TUX is dead. There has not been any new development on TUX for about
4 or 5 years, now. Also, this mailing list is almost dead--I'm only
subscribed because I forgot about it. Unless you want to write the
updates, y ourself, TUX will never work on a recent 2.6 Linux kernel.

But TUX is also completely unnecessary, today--the 2.6 kernel can
provide nearly the same static file serving performance as an the 2.4
kernel did with TUX, and the stability is significantly better. TUX
died because it no longer serves a purpose.

If you want to serve static files very efficiently, and you want to
support large numbers of simultaneous HTTP sessions, then there are
some modern options. Nginx is the current favorite, I think.
