    How do I manage user & groups?

    Well I don't know, it feels like regedit on M$, but got that nix touch in it....

    Problem with mout_nfs in Finder.

    Well I got MacFUSE sometime ago, just haven't got to use it... Do you know the performance of ssh_fs? I used to have samba set-up, but its performance isn't very good - I "stream" movies from my network share, and that my network has no Windows box so it isn't exactly a logically correct thing...

    FileVault Poll

    AFAIK most nix system lets you boot into Single user mode with have root access to everything and from there you can reset password of any users. But that's a system admin thing - the files and system structures are not necessarily encrypted. IMHO encrypting data is a different beast, it is not...

    How do I manage user & groups?

    Ok so I need to create a new group and add an existing user (myself) to this group. This is how I usually do it on a nix box: groupadd -g 8080 mygroup usermod -G mygroup myuser But I can't find these commands on OS X... I tried looking at System Preference but can't find anything like...

    Problem with mout_nfs in Finder.

    I was trying to connect to a home file server in Finder via NFS, but got permission denied. So I used the Terminal: sudo mount_nfs -P homeServer:/share /mnt And that worked. However I'd like to do this in the Finder. This is a laptop and I don't always have access to my home server...

    FileVault Poll

    Hmmm I always logged in on my MacBook and I have been wondering, when I close the lid and it goes to asleep, the files are still decrypted or? I have it to password prompt on wake up, but it can't be encrypting and decrypting every time I close and open the lid, right? IMHO using FileVault is...

    FileVault Poll

    Used it from the first day on my laptop and almost a year, haven't had any problems. Had more than 10 forced shutdown/reboot. The only thing that might have been caused by FileVault is that my Application and Support directory got corrupted. I was not able to read it, delete it, or write to...

    BTW, I noticed that you have a link to Kubuntu, are you triple-booting Linux Windows and Mac while developing this? ;)

    My project is looking for Beta testers

    It seemed to have optimised a bit this time!!! Some annoyance that I have found: Dock, the magnification just isn't right... you are not doing it different just to be different, right? Resolution, I know this can be very tricky... but it is a weird to have something beyond the Dock and...

    My project is looking for Beta testers

    I don't know if it is just me... But at first I thought this is some kind of web OS, then to realise that he is just trying create a personal home page, NOW I still think this has potential to be developed as a great web OS!!

    Mac, DRM, and HD-DVD Blu-ray?

    Steve Jobs has made it pretty clear in his open letter that Apple is against DRM and has worked to take some DRM out of iTMS. However, Mac being 'the multimedia platform', it is gotta to support HD-DVD & Blu-Ray some time in the future right? I have been wondering, how is Apple going to...

    Non Apple Monitor

    I got the Dell 24" and I think it is the exact model you are looking at. It indeed has DVI-in however I have only used it with my MacBook and I don't know much about Mac on the desktop. If your Mac has DVI out then it should work.

    No Leopard until October

    They are just implying the X as in UniX and LinuX but just pronouncing as Ten to avoid UNIX license thing.

    My project is looking for Beta testers

    It is said that the code is open and he will release it on the web page... And yea it is damn confusing!!! I think he is just having 'fun' imitating Apple than anything else. (No offence.)

    My project is looking for Beta testers

    Ahh so it is just your personal home page? Kinda weird to have Application like 'features' like Safari in a personal home page... and this is exactly the thing that made me thought you are developing some kind of web OS. On a peak of the source code... you seem to have comments about how...
