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've looked elsewhere and can't seem to find any help on this. First off I tried calling
Microsoft, which in turn told me to call Compaq because my computer came with XP installed. Great,
but my computer is 2 years old and it's out of warranty, and HP won't do anything unless
they can charge me $45 for a one time call for support, or pay $99 for a 1 year extended
warranty on my computer, and there is no way I'm paying money for a problem that isn't
major. Well anyway, as most of you who use Windows know, you need to go through Security o...

hi, before i get started with this ever growing list to this new OS, let me explain the terms of
these programs not working. Windows Vista is a new High end operating system pulling high system
resorces from your computer. The reason some of these programs may fail or plain not work at all
may not always be the OS's fault. The bigest problem with vista is the ram and proccesor usage.
And as an added note, if you want to know why im making so many posts about vista, i am simply
expressing the problems of the operating system to future users. The Beta right now is...

It looks like my PC has something against HTML editors. I use Coffeecup HTML Editor 2007 and I also
have Dreamweaver CS. In both cases, when I am editing web pages, whenever I switch from one task to
another, eg. after editing do a save, or do a preview or whatever, both programs (Coffeecup even to
a bigger extend) stop responding for a good while, quite often 45 secs.- 1 min minimum. You can
imagine how much time that wastes during editing, not to mention the frustration it causes. My PC
has a P4 dual core 2.8 Ghz, 1 Gb RAM, 250 Gb HDD, Win Xp SP2, the HDD is regularl...

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...

Hey everyone. I've gone without the Sims 2 for a while now and I just went out and spent
$50 for another copy of it. Well I uninstalled my other copy since I cracked the first disk of
it and I couldn't get a no-cd patch to work. Then I installed my new copy and when I put the
first disk in, it starts up but after that nothing happens and the Sims 2 white screen that pops up
disapears. And when I open up Task Manager, Sims2.exe just drops off the list, and when I press the
Sims 2 icon on my desktop, the white screen comes up again and after that the infamous,...

Suse 10.1 is finally out after a long period of beta testing. For those who don't know what Suse
is, Suse is a linux operating system. 10.1 is supposed to fix all the problems of suse 10 and also

RedHat linux, which is the leader in the linux world. Suse 10.1 has many new ...

Four days ago I formatted my computer and have been installing all of my applications. I went to the
Macromedia site and installed flash player, and the movie is shown saying that it has installed
succesfully. However, if I go to a website that hosts flash player 8 content, It usually does not
display correctly and it tells me to go download the new player. No matter how many times I
re-install the player through the Macromedia website it does not "take". Any Ideas? Is there
anywhere I can get Flash Player 8 from as a .exe I can run and install? Thanks in advance....
