    help! -jaguar takes for ever to log in

    A minute or more for a reboot??? Sounds about right for 10.2.2. Might be doing a quick fsck on startup. I noticed that 10.2.2 and all Jaguar distros I have worked with seem to take much longer than 10.1 to boot up. Especially on a reboot. You will probably find this to be a normal...

    Help - Why won't Mail send mail in 10.2.2?

    What kind of mail server are you connecting to? For instance: Behind my company's firewall, I have to enter the IP address for the mail server. But outside of the company's firewall, I have to enter the name of the mail server. Very odd, but my company uses W2000 for all of their servers...

    Mount ext2 FS in MacOS X

    So after much bickering about microkernels ... I guess the point is that OSX does NOT recognize the ext2 filesystem. There is a project going on on sourceforge, but like most of the projects there, there is no documentation about what is going on. I guess I'll have to try to contact someone...

    What is periodic.conf?

    Can you add scripts here so that OSX will run them on a daily, weekly, monthly basis? Will this cause any problems or is it better to add your scripts seperately to cron? Thanks. SA :)

    Emergency... Network help please ...

    Thanks Everyone. I feel really stupid for leaving my Mac that vulnerable. I put up the firewall, but I notice that these "script kiddies" are still probing port 80 on my machine as well as "code red". Is this going to be continuing forever, or do I need to shutdown port 80 and serv off...

    What is periodic.conf?

    What is periodic.conf used for. I see it referenced in /etc/crontab. I did man periodic and got informations saying it held commands for periodic updating of the system. But when I looked at the file it was blank. Is this like a system utility where commands are places that will be run on a...

    Emergency... Network help please ...

    I did a virus scan with Norton and nothing came up. Would it not find code red? And how do I get rid of code red? I use this machine as backup. There should not be any info of importance in it. (my boring life) Would it be wise to go ahead and wipe this machine and re-install then? This way I...

    Classic won't start

    First, never ever log in as root. Just a security tip for you. Log in as an administrative user. This may not be a permissions thing. (by the way, all of those pref files were probably replaced by the OS when you rebooted, I think) It may be that OSX is now set up so that "Root" can't load...

    Emergency... Network help please ...

    I turned off the firewall on my mac to update some data with quicken since quicken was using a port that I did not know that was being blocked by my firewall. (By the way does anyone know what port quicken uses for online banking?) Stupid me I forgot to turn the firewall app back on. I noticed a...

    C++ for Dummies....?

    Is this C++ or ObjC? Is there a diff? Even still, from what I've seen about Project Builder, the ide shouldd be different than what is in the book. The code examples can still be written into a text file and compiled quickly at the terminal with gcc. The gui stuff may need some...

    Applescript and CGI help please ...

    That is what I am saying. How powerful is AppleScript now with all of the other scripting languages available? My test.cgi script is an applescript I saved with the .cgi extension per Apple's website info. Apache still does not want to execute it. Do I have to do something to Apache outside...

    Changing default FTP port in 10.2

    Can't you just set this in the Firewall set-up in "System Preferences"? I know you can add other ports here. Can you edit default ports here also? Good Luck. SA :)

    C++ for Dummies....?

    You have to use a text editor like vi, emacs, or bbedit and cc to compile. I do not think you can use textedit since it saves as rtf instead of an ansi text file. But you really should not waste your money. Goto: www.google.com And search for : "C++" +tutorial And look at all of...

    Classic won't start

    Do you have a classic partition? Do you have the most up to date OS 9 on this partition? Only a specific brand of OS 9 will now run on 10.2 classic. One last question. Why use classic at all? Just curious. SA :)

    Airport et ip adress

    The reason for this is that you have the IP address of the Airport which is the IP address assigned to you by your ISP. Airport allows you to share this IP address between two computers. The easiest solution is to goto someplace like: www.ods.org or www.dydns.com (I use ods.org, but...

    Applescript and CGI help please ...

    I am trying to learn applescript. The more I delve into it the more I start to believe it is almost a dead language. Very little information on it. I've yet to find a proper explanation on how to read a "Dictionary". And now, it seems that Apache does not want to work with...
