daftykinsthese are really basic questions. research online.07:16
bujjidaftykins:Is there any free server to activate and use.07:17
daftykinswhat do you mean by free server?07:18
daftykinsLinux distros are free, ubuntu is free, samba is free07:18
directhexapple don't use samba anymore in osx, they wrote their own thing07:18
daftykinsSMBv2 and broke it :D07:19
bujjiokey directhex07:19
bujjidaftykins:it means to operate a free server from my windows to linux07:20
directhexthe built-in windows file-sharing protocol is called "CIFS". windows has CIFS sharing and access built-in. Linux does it with parts of Samba. OSX does it with parts of apple's home-built Samba replacement07:21
bujjidirecthex:good info07:24
bujjidaftykins:?07:24
bujjioly:Is there any free server to activate and use.07:30

bujjidaftykins: I am not able to install subversion in ubuntu.08:10
directhexhow the hell did we get onto subversion?08:11
bujjidirecthex: Its a configuration management(version control) tool.I am not able to install this on my machine.08:14
directhexno. subversion is a source-control system08:14
zmoylan-piwhat error do you get?08:14
directhexand it has nothing to do with samba08:15
bujjidirecthex: its required for file sharing right.08:16
directhexnot in any remote way, shape, or... i mean, i'm struggling here to even comprehend why you'd think that08:16

bashrcat the risk of revisiting the Monowars I think that as a technology it's fine, but that the patent threats are real. The implementation of Mono went a long way beyond the ECMA specification12:36
* zmoylan-pi opens the shed with the torches and pitchforks ready to be handed out _1_ per customer12:37
intrbizbashrc: does the fact MS has spun .net off into a foundation, with an open source core, and Xamarin as a board member, make things better?12:37

DJonesIs there any preferred dlna server software for an Ubuntu 12.04 server15:38
DJonesI was thinking about MiniDLNA15:39
bigcalmDLNA?15:39
DJoneshttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/MiniDLNA15:40
DJonesBasically broadcasts video over wifi to a DLNA enabled tv set15:40
bigcalmI see15:40
knightwiseDJones minidlna works pretty good15:40
knightwisePlex is also awesome15:40
bigcalmI use mediatomb - is that the same thing?15:40
DJonesI think it is the same15:41
bigcalmI don't know if it's the server, but all clients I've seen are terrible15:44
DJonesJust bought a smart tv with dlna capeabilities, seems an obvious choice to set it up on the server since I've already got a stack of video etc there that I normally play on a tablet via ssh15:46
DJonesAlthough probably mean my wife won't get out of bed once christmas & family visiting is over and done with15:47

KrimZoni've just installed mate in 14.04 but I don't see a cog in lightdm in order to choose it as a desktop - does anyone know how to fix that?16:26
