Back
I know I am using an unsupported older version of redhat. I was scared the
newer ones would be to much for my old AMD k6 -2. I have upgraded the hardrive
and the memory but it is still and older computer. OEM Compaq Win 98 quit out
an I needed something. Anyway, the disks come from a "Redhat 7.3 for Dummies"
book, so you know where I am at on the linux learning curve.
Anyway, I installed it and it recognized all my important hardware just fine.
I also updated the ssh certificates for Redhat update agent so that isn't the
problem. It always hangs at 2% when installing the update for xfree86. It
even does this when I do it from the command line with up2date. Can anyone
help?
Also, I wasn't able to create an iptables firewall using the instructions
provided in the Redhat for dummies book. I think it is a different version of
iptables maybe. This book appears to be a newer edition of a book that had
been written for even older versions of red hat, so I figure I am being given
the instructions for the wrong iptables.
