This reminds of a project I'd love to start to help the disadvantaged gain valuable work skills in our new network economy, and at the same time, spread the gospel of Linux.
The project goes as such: find people with older computers that they're tossing to the wayside because the upcoming release of Win2k won't run on anything but a PIII-600 with a terabyte of RAM, install Linux on those puppies, and provide them to disadvantaged folks (inner-cities, rural areas, third world, etc.) and let them have a chance to learn some programming and sys admin skills (maybe get hackers to volunteer an hour or two a week to teach a course).
I just finished a book that talked a lot about affirmative action, and how bad it is because a.a. only REINFORCED our old views on race (i.e. superiority of whites, giving to the blacks; inferiority of blacks, taking a hand-out). We need to start giving people opportunities for development and chance to better themselves on their own -- not giving them hand-outs!
This segfaults for me everytime a connection is initiated/proxied. Of course, the target platform suggests RH5.0 whereas I'm running RH6.0. Anyone else having similar problems with RH6.0?

OK. I'm done ranting.
