Hi, I don't know why, whenever I "touched" my admin network options, it tries to overwrite my /etc/resolve.conf file, and this causes me not able to connect to the www properly. I have to take some time to figure out this problem when it occurs and I have to login as root to edit the file. I wish to make the file not overwriteable. I already chmod the file to 444 only, but it seems still to be able to be overwrited, the system seems to have the power of root. I wonder if I could "fix" the file somehow so that the system can't modify it.
Thanks,
Ted
on front cover images of albums. Since I keep the front cover images in the same directory as the mp3 files making the image immutable helps me avoid mistakes like
Code:
id3v2 -a Foreigner *
in which case the poor image would have undesirable id3 tag information were it not immutable. That's just one example. And my 2 cents worth.

Reason: Proper [CODE] usage
