I am not new to linux but switching to ubuntu for the first time. I had WAMP server installed in my desktop. I made a small website using php and saved all its contents in the WWW folder within the WAMP folder present in the C: drive, (where windows is installed). Now I have installed Ubuntu. I want to know that how could I make that website work in ubuntu also. Or you can say that I would like to know that WHERE would I paste my website source code files in Ubuntu so that I dont have to work again from scratch and make the website run easily in Ubuntu.
I am looking for ideas for getting windows users into an ldap server. I am currently running a Linux server for my department and need to create an LDAP server which mirrors the username/password information for all of us as they are stored in the windows server here. I have the openldap server up and running on Ubuntu 8.04 and it works great; I now need to find some way to import user info into this from windows. I've seen discussions of using ldifde.exe to export the AD users into an ldif file. Is this the simplest way to go about it?
Our Linux server is currently providing us with much needed services using apache, and apache is authenticating using LDAP to our windows server (Using our windows username / password is required functionality). This windows server has some problem which causes it to delay for inordinate amounts of time between authentication requests and responses. The situation is such that this problem will not be addressed by IT staff. However, I have control over the Linux server so I am looking to just mirror the windows server on an LDAP server of my own. I could get away with updating the passwords in the Linux server.
I have a basic HTML file set up which allows my to input some data. I have a MySql database set up behind the scenes with a table for this information to go in. When I click the submit button in my HTML file this PHP file opens and it comes up with "Parse error: parse error in C:wampwwwcomp39xinsert_student.php on line 32"Here is my code I am using in the PHP file:-

I've been supporting Microsoft OS and Apps since 1992. I hold a BSEET and am one test shy of MCSE. I have my own Computer Support business helping Individuals and Small Business keep their M$ PCs running.
I'm also sick of Microsoft. I'm tired of their manipulations, deceptions, and failure to produce Software that serves the needs me and my customers. I've been watching Open Source for 3 years hoping for an Alternative I could recommend to my customers. I'm very excited about Ubuntu 9.10.
There is just one thing missing. I think it can be done, but I need the help of the experienced Users here. What I'd like to do is copy the existing "C:Documents and Settings" folder to a USB Drive, Install Ubuntu using the entire disk (blow Windows away), and finally point the (excellent) Windows Migration Tool in Ubuntu to those Profiles and have it Import them just like it does in a Parallel Install.
I found this:
Code: 1.) Fire up live CD
2.) Open up a terminal
3.) sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove all comments (#) in front of the repositories, and save the file.
4.) sudo apt-get ntfs-3g
5.) mkdir /mnt/win
6.) ntfsmount /dev/<disk and partition number here> /mnt/win
7.) mkdir /mnt/win/users
8.) mv /mnt/win/Documents and Settings/<userprofile here> /mnt/win/users/
9.) umount /mnt/win
10.) start ubiquity from the commandline wih the new-partitioner switch like this: ubiquity --new-partitioner
11.) after the setup is done do NOT reboot
12.) mount the disk in step 6 again and move the profiles from step 8 back to the Documents and Settings folder. Else Windows might throw a tantrum not finding profiles.
But it fails at the sudo apt-get ntfs-3g command. I guess that's because this was written for a version that's several years old. update the Process for v9.10?
Yesterday i bought a new domain e.g [URL].. I have installed in my laptop wamp server and i want to "connect" this domain with my wamp server.I followed this tutorial but didnt worked..[URL]..
I have a Windows 7 partition with all my music. I'm a beginning Ubuntu user and I really like it and so would like to have my music in Ubuntu to create playlists and such since I'm spending more time here (in Ubuntu) and will likely spend most of it unless I require a very specific process. As it stands, I've been going back to my Windows partition purely because my playlists are all set up and all my music is in my music player.
How do I migrate the music from that partition to my Ubuntu one without simply copying GBs and GBs of music and taking up twice the space for the same thing?
refrain from suggesting an external drive, as I don't have the money for one currently.
My wife has decided to give linux a try. I've installed Mint Linux 10 for her.Last week (bad timing) I converted her to Thunderbird. Now I have the task of moving all her mail folders and account settings from Thunderbird under Windows 7 to Thunderbird under linux.Other postings say all I have to do is copy the Windows profile directory to her home directory and rename it .thunderbird.
Doesn't work. When I start Thunderbird all it displays is a window for new account details.I tried just copying the <gibberish>.default directory across and renaming it to the one that was there. Again, no luck.Before it started using sqlite things were simple!I backed up with MozBackup, and then noticed that it only works with Windows.
I have a Windows 2k server running the AD PDC. 60 desktops users and 6 Windows servers use it as a single sign on server to login. As I plan to install a Centos 5.5 server with Samba for NAS and print sharing, is it possible to migrate the PDC services to the Linux server? I want desktop users and windows servers to authenticate on the Linux server. Is this possible? I have never worked with LDAP services. Worse, should I attempt this migration, it must be completed in a very short time frame.
Im a fairly new linux person and have a hopefully easy question. I am running centos with dovecot and postfix for the mail. Im using imap so all the mail is on the server. Im also using thawte certificates. What is the easiest way to move all of this over to a more stable box? The box i have now is a major POS.
I'm migrating a mailserver from an old to a new mailserver. The new mailserver is based on ISPConfig 3.0.6.1. I would like to migrate what spamassassin learnt in the past from the old mailserver to the new one. Now the question:
- The 2 spamassassin versions are different. Is it a problem? - Can I just migrate the database with this commands??? Code: sa-learn --backup > sadb.bkp sa-learn --restore ./sadb.bkp
-how to migrate SpamAssasins Auto White List and all others SpamAssassins databases?
I have a lightweight admin background, but good enough to set up most servers. I have switched from sendmail to postfix for the first time, but I keep going around in circles on the following. In sendmail, I used to maintain a table (mailertable) where I would redirect email like this
[Code]....
I happily mapped any incoming email address of any valid hosted domain either to go out to it's final destination via smtp, or if the person has a local mailbox, it delivered locally. Any errors could be forced, and a catch-all for the domain could be directed also.
I've struggled with virtual hosts and transport and a combination of the two to come up with the same result for postfix. I have this feeling I'm missing something really simple, or I am not 'getting it' when I'm doing something postfixy and I still have sendmaily expectations. right path so I will at least know I'm pointing in the right direction and working with the right files to achieve my aims? Postfix is so amazingly powerful and flexible, I'm having trouble figuring this bit out.
I have this feeling I just need a calm hand on my shoulder, a friendly smile and a hand pointing me the right way..
I have a RAID5 with 5x2TB HD's and I'm planning a major hardware overhaul. My server currently runs on a Pentium4 3.2 Ghz (pre multicore technology) on a SuperMicro mobo. I'm planning to switch to an AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition Thuban 3.3GHz, 3.7GHz Turbo 6.
So here's the question. Can I just plug my drives to the new board and restart the RAID like nothing happened? I don't have space to backup all my data if I have to recreate the RAID from scratch. Intel and AMD should be binary compatible (I mean the RPM's work) so I should be able to invoke mdadm to assemble the RAID after I install Linux on the new server. Right?
I'm looking into migrating postfix mailboxes and users from an old machine running Fedora5 to a new machine running cenOS. I was wondering, what would be the procedure to migrating over existing postfix mail to the new machine? Is it as simple as copying over /home directories and /etc/passwd etc?
I have a cpanel server(not sure if that matters). I wanna transfer to another cpanel server. The size is about 3TB, I dont have enough on the hard drive to zip then transfer that way, and cpanel cant handle moving such a large migration.Been searching on the net to find an answer but everyone saying to backup then migrate. whats best tar or rsync or somthing else.
Long time lurker, still a Linux noob but Im learning I currently have a home media server setup with the following hardware specs:
MSI P45 motherboard Intel Core2Quad Q6600 8GB DDR2 RAM 2x 250GB WD HDD in RAID1 via LVM (boot/swap etc) 8x2TB Hitachi HDD in RAID5 via mdadm (media/data)
The server mainly serves files for HTPCs around the house and runs a few VMs with VMWare server. I have recently picked up the following hardware which I�m thinking about upgrading to:
My main concern is will I be able to just swap the driving into the new system and everything can just pick up where it left off? More specifically, will mdadm be able to detect the 8x2TB drives attached to the new hardware and re-assemble the array?
My buddy that helped me set this system up isnt sure so I figured I ask here first, the boards do have the same ICH10R southbridge providing 6 of the SATA ports and 2 more will be run off of the extra controller onboard. I dont have a lot of Linux experience switching out core parts but in Windows Ive had great success moving things between various Intel chipsets and architectures from P965 -> P35 -> P45 -> H55 -> X58.
We have Nagios and Pnp4nagios which saves performance data in hostperfdata and serviceperfdata files.Now we are migrating our system to centreon which will have NDO.
This will save the performance data to Mysql database.The requirement here is to feed current performance data file to NDO mysql database.
I have a friend that want to migrate his server to a open source mail system. Currently, he's using a system using Maildir. So I decided to use qmail since it has support for Maildir and it has pop3 capability. Courier-imap is the one I'll be using for IMAP. My concern is webmail. Can anyone suggest a webmail that will run using Maildir format and has addressbook and calendar feature. I'll be using a single server only. Please exclude Squirrelmail from the list.

Can this be done? A company is currently running a postfix mail server. They got a new server and, while the users are migrated, they need to have the messages delivered on BOTH servers.
I thought it could be easily done in postfix: deliver locally AND forward mail to new server, but all solutions I found would deliver the messages in just ONE place.
I migrated from 9.10 to 10.4 during the package installation I have the error: E: resolvconf: il sottoprocesso vecchio script di post-installation ha restituito lo stato di errore 1 ( In italian because I install the Italian version). The problem is: the file /etc/resol.conf I can't modify or delete from all user, root also.
I haven't used this tool for a couple of months now and in that time I've had to reinstall ubuntu 10.10 for other needs. so I've gotten the tool back because of certain characters that ubuntu won't recognize, but I'm having an issue with it. I get this when I try to run it: Your current encoding was not found, or you are using the C Locale. Please pick a supported language from usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED and log in again.
I'm not sure exactly how to do this and wanted to ask here first before I screw something up with the unicode. Also this hasn't happened to me the first time I've used this, but also I didn't perform or install as many other options and devices as last time either.
I started using ubuntu now again as my second os. when i want to do some gaming i still need windows most of the times and some windows apps i just cant find equal versions in ubuntu at least not as user friendly yet. Now my question is this. I did not migrate my music to ubuntu during the installation due to i simply forgot so is there anyway to simply relaunch just the Migration assistant ? All i want is that my music from windows appears when i go to my music folder this will also make it easier for me when i use amarok.
I have transferred my Ubuntu partition (along with Windows XP and Linux swap partitions) to a new HDD using TrueImage's sector-by-sector method. Ubuntu runs quite well after I've made the suggested updates/upgrades. System version now is 10:04 Lucid Lynx. However, I'm missing the ALT-CTRL-F1 .. F6 terminals. All I see is a pattern of vertical stripes in the colors of my gnome desktop. Each time I switch from graphic mode to textmode the pattern shows a different variation of these colors.
I'm in the Live CD and I've followed the steps to the migration assistant. Where it should say "Windows XP Media Center Edition" it claims that "There were no other users or operating systems suitable for importing from"
Also, on the where to install to step, Where at the top it should say that another operating system is installed, it is blank.
I'm wondering if I continue the installation, on boot-up will it detect windows?
I have searched this, and after 15 pages of results, I have not come to a definite conclusion.
My wubi installation works perfectly but since i cannot restart my netbook i cannot get to use it. however, i am a bioinformatician and for that type of work, i need linux.
migrating my ubuntu wubi install to a different partition on my hdd, from within windows (without restart) in order for me to mount that partition using vmware player and booting up ubuntu from windows. (and to possibly be able to do that from ubuntu as well later.)
so i need to move this wubi install.
I am used to old school move files and edit boot ini and such if there is no automatic way of doing this from within windows.
