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?
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'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 wondering how to setup a wireless connection (I am using WPA or WEP, does anyone know how I can figure that out) and I don't have access to a wired connection and I am not able to reset my router. Does anyone know how I can get my wireless connection working?
I have just installed Ubuntu 10.04 Server on my HP z800 workstation with intel Xeon processor.Installation is fine but monitor goes to sleep mode on boot up.
I 10.04 32bit server edition on a box I had lying around, set it up for samba+upnp, and everything was going great.
When rebooting, the server now turns the monitor off, and I'm not sure if anything's loading. I see the initial dell splash screen, and hear the hard drive start to run, and then the monitor goes into standby.
I have a good grasp on windows server 2003 but I don?t want to pay outrageous license fees for software and services and clients. I am newish to terminal as I only know a few commands. I have no problem installing services for the server edition for 10.04. Its just understanding whats going wrong to troubleshoot. I guess there is you guys and I have good working knowledge of Cisco's IOS's so I understand things like routing tables and interfaces and such for troubleshooting.
Questions I have... Can I install the desktop version of 10.04 and just install the server services? I was looking at the server guide [URL] and would like to know if these can all be installed on the desktop edition without too much trouble. I would imagine one could just use the server edition but I would really want a graphical user environment for some of the activities, if not all that I can. This would be becuase on my skills in the CLI. I priced out a server from Dell. I fits my budget perfectly if I go the Ubuntu 10.04 route. I was wondering if anyone sees any conflicts with the hardware for the Ubuntu OS....
I am trying to install Ubuntu server edition on an old HP XT963 that recently came into my possession. I mainly just wanted to use it as a home file server and print server. I have been running ubuntu desktop on my laptop for a little under a year, but this is my first go at the server edition.
While ubuntu was installing it said "network autoconfiguration failed," I hit continue, thinking I could figure out how to configure it later. After lots of googling I still haven't figured out what exactly is wrong.
Code: auto lo iface lo inet loopack after googling around I made it look like:
[Code]...
I would like to provide more information such as ifconfig and any other commands but I'm not exactly sure how I would do that without being able to copy/paste. I guess I would have the command dump the output to a file, but I'm not familiar with the -options this being my first time CLI-only.
I'm running CentOS 5.3 x64 within a 32 bit version of Windows XP via VirtualBox. What I'm trying to do is install Eclipse such that I can code in both C++ and Java. I'm going to need to eventually add the OpenMP library, but that's later on. Right now, I'm just trying to get Eclipse to that point, I have the gcc and jre installed...it's just that Eclipse is not wanting to cooperate.
I did uninstall the open-jdk and install the Java SE 6u14. java version "1.6.0_14" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_14-b08) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode)
And the gcc... gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-44) Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
I was able to install the Eclipse SDK using yum...
However when I go to update it using Eclipse's update utility to install from the Eclipse Project Updates (in this case, Eclipse 3.2.2 update) I get:
Unable to complete action for feature "Eclipse Platform" due to errors. Unable to complete action for feature "Eclipse RCP" due to errors.

I'm trying to setup my Ubuntu 9.10 laptop to host a small website that I can practice and learn stuff with and I'm a little stuck at the minute.
I have got Apache2 and the LAMP stack installed okay, along with phpMyAdmin and can give my external IP to anyone with the http:// and anyone can view my website that way but what I want to do is have my IP resolve into a domain name like ooloo-website.net but I don't know how to do this.
Is there any way that I can do this like register my IP to a free DNS and domain website without buying a domain or using one of those free ones like ooloo.webhost.net or do I need to host everything myself like DNS and the domain? Can I even do all of this myself?
I have 64-bit ubuntu 9.10 server edition running in a media server for my house. But over the last few months I've discovered that its loosing files! Its not all files, Just music. It will lose anywhere from about half an album the every song in the folder, leaving the artwork if it was in there. At first i thought It was iTunes reorganizing my files, but thats not the case, as i've looked around for them, and told iTunes pretty much to stop messing with my file locations. My boss who's pretty Linux savvy says that 9.10 is really buggy. I've tried doing updates (sudo apt-get update/upgrade) but its still losing music.
I've tried to set up a Hadoop cluster on a few freshly-installed 10.04 Server Edition machines and hit a problem. (I was able to set up the cluster using Desktop edition previously). The issue is that I can't connect to the service even though the Java process is running and listening on the port and there is no error in the logs. Anyway, I started to wonder if it was firewall issue so I googled it and found conflicting information.
1. "Ubuntu Server has no open ports by default" - [URL] 2. iptables shows different info. ufw is also disabled.
I even tried to enable ufw and did "sudo ufw default allow incoming" but still no help. The only package I manually selected during installation is OpenSSH server.
I installed ubuntu 8.04 server edition in my PC to deploy a web application. After the installation was complete i typed apt-get update in the terminal.It's throwing error messages like* Failed to fetch* Unable to connect to in.archive.ubuntu.com* Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.* You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problemsBut when i try it again i get the same issues.
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.
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'm working on a web site. I'm sometimes finding that when I update a file, some mysterious force intercepts my changes and refuses to let me see them. I have confirmed that this mysterious force is a server cache.By adding a "?" to the end of the URL, I can see the changes I've made. Is there a way to somehow force my Internet provider to update the server cache?
On Ubuntu Desktop editions, there is a GUI application which allows easily changing to a different server. It can even find out how one is the fastest update server.Is there a corresponding command line tool available to do this? Because I'm using the Server edition without GUI. I hate to manually edit /etc/apt/source.list.

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.
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 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)
