Sounds like the wired and wireless networks do not share the same subnet. Check the documention of the SMC if it is possible to define a common subnet for both.

I would not go wireless for this purpose. You get very poor transmission rates. Airport Extreme doesn't really help very much unless you are close to the base station because transmission rates degrade significantly with distance. In my project studio, I once tried to solve everything with a...

In fact, M$ Hotmail checks if mail is coming from a legitime mail hub, as will many mail services. You should have got the address of an appropriate SMTP server of your provider, so you should configure this as "smarthost" in sendmail (i.e. you should pass all outgoing mail to this SMTP server).

Yes, confirmed. However, I'm pretty sure that a fix will come soon, and until then I can easily live with hitting Return instead of clicking the button.

At the Login/Password prompts, the systems did not yet handshake the terminal type, so the remote terminal is unknown. Instead of the backspace key, use the # which will have the same effect. I.e. "abc#de" will result in "abde".

This is caused by the tty settings of the remote system. You can adjust this with the stty command. In your case: stty erase Now after "erase" type a space and then hit the backspace key, then hit return. This way, you specify that the backspace key will be associated with the "erase" tty...

The .cvspass file in your home dir should in fact be owned by you, not by root. Maybe you previously ran cvs with root permissions by accident? However, your chown approach was almost correct, only that you should sudo instead of su, where sudo will ask you for the admin password (which is...

Yes, that's correct. The client can oly suggest to the server about what it wants, but the server always has the freedom to prohibit anything it doesn't like. In fact, to make use of X11 forwarding, the sshd server must allow that. On the client side, setting ForwardX11=yes only means that...

CDs which you burn on a PC usually are in ISO format with the Joliet extension to support long file names. Mac OS X can perfectly read these CDs, so I suspect the problem elsewhere.

Sorry, you're right, /bin/bash is correct. In NetInfo Manager in the local@127.0.0.1 domain, I have set the "shell" property to "/bin/bash" for my user account and this does the trick. It causes the SHELL environment variable to be set to /bin/bash as well. Note that you *must* log off and...

ProjectBuilder here, too. On X11 I use the nedit editor as well.

You need to set the default shell for your user account to /usr/bin/bash. You do this with NetInfo or the niutil command line tool.

No no, you don't have to fiddle the DISPLAY variable at all if you use ssh -X. Maybe X11 forwarding is disabled on the *server*, please check that before you do anything else: ssh -v -X user@macname.local This should give you some info, also about if the server accepts X11 forwarding or...

I simply let rdesktop do it ;) http://www.rdesktop.org http://fink.sourceforge.net/pdb/package.php/rdesktop

So how did QuickDNS 3 solve this issue? There is a tool named nsupdate which comes with bind, you can use this to dynamically your ns config. I can imagine a shell script which periodically watches certain network resources, removing them from the ns config as soon as they become unavailable...

Simpy associate multiple IP addresses with the same name. This will cause bind to pick the addresses in a "round-robin" manner.

If you have a FILE* fp instead of an int fd you can simply do the following: int fd = fileno(fp);

You need to implement file locking. In case the files reside in the local file system, use flock(2). However, if you want the locking to work with NFS-mounted file systems as well you have to use fcntl(2). The following sample provides file locking and unlocking. On locking it also deals with...

-type is not a valid nslookup command line option. Instead, use -query: nslookup -query=MX yourdomain.com

You seem to forget that even writing a sentence to the screen requires a display driver. Analogously, obtaining keyboard input requires a keyboard driver. As far as I know there is nothing built into a Mac comparable to PC BIOS functions to read from keyboard or display a character on the...
