Lost my user -
by Bob Goodwin
Much to my surprise I was unable to boot my F-20/64bit [box10] computer
this morning.
Booting from rescue on the install DVD shows that there is no user
listed under /home. I was able to add user rfg with a password but still
can't boot normally and user "rfg" is empty anyway.
I can't even guess why this has happened and it looks to me like the
simplest thing will be to re-install?
Any suggestions before I start that process will be appreciated; I don't
expect much though,
Bob

should "kill --list" actually work on my f20 system?
by Robert P. J. Day
first time i noticed this -- was demonstrating the "kill" command in
a training course this week, showed "kill -l", had students check man
page for "kill" which suggested that "kill --list" should also work,
but:
$ kill --list
bash: kill: -list: invalid signal specification
$
am i doing something wrong? man page also suggests:
-L, --table
Similar to -l, but will print signal names and their corresponding
numbers.
but:
$ kill -L
bash: kill: L: invalid signal specification
$
should those work? am i missing something? is it a bug?
rday
p.s. the synopsis on the man page says nothing about "-L".

Database -> web-based dynamic pivot table - does it exist?
by Max Pyziur
Greetings,
I've been trying to find a mechanism to directly connect a database to a
dynamic web-based pivot table.
The functionality exists for MS Excel (connections can be made from either
SQL server or Access to Excel).
Any suggestions on where to look?
Thanks.
