Not sure if you tried this already but you could try changing a setting under System >> Admin >> Login window: Select "Local" tab and then "Show actions menu" under the menu bar. This changes the options available under the System menu. Martin wrote: Hi, On Wed, Sep 17, 2008 at 12:33 AM, M

I figured out the source of the problem...My iptables script in /etc/rcS.d/ is messing up everything! I have S40 as Networking and S41 as iptables, what is a better way to do this? Or at least an alternative that won't mess everything up. On Mon, 19 Feb 2007 08:05:43 -0500 Michael Pobega <[EMAI
