the pitty is taht with that you cannot install debian. It has obligation for a 2.6.26 kernel. Slackware is better, because the binutils are done for 2.6.24

Slack is better than debian for old machines !!

Mars_NWE emulator for dos client on IPX network. (Thousand years ago) It was a Restaurant and they needed a Novell server for the 3 client computer to share the centralized clipper database. So we made a RedHat based(7.1 or something I can't remember) Mars Novell emulator server.

And I Implemented a Microsoft ISA(proxy) server clone Squid proxy server into Windows 2003 network. The squid server was Active Directory integrated and the users were denied/permitted through Group-Policy in AD. Friend of mine(M$ administrator) were really pleased to get this thing sorted out by zero money. Based on CentOS 5.3
