Hi there. I'm having a little trouble and I'm hoping one of you friendly
gurus (gurii?) out there can help me.
I support a network of a couple hundred pc here at work. All of them have

At home, I have a redhat 6.0 linux box as my default ga
New users aren't added only to the /etc/passwd file. Use the 'adduser' command
to achieve what you want, and I'm sure you'll get the desired effect.

Hi all

and change passwd for the added users

if you can use a windows boot disk you can get to an prompt and type fdisk
mbr which will return your master boot record to the original 'windows'

Hi Billy,
Thanks for your 2 emails and advice. I did try with redhat boot and rescue
disks,
including booting from redhat CD to fdisk but without a solution reached.
The screen hanged after the boot/rescue disk or CD started, disallowing me
to proceed further. I don't know the cause of this inc
