[02:15] <PDSmedia> is there anyone here that is a member of Quelab?
[02:19] <PDSmedia> I guess no one is monitoring.
[02:20] <signalnine> I am
[02:34] <PDSmedia> signalnine: you are a member or you are monitoring?
[02:38] <signalnine> I'm a member
[02:38] <signalnine> founder/director actually
[02:38] <PDSmedia> is this Gabe?
[02:39] <signalnine> yes.
[02:40] <PDSmedia> I sent Apache questions.  No reply so I guess you need member $ now?
[02:40] <PDSmedia> this is Mark
[02:41] <signalnine> I sent a reply a few minutes ago
[02:41] <signalnine> Been very busy the past few days
[02:41] <signalnine> sorry about the slow response
[02:42] <signalnine> basically, you should be using /var/www as the document root
[02:42] <signalnine> log in as root to make sure you have permissions to put stuff there
[02:44] <PDSmedia> I see that.  why does my hosting company use something like /home/[user name]/public_html ?
[02:45] <PDSmedia> If there is an alternate person for my questions, I don't mind contacting them if your too busy
[02:47] <signalnine> because they are doing virtual hosting
[02:48] <signalnine> it's unnecessary for your needs
[02:48] <signalnine> unless you want to host a bunch of different websites with different domains
[02:48] <PDSmedia> if the html doc base directory is in the root, then how can an FTP user access or transfer files from another machine?
[02:50] <PDSmedia> I didn't think directories other than those below a user name were accessible
[02:50] <signalnine> log in as root
[02:51] <signalnine> or change permissions so you can write it as another user
[02:51] <PDSmedia> that works on the server console but I'm talking about when you FTP to that directory from another machine
[02:52] <signalnine> same thing, permissions are the same
[02:52] <PDSmedia> change permissions through the server console on var/www?
[02:52] <signalnine> yeah
[02:52] <PDSmedia> I thought user permission and root permission were different
[02:53] <PDSmedia> I didn't think root could be accessed through FTP but that may only be true because I'm doing this locally
[02:53] <signalnine> it should be
[02:54] <PDSmedia> go it. I must not be on the mailing list cuz I'm not getting event notifications.  who do I contact to find out?
[02:55] <signalnine> what's your email?
[02:55] <PDSmedia> research@lawlearners.org
[02:55] <signalnine> the lawlearners.org one?
[02:55] <PDSmedia> yes
[02:56] <signalnine> I'll add you if you're not on it yet
[02:56] <signalnine> emails don't go out very often
[02:56] <signalnine> couple times a month or so
[02:56] <PDSmedia> does a notice go out about weekly meetings like on Sunday?
[02:56] <PDSmedia> and hacknights?
[02:56] <signalnine> no
[02:56] <signalnine> just special events
[02:57] <PDSmedia> oh, then I'm probably on the list already
[02:57] <signalnine> ok
[02:59] <PDSmedia> and we were discussing Drupal resources... didn't you recommend duke city fix?
[03:00] <signalnine> yeah
[03:00] <PDSmedia> ok. great.  I'll see what I can find on their site. was there a hacknight tonight?
[03:01] <signalnine> No
[03:01] <signalnine> Sundays and Tuesdays
[03:03] <PDSmedia> if I go to those regularly, I'd like to find someone near by to commute with.  It's 9 miles for me and I don't have a super economy vehicle
[03:03] <signalnine> where do you live?
[03:04] <PDSmedia> near Eubank and Spain
[03:11] <PDSmedia> u still there?
