<0> <-- da bombdigity
<1> heya Ed
<0> heyo
<1> Kim: still using epic4 m'dear
<2> http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT/
<2> gotta love /google -p1 enter search terms here
<2> ;)
<2> ok, so that result may not have been so useful
<0> I got tired of epic4.. too many terminal windows opened up
<2> yeah i was an epic+light bunny for a while, but irssi suits me better
<3> I have a linux box that keeps booting into KDE. There is no mouse for it so i cant get to a shell. How do I stop it from booting into KDE?
<4> Hitsnorth, what distro
<3> Debian
<5> Hitsnorth: ctrl+alt+F1
<4> set it to a text-based runlevel
<5> then edit telinit 2 or 3...I forget which one...then edit your runlevels in your init files...
<3> THANK YOU! NOw at least I can type!!!
<3> Ok.. So how do I stop it?
<3> telinit?
<5> Errr...not edit telinit...
<5> telinit 2
<5> Try that.
<3> Ok.. Now my next question is..I have sshd running.. It listens,connects but wont allow any users to login..As soon as I put my username or try root it throws me out without asking for a p***word.
<6> Hitsnorth: then you need to configure it properly
<7> you don't login as root from a remote location.
<3> yeah I knwo.. I just said I tried it.. I didnt say it should work..
<3> I think ill just reinstall it.
<7> thats useless.
<7> RTFM and reconfigure it instead.
<6> Hitsnorth: Are you MCSE qualified?
<8> can someone please tell me a http server other than apache
<4> tux
<6> razius: Internet Information Server
<3> No waznz.. MCSD
<3> MCAD
<8> linux waznz
<4> tux
<7> razius: www.freshmeat.net
<7> otherwise you might find more on google.
<6> razius: You didn't specify that it needed to be linux, you just asked for a http server that wasn't apache.
<8> found it
<8> http://www.lighttpd.net/
<8> thats what i was looking for
<4> dsl has it i think
<4> or was it one of those biz card size distros
<0> I took a **** this weekend that was MCSE
<0> was/was a
<9> lol
<0> "MCSE certified" is kind of redundent anyway. since certified is in the name (note the C)
<0> being rendundent with acronyms is the #1 sign of the overuse of acronyms... like "DNS servers"
<6> safemode: erm ... would'nt it've been more enjoyable to hunt down elton john?
<6> safemode: PHP
<1> Ed has wierd hobbies.
<0> recursive acronyms aren't redundent..
<4> safemode, how was the exam?
<0> what exam?
<0> is there another safemode in here?
<10> mreep!
<4> somebody mentioned msce
<1> he never said he took it.
<1> and hello Derek
<10> heya Sean
<0> yea, I'd sooner choke on my own vomit than commit myself to microsoft computing work
<4> i tried the sample exams and they were insanely difficult
<11> gnubee, I took 20-270 (the XP one). It was difficult. I scored 747 on it last november
<4> cappicard, what is the p***ing score?
<11> it's 730 I think
<11> or it may be 700
<11> I don't remember atm
<4> even the win95 exam i tried was difficult LOL
<0> it's gonna be difficult when you dont give a **** about anything microsoft
<4> the reason it is difficult is that all the options are correct but you have to choose the best one
<4> e.g. MS Word could not print. What would you check first?
<0> you ever see the Linux certification tests (the very term linux certification makes me laugh) ? They'd be hard for someone who doesn't know their ****
<0> gnubee: well, if MS work can't print i'd check to see if the printer was on, if so, then we'd have to reboot and try again ..since that's what they always say to do when you call up and ask WTF is going on
<4> haha
<4> the options i remember were
<4> a) check if MS Word printer is configured
<4> b) check if the printer is configured in Windows
<4> c) .... blah blah
<4> so if you are a top-down problem solver you would have a different approach
<4> i would check ms word first because i would ***ume windows is configured correctly
<0> in any case. it's pretty much worthless.. you read a primer book, you get a good score.. you pay microsoft to get a paper and move on... forgetting everything you read in about 3 days
<4> hehe
<0> at least though it's possible to be microsoft certified... "Linux certification" doesn't even make sense.
<6> I've had to work with people who have MCSE.
<4> 22 years of IT experience does not count either :)
<6> The error on the screen was something like "The shutdown function is not defined"
<6> (They were writing code)
<6> But they couldn't read the error + fix it. WTF is with that?
<12> we usually don't allow people back from training to touch anything for a week, until they get it outta their system.
<4> nice ... make sure you link with the correct libs hehehe
<6> Oh, and the other one was "I can't partition the drive into two partitions". Sigh
<4> iirc the ms fdisk only creates 1 primary partition
<13> gnubee: yup
<13> which is quite moronic since the specs say you can have 4 primary ones
<6> gnubee: yes, but installing windows 2000, you can tell it to partition the drives nicely ...
<13> which it always want the the 1st partition
<4> waznz, i /always/ use linux to partition the windows partitions
<4> usually with a rescue or live cd before i start the installation
<6> gnubee: this was a windows server machine install ... no dual booting.
<6> Hrm - I'm yet to have any major problems with install win2kserver - although you're right with installing linux first.
<4> waznz, i mean i partition with linux ... reboot...install windows...install linux
<6> Mind you, this is the same guy who decided to write a backup script by starting with google and typing "find / -type f -mtime 7 -exec rm..." AS ROOT.
<4> install the lesser os first
<13> it's just easier to install winblows first
<4> XyZzY, i put my swap as primary 1
<6> gnubee: I had fun with my IBM - restore CD's only (if you burn them to disk first), had to use parted to get linux on finally.
<6> (Last time I came across an OEM XP install disk, so that was fine)
<4> waznz, i like qtparted :)
<1> an application you run all of once
<1> what a waste
<6> *shrug* ... I quite like console apps ... means I can run it from any where - remotely via ssh/via serial ...
<6> faster too over slow connection.
<4> unlike fdisk, there is no turning back with parted
<6> gnubee: you don't like the adrenalin rush? :D
<4> waznz, i hate "fun" rides
<6> Did you miss the guy yesterday with the production server down, no backups, no mirrored RAID (although the hardware was there) - and this was running for *2* years like that ...
<6> :/
<4> holy **** ... i hope he has a backup job
<4> lol
<4> there goes the difference ... i am /very/ paranoid with backups ... i always have 3 copies of all my data ... in different machines and different locations
<14> haha, nasty

<15> The most used payment system in Norway is down
<15> the central responsible for transactions currently respond: Verify return code: 20 (unable to get local issuer certificate)
<15> can't even use my damn VISA
<16> Anyone know how to set MySQL tables from read-only to write & read?
<1> um, create a user who has priviledges to change the db?
<16> The user does but the table got locked somehow in moving it
<1> in other words, you did something stupid and messed it up
<16> Anyone know how to set locking on tables?
<15> hehe
<16> ?
<16> adv_gallery_permissions Optimize Error: Table 'adv_gallery_permissions' is read only
<15> CMTFAN: please remove yourself
<15> I am in no mood to deal with individuals such as yourself
<1> from the gene pool, preferably
<16> Anyone know?
<16> It's cool you guys don't know
<16> I will let you know when I find the answer to help you guys
<15> CMTFAN: do *NOT* keep messaging people, myself included
<15> how many did you message, just two, or several as well?
