am sure something is off by default when this is compiled, but I have not
sorted it out. Do the default ebuilds allow this? Or do I need to define

Re: OT What If?

2003-02-03 Thread Joel Hammer
Let's not forget that Gutenberg spent a lot of his time in court trying
to enforce his monopoly on movable printing technology. I believe he was
unsuccessful, and he never made any big money off his invention. They
don't emphasize that in the standard history books. If Gutenberg
had enforced his monopoly, he might have risen to become a great
philanthropist, like Mr. Gates.

At least we can say that MS is not going soft (no pun intended). And,
although Mr. Gates has been quite harsh on his competitors, he hasn't
been caught robbing his stockholders, yet, unlike many other industry
titans in the last several years.

Re: Automatic samba startup, SuSE 8.1

Is there some GUI way to get Samba to start automatically under

have a problem making the appropriate links, but it would be nice
if there's something else that a normal customer can use.


Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. You can set the runlevel graphically by using 
Yast:

Yast Control Center - System - Runlevel Editor - Runlevel Properties

Just select the script file(s), in this case smb  nmb, and click the 
boxes for the runlevels in which you want them to start - usually 3 and 5.

HTH,

Actually, this sort of points out some fundamental differences between 
print and electronic publishers.  Print publishers have spent the last 
twenty years working to invalidate Fair Use.  Electronic ones (software, 
music, film) wrote guarantees of our rights to it in their DMCA--and now 
are working to eliminate the means to actually USE those rights.
