well.... guess from which OS I'm loged in? ... and my browser?
does anybody knows which is my browser right now? (we'll see if it can post messages)
yessss, my dear friends... I'm surfing with zipslack for the very first time!! ..in truly complete console mode..
can't belive it!!! jajajajjaaaaaaaaaaaajajajaj!!!
thanks again to all of my friends in here to make it possible. I'm so glad.
(let me continue testing this beauty..)
gonna post again in a few hours...
PD: I love at all of you!!

((back in M$ graphics mode))

Yessss.......... I'm in!! ajaja
you don't know how happy I am...
it was really hard to get the internet with just a minimal distro like zipslack.. (little, yes...but so powerful)

Don't gonna tell now all the stuff about winmodems and hard ones -you know what I'm talking about-
Just want to tell that here is really difficult to find a hardmodem... I only found one place where to buy one (a new external one) .. but it was so expensive .... when I get the money, they told me "you want it, but we dont have that hard anymore ..and we don't know if they're gonna arrive again.." ... finally I found one of second hand..
(an used and expensive one) ... and blablabla...
..and then..to make it work! zipslack doesn't have GUI ... all at the "old fashon" console style... (that's what I most like of it) ... so, people was very important (yet so important!!) to show me and teach another people there is an alternative to win stuff.

masand: thanks a lot... I have learn some useful things about configurin'
a connection... you're wonder how I get my isp's dns numbers? belive me when I tell you I don't remember... it's been a long time since I got'em, when I begun searching things to connect with slack.. guess I found such numbers in the net..

gbonvehi, I can't belive it: searching in the other side of the word, in a foreing language, an unknown gave me the answer... and he's from the same country than me!! simple incredible... //gonna stay in touch.

wanna say thanks to ALL the people in here... always traying to help... and you do!!

and for last.. xushi.. no bad feelings ..maybe it was just a misunderstanding.

I love U all.

good trhat u found ur ISP no.

i was going next to ask you to run ur own DNS server

regards

masand, i wouldnt mind doing that! i have an old machine dying to make use of...

Does it take alot of bandwidth?

Do you have any tutorials on how to set one up?

Thanks.

well u just need to install caching nameserver
and run ur bind service
that will just do
and u won't a need a different machine for that


fos slackware
just enable rc.bind service
and ur IP to /etc/resolv.conf

regards

Where can i get that from?

EDIT: hmm, it seems like its already set up in slackware.. I just execute rc.bind and it does the job.

that caching nameserver is a package in redhat/fedora

for slackware

rc.bind as u mentioned is enough

regards
