Yes, even choosing the Cd through the start disk preference panel would not work, it would read the CD for a few seconds and then boot off the HD. I can boot off other HD's without a problem, it's only Cd's that won't work anymore.

Ever since I upgraded to 10.1.3, I can no longer boot from any valid CD. Whether it's OSX or OS9. Anyone else run into this problem?

Without any safe guards on my computer, my FTP throughput is respectable, usually about 350-400kbps. When I run a firewall however (tried both Netbarrier and Firewalk) my FTP speeds drop to around 35kbps. I keep ports 20-21 open. Does anyone have any hints as to why this would happen? Thanks!

Hey, I've seen people recommend proftpd here so I compiled it tonight, no problems. However, when I try to run it, I get the error: Core - Fatal: unable to determine IP address of `Core'. Core is my computer's host name as defined in hostconfig. Any FTP gurus have any ideas?

Are there any config files on OSX that will allow you to set specific Hz for different resolutions? Much like SwitchRez in OS9?

Hey, I've got programs like "FamilyTreeX" that can only be run as the SysAdmin through Pseudo, yet it has owner and public file permissions set to read/write/execute. Anyone know how you can get programs like these to be able to execute from anyone?

Hey thanks! worked like a charm.

I installed OSX and a fresh OS 9.1 on the same partition. When choosing a 9.1 system for Classic in OSX preferences, the OS 9.1 thats on the same partition as OSX is not available, yet an OS 9.1 on a different partition is available. Any ideas on a possible fix?

Ok, I have seen the error of my ways, so I'm a newbie.

Let me expand on my problem then, everytime I try and compile something I get the error: C Compiler cannot create executables... When I look up this error in my handy dandy Unix reference book, it says this error means gcc is missing. Any ideas?

Hey, thanks for the faq site, I'll check it out. But as for gcc, it's not anywhere on my drive. Is there a special way to install the developer CD or something? Everything appeared to install without error.

Hey guys, I guess I can't see the forest for the trees...I installed the Developer CD, yet gcc is still nowhere to be found. What am I doing wrong?

There is a GUI interface you can pick up called Brickwall to allow you to modify the firewall settings. You can get it from <http://www.versiontracker.com>

How did you get cc to compile? Mine keeps giving me the error "Complier cannot create executables".
