Re: [seul-edu] Win NT w/Linux Server?

In fact you can make Mac versions as early as 7.6.1 have a mandatory
server login - the product is called Maicntosh Manager.  VERY nice
product, too bad it's not standards compliant to get user data from an NIS
domain or something like that.  Also, completely off the topic, I can't
get ypserv-1.3.9 working on Slackware Linux.  Any suggestions -- It won't
compile....

kernel panic:  cannot read from /dev/caffeine.
