Patched 2 lines in 2 files of it. So it compiled, ohh I was happe ;) But starting it, I get the following: unofficial$ screen Directory /tmp/uscreens/S-Patrick must have mode 700. Now Patrick is my user name and I suppose it is some socket locking or stuff like that, which will be done in that dir, but I really don't know, I am a newbie. Now I am able to set mode 700 to that dir, using $ chmod 700 /tmp/uscreens/S-Patrick but than he complains about Directory '/tmp/uscreens' must have mode 777. which I am not able to set, anymore. I suppose because I am in the group None, but I don't know how to create groups and how to add me to one. Here the ls output: /tmp$ ls -l total 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 patrick None 0 Apr 24 09:22 screens drwxr-xr-x 3 patrick None 0 Apr 24 09:44 uscreens Even I donna know if this would fix the real problem, I just wonna run screen, and the only port I've found was Glenn_s Cygwin port of Screen-3.07.06 (FAU) 25-Nov-98 which had some trouble with my prompt settings. Would bge very glad if someone could point me to the right direction, I am sure there are lots of u using screen. thx pazzo p.s. include a direct cc to my mail adress, couse on the mailing list is soooo much traffic, I even didn't manage to unsubscribe (would like only the digests), but thats another story :) -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Save software competition, use Linux and Java! | | Also visit http://www.lugbz.org the Linux User Group in Southtyrol! | | Public PGP KEY: http://www.lugbz.org/PGP_PatrickOhnewein.asc |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Confidence is the feeling you have before you understand the situation. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
