    slow ftp server

    Is it just the initial connection which is slow, or the transfer of files? If it's the initial connection, I'd first say your server is experiencing an inability to resolve the client's IP address back to a host name. In other words, client 1.2.3.4 connects to the server, which tries to...

    sbdrop kernel panic

    Well, a quick search on the kernel shows that sbdrop() is Drop data from (the front of) a sockbuf, so it's in networking code when you hit the panic. I'd say you've either stumbled onto a bug or you have hardware that's flaking out on you.

    I Need Help!

    If, by regular C++ app, you mean something which uses cin, cout, and the like, create a new project, and select C++ Tool as the type. When you run it from PB, the output should show up in the Run pane (which should open automatically when you select Build and Run). After you build, the...

    Setting terminal timeout for remote conenctions.

    You can definitely use pico (or vi, or emacs) to edit it; testuser just likes the perl method because it avoids the "use the editor of your choice, add this line, then save it" stuff... Nope, the ssh and sshd config files don't care about order, and don't have any grouping like Apache.

    How to add users remotely?

    If they have shell access, they would need to see more than their home, otherwise things like ls, man, etc, wouldn't work...at that point, why have shell access?

    Changing colors...

    Yes, there was, but it stopped working with 10.1. defaults write com.apple.dock showforeground 1 This caused the arrow for the active app to become blue. Of course, with 10.1, I found looking in the left of the menubar is faster than search the dock anyway...

    xroach

    Oops, sorry about that; I've gotten to the point where I don't even think about malloc.h errors, and my fingers just automatically remove that include line... (Later) If all you ran was the cc command, than using ./xroach or ./xroach -squish should run it; be sure to have...

    xroach

    It's really easy to compile, cc -o xroach xroach.c -L/usr/X11R6/lib -I/usr/X11R6/include -lX11 The problems are that you need to run XDarwin in take over the screen mode, not rootless, and those roaches move way fast...

    MacOSX.com free perl script assoc.

    To set it up for inetd, first put the script someplace publically-readable (but not writable) like /usr/local/bin or something. Then we need to setup the reverse service. On other *nix, you would add a line to /etc/services, but this is Darwin/OS X, which uses NetInfo, so instead we must run...

    MacOSX.com free perl script assoc.

    Easiest way is to modify your script to take the string from stdin and send the reversed text to stdout. This way you can have it run from inetd without having to worry about networking code.

    how to quote?

    Do you mean like the above quote? If so, it's really, really, really easy: click the quote button on a specific reply to have it all setup for you, including the italicized Originally posted... Not sure about escaping; but it does appear smart enough to recognize an unmatched tag: [CODE]

    Four "nfsiod" processes running

    Simply for performance reasons; four is specified by the NFS startup item, /System/Library/StartupItems/NFS/NFS, which you can change if you don't need four. Note that an upgrade may very likely overwrite any changes to this file.

    There's Code Warrior (for which you pay), as well as Apple's MPW (which is free).

    Setting up JUnit on OSX?

    You don't yet have a class path set then; you should simply be able to run setenv CLASSPATH ~username/junit3.7/junit.jar to set it.

    Setting up JUnit on OSX?

    I've not tried JUnit myself, but judging from your attempt to set the environment (which appears very DOS-influenced), this may help (assuming you're using the default shell tcsh): setenv CLASSPATH ${CLASSPATH}:~username/junit3.7/junit.jar and see if that works.

    SSH login

    This is actually pretty common for security reasons; the app usually calls setuid() (man page is available). But yes, only root-owned processes can do it, otherwise that would pretty much kill the concept of security.
