<0> on linux
<0> i cant download anything
<0> Download timed out
<0> on alll sites
<0> :(
<1> The first thing you need to do is put all the words on the same line before pressing ENTER!
<0> ?
<0> lol
<1> It's not really all that funny.
<0> man
<0> i cant download anytnig
<0> :s
<1> I have to see six lines from you when I only need to see one.
<0> huh
<2> Hi, under what circumstance would one chose linux over windows?
<3> p3nguin, i get u
<1> GrrrrrrrL: Mostly when you want stability and security.
<4> GrrrrrrrL, style, security
<3> GrrrrrrrL, may be some of them dislike windows
<3> hahaha
<2> yes that's why im asking, i need to buy laptop and I get mixed views to ehat operating system to chose
<2> some says to get windows while others ask for linux, im confused
<2> im not that got on computers, so basically IF linux is more stable, then why doesnt windows or other OS immitate linux?
<2> im sure that microsoft can afford to hire best software engineers to boost windows.. why would linux be better?
<2> *still
<2> when you say linux is more stable, precisely what do you mean?
<2> in dummy terms, dont go on too technical words lol
<5> GrrrrrrrL: you could dual-boot, or run either linux or windows in a virtual machine
<2> Isaac-Lew, what does "dual-boot" mean? remember i am not too good with computer terms
<4> GrrrrrrrL, on linux we can change everything we need such as compile kernel etc etc, windows?
<2> okayy "compile kernel" probably i wouldnt need to perform such task since i dont know what kernel is?
<2> ok.. in what way is windows better than linux?
<5> GrrrrrrrL: dual-boot means to have linux installed on 1 disk partition, windows on another & at boot time decide which one you want to run
<2> ooh that's cool, you mean like have linux on partition C: for example and linux on partituoin D: ?
<2> *windows
<2> but i am going to have LAPTOP it doesnt contain more than one partition :S
<4> GrrrrrrrL, no windows never better then linux
<6> on linux you dont refered partion of drives in the same manner as in windows
<6> or/of
<5> GrrrrrrrL: seeing as how Linux doesn't use drive letters, that's not a good example
<5> and I'm sitting next to a laptop that has XP on one partition & linux on the other
<5> it's called "disk partitioning"
<7> GrrrrrrrL: what the other said is right, however the 'idea' behind what you are saying is also right - windows on a 'C:' partition, linux on another partition on the same drive
<6> C: would be equivalent in linux as /dev/sda1
<5> stderr: only on a scsi (or sata) drive
<6> well linux does not use a single letter to name hd devices or partions
<5> & my C: drive at home sits on /dev/hda2
<2> uhmm ok that's cool
<6> if you want dual-boot, its better if you install windows first then linux
<2> will i be able to have internet explorer on linux?>
<6> lilo and grub, autoconfigure your windows partion
<6> GrrrrrrrL, why would you want that
<6> i dont even use IE in windows
<5> I think someone's trolling
<3> lol
<7> GrrrrrrrL: not 'internet explorer' but there are several other web browsers that are available on linux
<2> because yahoo music (video clip) doesnt work on neither mozella (sp) nor firefox
<6> GrrrrrrrL, have you heard of firefox
<2> well i just mentioned that
<8> hello all
<2> my friend who's a linux user, has firfox is never able to view yahoo music videos
<6> GrrrrrrrL, linux is not the greatest if you plan to use it for gaming or video streaming
<6> GrrrrrrrL, you gotta install the plugin
<8> i'm looking for a modem's driver ( HSP56 Micromodem )
<5> GrrrrrrrL: well then, looks like linux is not for you
<8> if some one have the good link please send it in pvt
<8> thanks
<2> well im not a progrmmer, i just want easiest OS without having to know that much of technical details
<5> & there is possibly a way to get it to work - read what I said about a virtual machine
<6> GrrrrrrrL, then you rather sick with windows
<6> stick
<2> ahh ok
<2> speaking of laptop
<6> AdRiaNnO, is that a dial-up modem?
<2> it'l have processor speed of 1.68 ghz and RAM 512.. total storay 60 Gega bites is that considered as good?
<6> to run linux?
<2> no i mean in general as a laptop
<2> like does it have good storage or good speed?
<6> i guess so
<6> its decent
<2> cool, thanks for your time
<2> just curious, if microsoft has monopoly and is still running buisness, then why doesnt it give windows a feature than linux has?
<8> yes stderr
<8> !ping
<6> AdRiaNnO, if its a winmodem, there are generic drivers, but it takes hard work to get to work under linux
<6> pfghgg
<6> cant type
<8> i know stderr
<8> under Linux ( slack ware 10.2 )
<6> i had a usa electronics once, it worked nicely with kernel 2.4.* and 2.6.*
<8> when i test the modem i have this error msg: ( the modem is Busy )
<9> !nickreg
<6> haha, us robotics, sorry about that
<3> hahaha
<9> stderr ?
<10> anyone have a good way to maintain a set of ssh tunnels from a client to a server? (if they're interrupted, bring them back up automatically; start them on boot (easy), etc)?
<6> AdRiaNnO, what application do you use to configure your modem settings?
<8> kppp
<6> yeah, i used that too
<6> whats your modems model?
<8> Pctel
<8> HSP56
<5> \bab: screen
<10> Isaac-Lew: i'm not sure how screen would help
<8> stderr
<8> i download the driver
<10> these tunnels are for logging
<8> *.zip
<8> when i extract it i have 2 folders
<10> so i have the logging server that's behind a firewall that's going to open tunnels to a set of hosts (some inside and some outside the firewall) so they can log back to it
<5> you'll have to write a script for that, then
<8> 1- src / 2-lib
<10> all right
<10> that's what i figured
<8> in -src i have the folder -module
<8> how i must to if u know ?
<6> AdRiaNnO, www.linmodems.org and install the drivers for winmodems
<10> any idea what a good way to do that would be?
<8> i'm searching for the driver under Linux
<5> actually, try using host-based authentication
<5> & see if someone's already written a script for persistent ssh tunneling
<8> thanks stderr
<8> :)
<11> guyz im in a prob. here i need my Linux BoX to authenticate using Windows server Domain Controller without using the Samba
<11> any ideas !?
<11> ping me
<11> !ping me
<5> MoudyMan: why can't you use samba? that's why it was written
<11> Isaac-Lew: i dont just want to access shared folder or printers i need to do some administration on a domain controller that require that im being authenticated from the Main Domain controller
<11> at login to have an access granted ticket
<11> i tried configuring authconfig using winbind but still no luck...
<5> MoudyMan: did you try rdesktop?
<11> duuh for sure :D
<11> and its working
<11> i want the linux box to join the domain and appear on my server as a computer account to administer it and apply permissions on it
<5> without smba, that's not going to happen
<5> samba*
<11> Isaac-Lew: are u sure !?
<5> MoudyMan: unless thre is another project that provides the same functionality, then I'm sure
<11> i heard about editing in the authconfig and redirecting some libnss_* and i will authenticate for windows server !
<5> did you try www.google.com/linux ?
<11> Isaac-Lew: thnx anyway, and yes i tried google it on linux section but still no luck
<5> MoudyMan: well then, there's no other way
<5> sorry
<11> its ok thnx anyway :D
<5> why couldn't you just use rdesktop to connect to the server to admin it?
<11> well i can rdesktop and admin the server but my boss handeled me many things to do was to admin the server from linux box and to apply permission from windows to the linux box which cant b done except
<11> that the linux machine is on the domain
<1> That should be done using Samba.
<11> p3nguin: how !
<5> p3nguin: apparently, he doesn't want to read the samba documentation
