I got Caldera OpenLinux 5 days ago. The first 2 days I thought it was s**t, but now I wish I could stay home all day with it. Lots to learn, but I think it'll be worth it.

I just wish people would do a little reading or research first before they start sending out this type of message, "What can Linux do for me?" There are a bunch of articles or websites that explain what Linux is and what it can do for you (and to you, too). Just spend a little time searching around and don't be so lazy, sitting on your butt and say, "So I have downloaded Linux, no what?" Lawrence

So you got linux. Play around with it. Plenty of web sites just for newbie linux users. I use a linux machine as a router/firewall for my home network. One dsl internet connection into the house with multi computers using the web. I'm currently building a machine just for Redhat 7.3. I already downloaded and created the disc's. I want a mail server and maybe host my own website. RH 7.3 should help me set this up. I don't know how to do it yet, but you can bet I'll read all I can find and explore the web should I run into any problems. If I still can't fix a problem that comes up, I can alway post the problem here. By giving as must details as I can, it will help those who help us. Don't give up on linux. You too will enjoy what linux has to offer. Best of luck to you. Rex

When you installed Linux you should have had the option to install as a server or desktop. Not quit sure on the terms they used. Anyway, just go to www.redhat.com and there you will find out how to install as a server along with a lot of information. Also, I beleive the CD's you created have the documention on them. A little reading and a little research is all you need. Remember back when you first started using Windows? Did you know all the functions (or lack there of)? Do you know anything about DOS? We just have to unlearn windows and start doing things right by using linux. I'm not a point and click dude. I want to get inside and down & dirty. I going to install and learn how to make computing fun and easy with no crashes. I'm switching to the TUX, shouldn't everyone? Rex

the question should not be what can I do with linux it should be what I can not do with it. Linux can do everything Windows can do. It a desktop -openoffice equals to microsoft office, it has many broswer to surf the net, it has email client that are similar to outlook, It can be a sever file sharing, print sharing, firewall, router, and most of this is free I think that pretty cool. If only a couple thing it fails on which are: games, groupware, and directory services. However, they keep add more every day and geting better ever. Who knows by the time. who knows by the time this posted there might already come out on a better games(I heard sony make there playstation on linux.) IBM is working hard on geting groupware on linux Notes work ok but still needs more delevopement. Finally and this where I see nothing other then ebones coming close to resolve this problem The directory services but not even close to novell or microsoft when comes easy of use, I really hope Novell ports there NDS onto linux I be the first in line to get that distro
