I have an Ubuntu server installed at home, on an older machine. Unfortunately I am to far from my router to run cat5 and solve this issue. But I want to be able to have the wireless come up if the server restarts as then i could log in remotely.

I have to click the network icon in the task bar, and select "Auto Mobile Broadband (CDMA) Connection" to get it to connect though. It then shows up via "ifconfig" as ppp0 and all is good.
But how do I get this to auto-start when the system reboots? It doesn't show up in the network manager, and I'm not even sure how to use command-line to start up the CDMA connection! I only can do it via clicking that icon.
How do I stop Lighttpd server from auto starting when I boot? I'm using it on my laptop for testing and I'd like to turn it on when I need it but not have it autostart.

The command is simple, "synergyc <computername>".
I've tried putting the command (see above) into rc.local I've tried putting the command in a script and referencing in in rc.local I've followed the instructions for building it into init levels (2-5) with chkconfig
Quote:chkconfig --list
synergy.sh 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
I've got it to the point it will run when you login by adding a line to the /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart file. Added "synergyc 111.111.1.11" and it works perfect. So the main question is, how can I add that line somewhere, somehow to start on boot and not by login?

I was using ndsiwrapper with XP driver, but always prefer to Linux drivers if they are available. So, I emailed Realtek web support and they sent me latest drivers for Ubuntu 10.04. I followed their instructions and it works great! With, the exception of, I have to run ./wlan0up each time after I login to start the wireless.
I seem to remember having to modify a file some place, which was very easy to do, but for the life of me I cannot seem to remember what it was or what to put into it? and also, how do you tell if your wireless card is making use of the "n" speed, if the network your are on has it available?
I've been having terrible trouble with my 64bit Desktop v10.04 ever since I upgraded it. Has been a long battle - but I think I have it down to just one remaining issue which I suspect is more related to the network than to the upgrade. So I'll ask here also... The old system always used grub as the bootloader, and has always worked just fine. I have now had to do a complete fresh install, which incorporated a change to grub2 (first time I have used it).
It would seem now, that grub2 is unable to deal with mounting the samba shares on my lan at boot time. The boot always fails, dumping the user to the cli rather than the gui desktop. The error given indicates that the network is unreachable. Most users of the system have given up on Ubuntu altogether because of this, and fallen back into the clutches of the evil empire (the machine dual boots XP). If I log in, and manually startx to open the desktop, the network is there, and the shares are mounted just fine. Everything seems to be working ok - but for crashing out of the boot process with network errors. The fstab file follows, in case there is some cause there I'm not seeing (I have edited names and passwords prior to posting)...

I created a F14 x86_64 guest OS in VirtualBox4 (hosted by F14 x86_64) and configured it to get its IP from my router but it won't do so on boot. The other guest OS's (Fedora 14 i386, 2x Oracle EL5) are able to get their IPs on boot.
I checked the setting in the network manager and they show that the interface is to be activated on boot but it doesn't. When I log in and run ifup eth0 as root it works.
I have update my linux server from mandriva 9 to mandriva 2010
I was working using samba 2.2.8 and now I have samba 3.5.3.I have transfer all passwd and smbpasswd to new linux.I have convert smbpasswd to tdbsam
when i am using win xp to logon on samba domain the windows XP does not load profiles from samba. I think that the problem is NTUSER.DAT storing in /home/user/profile
The same profile is working using samba 2.2.8 but not working in samba 3.5.3..
I want to use samba for file sharing like on a Windows home network. Actually they are all Linux machines but nfs is too complicated. On my host machine I installed samba and system-config-samba. I created a new share for /home, check marked writable and visible and put access to everybody. For preferences-->server settings--> security the "authentication mode" is set to user, encrypt passwords is no, and guest account is no guest account. Under preferences-->samba users I added myself as a user with the same windows user name as my Linux user name and the same password.
My client is a virtualbox fedora (used for testing purposes but actual clients will be real computers on my home network). I entered the address smb://192.168.1.184. When asked for the user name and password I put my regular user name and password since that was what I set in samba users. However, the password dialog keeps coming up and won't let met into my own computer. If I quit it says something like access is denied. How can I get my home network back? I liked this feature when my home computers ran XP but I switched them to Fedora 12.
Start>Run>\192.168.0.1storage gives me "The specified network password is not correct." It lists my domain as "ANTEC" which is the name of my computer, though I've changed the workgroup to WELLS. I've run:
setsebool -P samba_domain_controller on
Trying to connect to samba locally gives me this:

Ive managed to install samba, I've shared a folder. I can access from a Windows 7 machine via \ubuntupublic. I can put files in the folder form the ubuntu machine and edit them on the windows box. I can put files in the folder/share from the Windows box but then I cannot edit them on the Ubuntu machine (they are read only and have a "Lock" over them). I can fix this by going to the properties of the file/folder in Windows and manually assigning "Everybody" full control (then the lock disappears and all is well.) I want read/write access to all the folders contents from both machines all the time (security is NOT a concern I WANT the permissions wide open) what am I doing wrong?

My Ubuntu is the latest, Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit.
I have 2 hard drives, one holds windows (160gb), another has three partitions, 15gb for ubuntu 10.04, 5gb for swap, and the remaining 480gb formatted as ntfs for files..
The 480gb space is drive D:, my files are located there and i point the apps to get their files from drive D:. For example, "My Music" folder is in drive D:, and so I tell SongBird to grab the music files from that directory.
It's not a big problem, but whenever I restart ubuntu, drive D: does not automatically open so SongBird initially cannot locate the files. What I want to happen is that when ubuntu starts, drive D: is already loaded, so that the applications can grab the files they need from that drive automatically without me having to manually open drive D: everytime ubuntu starts.
I have a file server running samba 3.4.0. I just upgraded ubuntu to 9.10. The upgrade was unfortunately stopped in the middle, but I think I managed to complete it.The problem is that now samba will not work after a reboot. The daemons are running, but any attempt to connect from a windows machine fails (Windows 7: the network path was not found). Manually restarting the service fixes the problem, but I need a more stable solution!Interestingly, I can ssh to the machine, or rdp to a virtual machine running on it.The logs don't seem to report any error:
Code:
stefano@SERVER02:/var/log/samba$ tail log.smbd

But it's not starting. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or if there's another way to autostart programs?

What should i do?and is there a way to remove volume indicator from indicator menu?

I am working on a custom install preseed. Part of the process is creating a file: /home/bholt/.config/autostart/starter.sh
That way on first boot, this will execute and continue my custom process.
But it does not start. After boot if I go double click it it runs fine.
And one time it did auto start correctly. But I don't know what I did to break it.
All i can think is I changed starter.sh to in turn start something else rather than just run itself.
i understand autostarting an app is done at setting > session and startup > application autostart.
where is the vlc app located?
i've tried
usr/share/vlc.ico
&
usr/share/vlc.desktop
none of those two have worked.

I have successfully installed this on my Ubuntu 10.10 machine and it seems to be working well.
My problem is, I can't figure out how to have the agent autostart when I boot.
Currently, to launch the agent, I need to open a terminal, change to the directory where the agent is installed, then run this command:
I assume it should be fairly simple to add this to the Startup Applications, but being a noon I can't figure it out!
I am using an Ubuntu VPS(Virtual private server) with SSH access. I run my applications(mangos-realmd & mangos-worldd) in SSH terminal and they start up fine. But when I close the SSH terminal they close! but I want it so that when I close my SSH terminal that those programs remain running, and also want them to start up each time I reboot my system. I am found out with rc.local this is now solved or what-not
