X Windows Control Panel
I hope I'm posting to the right place. I have Redhat 5 installed on a
server for a small network I have here at home. I also use samba for my
Win95 box and netatalk for my Mac. I still consider myself kind of a newbe,
even though I have made this mess work. The problem I'm having is with the
Control Panel in X-windows. Some of the functions, such as the printer
config tool and the file system tool don't work anymore. I've done a 'ps
ef' and see that there are zombie processes started each time I try to run
one of the non-functioning tools.
Does anyone have any ideas on what to look for to fix this? I hate to have
to reinstall or even reboot, because 'top' says "up 13 days" :-)
Are there any command line tools to do the same functions? I usually don't
have X-windows running, and it would be nice not to have to start it up just
to do some simple configuration.
