Matt: Being that these machines are school computers there would be little that you could do with them. They are obviously networked, and set up so that the sites that the administrators of your school system want blocked are blocked. In my mind, using a computer to cause another to shutdown is not ethical or fun - this is because you are using the command prompt to do something that I think most people would frown upon. If someone was actually doing an important assignment and you caused a remote shutdown of a machine, the person could lose data, and this could cause damage to the person wh

Good evening! I just figured out how to start a gnome desktop as root when logging in via VNC, but I had to do a "gnome-session" command at the # prompt. Is there a way to get rid of all the other junk that is in xstartup file so that I can always start gnome, and get rid of this grey screen? I'll need some help here, because I dont wanna run root wide open like this. any help you can give me on thgis would be appreciated...... Thanks, Brian

Hello everyone: I just wanted to post a quick update to my status as of late, as I have not been around for an extended time period. I have been dealing with family issues, because my Grampa Baker Died on October 14th - We had a nice service, where we all gathered and then had the Graveside service at the cemetary, and then we gathered for a time at the Local American Legion Post, where we all spent time remembering my grampa, and I was able to see alot of good friends and family members, and see many people who knew him pay final respects. Then, I had my new HD TV go on the fritz, and I sen

Hello Team: Is there a way to download the last stable release of Apache 1.3.41 as a *.deb package without having to go get every flippin dependency in the world myself? I have tried to do this, but I'm constantly getting errors or problems with dependancies and unfortunately, there is NO way to use apt-get to FORCE Apache 1.341 to install with all the stuff it needs - For this install, I believe it would be easier to install Apache1 and then install the program I need. I am trying to install Freeside1.7.3 Using this weblink and it appears that the instructions HERE dont use apache2 so I can'

Marty: GOOGLE: Mark Sanford Mark Sanford is the Governor of the state of South Carolina, who "disappeared" for about a week a few weeks or so back, and did NOT tell anyone in his office, or any of his staff, and flew to Argentina to see his mistriss - He had apparently had an an affair with this woman for a while, and I guess was dealing with infidelity....... Long story short, he said he never flew there on taxpayer money, but it appears that he did - When he came back home, he was apologizing to his constituants, and the people of the State of South Carolina, and shortly after, people were c

Good Luck and congratulations on making it through your first 2 years - Enjoy yourself and take it slow and easy, because that is the way that you can be sure that you are doing what it is you want in life - I agree with everyone posting, that you should be able to set some money aside in case the roommate situation doesn't work out - My friend always says that you shouild always have a "backdoor" and he is right Take Care Hondaboy, and Good Luck!! Brian

Happy Birthday Jeff - Hope you had a great day!!! I wish you all the best in the future Brian

Peaches: I, too, am glad that you are safe - Looks like the fires are bad from looking at the pictures - Take care of yourself and be safe Brian
