I've been looking at a lot of info on tethering and think I am close to getting it to work but I keep running into this one error,


pppd: In file /etc/ppp/peers/uscellular: unrecognized option...

If you don't get your answer here I suggest you goto #mplayer@irc.freenode.net, they will know.

I prefer to use AdBlock Plus for firefox, and wget the direct link, open blockable items and the type will be object subrequest.

Ive been able to do this with any website ive been to, not just...

To follow up for anyone else in a similar situation, I have to remaster the iso for whatever distro and set a timeout value in isolinux/isolinux.cfg.

Once booting, it detects the keyboard fine.

How much less memory does the LESS_MEMORY option use?


Also I don't know why you guys are messing around with java unless you just must have a gui, I prefer to just remove it from the dependinces...

I have but didn't work.

Yea ive heard that before but there's nothing like that in the BIOS, this is a really old box maybe that's why, its a legacy system itself.

You could just use dd, like
dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb/backup_image.img
/dev/sda being the servers drive and /dev/sdb being the usb drive.


To restore the server from the backup .img you'd do,...

From the pics posted it looks like there's no Ubuntu installation on /dev/sda, only on /dev/sdb(the external drive).

So you could just delete /dev/sda3 and /dev/sda5 and repartition those and...

When I try to install Ubuntu Server on this old Compaq Presario 5304 it gets to the install menu but the keyboard does not work, I can get into the BIOS but it doesn't work once the CD is loaded.

Is there no access controls on the NAS? such as username or password, those might have to be added.

have you tried using its IP instead of the hostname? If you don't have a dns server or added the...

1. SSH.

2. Yes, except im not sure with VMware i've never tried it without a GUI.

3. I always just setup cron jobs to backup stuff. You can just set it up to backup the VM at certain times.

1. Yes but not all cards can do it. You'll have to look up your cards chipset. I think its a mode you have to put the card into like master mode or something, but the speed if I remember right your...

The process I went through isn't a big deal, its just replacing a folder.

Id rather download two 1.5mb files instead of a 1.8gb image just to get a modem working.

I didn't think it was that hard to understand what he said, but here it is command by command, you will have to change some things such as the user name and version of the Linuxant driver you use,
...

Oops I forgot about this thread, to many projects I guess...

sutupud your method worked great, thanks!

Dell has the drivers for the Conexant HSF Modem for Hardy but not Intrepid yet. Does anyone know if you can use the Hardy version drivers on Intrepid?

I tried compiling "hsfmodem-7.68.00.09oem",...

I would suggest you simplify your smb.conf, get it working then add to it.

You can do it with the file/group permissions, but you'll have to remove "force user =" and "force group = " so not everyone that accesses the share is using that one username and group. Might also...

its just as simple, just take a look at "route --help".

Here's the example from --help, which is pretty clear.
"route ADD 157.0.0.0 MASK 255.0.0.0 157.55.80.1 METRIC 3 IF 2"

route ADD...

If I was going to do this or if you had an IT guy that could, I dont see a problem with using Linux. The prices from what ive seen would be competitive with firewalls you can buy, and other aspects...

I have never had performance issues with samba. I stream everything from my server box with samba(music, movies, backups, etc), and I have never seen speeds anywhere as slow as your describing. There...

I wouldn't say a firewall isn't needed for Ubuntu, it depends on what you have Ubuntu doing. I think the above statement is wrong Ubuntu by default has all ports open, because the default polices...

I think samba-common is required for samba and is installed when samba is.

You must have changed something, samba doesn't change its configuration by itself. Maybe you should post your smb.conf...

Maybe you should try adding "valid user = "your username"".

Also make sure the usernames and passwords are the same on both box's.
