Topic: 6.03b - Available Contribs?

[Jim Danvers]

I know....  search, look in contribs.org, etc....

Quickly though - there are a few contribs that I really like that I've used/using on my 5.6u4 machine and would like to utilize on the 6.03b one that I just built if they are availble or are known to work w/6.

Wondering about:

1:)  I use a services panel contrib that allows one to go in and toggle various services on and off (I don't need appletalk for instance).  Anyone know if there is one (or if the one I'm presently using) will work on 6.0?

2:)  I also use another one that allows for user space web pages - creates the web space on the fly as new users are added.  Users then hit thier web space via http://smeserver.whatever.whatever/~username

3:)  I have seen some chatter about some sort of dhcp client leases/mgmt panel thing - I also have one of those for 5.6 that lets you view leases...  

4:)  I have also seen some chatter about gallery - sounds like someone (Dan Brown?) has it working on 6.0, but there are some hoops that need to be jumped through??  That (gallery) is great and wasn't that big a deal to get working on my 5.6 box.

....  thats about all that comes to mind at present....

Thanks guys!

(( I'm going to keep searching / looking... just thought I'd throw the question(s) out to see if perhaps I can get some assistance!    ))

For gallery, the only "hoop" is installing the netpbm RPMs from my contrib area, rather than using the links in the HOWTO.  I really should update that some day...

 What contrib do you use for this ? Is there a howto? Was it easy to install etc?
Thanks,

del... see marco's reply.  ( worked formy 5.6 box)

Marco - I tried this on the 6.0 machine and it didn't seem to fly...  ;(  Have you been able to get it to work on 6.0?
