About This Month's Authors

Bob Sparks

Bob is a computer consultant working in the homelessness and housing areas. He works with Linux and "other" OSs. He likes Linux because it is a better OS, and because it is budget friendly for shallow pocketed non-profits. His hobbies include: reading, writing, wife, kids, & grandkids. He can be reached at [email protected].

Dean Staff

Dean Staff is a manager at NovoClub, a computer bookstore in Ottawa, Canada. He is a writer for Linux Journal. When not at work Dean enjoys spending time with his wife and two daughters and playing with his aquarium.

Dan York

Dan is a technical instructor and the training manager for a technology training company located in central New Hampshire. He has been working with the Internet and UNIX systems for 13 years. While his passion is with Linux, he has also spent the past two-and-a-half years working with Windows NT. He is both a Microsoft Certified System Engineer and Microsoft Certified Trainer and has also written a book for QUE on one of the MCSE certification exams. He is anxiously awaiting the day when he can start teaching Linux certification classes.

Not Linux

Thanks to all our authors, not just the ones above, but also those who wrote giving us their tips and tricks and making suggestions. Thanks also to our new mirror sites.

I decided to put out an EXTRA issue this month for three reasons:

I get so much mail asking for help, I hate to make them wait so long before it gets posted. I know as soon as I post they get answers to their questions. You guys are so generous with your time and expertise.
I didn't want to wait any longer to put the Corel Conference article up.
Third, the article by Bob Sparks was actually supposed to be in issue 38, but I inadvertently left it out of the Table of Contents. My apologies to Bob.

At any rate, I've thought it would be nice to have an abbreviated mid-month issue for some time, so here it is. Enjoy!

Have fun!
