I finally removed winblows from my system entirely, and reinstalled. Problem is, midnight commander won't let me view files anymore unless i am root. When i hit F3 for view, it says 'can't create temporary command file'. I belong in groups wheel, network, operator, and my own group. I haven't rebooted since changin the groups, but i don't know if that would make a difference. Is there a file permission i missed somewhere? -=> jm <=- "The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long, and you have burned so very, very brightly."
