I used KUser to add a user to my system and after saving the changes I made KUser expired all user accounts except the newly created one.

Hello, I am very new to FreeBSD and just installed 4.8 release. I want to upgrade this to stable. I have printed some of the pages out for makeworld and CVSUP, I am wondering what the best method for doing the updates are, downloading the individual packages and installing or using the CVSUP to do this? Currently I used mostly Red Hat Linux but have wanted to give this a try for some time

Is CentOS held to the same philosophy as Fedora by NOT including apps to play formats such mp3 etc. If this is the case, how easy is it (looking for a how-to url) to add things such as gstream-bad to a Cent install. -- Best regards, Chris -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Forgive my ignorance on this topic - I would like to build an LDAP server at our shop. We a native 2k3 domain and would like this Cent LDAP server to pull in all the info from AD.

I don't want to recreate the wheel by hand-inputing information
