View 3 Replies View Relateddue to an exercise in Operating Systems I have to do the following: There are 6 users, user1, user2 ... user6 with home directories /users/user1 ... users/user6.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI installed Linux Mint 9 a couple of days ago (from a live usb) and my 'Account type' was set as 'Custom'.
I had to change the 'Account type' to 'Administrator' so I could edit the 'Network Manager' configuration (the 'Apply' button in Network Manager was disabled until I changed to Administrator).
Is it ok to leave it as 'Administrator' or should I change it to 'Desktop user' until I need to change system settings again?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have created a Joomla! website on a subdomin that I host. The site has a mangement section URL... and I am trying to secure the administrator section only using SSL/https.So far I created the self-signed certificate and installed mod_ssl. I have added a *:443 virtual hosts in my httpd conf .This is really confusing me because the page exists, it works for http and https is just another protocol. Its almost like ssl does not have permission to access those files... Is there something im missing in ssl.conf or http.conf?I am not entirely sure I am going about this the right way.
I had a quick search through the joomla forums and found lots of errors, but not really any instructions. I have done some google searches and there seems to be about 10 different ways to skin the cat.
