I strongly recommend to you to download xine to watch any video. I want
to ask you about your home network. Are you using squid nat?. I am using
NAT and let me tell you something, I have found that linux works better
doing that than windows 2000 server. I am more than happy with my new
server.
In the other hand, I want to ask everybody about irc's meetings. I think
it will be a good way to share information online. As a matter of fact,
sometimes people need answers really quick. This list is really good,
but some answers cannot wait for some impatient people.
Anyway, I would like to know what I can do with my new server. I mean, I
would like to know by someone else what other interesting things I can
do with a linux's machine as a server. I am not talking about mail, www,
samba, and so. I am talking about new things.
Thanks Diego

That's great news! I work solely off of linux as well. I still have a
win98
machine for my wife though because she does not like Linux. Only
because
she is use to windows. That's fine with me.
I switched to Linux because I needed a real OS. Also I wanted to take
advantage of the the Open Source software. I find it quite conducive to
my
Cisco studies.
www.freshmeat.net is a good source for any programs you are looking for.
