Re: TUX installation

he is saying TUX is deprecated. nginx, proftpd, the static file serving f=
eatures (that i am not really to explain) etc are more suitable, modern, =
supported yet still free (with a small mem footprint for the task you des=
cribed). i am sorry if i am wrong assuming english is a second language f=
or you, but the gist is, TUX is no more.  its not a matter of agreement, =
its just that this noble but obsolete code no longer serves any beneficen=
t function. i loved it in 04, but since linux kernel 2.6, it is irrelevan=
t. i hope all see i am not being sarcastic but trying to be helpful. good=
 luck, i miss TUX too, but new stuff is afoot.
