I have A used eMac that is running 10.5.8

Question

I have A used eMac Running 10.5.8, that was purchased on ebay. In keychain acess, the directory services, keychain is locked and greyed. I seem to be able to delete some or all of it, it gives me the option, to "delete the references" (files on the hardrive) or "delete the references and the files they are related to on the harddrive". Should I delete only, the references, or, the references and files? Or is there, A way, to unlock this, to see what it contains? Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

  Yes, that's, what, I did! Just, now, I tried, to delete, "references & files" from directory services. Nothing, happened, at, first, fiddling around with keychain first aid, and then I noticed, "directory services" is gone now. "Horray"! Also, vanished, is ".Mac", (which was, also, locked, and greyed) I, guess, this, is, more, my, PC, now, than, it was, before. They, didn't, have, computer, courses, when, I went, to, high school, (they, were, just new) but I'm A US Navy, trained Electrian, and knowledgeable, enough, to, decipher, the, function of, A, computer. I'm still learning, but, finding, the, functions, to, be, similar, to, any, electrical, device, that, being, logical, and, straightforward. Any, references, you could, suggest, on, becoming, more, computer, literate, would be helpful, and, I appreciate, your, effort, thanks! Really!
