I'm moving this post to a better forum, for organization. Could you please provide a bit more information? An URL for the site would be great.

Sorry, I accidentaly deleted my post (wanted to edit it but clicked the "delete" button - I did find it strange that it asked me if I did want to edit my post.... ). It basically said something like this

Humm... I didn't know about that, never saw it refered to as 2002

Humm... that looks like a database error, Thomas. Have you checked the config.php file to make sure you've set it up with the correct database information?

Sorry, Dennis, I don't know such a script But perhaps someone else knows how to do it and gives you a hand.

LOL I would, Robert. Believe me. I don't get irritated at this kind of stuff for denigrating Mozilla's image or Free software's image, or whatever. I get irritated because I see a lot of people in the media talking about stuff they don't know and then they say stupid things. Believe me, if the problem was with Mozilla and they said "Mozilla also vulnerable to Microsoft flaw", it would irritate me just as much

Well, it's not a version compatibility problem, since the Mac version is older than the Windows version - meaning the Windows version *should* be able to read the Mac document. On the other hand, we all know that MS has always been great at providing backwards compatibility for their own products... Perhaps the problem is simply the fact that one document was created in a Mac and Word dor Windows is not capable of reading it. I think your best is to ask MS about it or try to find the information on their website. P.S. - Word 2002 for Windows?? Did that exist at all?? I've never used MS Office much but I think the Windows versions are 2000, XP and 2003, right?...

Dennis, in order to do what you're describing, you'd need a shell or something like that - I can't think of anything else. TCH does not offer shell access, so I guess you'll have to stick with the cron job option.

Thomas, I downloaded the package, unzipped it and it installed just fine. I have no clue as to what could cause that error but perhaps some files are missing? Try unzipping and installing the package again.

Audacity is a mighty good tool, I use the Linux version and it's great. Also, Tracy, consider a non-proprietary format, like Vorbis. Everything is free, the players (Winamp plays OGG), the encoders, the codec itself... and it's higher quality than WMA and MP3 Audacity supports Vorbis (.ogg extension), so give it a try

No problem! And I also thank you, as I said it's always good to learn something new /me types "apache survival guide" on Amazon.com's search box...

From http://slashdot.org/articles/04/07/12/2343210.shtml?tid=126&tid=128&tid=172&tid=185&tid=190&tid=201 Time for another patch, amigos. Once again, courtesy of our favorite software maker, Microsoft You know, I must admit it, this is one area where MS has always been unbeatable and Free software has never been able to reach them: the huge of patches they issue for their products in so little time! But there is one thing that irritates me: the ignorance of the news editors/publishers/whatever. They write news titles like "Microsoft products also vulnerable to Mozilla flaw", making it sound as if the problem is Mozilla's fault when it's Windows' fault Edit: Oops.. did I say "time for another patch"? Naaa, forget it, there's no patch available for this one, yet

No, I didn't create the files while using root, I created all my files with my regular user and chgrped/chmoded them as needed.

Well, I got it to work, too. Strangely, I moved the .htpasswd file out of my home directory, into "/var/www/html/protected", the same directory as the .htaccess file, and it worked. I also tried moving the .htpasswd into "/var/www/htpasses" and it also worked. I'm not sure why Apache wouldn't read the password file from my home folder... perhaps it has something to do with something I saw in the httpd.conf file, a directive configuring Apache to not allow home folders to be used for home pages, or something like that... Anyway, it's working Thanks for the challenge, HC. It's always good to learn something new

Well, my log files say that it's a permissions problem... >Permission denied: Could not open password file: /home/borfast/htpass/.htpasswd but I don't get it... I've gone as far as making both .htaccess and .htpasswd and it still doesn't open the darn thing!!

By the way, this is what my .htaccess file looks right now: >AuthUserFile /home/borfast/htpass/.htpasswd AuthGroupFile /dev/null AuthName "Just Something" AuthType Basic <Limit GET POST> require valid-user </Limit>

Well, a quick search on Google came up with this little tutorial: http://www.colostate.edu/~ric/htpass.html As you can see, it adds very little to what we already have. I took a peek at httpd.conf (Apache's configuration file - if you want to look at it, it should be in somewhere inside "/etc/httpd/conf/" or maybe just "/etc/" ) and I found that the "AllowOverride" directive was set to "None". I changed it temporarily to "All" and when I tried to access the protected directory again, it asked me for a username and password! But when I tried the user/pass combination I had just created, my went It doesn't work. It keeps asking for the username and password, like you described in your first post But I'm not giving up just yet. Apache is not more stubborn than me

HC, I tried setting up a password protected directory on my local machine but I was not successful, either. I opened a .htaccess file from a password protected directory I have in my personal account on TCH. The file contents are 99% equal to what I had created, except for the path to the password file. I don't know why it doesn't work. Perhaps it has something to do with Apache's default weird configuration (I'm using the stock Fedora / Red Hat Apache package... ). I'll investigate more when I have the time and let you know what I find out.

IFrames are part of the XHTML standard, so any browser that supports that, supports IFrames - basically, IE 3+, Opera 5+, Mozilla 1.x+ (this includes Firefox, which is based on Mozilla).

This may be a silly question but... are you using the same Word version (or a more recent one) both on Windows and Mac?

An MS NIC?? No wonder it wouldn't work Seriously, though, the important thing is the chip the card uses, not who made the card. If the chip is a known chip, like Realtek, Knoppix should detect it but I have no clue as to which chips an MS card uses Let us know how it goes, Don.

HC, it's not strange that you couldn't use htpasswd with your regular user. It's because the path "/usr/sbin" is not in your user's PATH but it's part of the root user's PATH environment variable. So while your regular user must type the whole "/usr/sbin/htpasswd" path to execute the program, the root user only needs to execute "htpasswd" because the system knows where to look for it. Now about the htpasswd problem, have you checked the permissions of the generated .htpasswd file? I never worked with htpasswd directly but it's the first thing that comes to my mind.

Don, which distro have you downloaded? Both MandrakeMove and Knoppix should be able to put your NIC working without a problem, unless you have a very old or very strange NIC

Oh, but Jim, those are not considered holes, those are new "features" they add to the program...

I don't know the average time for MS to release an IE patch but we all know it's much more than 24 hours...
