Greetings,
I am using RH 6.1. I went through an interactive startup to see what was
loading. I'm wondering if the following are necessary to load:
linuxconf, local, sendmail and xfs. If one or all of them is not
necessary, I do not know how to stop them from loading.
A few other questions I have:
Gnome starts automatically. I would like to stop that from happening and
be able to use my programs (at this point that would primarily mean to
dial my ppp connection and start netscape).
I installed Star Office 5.1 from the CD and I know where it is located,
but I don't know how to start it.
I would also like to be able to monitor my system. I know that is a
little generic, but I would like to tell what's happening with my ppp
connection, how much memory is being used and what services are loaded
and what they are doing.
The other thing I would like to do is tell what programs have been
loaded on the machine. I don't even know where to begin. In case someone
has loaded something that I do not want running, or modified something.
Currently I'm using Netscape 4.61 and using Messenger for mail. I have
more than one e-mail account through my ISP. It looks like it does not
allow me to have multiple e-mail addresses. If it does, I do not know
where to go. I checked preferences and it looks to me like I have to add
another mail server and it won't let me do that unless it is IMAP.
Last question may be a little harder. When I dial my ISP using the RH
PPP Dialer, it dials my connection, handshakes, hangs up, dials again,
handshakes and then stays connected. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Steve
