    On the Win2K machines go to Start...Settings...Control Panel...User Manager Add the user name and password for the 98 machine, and give appropriate access. That should allow the 98 system to access the shares on the 2K computers. Todd :> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Todd Hutchins...

    Adding RedHat to NT domain

    Another idea for root telnet is to login as a user then su and give the root password. that should give you roo access for most things. If it doesn't, use SSH (putty for Windows). It is more secure and acts just like a telnet session. I hope this helps. Todd :>...

    Another one with 7.3 install problems

    We have the old EZ CD Creator (pre-Roxio) and that is what I used to create my images. File...Create CD from CD image... find the file. I didn't have any problems with it.

    No Sound - Linux Newbie

    Eth1/LinuxConf problem

    You also might want to stay away from linuxconf. It has a tendancy to mess things up. Even Red Hat advises against using it, which is why it isn't installed by default anymore. Use the Red Hat network confuguration utility /usr/sbin/redhat-config-network It's a GUI interface and works protty...

    Really big failure on boot

    Your message: fsck.ext3/dev/hdb1: The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an...
