Hi Arthur: When setting up your desktop you should have two options; one join a domain or join a workgroup. If you have your own server, or running you station like a server then you will have to have a registered domain and most likely your own server to manage the domain and stations connected to it. If you don't have that then don't bother. If in the future things change you can always add yourself to a domain. If you are just a stand-alone station, just create/join yourself to a workgroup. Workgroup just suggest a peer to peer type relationship between any other computers you may have in the network and no centralized security or control. (Every station is equal) Note: You can always change it in the future is things evolve. Ultimate administration is run more on a command to command bases. If you want to go in admin mode with a particular command, just enter in the command you want in the input field "Search programs and files" and above in the same panel, will appear the closest match(es) to the program you entered. On the command you will be entering on, right-mouse-click and select administrator from the properties options. That error you are getting; is it on 0.0.0.0 or 0.0.0.80, which would suggest an Apache error... Apache needs to always run in admin mode. If you want to always run an application in admin mode, change setting right-mouse-click on the application's .exe file, select the "Run this program as an Administrator" check box, and then click OK twice.

Now and then I run into a problem when trying to install some package. I'm told I must run it as Administrator. My normal login is Arthur, who has Admin privileges. So I don't understand what the problem is. There's no icon for Administrator so I don't know how to log in as him. On the particular file I'm trying to install (the latest Apache from the MSI file), when I right-click, there's no option for "Run as Administrator." During the installation, I am asked for domain. I don't have a registered DNS. Can I enter just anything? I am also asked for server name. I have been entered my ID address. Is that correct? Then I get this error message in a CMD window: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions. : make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0 No listening sockets available, shutting down Unable to open logs For the moment, I've uninstalled the program. Any suggestions gratefully accepted. -- Arthur Cell: 647.710.1314 Prediction is difficult, especially of the future. -- Niels Bohr _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
