I've just given up. I'm off to MicroCenter for a new big hard-drive - the current plan is get that installed, copy a bunch of data to it, and re-build from scratch. I hope to have a running system with Exim, Mailman, mutt and a web-mail client working before I go to bed tonight.

I think what happened is that my dist-upgrade decided to install X - which I don't use, and there was no room for. :-(

Two environments - Windows XP, and Debian console. What would you recommend, and why?

I have a functioning Apache2. Now all I need to do is get my data into it.

exim is running - but I don't think mail is getting in to me yet. (ETA: Duh. It helps to restart the service after updating the config files.) E-mail is working.

sshd is working - I can ssh from my WinXP box to the server

I can't tell if mailman is working - ask me again after I know exim is working. I do know that I'm going to have to reconfigure some stuff, and recreate all my lists. :-( Liad and Liaden Universe News are first on the list.

Oh - I haven't installed a webmail client yet.

On the good new front - 500GB of /home, 120GB of /, and I'm going to moving spool to a dedicated 19GB partition at some point in the future. I hope to just move mail and print spooling.
