Problems: - I've got only one computer; - I'm on windows/java; I guess that simply unplugging the network cable/deactivating the network card ...

However, the box to put the monster string in consists of only a 1-line text box. I frequently find myself having to copy/paste the PATH string into...

In other words, if fork() or system() returns with an error, what are some things in Linux that I can check to diagnose why that particular error is happening?

I assume this works similarly with Mac and...
