    Dear Group,

    If I post the contents of an E-mail, I sent to LXF (Linux Format
    Magazine) Letters, it would take of 3 Full Pages, on a 17" Monitor,
    and it would only be about Half the problems I had, trying to get a
    Current copy of Fedora Core, on to My PIII 600 Mhz Test Server. And I
    was starting with FC1, but I finally got FC4 to start, and Reboot.

    It has been running, almost Non-stop, for 18 days. Now I realize that
    although I prefer the Gnome GUI, I should have installed it as a
    Text-based Install. Because I can't seem to install any additional
    software, like Exim 4.51, Rootkit Hunter, ClamAV, etc., onto the
    computer.

    My experience goes back to a 4 Year Degree, in Management Information
    Systems, I received in 1977, from Mcgill University, in Montreal,
    Quebec, CANADA. That was the Good Olde Days when We entered everything
    by Punch Card. Alright, I wait a minute, till You all stop laughing.

    Everybody finished now?

    Thank You.

    I may just start over and stick to Text-based, and stop at FC3. If I'm
    reading My System Log properly, somebody has been trying to hack My
    Root Account. SELinux is running, and I don't know if the problems
    that You are all talking about, may be adding to My Problems, but I am
    testing Fedora Core, on My server, for a Website, and will use CentOS
    4.x, for My Workstations, and I don't need the problems.

    So, that's My useless bit of contribution, for this Column.
