Those instructions look like they are for "Gutsy Gibbon" (EoL 2009-04-18) and are dated Oct 31, 2007. While that does not automatically make them wrong, things have...changed and I don't think they are the "current Ubuntu Way to Do It".

Having said that, it looks like they might actually work, so I guess YMMV.

This is a great example of why every single page in the web should be required to have a create and a last update data stamp... It matters, especially for technical details like this, yet I see many blogs and pages with no date. That drives me nuts! (OK, more nuts than I already am.)

Later,
JP

"Microsoft Tax" = the additional hardware & yearly fees for the add-on
software required to protect Windows from its own poorly designed and
implemented self, while the overhead incidentally flattens Moore's Law.
