SidewinderAnd yes, duanedesign, I am aware and have used most of the resources that you've kindly listed, above. My main limitation is the fact that my main machine is somewhat of an "antique", {Dell Dimension 4550, circa anout 2003} and is currently maxed out in terms of RAM, video RAM, single processor, etc. I there fore an still running 10.04; am totally satisfied with it but also, realize that I've only got about 5 months to 12.04.14:50
SidewinderI am running 12.04 on my other machine, about a foot and a half, to my left. ;-)14:51
duanedesign:)14:52
SidewinderThe upshot of all of that is that I'm much more of an "expert", {if I may be so bold as to use that moniker, heh,} with 10.04 and most folks are not using that version anymore so there few questions regarding it. I do assist when and where I can, though. ;-)14:53
SidewinderI am currently in the process of learning everything that I can regarding openVPN; I'm hoping to install it in the next few days and pray that it's not to difficult to configure and get up and running. I am aware that there is an #openvpn channel, but it doesn't seem to be too terribly active. Hopefully I won't need it. :)14:57
SidewinderI'm currently on a home network with the rest of my family; unfortunately, they're all windows folks although I have managed to get my youngest son {21} to at least try ubuntu..14:59
SidewinderHe likes it but still uses "7" as his primary OS; nor does he live at home, he's off at college.15:00
