Are you using 10.3.3? It fixed a lot of whacky things that happened to networking in 10.3.2.

Yes, I was just commenting that the new location for the Startup settings is too off the beaten path. Frankly, it's buried now. Still functions the same, just located a little deep for my preference. The move into the Accounts pane makes sense from an administrator's standpoint in that you can...

The question was regarding Panther, which no longer has a Login Items area in the System Preferences (as near as I can tell). Instead, you have to go the Account pane in System Preferences, select the user in question, then click the Startup Items tab, THEN drag the the item you wish to...

Weezer, it's been a long time since I researched/wrote this article, but if memory serves, just because the Shared folder has the desired permissions doesn't mean that new files created in it will inherit those permissions. Such was the behavior in 10.2.3, and I havne't researched this in any...

I have the HP5000 series running on my LAN at home and dont have trouble printing. HP's drivers are available at their site http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/eng/software_drivers.htm. I'm curious what version of OS X you are actually using. Prior to 10.2 printing was a wholly different animal...

Pyroboy, that's an involved question for another topic. =) However, what you need is called Virtual Hosting and it requires you to edit your httpd.conf file. Look for the following in the httpd.conf file: ### Section 3: Virtual Hosts # # VirtualHost: If you want to maintain multiple...

Your last post sounds like you have a couple different PC's defined, one of which doesn't have a hard disk image associated with it for one reason or another. Can you provide screen shots of your VPC directory opened in List view with all subfolders opened inside? Might be helpful. A couple of...

I don't mean to state the obvious, but you'll probably need to modify your httpd.conf file to enable PHP. I don't recall it coming enabled by default (might be wrong there), and I suspect the new update probably replaces your httpd.conf file.

Presumeably you're using OS X. I assume you're using 10.2.3. Under normal circumstances, simply popping in a blank CD-R prompts the user to name the CD. Once named, the CD-R mounts as a blank volume. It can be renamed, and files can be dragged to/from it just as if it were a hard drive. When you...

Safari doesn't work well with some forums sites for me. Case in point is Mortality.net's d20 forums: http://mortality.net/board/board.php?FID=151 Can't click on the forum title to view the forum. Boo. And it seems to have trouble printing to my HP 5000N laser printer sometimes. That...

The MSN Groups screen shot you referenced doesn't seem to work, at least from here, so it's hard to get an idea of what you're looking at. Can you post the address of the web page with the song you're trying to download? As for your other problem, sounds like a browser glitch. What browser...

Your only real solution would be to get a printer server for your printer and slap it onto the network. That way all the machines can see if painlessly. Print servers come in a wide variety, and without knowing the flavor of your printer it's hard to recommend one. Hope this was helpful. =)

I use the Dazzle Hollywood DV Bridge to connect my VHS to my firewire port. The unit converts RCA video into firewire DV that iMovie can import with a snap. Once it's in iMovie, edit as you please and then export for iDVD. Burn to DVD, voila! =) Explore the options at: http://www.dazzle.com/

Excellent points. In my particular situation, a small ad agency with Mac/Windows clients, I abandoned the notion of sharing the Shared folder entirely in favor of simply sharing a folder on the machine's second hard drive in a similar manner. The HOWTO doesn't cover this process, but the...

Many users wish to be able to collaborate with their fellow users by sharing files hosted on a central workstation or server. With Mac OS X this isn't as easy as it may sound due to multi-user permission safeguards. This HOW-TO shows how to set up a Mac OS X 10.2.3 workstation to have it's...

You need to place your EMBED tag inside an OBJECT tag, and it doesn't look like either of you are really providing enough info for the browser. Both the EMBED and OBJECT tags need the same info, so it's duplicated. It's this way because some browsers see EMBED, while others see OBJECT. Try...

Doesn't look like the info window in 10.2.3. What OS version are you using?

Aha! Found it (how I don't know) in the Samba documentation. It's... create mask = 0774 This will provide owner and group read/write for the files created with the SMB daemon. Yay! Will revise my HOW-TO and post the latest draft.
