Q

 

Hello,
Nice work, Ice. Always good to meet a CLI fan.
BTW, are you using Linux, because that's the mother and father of CLI.
Mrk

 

Knoppix & Suse for a few years
trying to play around with Ubuntu and Slackware
Considering Debian, have your guides bookmarked and Im trying to find the time to get very serious about Linux. Right now I know how to fart around but lack an indepth understanding especially of security.

Plan is to totally avoid Vista and Migrate my software to a distro w\ VMware Workstation running W2K
