[01:15] like with a firewall? [01:15] yah [01:18] you might try firestarter [01:18] is there anything on edubuntu that manges the ports now? [01:19] well, firestarter is pretty good I think [01:20] have you heard of portmap [01:20] sure [01:20] how do i use it? [01:22] flubber: http://www.linuxmanpages.com/man8/portmap.8.php [01:23] flubber: but I think you might want to check out http://www.fs-security.com/ [01:23] so if i am not using portmap than that means that all of my ports are open right now? [01:23] no [01:23] for Ubuntu anyway, the default install has no ports open [01:23] then what is blocking my ports? [01:24] well, if there isn't anything listening then there's nothing to block [01:24] so there isn't anything on edubuntu that can i use to manage the ports but firestarter? [01:24] Edubuntu probably has a few ports like ssh open on a default install [01:24] oh, I'm sure there are [01:25] yah thats one of the ones open i [01:25] but firestarter is supposed to be the best/easiest to use firewall in Linux [01:26] thanks [01:26] they even have a graphical wizard :-) [01:27] I've never used a firewall in Linux so I'm not much help [01:27] do you know how i could host an irc server on my computer? [01:27] its linux [01:27] there are a few irc servers available [01:27] can you give a good one with a wizzard? [01:27] i can't find any [01:28] I don't think there are ones with wizzards [01:28] ircd is the one I know [01:28] is there one that is really easy to install [01:28] well, installation is easy, configuring might be hard [01:28] i am fareley new to linux but i think i got the hang of it [01:29] well if installing it is easy then ok [01:29] how could it be hard to configure it? [01:29] because it's all from a terminal with config files [01:29] could you give me link? [01:30] for ircd http://www.nic.funet.fi/~irc/server/ [01:31] here's an example configuration file ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/unix/irc/docs/server-docs/example.conf [01:32] i tried this one before do you have one that is hard to install but easy to configure? [01:32] hehe [01:32] I don't know of one [01:33] so thats the only one you know of? [01:33] yep [01:33] ok well i will try it again [01:34] generally IRC servers are big operations [01:34] have you ever installed it before? [01:34] no [01:34] I've never had a need to have my own IRC server [01:34] I think I'd probably set up a jabber server [01:35] what is a jabber server [01:36] jabber is a instant messaging protocol [01:36] are they easy to setup? [01:36] like AIM [01:36] or less hard then irc? [01:36] I think so [01:36] i used to im [01:37] could you help me find one of those? [01:38] nvm [01:38] found one [01:38] thanks for the help [01:38] talk2ulatr] [01:38] i am going to set it up now [01:38] flubber: here's one http://www.subvs.co.uk/installing_wildfire_jabber_server [01:39] laserjock: http://linuxgazette.net/112/tomar.html [01:40] that one looks like it might be a bit more complicated [01:40] I'm looking for instructions that are for Ubuntu specifically [01:40] is seems more fun though and it doesn;t use mysql [01:41] well i will be right back have to eat dinner [01:41] I've got to run too === LaserJock is now known as Laser_away === flubber [n=Administ@cpe-075-181-033-117.carolina.res.rr.com] has left #edubuntu [] === blitzchecker__ [n=blitzche@i5387C27B.versanet.de] has joined #edubuntu === bddebian [n=bdefrees@c-71-224-172-103.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] has joined #edubuntu === jack_wyt [n=jack@221.216.191.211] has joined #edubuntu === jack_wyt [n=jack@61.149.0.23] has joined #edubuntu === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@125.212.12.5] has joined #edubuntu === greg_g [n=greg@c-75-72-154-21.hsd1.mn.comcast.net] has joined #edubuntu === ogra [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #edubuntu === AythroN [n=AythroN@p54b1ef90.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #edubuntu === AythroN [n=AythroN@p54b1ef90.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #edubuntu [] === bonbonthejon [n=jon@cpe-69-133-37-32.cinci.res.rr.com] has joined #edubuntu === HedgeMage [n=HedgeMag@ubuntu/member/hedgemage] has joined #edubuntu === jbrefort [n=jean@lns-bzn-32-82-254-9-124.adsl.proxad.net] has joined #edubuntu === gnomefre1k [n=gnomefre@adsl-221-54-53.rmo.bellsouth.net] has joined #edubuntu === highvoltage [n=highvolt@196.1.61.16] has joined #edubuntu === cbx33 [n=pete@ubuntu/member/cbx33] has joined #edubuntu === sc0tt_ [n=sc0tt@cpc1-stok5-0-0-cust150.bagu.cable.ntl.com] has joined #edubuntu === mpytasz [n=dduck@81.219.176.52] has joined #edubuntu === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #edubuntu === sc0tt [n=sc0tt@cpc1-stok5-0-0-cust150.bagu.cable.ntl.com] has joined #edubuntu === gnomefre1k is now known as gnomefreak === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu === gnomefreak [n=gnomefre@ubuntu/member/gnomefreak] has joined #edubuntu === blitzchecker__ is now known as blitzchecker____ === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #edubuntu === blitzchecker____ is now known as blitzchecker_ === bdoin [n=coudoin@home.gcompris.net] has joined #edubuntu === blitzchecker_ [n=blitzche@i5387C27B.versanet.de] has joined #edubuntu === johansalim [n=guest@ip84-223.cbn.net.id] has joined #edubuntu === sc0tt_ [n=sc0tt@cpc1-stok5-0-0-cust150.bagu.cable.ntl.com] has joined #edubuntu === jbrefort [n=jean@lns-bzn-32-82-254-9-124.adsl.proxad.net] has joined #edubuntu === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/Amaranth] has joined #edubuntu === skirk [n=skirk@ip-103-163.sn2.eutelia.it] has joined #edubuntu === jack_wyt [n=jack@61.149.0.23] has joined #edubuntu === rpereira [n=rpereira@ubuntu/member/rpereira] has joined #edubuntu === jack_wyt [n=jack@61.149.0.23] has joined #edubuntu === caravena [n=caravena@105-152-223-201.adsl.terra.cl] has joined #edubuntu === cbx33 [n=pete@ubuntu/member/cbx33] has joined #edubuntu === skirk [n=skirk@ip-103-163.sn2.eutelia.it] has joined #edubuntu === pauljw [n=paul@pool150.dial1-clec.newalb.win.net] has joined #edubuntu === flubber [n=Administ@cpe-075-181-033-117.carolina.res.rr.com] has joined #edubuntu [04:31] how do you delete a directory with files in it?
