Here's a question: I've got Knoppix 3.6 HD installed. Since I'm behind a router, how should I go about configuring Knoppix/KDE to use 192.168.1.1 as a gateway to the Internet?

one last linux noob question: i set up my swap partition in PartitionMagic and formatted the target partition as Ext3 in PartitionMagic as well. Now that it's HD installed, is there anything special i have to do to "activate" the swap, or does it do that by itself automatically? (the swap is on 'hda3')

Swap partitions are different.
I didn't use partition-magic for years, but make partitions with fdisk, where I choose a number for a linux-swap from a list - I try to remember it as 83, while normal linux-partitions are 82 - but not sure.
For the swapdrive I then call
and finally

heres another question: when i enter:
mkswap /dev/hda3
it works just fine, but when i enter:
swapon /dev/hda3
i get this message:
swapon: /dev/hda3: Device or resource busy
is swap on? how do i tell if it is on? what does this error message mean?
P.S. Thanks everyone for your help thus far.

swapon /dev/something
isn't used, but
my suggestion (swapon solely) wasn't correct too.
shows if it's used.

Your swap partition being used by knoppix. Usually knoppix will autodetect swap partition and use it.

thanks for the help, my knoppbox runs great now! I now have a few apache-related questions.
I've used apache before under Win2k Pro, but never before under *nix. I'm getting some weird errors when i start apache:
root@knoppbox:~# /etc/init.d/apache start
Starting web server: apache[Thu Sep 23 23:19:11 2004] [warn] module ssl_module is already loaded, skipping
failed
I am trying to run virtual servers. Could they be interfering in some way? Any other ideas?
Addtionally, does Knoppix come with an FTP server? If not, what's a good one, and where/how can I get it? Also, what about SMTP/POP3?

I believed it has something to do with your httpd.conf, please check, maybe your path is wrong, maybe your virtual host.
I'm using kanotix, it comes with ftpd as ftp server. I think knoppix do comes with it to. Try : locate ftpd. A good one, I don't know.
Knoppix comes with smail. But I never use it. It's too complicated. I used xmail as my smtp/pop3 server.Plenty of filter to use. It's very good and easy to setup, plus they have good forum like this one.
xmailserver.org/
This is a good guide how to setup xmail;

For webmail, I use uebimiau, php based imap/pop.

type
and you see ftp-related programs, with brief description, which should tell you, which of them is a server.
