Janyne, These options can go in ~/.Xresources. I haven't played with the color options like this, but from what I see on the web page you mention, it should take the form: Netscape.ncols: 256 I think that will work; but if not, try "Netscape*ncols: 256" (that doesn't look right to me, but you

Another possibility is bad memory -- if this is on an x86 machine with non-parity memory (or even if it is) I'd recommend getting memtest86 from http://www.memtest86.com/ and running it. Definitely do this if you can reboot the machine and it appears to go back to the old checksum. Jim On Tue,

You could supply the rover with a name from dnsalias.com or some such, such that every time they get a new IP, their IP gets updated in the DNS. That way you can deny and allow by host names rather than IP's... -Original Message- From: Bruce Kall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday,

The iptables firewall is not running on the same machine as the laptop, correct? Then what you need to do on the firewall is just to allow udp's to pass between laptop<->remote peer on the ports you specify in your cipe options. What have you done to troubleshoot your problems? Try running tcpdump
