Preferably do this on a second login if you have to do this on a remote system... and keep the one of them open! All you have to do is locate the line "PermitRootLogin yes" and change it to:
PermitRootLogin no
Then restart SSH:
# <span style="text-decoration: underline;">/etc/init.d/sshd restart</span>
on the server, in /etc/exports:
`
/home/somedirectory * 192.168.1.0/24 * (no_root_squash,rw,nohide) `
then after editing /etc/exports, refresh the NFS server with:
`
/sbin/exportfs -a

In ubuntu hardy heron, wine runs into a new security setting that disables 16-bit applications. When you try to install them, you get an error:
preloader: Warning: failed to reserve range 00000000-60000000
winevdm: unable to exec '--app-name': 16-bit support missing

When starting a new program on, for example KUbuntu 8.04, there is a delay of several seconds. This can be caused by SCIM -- which is a multi-language keyboard input protocol -- not loading. Check your system logs. If this is the problem, try as root:
`
apt-get remove scim-qtimm scim-bridge-client-qt4 scim-bridge-client-qt scim-bridge-client-gtk scim-bridge-agent skim scim-modules-socket libskim0 libscim8c2a `
