Ok, sorry about that. It's there, but what the heck? If you use Emelfm to look for that file, it doesn't show it.

Also, there are a couple of those files floating around, but I can't edit the other ones. How do I get write access?

Do I have to log out and log in as root? And if I change those values, do they stay changed when I log in as dsl?

Thanks, and yes, I'm getting one of those "Linux for Dummies" books tomorrow...really.

Hi!

As user DSL you should have write-access to all files in your /home/dsl directory.

For Aterm you can type for example "beaver [file]" to open and edit this file. Just save it when your finished and you should be done.

From emel just change the settings to see hidden files, click the file you want and choose open with command, type in beaver and your done aswell.

Hope it helps,

Jan
