Thx again, usefull info

Now all I have to do is get the funds for a rig and get the linux magic to work ... oh oh

BTW, we got a sucky usb adsl modem (die groene pijlstaartrog-modelletjes) so can't connect it to a switch even if I wanted to

waiting for this contract to end so we can switch to cable

if you want a router, try clarkconnect. redhad9 based distribution with nice web interface. I also used this in the beginning on my router: I had a great router by default, and I could toy with the software on it whenever I feeled like (setting up samba, ftp server, webserver). you can configure it either by web-interface or by SSH (commandline)

But I'll look this clarckconnect up after I have a rig and after I have linux running on it.. 1 step at a time ey

nonono. you install clarkconnect on the P1 and you're started

graphical system is not required to learn linux. if you're learing it, you can only use the GUI as eye-candy. some distros provide graphical configuration tools, but who needs those anyway

let me check if I get this:

clarckconnect is a program that sort of turns your pc into a router and it's based on red hat linux?

If so, that'd be awesome

Don't have to spend money on a new rig and I can enjoy the safety of linux

Thx Teus
