woo-hoo!
I downloaded the iso of the downloadable version of Libranet (which
isn't that far behind the current $50 version - has kernel 2.4.3, the
latest has kernel 2.4.18...) and the deb for adminmenu is on there.
Works fine. Probly won't use for anything, but I wanted to check it out.
Its funny - it has a gui frontend, but then every module you click on
opens a little xterm, and the work is done there.
