Basic question: showing panel group

Hello,
I am new to Fireworks CS4. I have right-claicked on the panel group that displays the
OPTIMIZE, HISTORY, and ALIGN tabs. Now I want to open it up again but cannot
find the way how to do it.
In Flash there is a way to reset the entire workspace to its default but I cannot
find such an option in fireworks.
Any ideas on how i should proceed?
Thanks,
John Goche

Hello,
I am running Windows 7 64-bit with Fireoworks CS4.
According to the book Adobe Fireworks CS4 How-Tos: 100 Essential Techniques
a user should be able to save the current workspace via:
Window > Workspace Layouts > Save Current
However my Window menu does not display a Workspace Layouts item.
Am I looking in the wrong place? Anyone else have this issue?

Purchasing Group Basic Question

Gurus,
I have a some basic question in EBP................
1. Creating PO is Purchasing Group is mantatory.
2. Classic Scenario - If i create Shopping Cart for local Purchasing group. PO can create without error in backend(R/3).
3. Extended Classic Scenario - If i create Shopping Cart for local Purchasing group. PO Copy can create without error in backend(R/3).
Thanks

Hello,
R/3 needs always a purchasing group to create the PO.
1. Creating PO is Purchasing Group is mantatory.
Yes
2. Classic Scenario - If i create Shopping Cart for local Purchasing group. PO can create without error in backend(R/3).
I think that you need the purchasing group.
Check crmd_orderadm_h table and BBP_PD transaction
3. Extended Classic Scenario - If i create Shopping Cart for local Purchasing group. PO Copy can create without error in backend(R/3).
I have not experience in Extended Classic Scenario. I know that PO can not be canges in R/3.
Keep in mind that for R/3 the purchasing group is a mandatory field.
Hope it will help!
Cheers,
Marta

Hide/Show a Panel group or Panel Box with a command link

I need to show and hide a panel group/box that has a lot of components inside ..with a command link ...I need to do this with partial submit ....please advise.
<af:commandLink >
hide the panel box with all the comps inside it ..change commandlink text ....
use the same command link to show the panel box and change the command link
text back
</af:commandLink>
<af:panelGroup layout="vertical">
<af:panelBox>
<af:panelGroup>
ALOT of components .......
</af:panelGroup>
</af:panelBox>
</af:panelGroup>
I tried with partial trigger ..I tried everything i know ..it did not work .....it only worked I do a I full submit and setting some processScope(session) variables ..
Thanks.

Hi,
- have a managed bean in session scope
- define a boolean variable that is set to true
- expose the variable through a public method
- use EL on the panelBox rendered property to link to this boolean method
- define an action listener on the command link and set the autosubmit property to true
- use the action listener to set the boolean value
- define a value for the ID property of the command link
- set the ID vaule to the PartialTrigger property of the panelGroup component

Entities not showing Contribution - very basic question

Hi guys,
Apologies for this very basic question - I'm very new to Hyperion, with just a weeks training! Anyway I'm building a basic model and have noticed that in the Value dimension my entities are not rolling up to the [Contribution Total]. This means that Entities do not roll up!!
One suggested issue was that I needed a Sub Consolidate in the Rules, however I've set the attribute "ConsolidationRules" to be = to N. In the documentation this is defined as "N to use the default consolidation and eliminations."
Wondering is there anything else that is needed to use default consolidations, or do I need to create some Rules??
Thanks
G

Why do you think it is not rolling up? If your Consoldiation Rules are set to 'N' you do not need rules.
Make sure your accounts are set to IsConsoldiate. Make sure you are viewing a 'Parent.Child' at Contribution Total.

How do I show all Groups including Groups with Zero Sums

Post Author: mchallinor
CA Forum: Formula
This is such a basic question I'm annoyed that I can't work out the answer myself!The report is very basic:"Total Sales"Grouped on Weeks of the Year. Data Report Range 01-01-2006 to 31-12-2006.The Group Summary Totals appear for all weeks where there is at least 1 sale within that Week. But if there are NO sales for a week this does not appear as a Group Summary Total. Eg:Total Sales ReportWEEK 1Group Sum Total =      £3,004WEEK 2 Group Sum Total =      £9,000WEEK 3Group Sum Total =     £1,030WEEK 5Group Sum Total =      £900Report Grand Total = £13,934There were no sales during WEEK 4 so no Group Sum appears. I need the report to look like the following:Total Sales Report WEEK 1
Group Sum Total =      £3,004
WEEK 2
Group Sum Total =      £9,000
WEEK 3
Group Sum Total =     £1,030WEEK 4
Group Sum Total =     £0
WEEK 5
Group Sum Total =      £900Report Grand Total = £13,934How do I get the Group Sum to show for all groups even if the group sum is zero.Look forward to any suggestions.

CA Forum: Formula
Agreed - about the best way to overcome this is to have a 'dates' table in your db which has a simple structure of one column named 'date', filled from some date in the past to xxx years in the future, incrementing by a day at a time. Ask your DB guys to add this in - it's a simple task (SQL code underneath)
If you then use this as your 'starting point' table (and link your sales data to it on the date), and group by dates.date (or use it in your formula for grouping), you'll get the 'empty' groups.
SQL CODE TO CREATE A SIMPLE DATES TABLE (-5 years from today to +5 years from today):
create table crystal_dates (mydate datetime)
declare @start datetimedeclare @end datetimedeclare @now datetimeset @start = dateadd(yy,-5,CONVERT(DATETIME,FLOOR(CONVERT(FLOAT, getdate()))))set @end = dateadd(yy,5,@start)set @now = @start
while @now <=@endbegininsert into crystal_dates values (@now)set @now = dateadd(dd,1,@now)end

Possible way to prevent basic questions being asked repeatedly

hi,
could this be a possible way to prevent basic questions being asked repeatedly (and to encourage search before post) (may be atleast for newcomers to the forum, to minimize one-liner questions).
when a user tries to post the question, as the user types or in the preview screen or before he clicks on the submit button, the SCN should show the similar questions/threads (or atleast threads with exactly the same text) asked/discussed before.
then the forum user might click on the links, instead of posting a new one, as the answer could be readily available in existing threads.
this functionality i have seen in yahoo answers.
if you go to answers.yahoo.com and ask a very simple question like
"what is difference between sql and mysql"
then yahoo provides a popup "Wait, we might already have the answer you are looking for:" and it also shows the possible similar questions like:

I also think it is a cool idea, but unfortunately the "no brainers" are a small group in my experience and will not be detered by this.
We are using a new secret weapon in the past weeks against repeat offenders. Please use the Abuse Report button to report such basic questions when the person is "hard of hearing".
As a side note, also consider that some people are not fluent in English. Or even have no English language skills and use enterpreters. That is of course no reason to be a pain and break the rules (cross-posting, etc) but it does explain isolated misunderstandings.
I once called a repeat offender on the phone because he posted his telephone number in the forums. He could hardly speak any English at all, let alone write it...

How to put a few pages together as a panel group in the same screen ?

Dear Friends,
Hello. I am developing the accounting application of Journal Entry module. I have developed 5 pages for a journal entry: Journal header, Journal Line, Journal total, Journal Error and Journal Approval. I want to put 5 pages together as a panel group in the same screen so that users are convenient to use them. The format is as follows:
Header | Lines | Total | Error | Approval
When a user click on Header or Lines or Total or Error or Approval, its related page is displayed below it on the screen. But I don't understand how to put "Header", "Lines", "Total", "Error" and "Approval" together as above format and link them to its related page. Can anybody tell me how to do that ? Thanks.
Lucy

Mike,
It's correct to make 5 pages as a seperate component.
I am developing an accounting system using PeopleTools by myself.
Because you understand PeopleSoft financial application, please tell me the 2 questions as follows:
First, In Journal Line page, when select "edit Journal" and click button "process", the system check the Journal against Budget, if it's Ok, the System assign Journal ID for the Journal and put "valid" into the field of "Budget Status" and "Journal Status" in Total page. If it's not OK, the system send error message into Error page. Do you know how developer do that ?
Second, In Journal Line Page, when select "Submit Journal" and click button "process", the system send the Journal to Approval page for approval. Do you know how developer do that ?

Basic questions about the CM handling of Photoshop

I have some basic questions how Potoshop handles colour management. Most probably this has been discussed many times before, but frankly, the manual is pretty poorly written on this subject. I do understand the principle of colour management pretty well, but am not sure whether I understand what Photoshop is doing. So could somebody please comment whether my reasoning is correct or not.
Let's assume my monitor is calibrated and its profile loaded in OSX's monitor preference panel. Let's further assume I'm working strictly in RGB.
Is the following correct:
• When I open a picture which has an embedded profile, then Photoshop first calculates the "true" values from the embedded profile (whatever this means) and from this point the screen representation based on the profile which I defined in the system pref pane. So the screen representation remains always the same, regardless of the embedded profile (besides some possible conversion artefacts, especially on the edges of the colour space).
• The same holds true in the opposite direction, so when I work on that picture on screen, then no matter which RGB space I pick as my working space, the result will always be exactly the same (except those aforementioned artefacts).
• Hence it doesn't matter which RGB colour space I choose as my working space, it could be sRGB, Adobe RGB, "my own wild profile", whatever, the results are always the same. Of course the RGB values will differ, but this will be compensated by the embedded profile.
• Yet the theoretically best working space is the colour space of my monitor, because this minimizes possible artefacts.
• When I "convert" the picture from one profile into an other, then not only that new profile is assigned and embedded, but also the RGB values are recalculated accordingly, so that the result will remain the same. For example, I could first "convert" a picture from the camera space to my monitor space, then work on it, and finally "convert" it to sRGB before uploading it to a web site.
• When I "assign" a new profile, then a new profile is simply assigned and embedded but the RGB values are not adjusted. So the RGB values remain the same, but because a different profile is embedded, the picture will actually be changed. Since Photoshop will recalculate the screen representation based on that new profile (and the monitor profile), I will see this change on the screen. (This action doesn't make much sense, except maybe to simulate the possible outcome on a system which misinterprets the profile, e.g. assumes sRGB.)
• And finally, when I leave the picture untouched but change the monitor profile in the system pref pane, then of course the picture will not change, but its screen representation will change, because Photoshop uses that profile to calculate the screen representation. (This action makes even less sense, of course.)
Have I understood? Then I have two final questions:
• When I open a RGB file without any profile in it, what does Photoshop assume? How does it calculate the screen display? What does it do if I "convert" such a picture or "assign" a profile?
• If I select in the colour settings as working color space the monitor space, then the colour managment rule for RGB changes to "Colour management off" and can't be changed to a different value. I don't understand this.
Thanks for your patience.

• Yet the theoretically best working space is the colour space of my monitor, because this minimizes possible artefacts.
No.
(Edit: Any one screen usually has to be considered incidental, changing and transient and is not the target-medium, so it makes little sense to work based on its specific limitations.)
• When I open a RGB file without any profile in it, what does Photoshop assume? How does it calculate the screen display? What does it do if I "convert" such a picture or "assign" a profile?
If one opens an unprofiled file, Photoshop treats it as if it had the profile selected under RGB-Working-Space embedded and calculates display and conversion on that basis.
(Edit: And that’s the danger of unprofiled files – they would look different if someone edited them who used a different Working Space.)
Assigning such a file a profile is no different from assigning a profiled image a different profile – the RGB-values remain unchanged, the »key« for interpreting them changes and subsequently it will be displayed differently.

Possibly a very basic question but I have set up a spread sheet in Numbers and have viewed help videos but I can't get it to give me sums for the columns I highlight. Keeps coming up with the figure zero. I have version 09 2.3(554). Can anyone help

Possibly a very basic question but I am going nowhere without a solution. I have set up a spreadsheet in Numbers but it won't give me sums for chosen columns. I have viewed the run through videos and used the formula but nothing happens apart from giving a figure of zero or a red arrow. The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total as I understand from the video that you can drag whatever total is here onto the relevent position on your spreadsheet. I have Numbers 09 version 2.3 (554). Can anyone advise. Thanks.

Hi Sohojools,
To sum a column, use a formula such as this one in Cell A6
Type this in a cell below your data:
=SUM(A2:A4) or whatever range of cells you want to sum. The easy way is to type:
=SUM(
and then drag or shift-click to select the range of cells. Close the formula with a final bracket ")".
The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total
To see the sum (and other simple statistics) in the bottom left, select a range of cells. That tells Numbers which cells you are refering to.
The videos are good, but the Numbers'09 User guide, and the Formulas and Functions User Guide are better. Download them from the Help Menu in Numbers.
Regards,
Ian.

Three pretty basic questions--27" iMac, Snow Leopard

New 27" iMac. Three (ridiculously basic) questions:
1) How do I take my old 24" iMac wireless keyboard and pair it with my new computer? I really despise this little keyboard that came with the current computer.
2) I default to Preview and Text Edit when I want to use Adobe Acrobat and Word. How do I change this?
3) When I sync my iPhone it does not download the iPhone photos to iPhoto. I see the device in iPhoto. How do I download my photos into iPhoto so I have them resident on my computer and can open and manipulate in Photoshop?
THANKS THANKS THANKS

*Start your 24" iMac, click the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar at the top (it shows the clock, wifi, audio level, etc), then select the Keyboard and then disconnect.*
*Also from that bluetooth menu, goto 'Open Bluetooth Preferences' and you should see the keyboard there as well. There is a little 'minus' sign in the lower left of that window. Select the Keyboard and press the minus sign and it should remove the Keyboard from that iMac.*
*On your new iMac, make it discoverable (the device and the new Mac), and you should be able to pair it from there.*
2) I default to Preview and Text Edit when I want to use Adobe Acrobat and Word. How do I change this?
*Answered in previous posts.*
3) When I sync my iPhone it does not download the iPhone photos to iPhoto. I see the device in iPhoto. How do I download my photos into iPhoto so I have them resident on my computer and can open and manipulate in Photoshop?
*Shot in the dark. So open up iTunes with your iPhone connected/plugged into your Mac.*
*on the left side of iTunes where you see your iPhone, click on the iPhone icon. And on the window next to left bar you should see a row of tabs at the top and at the far right you should see a tab for Photos.*
*Click on that tab and select Sync photos.*
*That should allow you to sync your photos from your iphone to your iphoto library*
hope that helps

Basic Questions on BOBJ inrelation with BI

Hi,
I am working in SAP BI 2004s. I have few basic questions on BOBJ.
1. What is Rapid Mart? Is it an ETL tool? If so is it set to replace existing BI extractors from ECC (R3)?
2. when data is extracted thru Bussiness Obejcts rapid mart where the data will be stored? BI Info Cubes? or any data ware house tables?.
3. If stored in BI InfoCubes, should universe to be created for the cubes? if so, each dimesnion will be treated like a table to create joins?
4. Can I automate the result of WebI downloaded to excel to Excelcius Dashboard with any manual steps involved? in otherwords Xcelcius shows the chart or dashboard out of the WebI query result.
( I am trying to see how all these products work. In 2004s I use WAD and call individual queries to generate a dashboard)
Thanks,
Alex.

Hi,
1. What is Rapid Mart? Is it an ETL tool? If so is it set to replace existing BI extractors from ECC (R3)?
A Rapid MArt is a pre-designed set of database schemas, universes and reports from BusinessObjects. Available for SAP ERP as well. Details can be found here : http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/large/intelligenceplatform/im/data-integration/rapidmarts/index.epx
2. when data is extracted thru Bussiness Obejcts rapid mart where the data will be stored? BI Info Cubes? or any data ware house tables?.
When it is a Rapid Mart then it is a relational database but the tool - Data Services - can also load to other targets like BW.
3. If stored in BI InfoCubes, should universe to be created for the cubes? if so, each dimesnion will be treated like a table to create joins?
You can create multi dimensional universes and relational universes on top of BW. Depends on your goal really.
4. Can I automate the result of WebI downloaded to excel to Excelcius Dashboard with any manual steps involved? in otherwords Xcelcius shows the chart or dashboard out of the WebI query result.
( I am trying to see how all these products work. In 2004s I use WAD and call individual queries to generate a dashboard)
Yes - possible.
perhaps you can provide a little bit more on what you trying to achieve and then I can point you to more specific information.

Basic Questions (Compressor/Qmaster)

I can't find answers to some really basic questions:
1. To distribute Compressor tasks, is Qmaster and Compressor required on all participating Macs?
2. Are they required to be exactly the same version across the participating Macs?
3. Are they required to have unique serial numbers? (I tried to start Compressor on a second Mac that had been installed from FCS 5.1 Crossgrade package that resides on original Mac - all that was on the second Mac was Compressor and Qmaster - Qmaster didn't seem to mind, but Compressor gave me a warning message and terminated....)
4. Assuming the above issues have been resolved as required, does Compressor have to be started on the "Services Only" Mac in order to assist in the processing?
Again, my apologies for the level of these questions....
Stan

1. No - just use the Qmaster node installer (In the extras folder of Final Cut Studio install disc).
2. Yes - same versions of Qmaster
3. The nodes don't require a serial number.
4. No - just turn on Services in the Apple Qmaster panel of System Prefs. On the nodes, check Share and Managed and click the "Start Services" button. Set up the Nodes as Services only and your Controller (the machine with Compressor installed) as Services and cluster controller. Then use Qadmin to set up the cluster.

Basic questions. Accessing documents

Hello,
I have few very basic questions. I don't see an obvious way to access documents from within any CS6 app. Is this something that should be possible, or do files have to be uploaded/downloaded from the browser interface? I downloaded and installed trial versions of the Master Collection. When CS6 became available, it seemed to know I was a member because it no longer prompts me to "continue trial." However, several apps show as not installed in the download manager accessable from within CC.
Also, what does the subscription include as far as website publishing. Five sites is what the literature says. Is this five trial sites. I have a site I setup as a test. It's accessable through xxxx.businesscatalyst.com, but when I click "push to live" I am promoted to choose a monthly plan. I really don't need the service, but just curious what level is included.
Also, also, while I can access the creative cloud and it shows 20gb and all apps, my account shows nothing about being a Creative Cloud member.
Sorry for these basic questions.
-Hugh

Hi David,
Getting a lot of email time with you. Thank you for being helpful. I have one Adobe ID. Answers to your questions below:
For accessing documents within the CS6 apps, you could go through cloud storage if you wanted to transfer between locations or computers but saving your work to the computers HD is the same as past versions.
OK, I must be dense. I don't see an obvious way to transfer. Don't need a full tutorial, just point me to a menu item or window tab or anyplace. I'll figure it out from there.
I haven't tested using the Master Collection myself but I would be curious if you launch one of the products which show as not installed within the Adobe Application Manager window does it show as being a trial still? Does just launching make any difference?
No, the apps launch without the 30-day trial notice. Everything seems to be working normally except for not showing as installed through the CC site.
I did install the Master Collection trial Thursday night expecting the launch of CC to be delayed or on California time (East Coast here). Launched a few apps before discovering access (actually a little before midnight--good job). It seems the apps I launched before the service went live are the apps that display as not installed. But not 100-percent sure.
For the website question, I was wondering if it might be because you weren't signed in to Muse with your Adobe ID, it should be the same one as Creative Cloud.
I was promoted to login at the Business Catalyst site from the "manage" link in CC (same with typekit--every time I access)--same (and only) Adobe ID I have. I was also logged in through Muse. I'm sure of that.
Did you receive an email saying that your subscription service was activated? Are you logged into the Creative Cloud website with the same Adobe ID? It almost sounds like you are not signed in or the subscription is not activated?
Other than a few phone calls and online chats with folks at Adobe, this forum is the only (semi) official notification I've recieved. When I called the Customer Service number, the rep told me it would automatically convert (which it seems to have done since I can access and download). But the rep (nore online chat sessions) ask for my Adobe ID.
I checked my spam folder, etc., to make sure nothing was missed from Adobe. Nothing received. As an FYI, I did get the auto notice telling me I was charged for the monthly Design Premium 5.5 subscription on May 10 (just like clockwork).
Also try clearing your browser cache, closing and reopening the browser, oddly enough I've heard that can make a difference in some cases.
I'll try that. Also read elsewhere that uninstalling and reinstalling has helped with other issues. Also read about deleting config files to cause CS6 to reset. Haven't tried it. Would like to know my subsciption status first.
OK, so another basic question, How do I activate my subscription. Call customer service again? Some place on the website? Friends at Adobe ;-)
Thanks much.
-Hugh
BTW, I'm very happy with CS6 so far. Being super productive since Friday night. Not getting much sleep, but having a lot of fun learning/developing some pretty cool stuff.

Basic questions on iPhone apps. Please help!

Hey I have a few semi-basic questions about iPhone apps. If you know the answers to any of them please respond as it would help me ton. Even if you dont know the exact answer, it'll help me with any input. Trapster is a good example of what im looking for because it uses a map and it receives/sends small amounts of data constantly.
1) How much on average does it cost to hire a group of people to code an app for you. Specifically, how much do you think the app Trapster took to program? Are there any specific other apps you know how much it took to code? I need estimates, because I have nothing. A number like 50,000 would help a ton more other then saying "it depends" .....
2) Apps like Trapster, send and receive small amounts of data all the time? What controls all of this data? Im guessing a server. But what are the server's specs? How many? Price per month?
3) With 3.0 SDK now out, you are now allowed to implement google maps into 3rd party applications. Now I know you cannot use it for turn-by-turn navigation. But can you still use the directions feature already on google maps? Can you still use the search feature to search for a restaurant as well? Or maybe you can just see the map and thats it. Does anyone know exactly what you can use with google maps or know where there is more information? Ive tried everywhere.
4) Just tell me if this is correct: You can add advertisements into your app. On average, for every 1000 times your app gets opened, you get about 1.00-2.00. So if your app gets opened 2,000,000 times you get $2,000 from advertising if you get 1.00/1000. Is that accurate as an average?
5) Since 3.0 now supports push notifications, would you be able to have anything at all running in the backround? For example, on trapster, if you approach a red light camera, the app beeps. With 3.0, if you are on the home screen and approaching the camera, is there a way of getting the iphone to beep even though your just on the iphones main screen or any other screen? Im guessing not because in order to receive the push the iphone needs to know your current location and the location of the camera, which is why the app would need to be running. Incase im wrong is there a way of doing this?
6) If an app is free and does not do advertising, does it make any money? If so how?
Thanks!

>"If an app is free and does not do advertising, does it make any money? If so how?"
Of course.
It's called 'reputation earned'. You negotiate your future based on attention from something (a free app?) that amazes the known world. Could be a book deal after you spend your young/old life crossing the divide - could be a marriage proposal that brings great wealth - could be a cabinet position with a station in a foreign tax haven.
Use your imagination.
As for cost, pull a number out of your hat and then double it...then double it again. Same goes for time, staff and delays.

Basic Questions from Prospective Lion Server Switcher

I have five servers I am running right now using Windows 2003 Server and various 3rd party packages.     Several years ago I became a Mac fan, moved all of my client based stuff to Mac, and now want to start moving my server based equipment to the OSX platform.
I stopped by my local Apple Store, and they had a version of OSX Lion Server running on a MacMini, but couldn't seem to answer the most basic of questions because as their business people stated "We are not Server Certified" ... they recommended I talk to an outside consultant to get these basic questions answered which seems a little extreme.
So I'm hoping the group can help.
(1) I read through most of the Lion Server Advanced Administrative manual.    Lion server appears from the manual to do most of what I need.   However, when I tried doing some of the functions in the manual on the demo Lion Server at the Apple Store, many of the functions I wanted to do did not seemed to either be installed, or their were buttons missing in the Server App.     I do not know if this was a permission level problem, because the account I setup for myself had administrative rights.
(2) In the mail app, it only appeared you could setup one mail domain.    It appeared you could setup virtual domains and users through the user app, but not through the mail domain itself?
(3) I could not find any where to enable DNS services.    The manual seems pretty straight forward in turning on DNS, but the Lion Server I saw had no DNS services running, or any way to enable them?
(4) Same for mailman listserv type function ... manual seems to be straight forward on enabling under the mail server, but again, no signs of the settings or enabling under the mail service.
(5) Under the mail app, didn't find any way to setup alternative SMTP ports ( I allow now Port 26 besides the standard Port 25 and SSL ports for my users.) ... I find port 26 gets past most firewalls at hotels etc.      Didn't see any way to control SMTP authentification too.
(6) Under the Lion Server tech description, it talk about a built in web editor, saw nothing of the kind.
So did the apple store have a limited install or am I missing something that the lion server manual does not match the capabilities of lion server.
Love to get a straight answer before purchasing hardware to replace 5 present machines.
Thank you.
David

Thanks for quick response.   Indeed, in hindsight, it appears that they had only installed the Server App, but not the Server Admin tools.
Unfortunately, I am not a system admin, but I played one on TV <grin>
All kidding aside ... I'm willing to learn, but would need most of the basics controlled through the GUI ... and then feel comfortable reading up and editting configuration files and running commands from the Terminal.
On this line, is there good documentation of this, or is this something that you know because you are familiar with Unix?    ie something like the alternate port issue ... is this something in the GUI, or something I would have to edit via Terminal?
Just trying to make an informed decision before jumping platforms.
Thanks
David
