Please some advice. grtz en tnx.
Falko tnx for the reply, as I said before, I'am a complete newbie @ Linux. Thats why I made this install in VMware, and I haven't found I way to copy and paste from the Howto site, to the VI editor running in Linux, under VMware. So I thought I made maybe a typo, and deleted the image, and try again. Maybe you have a tip for me, how about to copy en paste? Grtz from here.
Connect to the vm with an SSH client such as PuTTY. You can use copy & paste in PuTTY. http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
