Hi.

I think you'll find the info you need here: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/349

Hope that helps.

Edit: If you can't use FTP to the server, but you've got SSH running you can use an FTP client like gFTP to upload files over SSH. http://www.brandonhutchinson.com/Using_gFTP_with ...

Hi there.

Try this command in a terminal:

You'll find it under: FTP --> Options | Edit Program: <fill_in_your_editor_here>

Not sure what's the "best" software, but you can find a good howto on setting up an email server here: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual_users ... ebian_etch

The link takes you to the website, it's not a direct download link.

I've never tried this for multiple commands, but I know it works for single commands, like this:

I've never setup a live stream before, and I've only dabbled a little bit with streaming in general, but here are a few websites that might get you on the right track:

In addition to extracting the theme(s) to ~/.icons you might also need to make a 'default' symlink to the cursor theme you want to use inside the ~./icons directory. Example:

The link is not working here either.

I've never used the program before, I just found it with a search, so I don't know how it works, but have you tried taking a look at the config file in ~/.pppstatus/pppstatus.cfg or /var/log/pppstatus.cfg ?

This might not be exactly what you're looking for, but perhaps PPPStatus might be of interest to you.

Nice. I've linked to your guide in the new Conky section of my howto.

Also, I was wondering if you can help me to get that nifty no-frills system monitor that is always showing on the DSL (Damn Small Linux) desktop. I really like it, but I don't know what it's called.

I guess you're referring to Conky . Note that you need to configure Conky to use it's own window ...

I'm having some problems getting access to phpmyadmin from my virtual hosts on my Etch server. On my old Sarge server all I had to do was create a symlink to /usr/share/phpmyadmin in the doc root for the virtual host(s), but doing this on my Etch server just gives me a 500 Internal Server Error ...

OMG I suck at making web pages.

I've had a registered domain for years for my home server, but I always sucked at making pages. HTML, CSS, bleh! don't like it.

I'm trying all of the HTML editors. Eclipse is way over my head, Quanta is hard too. The old Netscape Composer (now Mozilla Composer) is ...

You need to make a appname.desktop file for your program, and place that file in /usr/share/applications/ The files you see in that directory are simply text files making the menu entries, not the executables. Open one of those files in a text editor and you'll see.

Here's a sample file, taken from ...

I already searched this forum and couldn't find any topic on this matter, so i want you guys opinion on that, aside from Deluge but as good as Deluge. The one that i can easily install without resorting to version upgrade. I'm using Etch btw.
Give Freeloader at try. It's pretty simple, but gets ...

[edit] that fixed it. i have had that problem for long time. on ubuntu, fedora, and debian. now i got to get rid of the ugly window somehow. thanks!

You're welcome.

To get rid of the window you can make it pseudo transparent.

# Use pseudo transparency with own_window?
own_window_transparent ...

Which desktop environment or window manager are you using? If you're on GNOME or Xfce. (Possibly KDE too.) You need to have Conky create it's own window.

In the .conkyrc

# Create own window instead of using desktop (required in nautilus)
own_window yes
