I installed SuSE Linux 9.1 Professional on an old computer recently. I installed MySQL server
(version 4.0.18), Webmin (version 1.250) and Usermin (version 1.180). If I try to connect to the
MySQL server with the username root and no password, I get an invalid login error from Webmin,
Usermin and mysql-cc. What is the default password, and how can I change it? I am very excited to be
learning Linux (after a long journey through Windows-land), but get frustrated on loopholes like
these. Also, an a different note, why would the system stop loading after a certain point (to...

Just installed Linux Ubuntu on a partition with Wireless access to the Internet and have a question
about the need for an Ani-virus software. Is it suggested to have it installed? and which one is
recommended by the Trap17 users? Ubuntu 8.04 installed via Wubi, if that matters. Both the LAN
hard-wire connection and the Wireless Adapter work, if that matters......

Hi, I just installed the ftp server proftpd in my linux machine. I executed it and i can login it
with my user. It redirects me to my /home/myuser. Until here everything ok. My idea was configuring
a ftp server where a predifined user could access only a folder's range with read only
permisions and also a folder with write permisions but not read permisions. I am not sure about the
steps to follow to do this. So i thought that maybe someone in trap is using proftpd and could help
me. So the steps will be: - Create a user with the command useradd/passwd - Modify the ...

i found this on zdnet QUOTE According to the Symantec Security Response Web site, the worm is
capable of infecting multiple operating system platforms and is spreading. The advisory said: "A
new worm is being distributed within malicious OpenOffice documents. The worm can infect Windows,

The BBC are developing a piece of software called iPlayer, that will allow people who hold a TV
Licence to watch brodcasts up to 7 days after their original transmission by downloading them
through the BBC's software. This is a great idea, and shows the BBC are competing with the likes
of Channel 4's On Demand service. It'll be free, and they've worked hard with the owners
of the programmes to make sure they can bring as much as possible to the service. However, there is
a major problem: iPlayer will require Microsoft Windows and Internet Explorer. The BB...

started to mess up the computer and everytime i try to run the installation wizard it restarts the
computer and tells me there was a critical error.... so does anybody have any links or...

I am installing Apache 2 on Ubuntu Linux 6.06 (downloaded appropriate binary), and have followed the
instructions from several places, including apach.org... I have got to the point where it says to
enter make , just after the ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 , where I also added
--enable-mods-shared=most , for the common options. That all went fine, took a little while, then
when it's done I am supposed to enter make , I presume to gather up all the newly created
files. This command just does not exist. returned bash error and it is not in the manual....

I have something that might be a bit of an idea, thought I'd share it so I know if it's a
good idea or a bad one. I get the feeling (upon having browsed a few forums around here) that a lot
of Trap17 members are also users of linux. Not necessarily passionate, anti-every-non-unix-OS users,
or potential kernel hackers - just balanced and normal, every-day linux users. So I was wondering if
we could have a separarate sub group called the Trap17 LUG, perhaps a new board or a plain mailing
list - to discuss Linux and related issues. Obviously, every member of Trap17 ...

I got a new AMD Turion 64 laptop for Christmas. I installed Ubuntu Linux (64-bit version) and
started browsing with Firefox. When I got to a flash enabled site, I downloaded the plugin and as I
tried to install it, a dialog box popped up stating that flash does not support 64-bit operating
systems or something like that. Has anyone else had that problem? Is Macromedia going to make a
64-bit version?...
