<0> mighty quiet in here today
<0> LadyByte: shut up
<1> Yes, master.
<2> Hello, How do I mount a folder on a remote linux box to let's say /mnt/remote_folder ? I tried mount -a remote_box:/tmp/remote_folder /mnt/remote_folder and got nothing
<3> Bluntman01, and what do you use to do that? fuse over ssh?
<2> I want to cron that ( do a backup every night )
<2> what is fuse ?
<3> you cant just mount something on another box. linux is not magic toy
<3> how do establish the connection between the two computers?
<2> ahaha, yeah I guessed . However what tool could I use to transfer files automatically every night . ssh requires a p***word to be entered manually on the console as far as I know
<2> ok, I'm looking at fuse, it looks interesting ... let me research more
<3> http://librenix.com/?inode=4603 <-- that is a solution for remote backup with ssh+tar+cron
<2> great !!!
<2> Thanks
<3> np
<2> yeap that's exactly what I needed, thanks again
<3> :)

<5> How do you save after you edit with VI ?
<6> evening all
<6> .o
<6> go canada
<7> hey platy
<8> what should I use as a pop3/smtp server?
<9> they don't usually come together
<9> i recommend dovecot + postifx
<8> acha
<8> dovecot
<8> and a hint on using multiple domains?
<9> you could try using webmin and installing the virtualmin module
<8> okay
<9> that automates all the multidomain stuff
<10> i use sendmail and courier
<9> http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=1124&nbn=13
<11> f webmin.
<11> www.postfixwiki.org
<11> high5.net also has a wonderful howto.
<0> I use mailscanner with sendmail, and dovecot
<9> this page says that mysql5 is in the testing repo
<9> i enabled it and tried to update no joy..
<7> guys, anyone have any opinion on having a java applet for website uploads?
<10> why would you use a java applet?
<9> a nice progress meter?
<9> heh
<7> because plain html/forms/input uploading only allows one file at a time, no multiple selections
<0> my opinion of java applets is no :)
<10> Redb3ard you can do multiple files
<10> you just have to write the perl/php to do it
<7> reddragon, how, and is it cross-browser-compatible
<0> yup, perl/php would be my choice
<10> example, gallery is php and will allow you to upload up to 10 files at a time
<7> someone show me an example please... the only plain html examples i can find have 1 upload per <input type="file">
<10> i just gave you one Redb3ard
<7> if i google for "gallery php" its going to return a million pages
<10> simple you put 10 input lines for type=file and write the software to work its way thru all of them
<7> is that an api, a website, what?
<10> its photo album software for websites
<7> so they have to select 1 file at a time
<10> yes
<7> well, thats something im trying to avoid
<7> or improve, i guess i should say
<10> if your looking to do wild card uploads stick to ftp
<7> ftp introduces a whole nother set of problems
<10> why do you need wild card mutliple inputs?
<7> http://jupload.biz was something i stumbled across, its cheap (free even), and not too obnoxious
<7> but even i get annoyed at java applets
<12> java applets are like small leeches that ****s the cpu
<7> like large leeches, alien ones with razor jaws
<7> redragon, its the nature of the website, that i want people to be able to upload a bunch of files at once
<12> hehe i was referring to the small ones (:
<12> Redb3ard: through web?
<7> preferably
<12> ahh.. that'll be difficult hehe, but i think there are web frontend for ftp servers though
<7> the alternative is one of the following: try to integrate ftp access with my php/postgres website, let them upload zip files, let them email a bunch of files, or let them upload 1 file at a time
<7> the strange thing is, the http protocol doesnt seem to have a problem with more than 1 file at once
<7> i actually considered a firefox extension to allow it, but that would limit it to firefox only
<12> hehehe thus its a stateless protocol
<7> yeh, so why in the hell dont browsers offer the ability to select more than 1 file at a time?
<12> Redb3ard: browsers aren't design to do uploading that is
<10> hmm
<10> heat problems this isnt good
<7> yeh, i know netbeui
<7> whether they should be or not, thats arguable, but im painfully aware of the fact that theyre not designed for it
<13> I thought file fields could only take 1 file, so choosing more than one wouldn't do any good
<7> zrunn, correct
<7> but the backend, the POST method, has no problem with recieving more than one file
<7> if the browser would let you send more than one, apache would have no trouble understanding multiple files
<13> but the sites are only supposed to expect 1 file per field so the normal method would be to add more file fields
<7> thats not the way i understand it
<7> if there are limits at all, its only in the size of the POST variables and stuff, limiting file size, not number of files
<12> Redragon^: do you know where could i find the IP geographical designations?
<7> that java applet uses php on the backend to recieve the files
<7> netbeui, www.maxmind.com
<7> their basic database is free
<10> Redb3ard the problem with wild card transfer is you need to be able to read the directory on the sending machine, you can't do that with standard http
<10> yea use maxmind ip database
<13> sure, but browsers are only supposed to allow 1 file per field. If you make it send more, it will be non standard
<7> redragon, the file input is already doing that, when you click on the button and the file dialog pops up
<10> but remember that its not accurate 100% of the time because of how major isps (like aol and comcast) route things
<7> zrunn, thats the point... the standards have nothing against it, its not a standards thing, that i can tell
<10> Redb3ard no thats the browser/os reading it, not the server based php or cgi
<7> ugh
<13> according to the standard, browsers are only supposed to allow one file per field
<12> nah i meant the listing of geographical ip distribution
<10> because of security restrictions in a browser it can't directly do things like read your drive
<7> redragon, im not saying wildcards so much anyway, more like control+click selecting more than one
<13> check the RFC written by that Xerox guy.. it's in there
<10> its the nature of the beast :)
<7> and even then, if it were wildcards, it would be the browser interpreting the wildcards, and sending each that match, in turn
<10> nah you can't select more than one that way
<7> ugh
<7> i know that
<7> but theres no good reason for that
<14> Redragon^: buy a temp controlled fan.. they're the best imo
<10> gonna replace that crappy aluminum with a copper sink, i hate aluminum
<10> hiya gaia
<15> hiyas red
<16> hey all
<16> my firefox just stopped working. it won't go to any webpage. I started over but still it will not. i killed all firefox and firefox-bin running but when I start up I still can't get to any page at all
<16> I am able to ping web sites but that is all
<17> so internet is working, but firefox no?
<16> correct
<17> what distro?
<1> A distro is, perhaps, one of the following: CentOS, Debian, Gentoo, LFS, Mandrake, Red Hat/Fedora, Slackware and SuSE (in alphabetical order), but can be something else too. a "Distribution"
<16> fc3
<17> what firefox version?
<17> BlkPoohba: and does firefox respond to other commands(clicking Help and About Mozilla Firefox) ?
<16> synaptic: about and help page came up fine
<17> are you using a proxy maybe ?
<16> synaptic: i have never before.
<16> i didn't make any changes
<16> the only thing I have been doing is mesing with icecast
<16> it was working earlier today but then suddenly stopped
<17> and what does the status bar say when you try to acces a page?
<6> evening Gaia^
<15> watcha themaxxz
<16> it says its trying
<16> right now it says "connecting to spreadfire.com ...
<17> maybe you blocked the port 80 outgoing ?
<17> via iptables?
<16> i didn't enable them
<16> i disabled it actually
<17> when ?
<16> when i installed last year
<17> ok, maybe it got enabled today.
