Derek et al, Thanks for all the suggestions. I was finally able to get this working with the help from a good friend who is basically a Linux God. Incidentally you can check his site our here: linode.com.
Anyhow, I edited the appropriate /etc/fstab line adding my userid for my user account after the codepage part. Went something like: ..codepage=850,rw,uid=500 0 0 After un-mounting /mp3s and remounting all, everything works perfectly. I have booted to windows to test things there but it should be okay. Thanks all, hopefully one day I can answer someone elses question.. anyone need Web development help? lol -A On Tue, 2003-10-14 at 17:02, Derek Jennings wrote: > On Tuesday 14 Oct 2003 10:44 pm, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > (Man, half the e-Mails I'm getting today are bounces from > > the list.
