[QUOTE="hagen, post: 271885, member: 15897"] Maybe so, maybe no, but that ducks my question. I'm very experienced with that other OS that has no protection at all from users. I'm accustomed to "rooting" around in it, and very successful at keeping it safe and running smoothly. I will learn OS X pretty quickly. The reason I went into root was to back up data, manually, from the method on this page - [url]http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106941[/url] That done, I should disable the root account. NetInfo Manager is an often-used method, I'm given to understand. Now how about the question - Is it normal for NetInfo Manager to need Internet access? If the answer is no, then I appear to have a problem. If yes, I'll probably have more questions. [/QUOTE]
