[OT] 'Scuse me, damn a.o.l.s! Hi readers!
For longer than I care to mention I am a reader of this publication(?!)
and from time to time suggestions surface that put me in trouble.
So recently a notice was published by one N.K. on starved Slack12 distro
which should do the slave work of a _server_.
As those notions are not strange to me (I did 'expert' install few
distros back, on 512M HD, just for fun) and stumbling on computer junk
in my garage decided to do something about it.
So a computer materialised, Slack12 CD contributed the <100 packages +
lilo, connected to local LAN, lynx went on web and everybody happy.
But talking to and shaking finger on the junk could NOT convince it to
start serving.
Now WHAT?!!!
