Re: [ubuntu-uk] Joggler as a File server
Hi Cornelius! To confirm, do you know if smbd is running or not on your joggler? You can test this by using the commands: sudo /etc/init.d/smbd stop sudo /etc/init.d/smbd start The first one will fail if you don't have it running in the first place. If the second command fails, there will likely be an issue with you samba configuration... Best, K.

However this is not my concern at this stage, WHAT I am looking for this time is to know how to setup a File server on it, 1. I have a powered external USB drive attached 2. I have tried making use of GSamba that comes installed on the Joggler image 3. Installed SWAT but could not point my Firefox to it, did not startup 4. Tried the Samba config tool also. 5. I tried to hit (from an ubuntu PC) the IP address of the joggler and can ping it but connecting to a Windows Share returned smb://. could not be found/connect Any ideads -- _ Cornelius Mostert Senior IT Specialist United Kingdom: 075 2233 4818 International: 0044 75 2233 4818 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Viral Videos - Who's actually interested?....Just another thought....
As odd as it may be, i've already had troubles with attempted malicious activity on machines that I administer with Ubuntu. Luckily, the user management and kernel-mode support of linux itself helps a _lot_ But at the same time, I think that now is the time to be creating such counter measures...

I would have thought that when those who like to make these viruses, when they notice Ubuntu is getting more and more used, they might target Ubuntu. It wouldnt be difficult, but my guess would be it would be far more difficult getting a virus guard sorted for Ubuntu. How would that work out?

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Add a hard drive
It will be detected, you will simply need to map it to a location using fstab (or mount it to a location manually using mount). You will likely also have to partition the drive, you can use a command line tool like cfdisk or a gui based tool like gparted to do this for you... 2010/1/7 javadayaz javada...@gmail.com Quick question guys...If i install a hard drive on to my Ubuntu pc will it be detected and useable or will i need to reinstall Ubuntu? -- Regards Javad -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
Re: [ubuntu-uk] Virtual private server recomendations
I would recomend tagadab vps hosting. I've been using several of their smaller packages for almost a year now and haven't had the slightest of trouble. Their support staff over the phone are also very helpfull. http://www.tagadab.com/virtual-private-servers It looks like their VS1000 package would suit you very nicely, it comes in at £39.99, but it might be an idea to try out one of their smaller packages first to see if they suit. - Kenny. 2009/11/26 dan attwood danattw...@googlemail.com I'm starting to look at the possibility of gettting a hosted virtual private server for a project I'm working on. I've been doing the usual googling and the only thing I can say for sure is that it's a mine field of options, from expensive to cheap and back again. Ideally the server will have around 1gig of ram, 30 gig of disk space, a nice fat pipe the conect it to the web, a static IP and run Linux (I'm prefer Ubuntu but open to others) I wondered if the leaner'd members of this list might have any suggestions?

Re: [ubuntu-uk] insurance for meetings
Hmm, that is quite an interesting question, something that i've never really considered in relation to a LUG... I'm guessing that if it's just a normal LUG then the venue might be able to help with health and safety considerations. For anything more like an install day, a disclaimer might help (although, ensuring that it is legally binding is an entirely different matter). 2009/10/5 Paul Sutton zl...@zleap.net -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 What are peoples experience with any requirements for personal liability insurance for things like lug events, or install days.
