Tido`ugh, when installing ubuntu-server, I got to the point where it said 'pick which software to install' giving me the options of a DNS server and a LAMP server.  I selected LAMP and pressed enter.  Only afterwards did I realize it probably wanted me to select them using a different button and then press enter06:53
Tido`I didn't have an option to go back, and sure enough lamp isn't installed06:54
Tido`do I need to reinstall or is there a simple package that will install lamp?06:54

coNPTriumph|TK: you can add users with the 'adduser'  command10:16
Triumph|TKyes i know that much but can't figure out how to set their home directory10:16
coNPif you add a --home <homedir> parameter, then the home directory is set to <homedir>10:16
coNPsorry I start to type slowly :)10:17

Triumph|TKsigh, ok so ive set up a home directory for the user but the user doesn't have any permissions in it11:14
Triumph|TKand i can't find anywhere where to change permissions for write / read11:14
Triumph|TKconp ur my only hope11:17
coNPsorry, a bit later11:18
coNPyou can use "chmod"11:18
coNPor "chown", it is not even owned by the user11:19
Triumph|TKtytytyty11:23
coNP:)11:23
Triumph|TKgod damnit11:45
Triumph|TKlol11:45
Triumph|TKi cannot figure out how to give another user permissions to a directory11:52
Triumph|TKeven with chmod11:52
coNPchown11:53
coNPand chgrp11:53
Triumph|TKbut only 1 user can have ownership to a directory at a time i guess11:56
coNPsure11:56
coNPand a group11:56
Triumph|TKooh so the idea is11:56
Triumph|TKadd a bunch of users toa group11:56
Triumph|TKand give the group ownership11:56
