XP. Maybe not in the near future or anything. It
doesn't come with software like OpenOffice.org like some other versions have (Xandros for
example, and I think Fedora Core 4) and it is very limited except on server stuff. Well, I am new to
Linux so I wouldn't exactly know what 'limited' was on a Linux system. ...

Well, my dad's office needs to upgrade it's primary server that's currently running
Redhat 7.2, and I need recommend him a distro, but I'm stumped between Fedora and SUSE, wut do u
guys think? If you want to recommend other distros, please tell me, and state the reason. Thanks!

I am about to reach through the screen and stangle that scrawny little penguin! Here is my problem.
I am at work and need a way to access files and printers on the Windows 2003 domain. I have to use
Red Hat Linux 8.0, it is a requirement for the software that I am testing. I have read somewhere
that I need at least version 3.0 of Samba but the only version for RH8 is 2.2.5. I have had a
similar problem with Evolution. Is there any way of getting connected to my domain or should I just
give up?...

Hi Due to the price of CPanel that will be out the window if I build a server, the OS I will be
using is RedHat Linux as its free. Are there any CPanel alternatives that are compatible with this?
Thanks...

I have been forced into quite a conor at work these days and here is my problem. The project that I
am working on requires Redhat 8.0 with as few updates as possible in order to support the baseline
of the reviewed software. I would like to check my email while in Linux via the built in Evolution.
I ran the setup for Evolution and there is no option for Microsoft Exchange server. I have done
some digging around the net and have found that you need at least version 1.4.6 for the option to be
present. My current version is 1.0.8-10. I have run up2date and it says tha...

I'm thinking to start my own server and have never used any Linux or Unix OS before. I'm
looking for the easiest, least code/programming, most buttons-click-customizing server friendly to
MySQL, Apache, webmail, pop3, smtp, videostreaming and all that Linux/Unix OS out there. It must be
free and easy to download. All suggestions are welcome! Thank you....
