Hello, This is a loaded question. Some people will answer with cost estimates, others with hardware requirements, and still others with the religious war between the two. Novell is quite stable, and built upon Linux. Novell's email system, Groupwise, can be a pain in the rump to restore an account, …

Hello, An excellent question! Samba will allow you to mount the Microsoft network onto the Redhat Linux box. I do not have time today to do this and write it all out for you. I will add it to the list; perhaps Thursday. Christian

Hi, The big question is: Do you have backups? If so, re-partition and start it over. This is precisely why I do not recommend people use Partition Magic or any other partitioning modification schemes. The partition is the core of your volume... and by moving it around, you are changing …

Hello, I like the cross-platform of MySQL too! While Access might be easier to initially program, I like the ability to use MySQL with Linux and Macintosh too. Christian

Hello, There are some ways to do this. For CPU monitoring (and network), you can look into a package called mrtg that can be setup to monitor CPU processes, and graph it out. It will require you to setup snmpd and other things in order to get it to function …

Hello, It should be. Why? Because you can program the second router to work with the first one via IP information. The IP packets won't distinguish between a wire and an antenna. You will most likely need to program the device via a wire cable to a computer, and you …
