    I am so jazzed about 10.1

    OK, so I did a clean reinstall of OS9.1 and X10.0.3 then updated each on seperate partitions. It took about an hour or so to finish this process on my new iBook Fire Wire (by the way, does my little iBook have a name like so many other macs, i.e. wallsteet) . I did a quick backup of all my...

    Follow on Apache, and now FTP

    OK, I apologize, I am a moron, it is now working. If anyone is having a problem starting apache as a user rather than root, maybe this will help. Once again I am sorry for taking up this space. As I kept revising this message I got it to work, lol :D OK, so when I am log in as root and...

    priveleges....

    I should have mentioned that. I was assuming you were just removing some shareware/freeware from your application folder. There really is no need to log into root if you are a novive user, except to delete items, and change the appearance of items that you do not have sufficient privilages...

    Apache, Airport and Linksys question....

    So I can forward the port 80 requests from the Base Station to my iBook static IP. This can be accomplished using the Base Station Air Port Admin Utility. Does anyone know what I need to have in each space. Private Port: ? ( I assume this is 80) Private IP: ? (incidently by default the...

    Apache, Airport and Linksys question....

    OK, so I am able to assign the iBook a static IP, but in order to communicate with the base station, the address has to be 10.0.1.X (where X is 2-27). Problem is, the Sislynk forwarding utility only allows you to forward to IP's that look like this, 192.168.1.X. So now what, it seems like...

    priveleges....

    Log in as root, assuming it is enabled. If it is not enabled you will need to do so. Off the top of my head, I can't remeber how to do so, I think it is in the NetInfo Utility, located in your utilities file. If root is enable, you can drag and drop the folder into the trash, if you logged...

    Apache, Airport and Linksys question....

    I manually assign my iBook the IP address X.X.X.102, and set the netmask to 255.255.255.0, and set the gateway to the basestation's IP address. When I save, and reload this page, this page will not reload can't be found. If I change the gateway to the routers internal IP, the same thing...

    Apache, Airport and Linksys question....

    I have tried to assign my iBook a static IP, X.X.X.102, but when I do so I lose my internet connection. The only time I am able to connect to the rest of the world is if I use DHCP from the basestation. I will give it another shot, but if memory serves me, it has never worked. Assuming I...

    Apache, Airport and Linksys question....

    Is it possible to host a website with an iBook using an Airport. The basestation is assigned an IP of 192.168.1.101, and is behind a Linksys DSL Router at 192.168.1.1. I have disabled the DHCP service on the router because in order to enable request forwarding. This is not an issue because I...
