have you tried to re-size the pupfile or maybe save large data files outside of the pupfile?

just make sure you are running java and have, say, 128 MB RAM.

it's difficult to stop anyone from using technology in stupid ways.. along with RTFM one must also have some commonsense.

Are you running a mailserver and want to scan for stuff that is passing through?

If not, why bother?

Have you tried CDCEther? It's in the the complete modules package (check the ftp sites, for example: http://www.puppyfiles.us ), just extract CDCETher.o, put it wherever you like, and <insmod CDCEther.o>, and then run the Ethernet/Network Wizard.. Also, try searching this forum for "USB + CDCEt...

If you have a look around the CTorrent forums you will find a link to an enhanced version of CTorrent that displays file download progress.

The error about PERMIT being in dotted decimal format doesn't make sense. I received the same error and couldn't resolve it. The firewall documentation is incorrect? Have you searched the forums at http://projectfiles.org/firewall? There are two similar posts about this but neither seemed applicable...

you can do this: # /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall restart That will apply the changes you've made and is better than rebooting. Your formating for PERMIT is correct but I've found with this firewall (http://projectfiles.org/firewall) that PERMIT does not really allow inbound connections, it only opens the po...

the firewall doesn't have any alarm if something goes wrong, but you can enable logging. I would suggest looking here: http://projectfiles.com/firewall. as to what i wrote earlier about how Linux Firewall is easy to configure for bittorrent -- I RECANT! lol While it is very easy to use the firewall ...

Oh, instead of the significantly ansynchronous converstion on this forum maybe you'd like to enter the chat at #puppylinux on freenode. this could have been handled in two minutes -- there's helpful and knowledgable puppy people there most often (the chat link at the top of the page is currently wro...

you'll need to open the file with a text editor. just use rox to go to the .icewm directory (of course you'll have to choose 'show hidden files' by clicking the appropriate icon on menu of rox once you're in /root) and click on the preferences file and beaver will open the file. That should do it.

Edit /root/.icewm/preferences MailCommand="thunderbird" Do a search for the text MailCommand in the file preferences. Or else scroll way down and squint! Does that change the email client on the menu bar? And if you want to have IceWM monitor a pop3 account you can do a search for "ma...

I've been running snownews for at least a month now and like it. When used together with a text browser (e.g., eLinks) I can read through news stories lightning fast. I also changed some of the keybindings so that I only have to have one hand on the keyboard and use slight fingerstrokes to navigate ...

a good first thing new users can do is:

# vimtutor

As firewall only close some ports, I think the net connection won't slow down. Is it true? eMeRy The firewall wizard default mode will close all ports thus making you invisible on the net except with regard to pings, which it responds to. I don't understand your question about the firewall "on...

Why does the chat link at the top of this page go to the old abandoned chat room on ircq-net? There's not even a link to the new chat. And why do new users have to register before entering the chat? With the mixed up links and having to register, check email, after manually locating the chat from th...

if you're talking about the one that comes with 1.0.7 then it works great. The wizard makes it especially easy to configure. For example, opening ports for a bittorrent client is a piece of cake. Also, I've tested the firewall on several security testing sites and it seems to be solid.

open the following file as text:

/root/.etc/profile

and edit

PS1="# "

to whatever you like, for example:

PS1="$ "

Then save and enjoy your new prompt.

GuestToo speaks wisdom. Use the Edit button and it'll work.

there's still some wrinkles to be ironed out with BitTorrent client and Puppy, such as the newer versions of BitTorrent only work with new versions of PyGTK, which requires a newer version of a Glib library, which is problematic for Puppy to recognize.. which leads to compiling errors. Some chat abo...
