Re: [Astlinux-users] AstLinux Documentation Wiki

2010-01-04 Thread Tom Chadwin
Apologies to all, and to Darrick in particular, for having set this  
particular ball rolling. As he says, this originated off-list, and I  
am the one who mistakenly replied on-list. Please now ignore, and  
thanks for the suggestions.

Apologies again

Tom

PS  Yes, I also got the hostname and IP address the wrong way round,  
so thanks

Can we please kill this thread?  It wasn't supposed to be on the mailing 
list anyway.  We're working on updating the documentation.  When we have 
the framework a little further along, we can use some additional people 
to help, but right now I think we're OK.  This was intended only for 
that handful of people and not some permanent hack.

Thanks,

Tom,

Hosts works fine here on XP Pro SP3 at 
c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.  However, I had to invert the 
order of the IP address and domain from that shown in Darrick's example.


The entire file looks like this:

   # Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
   #
   # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
   #
   # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
   # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
   # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
   # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
   # space.
   #
   # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
   # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
   #
   # For example:
   #
   #  102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com  # source server
   #   38.25.63.10 x.acme.com  # x client host

I'm still waiting for Kristian to get things set with the
domain name, but if you edit your 'hosts' file on your local
computer, you can view the wiki as I have it set up so far.

doc.astlinux.org  216.165.179.57

I will be turning off public registration at some point in
the not so distant future.  Until that time, feel free to
register by going to:

http://doc.astlinux.org/start?do=register

Then send me an email so I know to move you into the
appropriate group.

I will be updating the theme and possibly adding some plugins
as needed.
   The syntax is pretty straight forward, but if you have
questions about it, look on the http://dokuwiki.org site.

It's the same format in linux. I did this with my /etc/hosts file and it
came up fine as well. No need to reboot, should take effect instantly.

In the Windows host file you first need the IP "TAB" URL.
