Now all of a sudden the window has hidden itself. The program runs but I can't use it. [01:55] ALASKAMAN, sorry run alias !eggdrop="bash /absolute/path/to/file" [01:59] soi would make it using something like pico [02:03] yeah [02:04] though pico == nano [02:04] symlink [02:06] any text editor would do fine [02:06] a bash script is just a text file with the first line being "#!/bin/bash" [02:09] does it nee3d to done as root [02:09] no [02:10] it will have the same abilties of the user that runs it [02:10] so if you need to run somthing as root you might want to have the script be run by root [02:12] you have the last mimzy in 3 places /www/apache2-default/downloads/thelast mimzy/thelastmimzy.avi [02:12] and [02:12] in /www/apache2-default/downloads/thelast mimzy.avi [02:13] and in /www/thelast mimnzy.avi [02:14] and... in /www/apache/torrentflux/html/downloads/thelastminzy/minzy.avi [02:14] so it would look like some like this #!/bin/bash [02:14] oooo my [02:14] did u put that all in here [02:14] !eggdrop="bash /dowloads/eggdrop1.6.18.tar [02:14] sorry [02:15] no..

[03:25] to remove unneeded files that were installed as part of another installation, you'll need to type: [03:25] sudo apt-get autoremove === [tokin] [n=ryan@dynamic-acs-24-144-225-167.zoominternet.net] has joined #xubuntu [03:26] alright cool [03:27] NKUMike: and if there is a configuration file belonging to a package that you would also like removed enter "sudo dpkg --purge " after you remove it [03:27] NKUMike: synaptic calls that Remove Completely [03:27] oh ok [03:29] and aptitude is nice enough to include that feature for you ;) .... "sudo aptitude purge " will do the same in 1 command as the two commands: "sudo apt-get autoremove " and "sudo dpkg --purge " ... just food for thought ;) [03:29] alright [03:29] Is there like a general scripting language that is should be used? [03:30] bash, python, depends on what you wanna do. [03:30] I'm not sure I think I am moving towards linux so I figured I should learn a scripting language [03:30] NKUMike: there are many that are fully capable .... python, perl, bash, lisp, ruby, etc .... the list goes on [03:31] NKUMike: i recommend python [03:31] Alright cool I have some experience with that [03:31] NKUMike: python comes default on almost all distros these days, even live distros (accept minimalist ones like DamnSmallLinux) [03:32] cool === cellofellow [n=josh@69-71-169-23.mammothnetworks.com] has left #xubuntu [] [03:33] that it is :) [03:34] NKUMike: and there are many gui toolkits that are compatible with python .... and there are many gui programs that many people use daily that are written in python [03:34] NKUMike: you ever heard of exaile?

[03:38] I'll check that out thanks [03:38] vidd: yeah, there are modules in apache, vsftpd, proftpd, etc that allow you to throttle bandwidth [03:38] !vnc [03:38] VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.

[03:41] NKUMike: to access the hard drive you are probably going to want a ftp server or a samba server, i don't think you will need an actual web server [03:42] Can IE handle ftp? [03:42] NKUMike: yes [03:42] !ftp [03:42] FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd [03:42] !ftpd [03:42] FTP servers: !ftpd, !proftpd, !pure-ftpd, !twoftpd, !vsftpd, !MuddleFTPd, !wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: !PureAdmin, !GProftpd (for !GNOME), !KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP [03:42] thanks!

[03:45] Lectus: well it would be HAL, but i can't remember if xubuntu automounts ntfs by default ... i think we leave that module out by default because its a little resource hungry [03:45] Definitely, if I set up an ftp server will there be some way to access the hd's on the other boxes on my lan?

I'm just asking the name of it because I'm installing another distribution on another PC that requires installing each package one by one. So I'd like to add automounting to it. [03:48] Lectus: well it should be hal (or hald), stands for "hardware abstraction layer" ... it does all the nifty "on the fly" hardware detection === Knightlust [n=Dax@ubuntu/member/knightlust] has joined #xubuntu [03:48] maxamillion: So if I set up samba and 'map' the other drives on the Lan all of those will be accessible when connecting to this xubuntu machine using ftp? [03:49] NKUMike: whoa whoa ... you are crossing concept [03:49] concepts* [03:49] what do u mean [03:49] you* [03:49] NKUMike: you either need samba _OR_ and ftp server [03:50] NKUMike: if you setup samba and configure it to share directories, then you can just map that machine as a remote drive on any other machine on the net and you can browse the files that way [03:51] I only want to expose this computer because its good ol secure linux and the rest are windows but I still want access to their filesystems while away, does that make sense? [03:51] NKUMike: on windows, open "my computer" and i think its under "tools" and then "map network drive", that's where you would enter the information about the xubuntu machine that has a samba server running on it [03:51] NKUMike: ohhhhh, you want to map those machines to xubuntu and then browse all that from ftp remotely .... gotchya [03:51] yeah! [03:52] brb [03:52] NKUMike: then you are going to need something like fusesmb or create a static mount point for those samba shares so that your ftp server can share them as though they are local files [03:52] NKUMike: k === Lenny [n=IceChat7@nat.philau.edu] has joined #xubuntu === posingaspopular [n=freddy@adsl-68-72-101-70.dsl.chcgil.ameritech.net] has left #xubuntu ["Konversation] === icicled [n=icicled@adsl-209-30-88-190.dsl.rcsntx.swbell.net] has joined #xubuntu [04:03] Alright back sorry about that, so what is a static mount point?
