$'Linux Server Admin' == 'Best job ever';

Absolutely. It is the coolest job I have ever had in my life.

I get paid the big bucks to have a LAN party all day. Snacks and everything.

First day was not at all what I expected!

Here sir, here is your new iMac, with two 23 inch monitors, a cozy chair, free coffee, and an entire of staff of like-minded people working in the same...

Thanks for the good wishes all. I think I am prepared and ready to go!

I should be leaving my house in about 15 minutes.

I will post back with more info throughout the day!

**Shoves clean...

I am fairly confident a computer will be provided. The more important question on my mind is... Will an OS be provided??:confused:

Thanks for the tips though. I feel quite better.

..Just what I needed to here. Thanks all! I think I am putting a little to much thought into this thing.

And yes I have plenty of coffee, and just put a good towel in my bag.

I will try not to...

I am making the big jump from the telecom/networking world, into the server admin realm! (Finally!) :D

My first day of work is tomorrow!

Could not think of a better place to ask for...

Have you thought of ordering a BeagleBoard? That is my next project. It has quite a bit more under the hood.

You need your server's inside IP address to never change. Type this command


ifconfig

you should see something like this

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0c:f1:ad:e7:b6

Sounds like you need to install the drivers for b43, if you can get the computer on the internet without using wireless, the steps are...

Hello.

I have been having some issues getting FTP configured properly on my server.

I have tried using proftpd and vsftpd, both have been failing and I can not figure out why.

After purging...

@ashleydrees

Good work!

Worked like a charm!

Also good to mention it can be found on line 2245... the squid.conf isn't very small :P

Hey all,

I am trying to find out what media center OS is right for me. I feel like I have two very simple, and common requirements.

1. Netflix
2. Streaming access to my local fileserver


I...

These two commands are life savers!

Went through and reconfigured (with a little more caution this time) My problem was I had used TCP/IP to connect, wheras I should have used the unix socket.

Error:

Installed apache2, mysql-server, and php5

I know phpmyadmin is working. When I go to myserver/phpmyadmin I reach the classic login page

The first thing I would do is set your server up with a static IP address, and instal OpenSSH.

That is usually my 1st two steps.

If you want remote access from away from your LAN you can...

Snakeops,

Is the flashy light your main concern? I mean, we can always disconnect the wires ):P

Is your "wifi" working?

Do you have issues "connecting" to the internet?

If it is a flashy...

Thanks for the tip. I will be sure to take it into consideration, as it happens to be today. Happy holidays!

Anyone else?

Do we have an ubuntu friendly registrar?

If I chose to spend...

So I want a website.

A place for my friends/family to be able to visit me.

In other words I want a dot com.

I will host from home.

Opinions please (I know weird)):P

QWERTY all the way. Style is up to you. But my favorite is a flat style model with a numpad.

Wireless is nice.

All computers have a BIOS that tells the computer which devices to load first.

Usually they go something like this:

CD-Rom
Hard-Drive
Network Boot

Etc..

Yeah Comcast isn't the best...

What speeds are we getting in Pb-ville?

):P
