Hi Fellows ! What tools could I use to measure the performance of my Linux box ? Is there any SAR or IOSTAT ? or something like that ?

-----Original Message----- From: Andrew Diederich [mailto:andrew@NETdelivery.com] Sent: Monday, September 11, 2000 2:38 PM To: 'suse' Subject: [SLE] updates for 7.0 To folks who put files on the non-US ftp sites: could you put openssh and the like on the non-US sites when you release a new SuSE version? I understand you don't want to put the full distro up for a bit so people buy the retail version, but it really hurts the US folks who either have to do without ssh, hope an old version works, or compile it locally. ========================================================= That's an excellent request for 7.0. Hopefully will be included in the US release in the future since the RSA patents are about to expire and crypto laws are changing for the better.

thank you Christopher for advice i'll try to get it installed. -----Original Message----- From: Christopher D.

The internal modems are the ones that you have to watch out for since some (i.e., windows modem) don't have their software in hardware and must use a special driver (i.e., typically, windows-only). The diamond/supra external modem should work fine.

I use this pppoe app and it works excellent. I recommend this one also. /Dee -----Original Message----- From: Corvin Russell [mailto:corvinr@sympatico.ca] Sent: Monday, September 11, 2000 9:27 AM To: suse-linux-e(a)suse.com Subject: Re: [SLE] ADSL What client you'll need to make the connection depends on whether your ISP uses PPPoE or not, and whether or not you use a router. Unfortunately, my ISP uses PPPoE over Nortel's "1-Meg Modem", and that's why I am able to recommend to you Roaring Penguin's PPPoE client. It's available at http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe/ Now for a bonehead question. Can someone point me to a resource that explains how DSL works, i.e. what exactly is required to make a direct DSL connection between two arbitrary machines over a phone line, besides the router and appropriate client software on one end? I.e. what does the "host" machine need to have?
