*cough*FTP servers*cough* After all, you did say that this machine was

That's never a helpful thing. When people come up to me and say things
like that I just tend to turn around and say, "you broke, you fix" :)
Maybe you/he could redirect the output of the makes etc to a file and then
put that somewhere for all to see?
Sorry if this is a bit of a stating the obvious moment but I felt that I
should at least *try* to say something constructive after poking fun out
of the CD drive thing. ;)
