I am using MacOSX. Whats the command to see who is logged into my
machine and what they are doing? As of know my Jornada 720 is logged in
via FTP.

John 1:6-9 There came a man who was sent from God;
his name was John. He came as a witness to testify
concerning that light, so that through him all men
might believe. He himself was not the light; he came
only as a witness to the light.

Last thing we need is more fearmongering psuedo-Christians (who
claim to follow Jesus yet ignore almost everything He said)
cluttering up the Internet.

I think it is better if you don't acquire any real computer
skills or learn to use a decent operating system like Unix.

No, I don't have to read any of your psuedo-Christian posts to
know where you are coming from.

Are you not leading off with a lie? You are _not_ the son of
John the Baptist.

And are you not hiding behind that psuedonym?

Could it be that you don't want anyone to know how you really
live and how wretched you are. How your beliefs don't do
anything to help you at all?

That you are doing a "Wizard of Oz", spinning feeble illusions
of happiness on the Internet?

Why else?

Just paranoia?

If your beliefs can't give you courage and honesty and freedom
from fear, what good are they?

What, exactly, do you want?

> But I will play with them more.

Have you looked at the options to the commands?

Have you tried, for example:

ps -ef

While I can understand your sentiments, and largely agree with them as well,
I'd still like to suggest nonetheless that we try to keep this group free

And incidentally, it's really not necessary to include the entire header of
the original article in your followup.

Thank you.

Followup cancelled.

Apparently, you are another fool with a computer that imagines
that everyone needs their approval or consent to say what they
feel needs saying.

Wrong.

will show IP addresses and port numbers, but not user names or what
files they are downloading. Your FTP server logs should show that
information.

Darn. I was hoping that you killfiled me. Sure did get sick of
your bitchy sniping.

That's why I killscored _you_.

I suppose that you are going on about me posting off-topic,
but I didn't start it.

The OP uses his From: header as a Subject: header. That's a
sneaky abuse of Usenet protocol.

His name is obviously NOT "John the Baptist Jr." and he chose
that name to make a statement.

In his headers he claims that he belongs to the Organization:
Heaven, to further hammer in his point.

Since he is using his From: header as Subject: header and is
posting on a Unix group, he should call himself "unixlover" or
something like that.

Or, he could quit phukking around like a stupid child and quit
hiding like a paranoid twit/petty criminal and just use his name.

But I'd bet my life that he hides behind many aliases, because
of course, Jesus taught us that all those who spread His message
must be rude, dickless, motormouthed punks, right?
