use 'UID 0' instead of 'root'. In other words, there is no real use in renaming
the root user.

Hello Hans
I thought that too, but there are no proxies defined for gnutella (it
simply does nothing when I do set one).
I even tried to do 'unset http_proxy' befor launching.

Hi,
I never said the problem could be solved by setting a proxy somewhere
:-)
The point is that support for proxies wrt the cache nodes hasn't been
implemented yet...
Your best bet is probably to go to the #gtk-gnutella irc channel on
irc.openprojects.net, and ask for a working node there,

Hey Brian,
I had the same problem that you describe below on my FreeBSD V4.7-p2
system. The problem is that one of the X11 driver source files for the
Cirrus GD5446 graphics chip (alp_xaam.c) has a #define DEBUG statement
in it that results in the debugging output in the log that you describe.
I use DC-gui, a direct conect client for Linux.

Oh you can... BUT if the admin user is UID 0 then admin == root if the
admin user != root and != UID 0 then the admin user doesn't have full
root ability... unless you stand on your head with permissions.

When I log into gnome with a particular user name gconfd-2 runs and

I'm not sure what is causing this, but it appears user specific.
Can anyone suggest a solution for me to be able to use this user without
such a problem?
Well what about the su command? Can't you get full root access with it?
I mean at least as much as anyone would need.
Here is the thing. On a Windows XP system you can desginate
administrative users. When the system detetects that there are
administrative users available it automatically
Well OK, but for example I notice that Redhat RPMs frequently use the
/usr/local directories differently from Mandrake and likely other
distributions do also. Is there nowhere where I can find out about this?

As to restricting root login, that's easy. Your sshd config file
