This seems like a great place to start. Once I have this system fully built this will help me to determine where I am attempting to output data to. Once I have a serial port number then I can move...

I understand that my original inquiry could be a bit specific.

Does anyone have any input on outputting relevant system information to a two-line serial display?

That is, in fact, the manual for the device I am working with. Unfortunately, this only has Windows information, which I already have.

Based on the Windows testing, if I enter TYPE>COM1 then press...

The other side of this, which I have figured out, is backing up the files I am modifying in Windows using a batch file, and having said batch file work on multiple systems/user accounts. Here's what...

Thanks for the reply, TheFu.

This isn't exactly a homework assignment. This is for a website I am designing for myself and the church I am working on founding. I will definitely be saving the link...

Just to clarify, this is intended to be for a web page that will have "on this day..." type content, hence the need to update it daily.

Thanks for the reply, Holger_Gehrke.

I am assuming I would put this code in a bash script and then execute the code via cron, much as I could run a batch script from the Windows task scheduler. Is...

Hello all,

I am totally new to bash scripting and cron, so please forgive my lack of knowledge.

I am trying to create a cron job that will (most likely via a bash script) compare file names to...

Thanks for relocating this to the correct place.

After a little more looking around online, I tried this:

I was recently in the process of upgrading to 15.10 when my system lost power. I do about 99% of my work with my linux systems in putty. (I know, upgrading via ssh is never a good idea. It just has...

OK, cleared everything and starting over from scratch using dmraid (mdadm is too confusing with only 1 cup of coffee.)

I believe what I am trying to do can be done without resorting to any of this since I had done it before.

I'll have to look up the BIOS info you asked for. In the meantime, I found this in the...

Yes, I'm using RAID0 (stripe).

I fully expected to have lost all data from the array.

fdisk shows a single volume. Unfortunately, BIOS offers no formatting options. I am trying to use parted...

I'm working on a Kubuntu 14 fileserver system I built. I had (miraculously and by some unknown means) mounted a RAID0 array and it was working fine until one of the drives failed. Thinking I had lost...

I've had pretty good luck with Samba3 in the past, so after trying 4 a few times, I reverted to a version I've had success with. 3 it is!

I'm going with Samba3 on this since that seems to be what I've had the best luck with. I am not using the options in Dolphin for file sharing.

First of all, I'd like to welcome myself back to the community. I took a couple of years off to do something or other.
