gnu/Linux for Grandma, Part 2
by Trevor Warren 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

Linux for Grandma, Part 2 Our Free Software guru takes a look at new releases of Mandrake and the Gnome desktop, with an eye toward bringing one more Linux user online. Matthew Newton, PC World Friday, April 02, 2004 As I explained in my last column, I've got a mission: to bring the Web to my grandmother. She's a computer novice who's going to have a nitro-burnin' IBM Thinkpad pulling the Internet out of the air so she can sit out on her patio and e-mail me about how lovely the weather is down south. The Thinkpad will be running Linux, so when I visit her, I won't have to spend time clearing adware and spyware and viruses from her machine. And she won't care what operating system the notebook is running, which is fine with me. She shouldn't have to think about her operating system--that's my job. http://www.pcworld.com/reviews/article/0,aid,115411,00.asp -- ( >- -< ) /~\ __ Scaling FSF/OS in the __ /~\ | \) / Enterprise : trevor.w(a)pvision.biz \ (/ | |_|_ \ Call Now: 9820349221 / _|_| \____________________________________/

Hi all, I am doing one R&D and need ur expert help. I have installed and configured PHP-Nuke for our local Intranet, which works very well in my LAN. I also have a modem configured on the same pc, i have a dial-up account with which i connect to the internet. Now after connecting to my ISP i get an IP address, so using the same ip i want to access the intranet from outside world. *** I know that i always have to check the ip address, but that's fine *** Using the ip which i got from my ISP, from my LAN i am able to browse my intranet. I have tried configuring iptables to allow incoming connections on port 80, but i didn't succeed. Please if anyone could help me resolv this issue. Thanking you, Regards, Rajendra Rait.

Why SCO Thinks It Can Win By Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols April 1, 2004 eWEEK Special Report: The Battle over Unix LINDON, UtahIn many pro-Linux circles, it's a given that The SCO Group Inc. can't possibly win in court. Obviously, SCO disagrees. In an exclusive interview, eWEEK.com Linux and Open Source editor Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols visited SCO CEO Darl McBride and Chris Sontag, senior vice president of the SCOsource division, at the company's headquarters in Lindon, Utah. There, they explained why they think SCO can win the legal battle. http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1559939,00.asp -- ( >- -< ) /~\ __ Scaling FSF/OS in the __ /~\ | \) / Enterprise : trevor.w(a)pvision.biz \ (/ | |_|_ \ Call Now: 9820349221 / _|_| \____________________________________/
