help! my system seems borked
So, I installed Amahi and had everything running fine. I then wanted to install Virtual Box, so I did that, as well as DKMS (which VB seemed to want). Everything was ok, except VB wouldn't run the install of Windows XP. When I asked on the Fedora forums, and showed them the error message I was getti...

Re: Removing users
I'm not sure I remember what I did, besides installing Amahi - does the Amahi installer ask to create a user? Or does it have a screen where you confirm the user name? Once I installed Amahi and rebooted, there were 2 user entries on the log in screen, the only difference being the case of the first...

Removing users
So when I set up Amahi, it set up a new user on my Fedora install.
The original user I had was my name with a capital "J," and Amahi set up a new user with a lower case "j". Can I delete the lower case? If so, what's the best way to do that?
Thx!

Re: using Amahi and newbie questions

Re: using Amahi and newbie questions
cool, thx, I'll go with Cat 5e then. I'm getting about 20Mbps down and .5Mbps up right now...so I guess the Gbit only speeds up things on my internal network anyway?

Re: using Amahi and newbie questions
awesome, thx! One last question (for now :): I assume I should go gigabit ethernet? I have an older Linksys router which is great, but it doesn't support 1000Mbps. So I was thinking of getting this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127060, and then using the linksys just as a...

Re: using Amahi and newbie questions
Thx so much for the responses! A few more quick questions: 1. Do I need to buy a domain name to use with the VPN? 2. I was thinking about installing Win XP Media Center in a VM - can I do that? I found this tutorial: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/xp-mode-ubuntu,2434.html. If it's possible, and...

I'm pretty new to Linux (besides playing around with Ubuntu a little here and there). Here's what I want to do: 1. Use the hda as a second backup for my windows machines 2...
