Next message: Martin Maney: "Re: [LUNI] Questions on RH7 for firewall and ftp server..."
while I like the lrp distro, the issue of requiring
a non-anon ftp server does pose a problem with a 486, 16mb.
of course this depends on what is being ftp'd, but
lrp ceases to be lrp (the way it was intended to run) when
leaving hard drives hooked up and mounted.
Just a thought. I am happy to be wrong about LRP and mounted
hard drives :) I just have not done it that way yet.
