Kiloshi bduk  nlsthzn  inetpro  and others05:39
nlsthzngood morning uncle Kilos , how are you?05:50
Kilosok ty nlsthzn  and you?05:50
nlsthzngood thanks05:51
Kilosi need help again05:51
nlsthzndon't we all05:51
Kilosi want to connect through a switch box thing05:51
Kilosmust i use vpn for that05:52
nlsthznit is your switch at your home?05:52
Kilosya its right here05:53
Kilosi want to connect to another pc im gonna install server on05:53
Kilosi see vpn openvpn and more05:53
Kilosim reading here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager05:54
nlsthznall you need to be able to see the other PC is if both of there IP's are configured to be on the same subnet... 05:54
nlsthznall to do with setting the correct IP addresses05:55
Kilosok ty thats a start05:55
nlsthznso both should be something like 192.168.1.xxx05:56
nlsthznand then you can use ssh to connect to the server05:56
nlsthznor if you use samba you can share folders etc. that way too05:56
Kilosi want to run minetest on the server so must i choose the host option when installing it05:57
nlsthznI don't know minetest05:57
Kilosits just a game05:57
Kiloslike minecraft05:57
nlsthznI know what it is I don't know how to configure it I mean05:57
nlsthznbut hosting sounds right05:57
Kilosi have it running on here in another user but it slows kde down too much05:58
nlsthznthen all you would need is the ip address of the server to give to the client to be able to connect05:58
nlsthznyou should be able to run the server and the client on the same user afaik05:58
Kilosi get stuck with all the options05:58
nlsthznI see there are wiki's that help - http://wiki.minetest.net/Setting_up_a_server06:00
nlsthznetc06:00
Kilosvpn and openvpn and domain stuff whew06:00
Kilosi dont want it on here. it must be on another pc06:01
Kilosbut lemme look06:01
Kilosif i can make a minetest server on other pc without first installing ubuntu server that will lessen headache06:02
Kilosoi06:04
Kilosfirst let me try change my ip here on kde06:04
nlsthznyou don't need a server edition of linux to run "servers"06:08
Kiloson another pc?06:11
Squirmmorning06:12
Kilosi used nm to try change the ip but ifconfig shows it still the same grrr06:12
Kiloshi Squirm  06:12
Kilosfound this http://www.wikihow.com/Assign-an-IP-Address-on-a-Linux-Computer06:16
Kiloswill read and try06:16
SquirmI tend to have to disable and enable the interface when I change it with nm06:21
Kilosaha ty06:21
Squirmwell, disabled "networking"06:21
Kilosmust i set a static ip address?06:25
nlsthzndepends on how your system get an ip...06:25
nlsthznif they don't automatically get one from DHCP then you can set them manually06:26
Kilosoi you see more options06:26
Kiloswell lets think06:26
Kilosbefore i saw the wifi router with dhcp but now my ip is weird06:27
Kilosso cant even see the router06:27
Kilosthats why im trying the switch thing06:27
Kiloshopefully its not a faulty one06:28
ThatGraemeGuyhow many PCs are you linking together?06:29
Kilos206:30
ThatGraemeGuydoes 1 of them have a gigabit ethernet interface?06:30
Kilosboth do i think, 06:30
ThatGraemeGuyyou don't need a switch just cable them directly to each other06:31
Kiloscouple of years back i had to use a crossover cable to connect them06:31
ThatGraemeGuygigabit interfaces will automatically sort the out, no need for crossover06:32
ThatGraemeGuy*that06:32
Kilosok let me connect directly06:32
ThatGraemeGuyeven if only 1 is gigabit and the other is 100M, it will still work06:32
ThatGraemeGuyyeah, direct connection and they both ought to come up with a 169.254.x.y address06:33
Kilosthe other one has no os installed yet06:34
ThatGraemeGuydoesn't matter, when your O/S or installer comes up it'll get an address like that06:35
Kiloswbb gotta go make sheep food ready06:40
Kilosbeen thinking or trying to anyway07:01
Kilosi think i first must get my ip in the range of the router for when i want to use it07:02
Kilosbefore i do other stuffs07:02
