I have a couple extra Red Hat 5.2 CD's - bring me a blank
on Tuesday and we can trade. If you want SuSE, I'll bring
plent of those.
WARNING: I set up SuSE as a router for my LAN on Road Runner.
It's DHCP client does not work well. In fact, after a few
hours, it will drop all routing on that interface. Red Hat's
DHCP client works fine. I tried to use Red Hat's DHCP client
on the SuSE system, but did not succeed.
