Thanks for the posted Info, it has gotten me a stage further than I was before! however..... I am having more problems... It may be something to do with my Java, I dont know. I have pasted the Terminal session below, can you see if you can throw any light on it? I have only been using Linux for just over 6 weeks now, and my knowledge is a little bit limited, to say the least! FYI, i am running on Mandrake 9.2, AMD K6 processor, with 392MB RAM

Thanks, JRH

Terminal Paste:
