- Hi, I would like to thank Kurt Hockenbury for helping me with the
- pwd problem.
-
- To those who are having similar problems, check the the group
- and user permission for the '/' directory. That was what I was
- screwed up with.
-
- In any event, I've still got some problems with the following
- topics.
-
- 1) TCP/IP installation. I can't figure out how to install
- servers and stuff like that. I've read the stuff 'bout
- TCP/IP, but maybe it's just I'm dumb, but I don't understand
- them. Firstly, I did follow the instruction, but I had
- a hard time figuring out the following items:-
-
- i) What is an IP Address?
- ii) What is a Net Address?
- iii) What is the Router Address, and what is a Router?
- iv) What does rc.net do?
-
- 2) The dreaded phrase that I have been throwing around here:
- REMOTE LOGINs. Yes. I'm still figuring out 'uugetty',
- 'getty','init' and stuff related to logins. I hope someone
- can 'take my hand' and guide me through this.
-
-
- Any help appreciated....
-
- In any event, Happy New Year, guys/gals.
