I am installing Debian on a net install and it detects the network card fine but when it comes up to downloading packages it fails :(
Any Ideas?

For real domains, BIND rules

Through a network bridge on another pc, I know this works because when I connect it to my laptop it works and the internet does not work on the ubuntu like cd either.

I know what an OS apache is smooth and no crashes or slowdowns like with server 2003 but I must admit that server 2003 is alot better for the domain controller side you must admit but linux is a true os :)
EDIT: THE ONLY DOMAIN CONTROLLER OUT ISNT IT? LOL

BIND9 is the best domain controller.
win2003 DC is a directory server, and directories are much better with Lotus Domino
