I have 2 immediate next steps: 1 - Run updates to get everything updated ---- running the Package Updater give an error message - Unable to retrieve update info unable to retrieve software info ---- Network Issue ? As mentioned I have network connectivity via the browser ---- not sure if there may be firewall issues upsteam ? Suggestions ? 2. Start to configure the system into a basic file server: -Goal #1 is to get another PC running XP to login and have access to a folder / file share -Goal #2 do the same thing with a Mac running OSX A lot of the files on <a href="http://k12linux.org/network.html" target="_blank">http://k12linux.org/network.html</a> seem to lead to the dreaded 404 page. Any suggestions on were to start or where to find documentation germane to this distribution -- Help Lastly ----- Can any of you recommend some Linux books or generic reference books on networking (from newbs to intermediate levels) --- I used to do this stuff 16yrs ago but man have I forgot a bunch of stuff THANKS !!!
