I've set up webdav on my personal Linux server. For those not familiar with it, it enables you to have iDisk-like access to the machine where webdav is set up. It works like a charm on my G5 running Tiger at home-I just go "Connect to Server", put in the url for my server, type in username...

I've set up a Brother MFC-6800 on Windows XP (SP2) so it's shared. My other Windows box prints to it, no problem. My Mac OS X 10.3 boxes are having a weird problem, though. Whenever they print to the printer, only 1/4 or 1/3 of the page is printed. The rest is blank. I'm using the latest...

I just installed Tiger on my imac G4 and cannot get the WMP to open any video on the web sites that I used to get them to work on prior to installing Tiger. There are still those PC web sites that say "We do not support Macintosh at this time"where I have never been able to get the WMP to...
