:: New ServerThe new server works fine. It is still up and rock steady. The work room workstation boots really fast. Kevin and Dale were impressed. So was I.
:: FreeBox Connection ProblemI tested FreeBox DHCP at the work table, and it worked fine. However, I couldn't ping out from the FreeBoxes I tested with alphanumeric or hard IPs. I tried several gateway IPs, but none worked so I quit testing and continued installing Vector Linux.
There were no DNS or ping issues at the LTSP workstation or the server console.
:: Refurb GodKevin declared himself the refurb God. He repaired a string of misbehaving Dell computers for Dale and me. Actually, I don't think Kevin said "refurb."
Dale and I pointed out the downside of declaring oneself God...in the kindest terms of course. ;^)
:: Best PC Deal Ever?TigerDirect.com is offering a barebones kit which is seductively appealing at $399.99. Nicely upgradable. No OS.
