Hi!
I don't know why, but I cannot run netscape 4.75 as root. For example,
when in the popup Window maker
desktop menu I choose apps-net-netscape nothing happens. As normal user
I can run netscape without
any problem. But not as root!
Any suggestion will be very appreciated.
Thanks!

As David and Joerg told you that running as root appears to be a security risk
you could 1)Start a term window, 2) su a diff user, 3)cd to users dir, 4)start

Thanks a lot to David, Joerg and Scott for illuminating me regarding to
this. I don't need to run

Try editing /etc/netscape4/config
The line your looking for to enable root access is in there.

Hi there,
I have installed latest KDE debs and after that netscape won't bold out

So where is the bug now, in KDE or in netscape ?

Just fire up Netscape 4.75 and pick on Help -- About Communicator.
If the security section lists a couple of DES- then you have 128bit.

Due to the vulnerability of my old netscape 4.08, I decided to
upgrade to the woody version (Version: 4.75-1).
I installed netscape-base-4, netscape-base-475 and
netscape-java-475. The only file under a bin directory is
netscape-remote. There is no netscape command!
