can i install ubuntu 10.04 Netbook edition in my laptop? Is there any drawback in installing in laptop? which one is better-netbook edition or desktop edition?
I finally got Ubuntu server edition 10.4 LTS installed. But After the installation my computer boots and after the BIOS screen there is a blinking cursor and then the monitor says that there is no input.I am running a Dell Optiplex SX270, no modifications.
I am trying to set up a mailer server on Lucid Lynx using mostly this guide: [url]
I believe I have most of the basics covered. But before launching into the the advanced set up, I want to see if I can get help with one thing I am finding difficult to understand.
In terms of my domain name www.example.com, do I have to do anything on my hosting company's side? That is, www.example.com currently have my web site and it is hosted on a private server at a hosting company. I have the ip address of the server. When I configured postfix, i used this same domain name in the configurations so I want to know what else to do to get it working.
My config: PI945GZD motherboard 2 GB RAM Windows 7 UltimateMy processor supports 64 bit OS but I have not tried any. So should I download and use the 32 bit edition or the 64 bit edition.I have sound blaster 5.1(not sound blaster 5.1 live). Would it work in ubuntu?
It works good , but sometime it NEVER respond (neither after 1 hour) , so I receive no notification . DO you know alternative command to the command above ?
Iam handling mail server in redhat.MTA using is qmail.since last 1 month it get overload and get hang...since in morning its time for user to loging into mail through web interface.though suddenly login in to mail it get overload and server got hang.we need to restart the server...did not get time to kill https also some time MP port work to save us...still didnot get command to overcome the over load in server...
I have a server running ubuntu 9.10 server edition. The system has a built in tv-out powered by an Intel 82865G chip. I have a television connected to that, and it works fine in console mode, but when X loads, the screen starts rolling vertically (a 10 second video clip showing exactly what I mean can be seen at [URL]).
I know it is possible to install a Ubuntu Server Edition and later on 'upgrade' it to a desktop edition by doing
Code: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop But, as I understood it, this installs apps like OpenOffice and such too... Now, is it possible to install the ubuntu-desktop-GUI (so, actually GNOME) without installing all of the unwanted apps Apps I actually need are pulseaudio, transmission and samba, which I prefer to install separately.
I have followed the guide for "The Perfect Server - Debian Lenny (Debian 5.0) With BIND & Dovecot [ISPConfig 3]" and all is well, except.
I can send mail (to GMail) from commandline. I can send mail (to GMail) from any of the domains configured in ISPConfig3 through SquirrelMail (how ever terrible that looks, but functions) or IMAP/POP.
but....
I can't receive mail (from GMail) on any of the domains configured in ISPConfig3 in SquirrelMail or IMAP/POP.
I have my domains configured with proper MX records (just like I have them configured at work). I have all ports (80, 143, 110, 25, 22, etc) forwarded on my router that are needed.
I can Telnet to localhost and all checks are fine. I can send and receive from and to local domains on the same server, which makes sense. but
I can't Telnet from any external server to my server behind NAT.
Conclusion:
I figured it MUST be a network/port-forwarding problem as the external Telnet requests fails to my machine on port 25.
Tested my router if it would let met communicate through port 25 and it would.
So it must be my ISP, as I read in different posts.
Question:
Maybe I'm a n00b, but in all other posts the problems were with receiving AND sending.
My ISP responded that port 25 is blocked because of spam issues.
But I can mail (and even spam if I would like to) to external domains while I didn't do anything weird to make that happen.
The only thing I wish for is to receive mails and if you'd ask me, port 25 would be solely for outgoing mails, not for incoming mail deliveries throught MX?
An ISP surely wouldn't disable their customers in having a mail-server for incoming mails, as long as they would send out through their own smtp server to make sure they wouldn't spam the world?
I bought a magazine "Ubuntu User" that comes with the 9.10 DVD (32- & 64-bit) to avoid heavy download.
1. What is the biggest benefit of the DVD versus the CD ? Having more software on the disc right ? But how can I install additional SW without downloading ? 2. I want to install a Home Server from the DVD but I don't know how to select the server edition to install ? Do I still need to download the CD image for the server edition ? I want to be able to select one or more of the automatic server installation scripts e.g. LAMP.
But when i try the Ubuntu Server Edition, using the same method of burning the iso file i downloaded from ubuntu homepage into a cd, and when i reboot my pc and the screen display the following:ISOLINUX 3.63 Debian 2008-07-15 Copyright (c) 1944-2008 H. Peter Anvin Loading...Initializing gfx codeand it hang there.Do anyone know what happened? I have verified the file i download and the disc i burnt through MD5SUM.

Im using posfix as a outgoing mail server, here i want to distribute the mails to different ips to avoid the ip blacklisting. I found a solution by using multiple transports , but here one thing blocking me was i could not able to select a transport using regexp or pcre matching pattern, log says that
Code: Jun 5 07:12:49 server postfix/trivial-rewrite[6079]: warning: pcre map /etc/postfix/transport.pcre, line 1: regular expression substitution is not allowed: skipping this rule
can i just copy/backup postfix mail queues in /var/spool/postfix and paste that folder back in after i done migrating all users and mails to a new mailserver?
I am trying to instal Ubuntu server edition and am having troubles getting it to boot in the computer i want i to. I am using the ubuntu server edition iso i just downloaded today. I have tried it in my Mac (hold c to boot from cd drive etc...) and it boots fine..there i even tested the disc to make sure it didn't contain any errors. When i throw it into the computer i want to instal it on it does not boot up. I just get a "press h to restart" message
Another thing that should be known is that if i throw a windows xp instal disc in the cd drive it boots just fine. I have tried setting several different boot options but for some reason it doesnt like ubuntu.
Whilst I have used GUI-based Linux distros for the last few years, I am now struggling somewhat when it comes to setting up a server from the command line. All the howto's I've read so far tell you how to set up certain things, but I don't know what I actually need to set up.Rather than asking the same questions all over again on a forum like this, and generally being a bit of a noob, I wonder if there's a resource somewhere that someone could direct me to in order to know what I need to do to set up a fileserver.
The hardware is all done, and I will probably set up a router distro like IpCop to manage the network, but I'm rather lost as to what packages I need, and how to know what the server is/isn't doing.I've used plenty of command lines in the past (ms dos, amiga dos, BASIC programming etc), just not a linux command line. All I've ever done is mount a few drives, use nmap and started x
I have been setting up a box now and have it configured with everything I need and is running great.I would like to test out the netbook remix edition is there a way to install the desktop environment along site with Gnome (like I use to do with KDE)Would be great so I wouldn't have to re-configure drivers and such.To be able to switch from Gnome environment to Netbook remix environment.I am running Ubuntu 10.04.
On my home-server i have got three hard drives, but i only use one of them. I was wondering if anyone knew a guide, how to get use of the two other HDD?
I'm trying to customize an Ubuntu 10.04 server ISO (I've done desktop CDs before) but the guide at[url]...DCustomization isn't making any sense to me.
I want to add new packages and update official versions with custom ones. Let's say I want to update/add my-util-package and plymouth-theme-ubuntu-logo.
I have a machine running karmic server and it will not let me mount a USB drive unless I go throught the terminal process of mounting the drive. How to activate automount on a server edition. My workstations do it automatically, why can't my server?
I am new to ubuntu server. Currently I am running Ubuntu 9.10 server edition. I installed tomcat6 downloaded from apache site and started. But can't run the war file and cant even shut it down. I am running tomcat with default port 8080 and 8005 for shutdown port. I have reinstalled tomcat over and over again. Ubuntu desktop version is running on my pc, everything fine there.
I have Ubuntu Desktop edition. I want to update to Server Edition(Need to do that for assignment) with all features of server edition. Should I download Server edition again or there is another alternative?
I recently built a basic server computer for home use. (this will be for media, documents, music, etc) I have a basic amd mobo, cpu, and dvd drive. I have Ubuntu server 9.10 installed on an 8GB SD card that is attached to a usb dongle. The os loaded just fine And as a storage drive i have a seagate 1TB hard drive.
Then i got to creating shares in samba. I got to editing the smb.conf file and i couldn't figure out how to setup the shares (where exactly the 1tb Hard drive is, how to create directories and what not) Then i realized i needed to format the HDD! but when i go to run fdisk to finally do it, it tells me that it is "unable to open /dev/sda/"
Now i don't know a whole lot about linux as you can tell, but that is the whole reason i set this thing up is for a big learning experience in both linux and network setup.
To sum up, how do i format the 1TB HDD, and how would i set up samba so i could administrate it from my other computer (SWAT is what i've read about)
I've recently upgraded from Ubuntu 9.04 Server edition to Karmic Koala 9.10 server.Earlier when I ran uname -r it showed: KernelVersion-serverNow the current version I've upgraded to shows 2.6.31-20-generic-pae.Should the Ubuntu server edition be using a generic-pae kernel?
What's the difference in terms of scalability? We would be hosting videos and FOSS collaboration tools (wiki, forums, etc.) on 4 separate servers. If I install the cloud server, I will need to install the GUI anyways. The servers are all brand new
I tried installing Ubuntu LTS 10.04 Server Edition 64 bit on one of my drives today...
The install completed fine until it went to reboot. Then it faills while initializing the graphics. It tries (a purple flash on the screen) then goes to a text based dump on the monitor.
Ubuntu LTS 10.04 Desktop Edition run great on this machine. I'm wondering if the Server Edition confused by multiple instances of a video card? This computer is SLI bridged:
Code:
Is the xorg or whatever video subsystem that the server edition uses different than Desktop Edition?
I am trying to set up Ubuntu server edition 10.10 in virtualbox (windows host). All is going well, except that I can't figure out how to install the guest additions. I know how to do it in the normal edition of Ubuntu, but when I navigate to media/cdrom, it's empty.
i just installed ubuntu server edition 10.10, install said it was successful, but instead of loading a normal login screen it takes me to a screen that says exactly this: Quote: Ubuntu 10.10 computer name ttyl computer name login: Im wondering if this is normal or did the install go wrong somewhere, and not report it and if there is a way to fix it.
