Please note that I don't run a server (HTTP or FTP), or some sort of mail advance on these machines. They are only fully functional desktops (multimedia included thanks to Mattias Saou...:-), without embarrasing in Windoze comparison (in fact, I like more my Linux feels...:-). I use NFS and Samba to comunicate both machines, and quite often the laptop with enterprise machines (Windows operated), but a did not run advanced networks. Specially remarkable is the fact that with Fedora Core 1, and by the very first time, the upgrade on laptop was very, very easy (just plug CD's and run...the update with up2date and yum). I've started with Red Hat Linux 6.1 (desktop), then 7.1 (laptop, with too many problems) then 7.3 (upgraded with too many problems, then fresh installed, more problems on laptop...), then 8 (first to fresh installing well, both desktop and laptop, but unable to upgrade quite well from 7.3)...and now, this shining Fedora Core 1.....¡a champion!...:-) -- Saludos, Aurelio Sánchez fae7901 circling terra Spain fae7901 circling yahoo Spain Registered Linux User # 272846 GNU Privacy Guard Public Key available at pgp.rediris.es Created by Ximian Evolution 1.4.5 running on Fedora Core 1
