if you wanted to mount windows boxes like SoulSe suggests then check this out http://www.bnro.de/~schmidjo/ LinNeighborhood make life pretty easy when browsing windows shares

this sits on every windows computer I have ever touched http://winscp.vse.cz/eng/ just so I can easily get files off the windows machine and onto linux edit: you need to have ssh server running on your linux machine

has anybody ever played with advance pim? found here http://www.blueprophecy.com/bryan/ I can't get it to compile (on mandrake or gentoo) ... which is a real bummer coz it looks like what I want a PIM with data stored in a DB

read thru this thread it will explain how to extract the game see here http://www.mandrakeusers.org/viewtopic.php...p?p=38138#38138

I second that advice from SoulSe :wink:

I bet it is msec msec (Mandrake Security) changes the permission of things etc, and runs every 24 hours !!!!

yup .. .that simple, just point the dns records to your ip :wink:

don't use virtual hosting. just setup your webserver with your website ... and it will be the default website on your server. Then it doesn't matter what domain name you point at your server, it will always load the default website. if you want different websites for each domain name, then you will need to use virtual hosting.

you need cloop ... get it from here http://www.knopper.net/download/knoppix/ % wget http://www.knopper.net/download/knoppix/cloop_0.66-1.tar.gz % tar xzf cloop_0.66-1.tar.gz % cd cloop-0.66 % vi Makefile // Insert APPSONLY=1 at the top section % make zcode % make extract_compressed_fs % cd .. then /path/to/extract_compressed_fs /path/to/livecd.cloop > /path/to/huge.iso this will make a huge iso image (about 1.4gig) then you can mount the iso mount -o loop /path/to/huge.iso /mnt/tmp cp -R /mnt/tmp/opt/armyopts170 /opt now you're done !!!

I know .. it says run server.bat ... ?@#!? geez ! damn I suck at it though .... back UT to remind myself I can shoot something !!! :-P

well I know matt's script is perl not php. but with php it would look something like this <? $sql = "insert into $table (id, name, text, ..... {other fields here}) value ($id, $name, $text ....{other fields})"; if(mysql_query($sql)) mail("me@me.com","You have a new message","posted by $namenn$text"); or something like that anyway :roll:

yup ... it does run great. any idea how I can start a local (lan) server?

yup .. I think SMP kills the cd boot :-( my dual p3 wouldn't load the cd. but I have the files extracted and I'm playing it just like a normal old game :#: there are instructions on forums.gentoo.org for extracting the files from the cd. or email me ... and I'll send you the extracted game that I have

some time ago (paentium2 or before) ... the boot partition had to be on the first 1024 cyclinders of the drive. I have a celeron 450 like this .... if I put the boot partition on the end of the drive .. I get this li.. and that's it ... nothing more ... and the only way to fix it was to move the boot partition to the begining of the drive

swat it a webmin like admin page for samba urpmi webmin swat (on mandrake) then go to http://localhost:10000/ click on servers->Samba config->swat

geez ramfree ... bully'ing us mods again :-P

if you don't get it before .. IM me next time you see me online (coz that'll mean I'm on my lappie which runs mdk and kde)

I have 5 machines at home 1x Dual p3 with gentoo (never crashed it ever) 1x p4 with gentoo (X crashes but linux never has) 1x g3 with debian (never crashes, but isn't on often) 1x celeron 466 with mandrake 9.0 (never crashed it) 1x celeron 333 with mandrake MNF (never crashed it) 8)

:-P I reckon too :#: alright then ... hopefully us gentoo users won't have any problems anyway :wink: BTW, I fixed my printing. the stable driver (HPIJS) doesn't support my printer (HP 3325) ... but 1.3.x version of HPIJS does !!!! so emerge /usr/portage/net-print/hpijs/hpijs-1.3.1.ebuild fixed it

firstly .. I don't know anything about mirrordir, but I guess it is software raid ??? if so 1. any FS you want ... I prefer reiserfs, but that just coz I like reiser. 2. yes 3. yes. This is ok check this out ... http://wapdomainz.com/raid.php ... it may or may not help if mirrordir is NOT software raid ... then ignore my advice :wink:

hey ... is there a need for a gentoo board ? or is http://forums.gentoo.org good enough for us gentoo users? I was thinking the other day that I might setup a board somewhere else for gentoo users ... WDYT? if its gonna get used then I'll do it ... but if everyone reckons the gentoo forums are good enough then I won't

I can see the printer in cat /proc/bus/usb/... I have a ppd driver from linuxprinting.org I have ghostscript / cups / foomatic / foomatic-rip /hpijs install cupsd does not detect the driver :-( ... and I add it manually, it comes with no errors, but will not print I'm getting lots of errors like this in /var/log/cupsd/error_log d [07/May/2003:16:10:07 +1200] AcceptClient(0x8086340) 0 NumClients = 10 W [07/May/2003:16:10:07 +1200] Possible DoS attack - more than 10 clients connecting from localhost! and this in /var/log/messages May 7 15:22:28 firewall hpijs: unable to set paper size=0, err=4 May 7 15:33:31 firewall hpijs: unable to set DeviceModel=deskjet 3320 May 7 15:33:31 firewall hpijs: unable to set device=-1, err=16 May 7 15:33:31 firewall hpijs: unable to read client data err=-2 May 7 15:37:20 firewall hpijs: unable to set DeviceModel=deskjet 3320 May 7 15:37:20 firewall hpijs: unable to set device=-1, err=16 May 7 15:37:20 firewall hpijs: unable to read client data err=-2

:eek: I can't get printing going yet :-( hp 3325

yes you can exactly what I am doing

check your profile http://www.mandrakeusers.org/profile.php?m...ode=editprofile you may have "view avatars" turned off Motts this is common, and known bug with IE, it doesn't fully support png's specifically transparent png's :-( if you really want to it to work with IE users then don't use png, use gif or jpeg
