Hey there friends, I have been working on a desktop solution for home users, I have discovered from client feed back and support that 90% of all calls logged are as a result of simple apps requiring root access. So I removed the need to put in passwds on some of the user PCs and they are happy. I know what you are going to say to that but hear me out first. End-users who are new to Linux easy irritated by passwd prompts, My one customer made a (I think valid ) comment: He said and I quote "I should be given the option to choose whether or not I want a passwd protected system. Why do other people tell me what I need." OK now in fairness to his situation I can see how this is. He is a stand alone box with no access to the internet from home. His box drives a Lexmark printer and Primax Scanner. He uses a USB memory stick as removable storage and a cdwriter for backup. So I did the same on my PC and guess what, there is a huge difference in performance. Why would that be? -- Chadley - Linux Rocks Welcome to my world. ****************************************************************** This mail is free for distribution.
