Thanks Serge. I think my problem lies in finding or recognising the right kind of command line. I actually tried notebook() in a worksheet on www.sagenb.org and that did indeed ask for an admin password as you suggest. But I can't find any way to run the same command in my VMWare envioronment.
I've asked about how to find this command line in another thread so let's see if that enquiry proves fruitful. Many thanks Kevin On May 16, 7:45 pm, "Serge A.
