Ok I have now come to the conclusion that microsoft are a pain in the
@rse...

Sorry just had to get that out....

As you may have gathered I had some issues with my server machine..(dont fix
what isnt broke)great motto that....

Anyway... I formatted the c drive on my win2k server machine reinstall win2k
no problem tried to install sP4 corrupt file.... ok I thought I will just
install a firewall & download SP4... no firewall software.. 5 times I ended
up formatting & reinstalling the os before I managed to download a firewall
& SP4..

Ok... where is this going. I run 4 websites on my server machine 1 of these
has a forum for the counterstrike clan im in. I've had it with windows &
want to put it on my Linux machine but don't really have any idea how to
setup 4 apache servers... (quite easy in windows.)

1.Things I am worried about I have broadband 1m - using Alcatel usb modem
fish thing... when I tried the live version of SUSE9.2 It wouldn't let me do
the equivalent of DUN... Is this easy to setup????

2. If It Is quite easy can I make the machine a gateway like my server
machine at the moment..( I assume I will have to edit some file to make my
machine have my gateway IP ADDRESS???

3. I love computers....

P.S thanks everyone who replied to my last query regarding installing my new
drive.... After taking out the drive & running in failsafe mode. Linux asked
to I want to remove the drive usr to which I said yes.. I removed the link &
then fixed its self.....

Thanks again

Dave
