[General] to Peter Hofer and machine

[Ernst W. Winter]

Hello Peter,

well I have sent you two emails and told you that I have set up a
AM2-64 DualCore machine for you people so you have something for your
devleopers and whatever you need, there is also a fixed IP for it.

I talked with Daniel but he was in a hurry to get out as he still was
on a businesstrip to Munich. So I haven't heard anything.

I sent you the passwords for it and all but I think it was
misunderstood and so I sent another one to explain. I also sent you
the log from the machine that someone tried to log in and couldn't as
root.

Well, I can only say as long as I use it ther was never a login as
root and especially these days as security risk. You can log in as
user and then change to root.

Here some of the errors:

I have sent you why ds couldn't go root and no answer, mind you I
have email and a Telefon.

Please let me know if you want the machine or not for your team and
research, or at least let me know that you have problems to log in.

That's all for now until I have a decent answer or if anyone has time
to answer me.

Ernst
