ok, does anyone have a illegal copy of redhat available for download?
a matching copy of apache would be a plus (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) of so, i'll take brad's box this weekend and put a linux on it and install php and mysql and move the BBS over. Andy |

I hope you're kidding about Apache. It's a free download here.

Redhat is free. The fastest local mirror is ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/redhat/redhat/linux/9/en/iso/ for the CD images.
Apache, and I think PHP come with it as RPMs, but I usually compile apache from scratch, just so you know what's in it. I can burn you a set of CDs if you want. I have all the ISOs pre-downloaded. Fiid. |

Nope. Not tonight. The new box needs a hard drive. The box "I" was going to put into place already had everything on it.. including my email.. so I cant just move it and have email down for 4-5 days before it goes into the cage.
I'll pick up a new HD for the donated box tomorrow from some place up here. B |

I liked it also until I found out 99% of my email spam was coming from companies who ran scripts against the old dgi.net html pages to strip our email addresses out of it. BULLSHIT.
Set your login up to have an email sent out when somebody post something new.. I enjoy NOT having to look at it every day. Or.. better yet.. email the person at DGI.net to make the old one run again so we dont have to maintain this one. B |

As I have learned (more) in the last few days, configuration and tuning can make a world of difference on stability and performance of Wintel-based apps. (I had a huge semi-mission critical app go live at Boeing Seattle on Monday...yikes).
If you guys really want stability...move it to a Sun box with dual everything and Apache or iPlanet. I am pretty platform-neutral as I make about half my money from Wintel and half from UNIX; but I have yet to see a Windows box that will stay up continuously for 6-12 months. Including fairly major config or software changes along the way. Enough said. Anyhow...I have what might be a dumb or offensive question so please don't take it the wrong way...but is this sucker (BBS) getting backed up? It sure would suck to have a drive bite the dust and lose all of this hard work of Andy/Jeroen/Brad etc. Not to mention all the archived content and pics. Just wondering.
