I have found that Postfix is easier to configure and at least on the machines I run *much* faster then Exim. YMMV but on Debian it is several times faster than Exim. This is why I use it.
Because the mail server is a bad place to block spam. It has to be done before that. And because an MTA is a bad tool for blocking spam. Now assuming that we are going to block spam on the server (gawd knows I and everybody I know does even though it is *not* the best solution it is at least part of an ok solution) the tool that you should be using is procmail. Now comes the plug. The Debian packages of postfix uses procmail by default and a *good* spamfilter that works with procmail is only a apt-get install away. So a book on an MTA would not be the right place to talk about it. Go forth and search on procmail.
I agree with you %100 when I worked on a Novell based network I *loved* NDS. It is a great product. I don't know so much about putting it on Windows 2000. I would rather have it on some form of Unix (http://www.novell.com/documentation/lg/ndsedir/do cui/index.html#../taoenu/data/a7f7od5.html) but to do it right you do need Caldera.
myself (gabber rules) but I would donate a dollar to help fight this madness. Now if every user of GAIM and everyone who thinks this is wrong would donate a dollar they just might be able to win this thing. If there is any interest email me and I will look at putting such an effort together.
No the hang up there was not the hangup with Debian is that Debian does not put "non-free" software in main and the KDE people did not want to put it in non-free. It is fine to distribute GPLed and non-free software together just fine. The main chunk of "proprietary" software that they are talking about here is the code to make it work well with Novell and a couple of admin tools and some stuff they got when they bought SCO. None of which has any real analog that is GPLed. So no that is not the problem. So it is natural that Ransom would do this and udner the terms seems legal as well. BTW I go to a LUG with most of the Caldera developers and not one of them agree with this. But it is about the only Linux job in town.:(

I was wrong. After reading this thread I went and poked around the site a little bit Google is already a portal they have just done it so well most of us don't know it. http://www.google.com/help/features.html Very cool stuff.
I've used a couple of the ads there and that is ~2 more then I've used from any other site. Having said that the search engine is not where they make their money. They make it by leasing the software/hardware and yes that is a *very* lucrative market.

I don't think so. The times they are changing. All of the sites you mention went IPO or where publicy held when being a "portal" was the next big thing. Well most people now understand that that whole idea is dead. Also Google puts the public search engine up because it has low marginal costs and pays for itself. Their real business is leasing the software/hardware to other businesses who want to use them as a backend. (This has been talked about in other threads here.) Think about Google is now the search engine part of Yahoo. They are everything the sites you mention where not making a nice profit and a solid model for making money. Having said that I don't think now is the right time for an IPO and think they would be better holding off for 6 months to a year. But the search engine part is already paying for itself so I think we are safe.
Look at the post now clearly it should have been SSH but aside from that he was programming the VCR. I for one would really like to be able to do that. For those nights when I find myself at the office when The Simpsons comes on to be able to SSH into my VCR and turn it on.:)Or being lazy to be able to SSH from downstairs to the VCR when I don't want to get up just then. So that just answers your first question. I do agree though that I would rather have everything be ethernet and just support standards and let me do what I want from there.
Once the computer knows about what you want your kernel to look like you don't need to ever tell it again. make oldconfig will do the right thing untill the next major version or you want a new feature that the computer does not know about.
Bah there are two bug reports against it as of Friday. Both for the same thing and it looks like both are in the process of being fixed in ~8 days 1.6 will be in Woody. And of course if you look the bug had nothing to do with Gnucash. It was simply a matter of the maintainer fixing the depends and that is a Debian thing. Life on the bleeding edge and all that.
Unstable has had a snapshot for weeks. Based on this most people I know and talk to on #debian think it will be very soon that the release version will make it in and from there it will only be a few days before it is in Woody. I love Woody and have had really good luck with it.
Funny apt-get install gnucash has been doing the right thing for months and only one package (granted this on a machine that already had the base Gnome and GTK stuff. Oh wait you use one of those other distros. Gawd I love Debian.
My current boss has it. They are in most of Utah county now and yes they are still coneected but last I talked to him not taking new people. I've been hoping for years they would make it to the SLC area but now it looks like they won't.:(

"I want the ability to filter cookies based on the domain they came from./. cookies - Yes. Doubleclick - No.
" Mozilla can do this
"I want the ability to filter images based on the domain and/or size (no more 1x1 web bugs)" Mozilla can filter based on domain or site. Mozilla makes it really easy to turn JavaScript off can not do it based on domain that would be a cool wishlist bug I think. And of course 90% of the time turning off Javascript will make popup adds etc go away. Mozilla on a Windows machine can give you much of what you want. In particular if you are like me and don't want the Javascript stuff on most of the time. With the -turbo switch it is every bit as fast as IE 5. Have fun.
I don't have a link just at the moment but there is a trailer with that in it. *Very* funny of course. I have always agreed with David Drake that the credits are just great. I wonder if this is the unrelease footage that Comedy Central was going on about a few years ago.
Assuming that you are right (and I have no reason to think you are not) This guy proves a very good point (http://java.sun.com/people/jag/) while certainly well educated he also has a *very* wide range of skills and things he likes to do. I think he proves that to really do well one needs a good mix of education and experince.
Better than that would be to just set the whole thing up to tunnel over SSH using public keys by default. This has the advantage of being dead easy to do. While you could set this up very easily today it would be cool it have to set it up to do something else. I think if this was the default far more people would use it and the world would be a better place.

Integration with Novell products. If you need tight full intergration that works with something made by Novell they are the people to talk to.

And while I don't know about other versions of Linux/Unix, in Debian it is integrated and just works by defualt a very sweet solution indeeed.
