Lewis, =


Good to see your presence here on the list. Spurs things up a bit. <g> =


Regarding topics, I am now in the throws of understanding WinXP Pro on my=

new  A31p and it's wireless networking component. Not even thinking of
venturing  into the wireless aspect of eCS v1.1 just yet, I'm just
stumbling my way  through with plans of ultimately wiping the recovery
partition (8GB of FAT32)  and acquiring the Recovery CD to eventually hav=
e
both opsyses on my 40GB  drive. So, something along the lines of wireless=

setup for home DSL users for  eCS v1.1 would be of keen interest to me.
Also, the switching from wireless to  wired would be essential knowledge
for those same users, being that it appears  much easier a task under Win=
XP
Pro. =


THEN, I would think setting up the security of these networks would be =

appreciated  by these same home users, even though I'm sure administrator=
s =

might benefit from a more in depth analysis of where the holes are and ho=
w =

best to plug them with an eye toward some of these home users bringing
their  wireless machines to work and wanting to incorporate them into the=

corporate  structure and what concerns this will bring. =


Finally, I'm thinking a brief discussion of specific transceivers, their =

manufacturers and the related drivers issue might help prospective wirele=
ss
 purchaser make up their minds as to which machines to purchase. I know t=
he
 help I received here was most beneficial in directing my purchase. I fee=
l =

comfortable that I can bring up my wireless network on both opsyses witho=
ut
 incident nor will I have to wait to do so. And, I'm thinking the driver
for my  ActionTec PRISM mPCI adapter may have beneficial modifications
implemented  more quickly than a more recently released version for one o=
f
the other ones. =


BTW, where are you planning to speak? It seems Houston, TX never gets muc=
h =

action in this regard unless it's a Microsoft production (which are
generally  HUGE) even though by their nature they are very superficial.
But, Austin is  only a 2 1/2 hour drive for me and I LOVE that area. <G> =

Oh, yeah. Very much an interesting topic for understanding under eCS. =
