Hi Mike, I'll try my best to be at the meeting, but with my wife's schedule, it's not always possible, unless I drag the kid along. When's the next one?

Otherwise it's just the standard 4pin disk drive connectors (three minimum), one floppy drive connector and one motherboard connector.

Power Supply Needed

by John Stoffel

Hi all, Anyone have a Ilssan ISF 120SI compatible Power supply they'd be willing to sell me cheap? This is for an eMachines box that died in a lightning storm. It's for a couple with limited means and I just don't have any spares around the house at all. Specs for what I'm looking for: Input: 100-120VAC 3A Ouput: +3.3V +5V +12V -12V +%VSB 6A 14A 2A 0.3A 0.72A 120W It's a small power supply with a built in Fan that sticks out. More info (web pages for compatible ones) available on request. Thanks, John

Re: [Wlug] RH8.0 user in Worc. area

by Mike Leo

We use RH8 as our primary DNS servers and they are pretty nice. Personally, though, i prefer the apt-get system to do updates. There are plenty of repositories for RH8 around for you to get updates from. I don't think i can help you out, but thought I'd share my experiance on up2date vs apt... also, if you install nmap, you can scan yourself for open ports...thats a quick way to see what holes are open. nmap -sS localhost will work. additionally, running the chkconfig --list|grep on command will show you all the services that are set to be running at any time...its good to shut those down with a quick server whatever stop, the chkconfig whatever off, the latter preventing that service from starting at boot. good luck...hope this helps a little anyway. mike --- Pete Wason <codevark(a)netscape.net> wrote: > Hiall! > > I'm wondering if anybody's using RH8.0 and could > assist me in a general package > updating/security audit/admin session.

I live in Sutton.. > > Pete Hi Pete, If you have a specific question about RH8 I can take a swing at it or you can try the redhat-install list. RH8 has been end of lifed by RedHat. There probably isn't too much in the way of "up-to-date" updates available for it (if any at all). You may want to consider moving to a more recent RedHat product, and if cost is an issue, I recommends the redhat free line - Fedora. FC3 is probably the most stable Fedora release that is currently supported. FC4 has been released but may be a little rougher around the edges. Another distro worthy of consideration is Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/. Also free, but well supported. I urge you to move to a newer distro. The newer kernels are faster, and support better features and hardware. You'll also get better security support and updates. -- speech recognition software was used in the composition of this e-mail Jeff Kinz, Emergent Research, Hudson, MA. Â¡Ya no mas!

Hiall! I'm wondering if anybody's using RH8.0 and could assist me in a general package updating/security audit/admin session. Nothing too crazy, I just need some help grokking alternatives to up2date (yum, etc.) and making sure my server isn't bleeding wildly from it's little pointed head. I live in Sutton.. Pete
