    CVS for X

    I thought it might be--I looked and found CVS manpages, but I couldn't find CVS itself. I also found the manpage for Perldoc, and it isn't there either. Which is dead strange, because I don't think there was anything wrong with the install... (didn't make any objections, anyway). Oh well...

    CVS for X

    I haven't tried it myself, but it's part of the Darwin distrib--the source is available at http://www.opensource.apple.com/projects/darwin/1.2/source/other/cvs-1.10-18.tar.gz or you can download the installer for the whole works (I'd go with the source code...)

    multiple domain names on one os x machine?

    I haven't got my OS X box in front of me, so I can't tell you where it is exactly, but there's pretty decent HTML documentation included with Apache--tells you where to put all of these things. You should be able to find it by poking around in the Apache folders (or try Sherlock).

    'fstab' tip

    You're joking, aren't you? Windows (Blow) Me is $109... for upgrade pricing. $209 from scratch. You could argue that everybody is upgrading, or at least a high enough percentage that the average price is better than $130, but then you could also argue that ME is a piece of crap not worthy of...

    A Centered Menu Bar

    Since the USA, its language, its writing, and its majority population originated in Europe, "Eurocentric" is by no means a poor description of products made based on American assumptions about language and writing. This said, it would be really stupid to center many things: Fitt's law...

    Stopping Spam and Trojan Horses with BSD

    Remember always to double-check your corrections: bretglass.com seems to be a mirror of brettglass.com (look a the links at the top.)

    Terminal/Console no longer work

    I think you're the victim of a meaningless coincidence. Log in normally, open up Terminal and change the default shell (in preferences) to csh or sh--there's some evidence that tcsh gets corrupted very easily (search the forums for "tcsh" for more on that). If that works, then you can probably...

    Unable to create a new user

    Actually, it looks rather to me as if he *had* been using that program... and it should work. I've used it to create a couple of dummy users, and they're entirely functional. I don't know what to tell you, except try looking at the Apple support site--or try trashing that program and...

    FOR ALL PEOPLE WHO CAN'T RUN CLASSIC

    There's an <a href="http://kbase.info.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/kbase.woa/wo/6.25.6.5.0.0.3">article about this</a> in the Knowledge Base at Apple--if the link doesn't work, go to http://kbase.info.apple.com/ and search for "classic and UFS". Basically, it can be done without the drastic...

    Classic quits on launch (Powerbook G3)

    You're running 9.0.4, aren't you? I had the exact problem you mention, deinstalled 9.0.4 (technically speaking, reinstalled 9.0, but that sounds harder) and was fine.

    Missing? Or replaced...

    I was looking for a couple of programs, some more essential than others, that I hope somebody out there has already found... <dl><dt>talkd</dt> <dd>talk just keeps saying "Looking for invitation on caller's machine" and I can't find a way around it.</dd> <dt>perldoc</dt> <dd>this is a pain...

    Editing plain old text files

    If you're going to attack it with Terminal.app, why not use emacs? It's at least somewhat closer to intuitive than vi.... The simple way of solving your CR-LF/newline problems is to use a perl commandline (or awk, I suppose, but I don't know awk). To make mac files legible in Terminal I...
