[luau] KDE 3.1 RC5

2002-12-09 Thread W. Wayne Liauh
One of the killer advantages of Linux, in addition to multi-locale user logins, is its ability to allow an entire distro to be provided in a single CD. After Knoppix, we now have another independent Linux demo CD called Yoper. If anyone is interested in the newest KDE but afraid to mess up

Hi! Thanks for the replies folks. Unfortunately sftp isn't an option. I've managed to set up localhost connection when dreamweaver and server are both the same machine. But would like to develop using PHP/MySQL on a 'live' remote server. Dreamweaver supports the connection internally using a

Yes I agree...but the point that you're missing is that with FTP, DreamWeaver does a check-in/out facilty and auto synchronizationthe facility is spiffy enough that many users don't even want to do something as simple as saving the entire structure to a local disk and then using scp/sftp to

Hmm... I use the Appgate Mindterm SSH client (http://www.sandust.org/ssh/) and it has a great SCP GUI that allows me to browse directories and select multiple files, etc. I don't know exactly how they do it, but it is only using SSH and SCP. It seems it would be easy to add functionality to

Heh, OK, well artsy types like it because it fits the culture they've accustomed themselves to. Most of them don't want to do anything technical or have a desire to learn anything they deem 'technical'. (not all Mac users are like this, but it tends to run heavy that way) Not meant as a slight
