If im not wrong, you can configure VNC and then save its configuration settings as default.. so you wont repeat setting up the VNCserver.... running it as a service makes the service available upon booting the box, if your dont need to run the service at any time. you can just start it manually via ssh. Are you trying to administer that box thru VNC?, well you can also start MCC of your remote box thru ssh...

thanks for that dev... all those times that I struggle installing the flash plugin again and again, and it wont work.... that was my fault, coz I forgot to install the kdebase-nsplugins....and now it works on my konque. I am now able to view flash movies.. but still, I have a problem which I need help... when I tried my konque on playing flash games, the keyboard wont work for any function keys that I assigned.... any suggestions what to do?

tia

:P

at mcc - security - firewall... then click advance, you can specify other ports that you want to be open there (i think, if they have'nt change it, since i still using 10.1 and you are reffering to LE'05)

Had anyone here tried and enabled flash plugin on Konqueror? and made it able to function succesfully? Help me how to do it... nevermind mozilla+firefox, flash plugin works fine on it..

check if your Mysql Server already started. or #/etc/init.d/mysqld restart to make sure

try this thread

is your firewall enabled already? can you boot to cli? if yes, try to manually remove other services that runs, using chkconfig util... also disable your firewall if enabled already..

yes of course, you can enable your firewall on different interface, I just cant guide you via MCC since I dont use shorewall anymore, but before, when I still used shorewall, I just manually edit the shorewall scripts, I think it's still located at /etc/shorewall/ and the file rules ( correct me if i'm wrong), you can define what ports you should allow on both interface aliases. There's a thread here that deals with firewall tips, it might help..

thanks for the reply guys...

which do you prefer?, especially for those who have experience already on building email servers.

there are several options out there, since we have a lot of imap servers to choose.. but my personal options are CYRUS-IMAP , UW-IMAP, and Courier-Imap... but I still need your input..

thanks in advance

you can administer it via ssh, thru cli or you can even run MCC thru ssh if you installed the packages that it needed..

in your mandrake machine, try to check if telnet-server is running, at console, try to $netstat -an | grep tcp , that should display listening port, if no port 23, then make sure your system start the telnet daemon.

at console, you can use, #chkconfig or #drakxservices to start telnet... #chkconfig --list to list all service s

as with the libncurses, try to install also the libncurses5-devel

as root, open MCC - SYStems - Backup

try to search at sourceforge.net, keyword, webportal, website, cms, or you can try mambo, wordpress, plone... though you wont start it from scratch, if you really have a skills on php,mysql, then try to help those I mentioned, by building your own plugins, themes, or whatever that can improve those. :P

sorry, i should have completed that, I've just learned that also here..IMO - in my opinion :D

.. though I did'nt use shorewall or guardog but that' s how I understand it, your system won't send you an email notification if that system does not have an MTA running on it

i cant give you details on NFS since i dont use it, and, since your network consist of Windows and Linux, IMO, its better to just use samba

B )) when one checks tthe box and puts a username or email addy WHERE does this info get sent to - I've yet to see any notification. Anyone knowledgeable on this?

might be that an MTA should also be running on that linuxbox, like postfix... some disable it as a service, if you do, you wont be able to receive notification from your box to any of your email addy you put on that box

#chmod o-x /bin/dmesg

that will remove the x or execute capabitlity of other users, and only root and root group can run it

shaner, make sure you started cups service when trying to share it over network, well, assuming that you'd defined it already in your smb.conf

  I ticked the box in the properties part of the script (in Konqueror) to enable the file to be executable, and the permissions are set correctly I think...  I need to be root to run the script in a terminal, so maybe this could be the problem?  Any help would be wildly appreciated, I love linux for the way it can be configured to do what I want, but I lack the knowledge to do this stuff straight up. 

 

once again, thanks

in order for you to run the script as a regular user, try to ,as root#chmod a+x wireless.sh ....a = all, which means that all user can x= execute that script, but if the script contains shell commands that only root have access, though you can run the script but it will fail, well, as per pmpatrick, that should work

Can you have full linux->linux filesystem control over Samba though?  (i.e. setting/altering remote files' permissions, creating symlinks and whatnot?)

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

the answer really is NO, but since ERD mentioned the SHARING of files between that mixed OS, we all know that SAMBA would do that.(SHARING). well, ERD if you really want to administer your other linuxbox from your, shall I say main LinuxBox, its better to enable sshd or the ssh-server on that other linux box... forget nfs. Try to check if ssh server has been installed already #rpm -qa | grep ssh , it should, if installed, show you openssh-server and openssh-clients, if installed, then you should now ready to access your other linux box thru shh.. how? using your konqueror browser at the location; type sftp://<ip-of-ur-other-linux-box> enter the username and password of your account on that other linux box... you cant use root, if I'm not wrong, by default, root is not alllowed to login thru ssh, but hey, your just trying to access and share files, right? Now, if you'd like to adminster your files, install additional software, make an update, to that other linuxbox from your main linux box, then use the konsole and type $ssh user@<ip-of-your-other-linuxbox> then enter password, and if you want to be root to have access on everything, just type at prompt$su then enter the root password... there, hope its clear and i'm not instead of helping, confuses you. so just forget nfs

have you tried mozilla itself? i'm using it for browsing and email client.. opera, yeah, it has annoying ads
