[05:18] More almal [05:39] hi bduk nlsthzn inetpro and others [05:50] good morning uncle Kilos , how are you? [05:50] ok ty nlsthzn and you? [05:51] good thanks [05:51] i need help again [05:51] don't we all [05:51] i want to connect through a switch box thing [05:52] must i use vpn for that [05:52] it is your switch at your home? [05:53] ya its right here [05:53] i want to connect to another pc im gonna install server on [05:53] i see vpn openvpn and more [05:54] im reading here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager [05:54] all 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... [05:55] all to do with setting the correct IP addresses [05:55] ok ty thats a start [05:56] so both should be something like 192.168.1.xxx [05:56] and then you can use ssh to connect to the server [05:56] or if you use samba you can share folders etc. that way too [05:57] i want to run minetest on the server so must i choose the host option when installing it [05:57] I don't know minetest [05:57] its just a game [05:57] like minecraft [05:57] I know what it is I don't know how to configure it I mean [05:57] but hosting sounds right [05:58] i have it running on here in another user but it slows kde down too much [05:58] then all you would need is the ip address of the server to give to the client to be able to connect [05:58] you should be able to run the server and the client on the same user afaik [05:58] i get stuck with all the options [06:00] I see there are wiki's that help - http://wiki.minetest.net/Setting_up_a_server [06:00] etc [06:00] vpn and openvpn and domain stuff whew [06:01] i dont want it on here. it must be on another pc [06:01] but lemme look [06:02] if i can make a minetest server on other pc without first installing ubuntu server that will lessen headache [06:04] oi [06:04] first let me try change my ip here on kde [06:08] you don't need a server edition of linux to run "servers" [06:11] on another pc? [06:12] morning [06:12] i used nm to try change the ip but ifconfig shows it still the same grrr [06:12] hi Squirm [06:16] found this http://www.wikihow.com/Assign-an-IP-Address-on-a-Linux-Computer [06:16] will read and try [06:21] I tend to have to disable and enable the interface when I change it with nm [06:21] aha ty [06:21] well, disabled "networking" [06:25] must i set a static ip address? [06:25] depends on how your system get an ip... [06:26] if they don't automatically get one from DHCP then you can set them manually [06:26] oi you see more options [06:26] well lets think [06:27] before i saw the wifi router with dhcp but now my ip is weird [06:27] so cant even see the router [06:27] thats why im trying the switch thing [06:28] hopefully its not a faulty one [06:29] how many PCs are you linking together? [06:30] 2 [06:30] does 1 of them have a gigabit ethernet interface? [06:30] both do i think, [06:31] you don't need a switch just cable them directly to each other [06:31] couple of years back i had to use a crossover cable to connect them [06:32] gigabit interfaces will automatically sort the out, no need for crossover [06:32] *that [06:32] ok let me connect directly [06:32] even if only 1 is gigabit and the other is 100M, it will still work [06:33] yeah, direct connection and they both ought to come up with a 169.254.x.y address [06:34] the other one has no os installed yet [06:35] doesn't matter, when your O/S or installer comes up it'll get an address like that [06:40] wbb gotta go make sheep food ready [07:01] been thinking or trying to anyway [07:02] i think i first must get my ip in the range of the router for when i want to use it [07:02] before i do other stuffs [07:40] good mornings [07:40] 'lo [08:01] ohi [08:02] hi superfly [08:02] lo inetpro [08:03] in between Spekko [08:19] more Kilos [08:28] morning all [08:29] morning [09:32] hi Joe_knock [09:32] welcome to ubuntu-za [09:33] Kilos: I've been here before :P [09:33] lol well welcome back then [09:34] what did you break?
