I have internet on my Windows box, but not on the Linux one. I was looking
for the packages and burning them to cd for the other computer.
I've been doing a lot of looking around on the web about this too, but so
far not much joy.
And hey, thanks to all that have offered help
Why burn them to CD? Why not mirror them to your Linux box (if you have a distribution that allows unregistered downloads, such as Fedora or Debian), and run an update of the morror occasionally as needed? Then share the files via an FTP or HTTP server.
I've done this for clusters of up to 500 machines. It's pretty effective.
