Thanks again to all.

I continue to learn. I'll update this post once I've finished my investigations. I really appreciate all the support!

hi Charles, and thank you for the suggestion (of sorts?). I am not experienced enough to know why anyone would yell at you; sounds reasonable to me.

Maybe I am going about the the wrong way. Should I be working not with cp and mv, but with svn?

Thank you, Bucky Ball. I did indeed read it. I will follow your suggestion and will try to clean up the script a little before implementing it. To be frank, the script is a bit daunting for me, so...

Jonathan,

Thanks! That is a useful looking script. I'll try it. Just to be clear, however, I would also be concerned with date modified. Any ways to tweak the script accordingly?

Zeus, thank you. My hope is to accomplish something slightly different. If I have 600 files in a directory that I wish to overwrite, I don't want to manually validate all of them. Sometimes, too,...

Your understanding of my question was absolutely correct. I apologize for the delayed reply; just after I wrote this I got called away due to an illness in my family. Thank you so much for your...

Hi and thanks to all for responding! Sorry I haven't replied sooner; I had a bit of a family emergency and am just now back behind the computer. Tomorrow I will try some of these solutions. I just...

Hello and thank you for reading this.

I have consulted several resources about the cp command, such as: http://www.computerhope.com/unix/ucp.htm. I still can't find my answer.

I have continued to dig around. I finally found this thread:

I am using Ubuntu 12.04. I accidentally changed the user and group of my root file system the other day. After I set it back, one lingering problem is that the text for the boot options (restart,...

Thanks for your insights, areamike!

In the end, I opted to set non-standard ports for my different websites and to use port forwarding. I think the trouble was with the OpenVPN layer.

I am on Ubuntu 12.04. For some reason, when I am adding key to known_hosts, it is automatically saving to /root/.ssh/known_hosts. I would prefer for it to write to ~/.ssh/known_hosts so that I can...

Thanks again SeijiSensei.

I have been reading the materials at apache.org, but I appreciate that you linked me to this one in particular.

I'll continue trying. For the moment, I have opted to...

Dear SeijiSensei,

Thank you once again for your time and your help.

As you suggested, I edited the httpd.conf file on my ubuntu home server on internal IP 10.8.0.2. Unfortunately, my attempts...

Thank you SeijiSensei.

To clarify - I am not using nginx. I tried out the solution that Sandyd proposed, but the resulting behavior was the same as with Apache. Since I am very new to working...

Thanks, SeijiSensei, for helping me to think through this one.

In regard to the <VirtualHost> containers; are you referring to the client.conf files? They read as follows:

UPDATE:

Here are some further suggestions I received when trying to solve this issue:

Thanks Sandyd! Your quick response is well appreciated.

From what I can gather from your reply and and some basic web browsing, in order to use nginx I would have to run it as an apache...

THE SETUP:
