I attempted to start a linux user group here and initially named it Payson Linux User Group. A couple of us decided to create our own linux distro. Now I am the only one still involved as the others have moved away and don't do much anymore. Now I am working on a version that only works with LDAP so I can use it at work. Several others have shown interest in using linux, and I would like to pursue more with my distro. I also consult beside my normal job, which my business is called Payson Computer Services, and paysonlinux goes hand in hand with it. nathan On Monday 26 June 2006 14:18, you wrote: > Is that what you are calling your home-grown distribution?
