I realize a Prolinea isn't a server, and that is what most here are working with, but... I have picked up a Prolinea 4/66 to use as a router/firewall. I set it up using the Coyote floppy-based firewall setup from http://www.coyotelinux.com with no effort. Works great. I would like to remove the keyboard since I can connect using ssh, but I can't seem to disable the keyboard in the bios in order to boot. I have tried the recommendation for some other machines (Compaq advisory DI981028_CW01: put in a power-on password and enable server mode. This works only for warm-boots, with a screen message that the machine is running in server mode with no keyboard attached. On a power cycle or cold-boot, I still get the silly key icon on the screen with the machine waiting for the power-on password to be entered. Suggestions welcome. -Rob Antonishen.> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: compaqandlinux-unsubscribe@van-dijk.net For additional commands, e-mail: compaqandlinux-help@van-dijk.net For the archives : http://www.van-dijk.net
