Re: runlevel

Thanks Craig. I will try it. The only down fall is I will have to change
runlevels when I decide to use server online for browsing. I have
already noticed that ssh responds alot faster from a remote location,
and I am unsure about the http side as the remote had already been to
the site before, so it was in cache. Due to time constraints tonight I
did not clear cache and try again. Can you reccommend a good FTP server
package or is vsftp good enough?
