I’m also trying to rig up a new webserver that’s on Fedora so I can get regular updates to the packages. I installed Fedora Core 3, test 2. It’s been patching itself for a few hours now. Hopefully after that I can get the mail up and running. Then I’ll work on the webserver. Maybe I’ll try and get the campage back up and running too, now that my wireless network is actually extant.
It appears the problem was my base station. Or at least that’s my latest suspicion. We’ll see how long I can manage to stay online.
finally got my netgear wireless router to start working right. It was a problem with the firmware. I had installed the “latest” beta. I pulled it back one revision and whammo I’m up and cruising. Also upgraded my main compy to a wireless adapter.
I tried to get my old PCMCIA card to work with my new laptop only to find out that Ashton Digital, the maker of the NIC, has probably gone out of business. At the least they forgot to reregister their domain. So much for their 3 year warranty… And now I can’t find my install CD. Luckily I did have a USB NIC I could use. It’s only a B but that’s enough to eRas in with.
