    SFTP Permissions driving me nuts!

    OK, so I have to use SFTP to post my Web projects at work. The login I have to the server is part of a group, so that should set the correct permissions by default when I upload something... but so far all the SFTPer's I've used (Transmit, Fugu, CyberDuck) have somehow overridden this on any...

    Two Panther Blessings

    Panther has been treating me well, of late: :D 1. Panther comes bundled with PHP Version 4.3.2, easily activated by 'uncommenting', and nicely configured out-of-the-box. :D 2. You can open and edit the master Hosts file to block IPs or domains, and it works right then and there...very...

    Kernel Panics in Panther - my saga

    I have had a new PB G4 since November with no probs, until the last week, when I've had 15-20 kernel panics (aka annoying freezes with cryptic messages). I did all the standard troubleshooting stuff: maintentance, fsck, cron, DS-Store cleanup, repairing permissions, repairing disks...

    Problems with BBEdit and Fireworks

    I've fully transitioned to OSX now, and I've found there are a few annoying problems with my BBEdit (7.0) and Fireworks MX (6.01) programs that some of you might know more about. 1. Fireworks MX: I cannot copy a live text block from Fireworks into another program...so if I had something in...

    Can VPC do Direct X 8.1?

    I autocross ( a kind of auto racing I'm obsessed with ) and as far as I've seen there is only one existing racing game that has autocrossing built in, called "Live for Speed". Its an online type of racing sim game that lets you race other people, and its minimum hardware requirements are...

    New Job = Windows OHNO!

    Well, Im moving into a new position at work soon, and its a good one, but it will require a lot of database work, and working with a group that uses MS Access... I will still have creative responsibilities, and I dont want to go Windows for that reason, among others, so are there any Mac...

    Looking for a recommendation

    Im in 3 different clubs that always have events and meetings each month on different days or sometimes the same day. I recently made the bonehead move of going to the wrong event on the wrong day, and missed the real event. I want to have an ongoing reminder list that I can put the upcoming...

    G3 owners....need a little boost?

    OK, I know this subject has been covered before, but Im posting my story for the benefit of recent 9-to-X switchers. I have a Firewire PB G3 500, and I was nearly ready to switch back to 9.2 today, when I decided to look into tweaking a little more speed out of Jaguar. Unsanity's...

    Help with PHP server on Jaguar

    OK, for starters, I have used the machowto installer and successfully have the phpinfo file working fine. I'm doing a test, which basically is an html file with a form that asks for a filename and filedata then when you submit it, it "gets" to a php file that saves the data in a text file...

    Safari + PHPMyAdmin = :(

    I cant share my particular database with anyone, but I found out today that my PHPMyAdmin interface (to MySQL DB) loads a pretty blank screen when I want to 'Browse' one of my buckets. It's fine in IE/NS7, anyone else know what I'm talking about?

    I switched back to 9 for now.

    I had a work weekend at home, that required me to switch back to 9 so I could get the most out of my apps. Well, that was 3 weeks ago, and I have enjoyed the familarity and speed of OS9. What can I say? It just feels quicker, and leaner...not to mention my apps (Thousands of $$ worth) are all...

    Where is a good start for me?

    I've been coding with javascript, actionscript(flash), php, and a little applescript for a long time now, but I would love to make some simple standalone stuff - like for text-transformations, or scripted terminal actions (if that can be done) I'm initially attracted to the idea of...

    shuttin down...waiting, waiting...

    Im noticing that some times my mac takes a longer time to shut down (longer than it does to start up by far). Does this have something to do with X11? Is there some huge log file somewhere that is causing this?

    What the Heck?

    I've been struggling with getting X11 and all the wonderful apps that are out there going, but so far, NOTHING is happening, and I'm installing lots of stuff that doesnt seem to work. Is there not a single FAQ or WALK-THRU to get started "building" on MacOS X? I have so many questions!! Its...
