<0> bleh.. it's 3F/-16C here
<1> If I have a windows box and want to install vmware so to install linux, can I do this without loosing the data on the windows box?
<2> of course, vmware is a user application in windows, it resides ontop of the os
<1> phaeton: so vmware installs like a standard app? once installed, then I can set it up to install linux?
<3> yes
<1> I guess a better question, is there any formatting involved?
<2> nope
<3> no
<1> what about the file system format? ntfs vs ext3, etc. does this matter with it?
<0> ZBandit: vmware uses a file in the host os for the filesystem the guest os sees
<1> ah
<0> this next track was made just for you, actually. so... unplug all the phones, put down the paperwork, light up, have a seat, do whatever you need to do. have a listen. have a laugh.
<1> so if the host is a linux based system, then the file that is created is within that host OS to run the 2nd os.
<1> does it matter which OS is the host system?
<4> ZBandit no
<4> But if you want IIS to work properly in windows, you will need a SERVER version
<4> like Server 2000
<4> or Server 2003
<0> ZBandit: the vmware website explains all this. vmware is just a user app (runs under windows, osx, linux, etc). you create a guest os profile, which includes hardware **** and the fileysstem(s). filesystems appear to the host os as a single file. they appear to the guest os as a filesystem. (there are ways to change this but apparently thats the setup you want)
<1> sounds like qemu... is that about the same thing?
<0> similar, but not really.
<4> not really
<1> how is the stability of it?
<4> ZBandit GREAT
<0> ZBandit: vmware is a commercial product. its quite stable
<5> ZBandit GREAT... ZBEAT
<4> ZBandit most major corps use it...
<0> FenixNR: that's a pretty sweeping generalization..
<4> Yes, but most major corps use it
<1> one last question.workstation vs server.... what's the difference?
<4> ZBandit no GUI
<0> FenixNR: eh? i have vmware workstation on my laptop. it has a gui
<4> oh, nm
<4> I thought he was talking about linux versions
<4> lol
<1> what happens if the host OS dies? do you loose both?
<4> yes
<4> Unless you can get the .vsx file off it
<1> so it would be better to have linux as the host.
<4> not really
<4> either could be
<5> Not really... neally.
<4> I use windows, have an actual server
<4> and use vmware on my windows box
<4> just for craps and giggles
<0> i use it on my laptop because linux has poor support for some of my hardware. plus it's a dual core laptop, so there's no real speed loss since each os gets a core
<1> but with all the viruses and spyware crap on the windows boxes, it seems that the windows host would have more of a chance of dying.
<4> ZBandit not if you properly run Anti Virus and so forth
<0> ZBandit: a well configured and maintained windows machine shouldn't have that problem. if its a server, no one should be browsing the web or emailing on it, which are the primary attack vectors for that sort of thing
<1> thanks for all the info. I hate getting into something I've never done, but this certainly sounds like something I need to do.
<0> woot
<0> finally making some progress on this parser i think
<5> I and the squirrel are friends.
<0> stfu howto
<6> Hi everybody. How can i add a user to a group?
<6> ... or a group to a user or whatever?
<7> d0ugie: man usermod
<8> hey
<8> i'm installing fedora
<8> but i keep getting this error message
<8> when i try to get the setup program to recognize my raid devices
<8> here's a screenshot
<8> http://tinyurl.com/dnm7v
<8> what should i do?
<8> hello?
<8> anyone up?
<9> O_o
<7> sicko
<9> must have missed something
<7> not really
<10> has anyone here setup an iscsi storage box before?
<9> survey says!
<9> 0
<11> is normal the ircd opening UDP/1024 port ?
<11> $ lsof | grep 1024
<11> ircd 671 ircd 0u IPv4 1040 UDP *:1024
<12> ircd?
<12> no. it would be tcp 6667
<9> it coukld beusing udp for dns
<12> wouldn't that be port 53?
<9> its not in state LISTEN
<13> why doesnt "mplayer song.mp3|grep Playing > file-telling-me-what-song-is-playing" work?
<14> anyone ever installed e-accelerator?
<15> Hi... anyone here who sould help me a bit with opensuse!?
<5> Pika...CHUUUU!!! *ZZZAAP*. narf!
<16> can someone tell me how i can find where my autoconf is installed?
<5> Perhaps.
<17> anyone know why port forwarding port 53 to an ssh port would suddenly cause my internet to drop a lot?
<5> No, never, not me.
<18> I want to do this: chmod -r 664 * However, I want all directories to have 775. Is there a way to do this without changing all the directories by hand?
<5> coffee
<18> I mean, I want all the ordinary files to have 664 as their permissions, and all the directories to have 775.
<19> Is this a valid IPv6 address? 0:AA:0
<20> is there a way to make wget follow those awful php download links?
<7> cant find it in the manual?
<21> Nameeater with difficulty
<21> Nameeater best thing to do, is to produce a php script that gets the raw url, then use wget with html
<20> would that work with someone elses php script producing the links?
<21> yup, unless they have a referal check
<21> which u would need to trick
<22> thx
<23> I just installed Debian (console only) and it seems to have defaulted to use DHCP although I would want to use a static IP configuration. How do I fix that ?
<24> PerpIexer: check the /etc/network/interfaces file
<24> you should also be able to man interfaces
<24> to read more on configuring that file
<24> pretty quiet
<25> yeah
<25> they made a mistake
<25> and paid my salary to my ex wife's bank account
<25> i got nothing :s
<24> Trengo: raw deal
<24> anyone know a good reference to setup htaccess with pam?
<26> Anyone know a nice texteditor/IDE with syntax highlightning and more?

<9> (01.31.07 11:11) [coresupport] ### Connection to linuxgeneration.org established
<9> (01.31.07 11:11) [coresupport] ERROR Closing Link: ardya[c-68-47-208-78.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] (User has been banned from
<9> CoreSupport ([awol] Temporary cleanout. Come back when ready...))
<9> tell me you guys arent using some setting that doesnt permit connections during a split
<27> not that I'm aware of :S
<27> no, because others have reconnected
<9> well awol mentioned to me before that the network was all kinds of broked, especially when a server goes down
<9> might I recommend a move to ratbox *snicker*
<27> yeah, it needs some attention
<27> problem is, my care factor has been getting lower
<9> ahh the stic factor
<27> yeah, but not as bad ;)
<9> yet

<27> It
<27> It's not something I can see dropping, but it's not my main concentration
<4> graz, I can connect. wonder why you can't
<9> I know the feeling though, a bunch of us had a small net going, we tried linking with various other nets, we'd delink cuz we didnt like em....eventually the guys dropped off, I kept mine up for PPR, this all started about 4-5 years ago
