Dear Marian and friends:
Looks like the SO save and backup saga goes on.
I am sure the problem is either with the partitioning ( / plus /home /bs
) or with permissions. Hopefully, someone will figure it out. It's
probably a very simple problem, that is, if you are really familiar with
these thi

We use linux to log several other system's activities. The daily end result is a

time of 00:22:25 or around there. It is only today that I have really begun to keep a
close eye on it w/ %cpu,%mem, etc. Befo

You need to download the FP2000 extensions from Microsoft. They're a bit
difficult to find. Note, the FP extensions demand root access to your machine.

Dear John:
Very reassuring to know that SO will save across all drives and

By the way, what is NFS, please, and how does it factor into this
situation?
Thanks so much.
