When this network came into existance, my boss knew more about sewing thatn he did \
about networking, therefore we have a class B network, the Linksys router will only \
work on a class C network.  We do have the Netgear cable/dsl reouter, but its \
                performance doesn't seem to be up to par for a network with 120 pc's \
                on it.

  If you are just looking for a routers the linksys dsl routers work nice. If you \
want VPN capability too, Scott found a wicked deal with www.linuxmagic.com for a \
vpn/firewall.

    Finally, we are able to use Linux at the Windows world where I work.  We need an \
internet router and we have decided to use Linux, we are also going to make a dmz in \
the near future for our email(Exchange) server, but that is another topic.  
    I have installed rh7.0 on a hp and didn't make a boot disk (bad mistake).  When I \
rebooted, I got the big L and nothing else.  THere was Win2000 server on this pc \
before and maybe I didn't clena the boot sector before loading linux.  I can clear \
the boot sector now with fdisk /mbr.    
    My question is how to make a Linux boot disk and fix Lilo without being able to \
run linux ???
