It's probably loginwindow that's crashing; is there anything useful in /var/log/system.log when this happens?

That's definitely not what it should be after a devtools install; when you installed the devtools stuff, did you include the DevSDK package (which is where a ton of header files come from)?

WallstreetG3, what does ls /usr/include say?

There's an interesting story of a rare, mysterious Mac over at Wired.

Are you running 10.1.x but still using the older devtools from 10.0? If so, you need to grab devtools for 10.1, as the 10.0 tools are incompatible with 10.1

Make sure the shell (with path) is listed in /etc/shells. ftpd won't allow logins if the user's shell isn't listed there.

I guess I don't feel so bad now...

Actually, when they say round, they do mean round (look for Rounding off dollars).

Of my four machines which are always up, two have SCSI drives (one I believe is approaching three years old), and the other two IDE (including the Mac). The Mac is also a Dual 500, 40G, and has been running no problems since I bought it late 2000. The other IDE machine is OpenBSD (in a...

I believe the -psn argument has something to do with copy/paste ability; why? The only executable which has psn in it is /System/Library/CoreServices/pbs (pasteboard server, which handles the copy/paste functions). Of course, there's absolutely no documentation I can find...

I believe you are looking for du: $ du -sk Desktop/ 74844 Desktop/ so my Desktop is currently around 74 megs (I sure need to clean that...). You can look at individual folders in a path as well, by omitting the s flag; the k tells it to show kilobytes, otherwise it will show you the...

Considering the message illegal user which sshd gives, the first thing to look at is if there are entries in /var/log/netinfo.log at the same time. Also, have you made any changes to /etc/sshd_config?

In some people's opinion (mine included) this is a bug, so I filed a bug report on this issue (radar 2809128) but was later told that the Finder is behaving as expected...so I take that to mean you don't want to do any copying in Finder of sensitive files.

stringByExpandingTildeInPath returns the result, it doesn't modify the original, so you want: NSString *myString = @"~/Desktop/"; NSString *expanded = [ myString stringByExpandingTildeInPath ]; NSLog(@"expanded = %@", expanded); You can also get the home with: char *home = getenv(...

If it's the documentation included with the devtools that doesn't mention NSSocketPort, go to Apple's Foundation docs as they recently updated them. There's also the PDF at that location.

If you don't use shared modules (via --enable-mods-shared or --enable-<modulename>=shared), it'll use static modules for the default ones. Which means it will compile and install. The configure line I used (after my changes listed previously): ./configure --with-mpm=prefork...

Well, I was wrong about the ppc part, that error comes from expat (the XML parser). This can be fixed by running (assuming you are in httpd-2.0.35) cp -f /usr/share/libtool/config.* srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/conftools/ That should take care of needing to specify ppc. As for the...

It seems the error (as well as the one requiring ppc) are coming from APR (under srclib/apr). It has a seperate configure (which the main one calls); not sure how to deal with this yet.

Everything restarts when you reboot the machine...if I understand your question correctly.

That's a configure option, ./configure ppc --with-mpm=prefork <other options>.
