PHP5 won't make on Linux 2.4.18-14

2005-03-15 Thread William Stanard
In our Linux class, we are about to study coding in PHP and Mysql. We're running Linux 2.4.18-14 (Red Hat) and have loaded Apache 2.0.52 (which serves just fine, thank you...) and Mysql 4.0.21 (runs ok on the command line...). We want to be able to run PHP 5.0.2, but we can't get it to make. The

I'm running Red Hat 2.4.18-14smp; I want to enable Mail(SMTP) on the server and already run ssh and httpd. When I go to the Gnome gui System Settings > Security Level Configuration I see that the radio button for Use default firewall rules has been selected. As I am beginning to feel much more comf

In doing a demo before a class (Linux Red-hat 2.4.18-14), I used the uniq command on a file (dup_nums) that consisted of twelve lines, each line containing a number, from one to 9. I repeated the numbers, 6, 8, and 9. The std output showed the expected list of numbers, all duplicates removed. At a

I help students manage a school intranet website on a machine running Red Hat 2.4.18-14 and Apache 2.0.40. How do I keep my student users with accounts on the machine from being able to access, via Putty, /home/bobo/public_html, the directory in which I keep all of the content for the site, includ

I'm running Linux 2.4.18-14smp on a Compaq Proliant, using an Acer 56c monitor, and the X login practically fills the screen. I cannot even get to the OK button in trying to switch the screen resolution. This pretty well immobilizes me as far as using the Mozilla browser or any Xterm apps. Any idea

advice on Apache/Linux

I've been an eavesdropper for about nine months on linux-newbie and have learned a lot from all of you. Where can I subscribe (mailing list) to get the same kind of advice for my school's setup of Apache 2.0 running on Red Hat 2.4.18-14? I'm having a heck of a time configuring our site to my likin

I'm running Red Hat 8.0 (2.4.18-14). After consulting the usual suspects (Learning RH Linux, Running RH Linux, and Apache, the definitive guide) I've hit a blank wall on using vsftp to update and add files to my httpd's document root (/var/www/html, as defined in httpd.config). Unless I am root,

We are about to add our Linux box to our school's intranet (a 10.x.x.x network); our network manager is afraid that, by adding a Linux box, we will be opening ourselves up to mischief from our (my) students. Does anyone know of any security training offerings in the southeastern US that I and my ne

Running Red Hat 8.0 (2.4.18-14) on an old Acer I have keyed ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 to set my box's ip address for my small LAN. What additional command should I use to write that address permanently, so that I do not have to ifconfig each time I restart? I have read and reread O'Reilly's Runnin
