Extracting / Installing a TAR file I have added the Successful extraction in the description, as the VM I am using, I can't copy and paste the list of files. So I had to write it out in the description instead. |

How to Add rules to IP Filter (Firewall in SCO) Thank you for your answer, but that site is for FreeBSD, and OK it might help a bit, but reading through that gave me a headache in the first place. |

How to Add rules to IP Filter (Firewall in SCO) I just tried going in to the /etc/ipf.conf file, and it says it is a new file. I did this in both my user and root profile. |

How to Add rules to IP Filter (Firewall in SCO) Do you think I should try the same but for like port 80 and 81 as well? Or is that already included (default)? - I haven't tried adding the rules, just got into work now. |

Can I use `apt-get` to upgrade to the latest version of Nagios? Thanks @cwd, but honestly, I wasn't necessarily going for the bounty, just giving my answer, as I thought (well I'm working on Ubunutu) I might try to help out. Sorry I missed the question, I thought I understood it. I hope you have it sorted out soon mate. |

Why does Firestarter say my firewall is active but ufw status shows it as inactive? Aren't they different programs? I know they are both firewalls, but surely if you have Firestarter enabled and active, ufw won't know anything about if Firestarter is active or not? |

Can I use `apt-get` to upgrade to the latest version of Nagios? Why a downvote? I know, for myself, if I need a file on my OS, I will do anything to get it installed. Please explain to me why this was downvoted? I don't understand. |

What does GID mean? I have just seen my permissions on the tmp folder is drwxrwxrwt .... 2 sys .... sys .... 1024 Jul 24 15:17 tmp. What does the abbbcccddt (letter 't') mean? - I understand that "d=directory", "rwx=read, write, execute"; but I have never seen the 't' at the end before. Is that special permission for the tmp folder? |

No permission on external drive Are you able to log in as the root? Also try using the sudo command. You haven't mentioned what OS you are using. |

What does GID mean? Ah awesome, thanks for that. So therefore, the Sticky Bit is like a personal (user) permission? That answer was well worded and understandable. |

Color of the fonts in my remote terminal screen when using VI in linux Have you checked the settings in your PuTTY program? Maybe the settings are different for each login. I know you can change the color in PuTTY. |
