ukchrisdoes anyone know if it is possible to access a windows remote desktop via putty on ubuntu?20:43
holsteinukchris: http://www.freesshd.com/ maybe20:48
holsteinOH.. the desktop.. nah.. putty is a TTY, not graphical like that20:48
philipballew_Where in my home directory would I place a script to run each time I log in?20:50
holsteinphilipballew_: where ever really... its where you put the script to auto-run it that matters20:51
philipballew_holstein, explain. :)20:51
holsteinin whatever startup, you say run path/to/file20:52
holsteinthats over simplified though of course20:52
philipballew_yeah, but I need it to exicute each tie I login. also this is a headless machine20:53
philipballew_*time20:54
philipballew_I guess I can type ./path/to/file in my .profile?20:55
philipballew_but im not sure holstein20:56
jalcinephilipballew_: I was thinking that, to add it to your .profile.20:56
philipballew_jalcine, just at the bottom maybe20:57
jalcineBut if you use bash, you should add it to ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_login20:58
philipballew_well its actually a expect script20:59
jalcinehmm.20:59
philipballew_hey When I try and run a script my typing 'pach/to/script' in my desktop I connect to a server the script wants but when I run the same command on my server I receive an error saying " : no such file or directory21:25

holsteinphilipballew_: i would test in the terminal ..confirm the path21:29
holstein!ask | dpcrespo21:29
ubot2`dpcrespo: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience21:29
philipballew_holstein, well I can ls and see the file there21:29
holsteinphilipballew_: odd... i would just double *double* check21:29
