This question is ( among many other debian-specific questions ) covered
by their documentations, but ok :)
"detect" hardware .. hm .. first of, /etc/modules is a
one-modulename-per-line file is loaded at boottime, so this is the place
where you put the module-names in ( without the path or the .o ). The
detection is imho manually done with debian. Tip is to use modprobe
instead of isnmod to load dependencies of modules, use lspci -v to find
out all pci/Isa/... adapters and chipnames in your computer ... . Linux
module-names are named after chipsetname, not that what the vendor tries
to tell you on the cage ;) ... .

Oh well, command is "modprobe 8139too" or "modprobe 8139cp" or "modrpobe
ne" ... after you found out which one works, put it into /etc/modules.

What did you do and how did it fail?
Rheorical:
How does hardware detection fall into administration?
I would have posted this topic on linux-newbie.

It depends upon the amount of network traffic.
Networking daemons (and the IP filtering code) only consume CPU time
when they're actually doing something, and the amount of CPU time used
is roughly proportional to the amount of work they have to do.
Try it. If the load average is consistently high, you need a faster
CPU. If the hard disk is always busy, you need more RAM. If the box is
mostly idle but it still seems too slow, you need a faster Internet
connection.

SMTP relay.... the BOX is a Cyrix 233Mhz with 64MB ram, (Compaq Presario)
4GB HDD with 2 Lan Cards
i'm going to install Webmin 1.5, and also DHCP for Debian that comes
with Debian (on the web site)
do you gusy thing i can do this with a basic Debian instalation or
should i download all other CD's from the site ? now the commands like
setup on Redhat dont work, how come ? do i need to install any thing
else ?
leter on i'm going to install a 2nd HDD and Squid and BIND and some AV

I think so, firewall, dns, dhcp, smtp, squid should really be there.

RedHat may use scripts to "help" you that just work on Red Hat. tldp.org
and similar offer the "everywhere-working" Documents :)

How about Courier for the smtp part?
As Kev said a web based config would be nice and courier comes with
courier webadmin - nice thing to get your setup up and running.
and it some graylisting facilities as well

Hi,
I'm new to Linux, so i'm paling to install a gateway, with the following,
1. Firewall
2. DNS
3. DHCP
4. SMTP (relay only)
5. Email Virus Scaning
6. Gray Listing (email)
7. NAT
8 Web Cashing
9. Web Based Configuration tool for all above.
can any one tell me the best Linux version to use, (RedHat, Debian, etc)
and the software i can use, like DNS = BIND, some thing simple to use...
the Box will be a P2 with 256MB ram but if i can get it to work on a P1
166Mhz that would be great....
thanks
Kev

Hi Kev
I won't recommend any specific distro, as that's pretty much a religious
decision ;)
But...

I'd go with Bind. There are others, but they've even been worse than
Bind IMO. However, make sure it's configured as restrictive as possible
- DNS has some protocol specific security issues.

No idea

QMail or Sendmail should both do the job just fine. If you are only
relaying anyway, you could however just set up SpamAssassin.

AMaViS

Errr... what?

Comes with the Linux kernel, it's more or less built into the firewall code.

Webmin (comes with most distros, AFAIK)

Should work fine on a P1/166. Depends on how complex your firewall rules
are, and the amout of mail you want to process. Mail Virus Scanning is
rather CPU intensive.
Hope this helps
