Boa and Users

2003-10-11 Thread Stuart Robinson
I'm playing with the boa package (from unstable) and I'm curious about
the user boa runs on? does www-data exist in debian as a user from
install, or does the boa package create it? I'm presuming it has no
password? Should it? 

FYI I've previously run boa on redhat (I don't know it it was the right
thing to do) as 'nobody'

Cheers, Stu

 File a bug report.  'apt-get install reportbug', run reportbug, and follow
 instructions.

Partitions and format

2003-10-07 Thread Stuart Robinson
Hello all,

I'm two days into my first debian install *hurrah*  (how nice is apt?)
Sorry. 

Question: I've forgotten what kind of format my linux partitions are (I
suspect I chose 'linux' (ext3?)- how can I tell and if I really would
prefer a journalling format can I change it without a reinstall? 

For info: started with plain bf24/stable then dist-upgraded to testing,
then again to unstable. I'm pleasantly surprised that worked actually!

Thanks in advance

Stu
