[vox-tech] (no subject)
Hi Linux folks. Remember me ... the guy with the ubuntu infinite login loop problem? I still have the same problem and I'm not further along in solving it because the guy who was supposed to do this PAYING JOB was a complete flake. Fortunately all I lost was time so. This is what I am looking for: 1. A human being who will step up to the plate and fix my beast. 2. I live near Sac State. Come to my place, do your magic to my satisfation, get paid by an agreed amount, I say Thank You, and that's it. 3. I DO NOT WANT ANY MORE ADVICE ON FIXING IT MYSELF!! I'm trying to avoid taking my beast to a computer store to be worked on by a Windows person. WHO WANTS TO MAKE SOME MONEY? STEP UP!___ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
Re: [vox-tech] (no subject)
I am sorry you are having difficulties, but you don't seem to be proceeding effectively toward resolving them. Most of the people on this mailing list are not local to Sacramento. Those who are may not be comfortable acting as consultants. Yelling (all caps) is not going to change the mailing list demographic. If you need a consultant and no one has offered from this list, perhaps you should google linux consultants to look for people explicitly offering such services. Otherwise, technical advice is what this mailing list is all about, and you should use it as such. --- Jeff Newmiller The . . Go Live... DCN:jdnew...@dcn.davis.ca.us Basics: ##.#. ##.#. Live Go...

Tell you what I will do... I am no computer person but I do have drive and try to help my fellow man. I have compassion and understand your frustrations. I don't want the money. I am a mechanic and although it will take me longer than some of these other lugod members it will be done one way or another. Just let me know.

My time is limited, but I can try to take a stab at it. What version of Ubuntu are you running? On 13 June 2011 12:03, Dr. Denny Scronek pasze...@yahoo.com wrote: Hi Linux folks.

[vox-tech] Can't reach a specific subnet
Last night while I was in the middle of working remotely, I couldn't make any new connections to any of my 3 servers. The rest of the world seems to be able to and it didn't drop my existing connection that I had open in a terminal. The servers in question can be checked by pulling up ice.ucdavis.edu or maps.ice.ucdavis.edu Right now I can't ping, trace, ssh or load websites from any of them from my home connection via a netgear router and comcast internet service. Traceroute seems to make it most of the way, I can get to other servers in the same room on a different subnet. Could this be a firewall somewhere, a bad routing table? Problem is on at least 2 machines on my home network, both Ubuntu. Guess I should try a house-mates windows machine but I have the suspicion it's on the other end. I need at least some testable ideas before I can ask the IT staff and get a reasonable response. Thanks, Alex ___ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
Re: [vox-tech] (no subject)
Dr. Scronek, I suggest using Ubuntu on a stick. Boot with it. Copy your data to an external drive. Run the Install Ubuntu and wipe it clean! Start fresh. Every consulting gig comes not only with potential for profit, but also the risk of liability. We don't really know how bad your system is, so I would say that anyone who agrees on a fixed price may be in for more work that he initially bargained for, especially considering that you are tired of fixing the problem and you may have foobar'ed your system beyond wizard fixes. brian On Mon, Jun 13, 2011 at 12:03:43PM -0700, Dr. Denny Scronek wrote: Hi Linux folks.
