I live in India and my computer's time is always a minute ahead. I have selected the option to keep it synchronized with internet time servers but as there does not appear to be a time server for ubuntu in India I am not sure what to do. As of now I tried selecting foreign server but can't see anything happen.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been having trouble figuring this out. I have a machine running CentOS 5 and I want to setup an SMTP server behind a router on a home broadband connection. I've read many guides but nothing too specific as to what I need to do. I want to use either sendmail or postfix, but I don't know if I should purchase an SMTP relay. If anyone could point me in the right direction it would be great. I also have bought a domain name that I want to use, but I just cant put all these pieces together as of right now.

I'm slowly figuring out Mythbuntu. How cool it is! I continue to have this problem...Some channels have trouble locking initially. Some even hang while viewing. Using exactly the same antenna and cabling, my Samsung DTB-H260F has no such issue. All channels are rock solid. Is there some setting not correct in MythTV? Do I need to invest in a better tuner?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am experiencing strange difficulties with Samba. The permissions aren't set correctly, when creating a file or a folder on the mounted samba share.
My smb.conf looks as follows:
Code:
[shareOffice]
path = /home/shareOffice
writable = yes
browseable = yes
create mode = 0777
directory mask = 0777
force create mode = 0777
force directory mode = 0777
Now if I create a regular file on the folder:
Code:
touch testFile; ls -l
The permissions turn out to be:
Code:
-rwxr-xrwx 1 simon share 0 2011-06-28 21:42 testFile
Why the w bit on the group is missing? If I play around with the create mode / force create mode, I get every other possible permission output --- except the write access for group members.

I have a number of CentOS 5.5 virtual machines running on VMware ESXi 4. Most of them are fine, but one of them has the incorrect time and no matter what I try I can't get it to display properly. The time seems to be 15 hours behind and I think that might be because the original source virtual machine was an appliance built in Canada and my timezone is Australia/Sydney.
/etc/sysconfig/clock:
UTC=true
ARC=false

I thought that was all of the settings I needed to make. Is there something else I've missed? Why can't I get the time right?
I just set up my dad's pc with Debian Sqeeze. It runs perfectly fine and after trying a lot of distro's Debian is the only one that will not crash or freeze up X. Now we're forced to using my own 17" monitor instead of his 19" wide screen since the max res is 1280 x 1024 in Sqeeze. What he needs is 1360 x 768. I found out in the wiki that xorg.conf needs to be edited. Since the file does not exist it needs to be created by running "Xorg -configure" in tty after stopping GDM. when running the "Xorg -configure" command this is the output;
" vmware: Please ignore above "FATAL: Module vmwgfx bot found."
(++) Using config file: "/root/xorg.conf.new"
(==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"
Number of created screens does not match number of detected devices.
Configuration failed. "
It's an Intel Sandy Bridge integrated graphics chip. I've tried running "Xorg:1 -configure" as mentioned in a forum but that simply gives me a "unknown command" answer.

I'm at Fedora 13 - 2.6.34.8-68.fc13.i686.PAE
Problem
1. /dev/parport0 is not found by sane unless you reset permissions after each boot
2. hplip udev rules only seem to support usb devices.
3. there are no/dev/parport[0-9] rules in udev/rules.d anymore
4. Did I read something about these ports being handled by HAL ACLs? If so, how do you do it?
default:
ls -laF /dev/parport0
crw-rw---- 1 root lp 99, 0 Jun 23 07:48 /dev/parport0
must do at each boot: sudo chmod 666 /dev/parport0
I formatted a external 160 GB HDD (Lacie) with EXT3 and encrypted. The formatting went perfect. When I stick it into the USB slot, it is recognized and mounted by HAL. Hal asks me the password and then everything seems ok. But I have no write access. Only root has. I would like to use it to store my user data, externally, but encrypted. How can I set the write permission to make this possible? Why does HAL attribute the write permissions to root, even if I have given the password as user?

In a little over my head here but eager to learn. Running Fedora 10 on an IBM T41. Trying to set up a local server so that I can run PHP and test webpages locally (I'm a client-side web designer). Went through the SendDerek tutorial and everything went great until I tried to check the port with canyouseeme.org. I get "Connection timed out" every time.
- The httpd service is started via the terminal.
- Port 80 is unblocked via "Firewall Configuration."
- I set up port forwarding on my router.
What am I missing? I just want to be able to have the local computer run my PHP scripts instead of having to upload them to a remote server every time I make a change.
I just installed OpenSuse 11.2 3 months ago on my laptop. I'm running with the Gnome Desktop. I live in Chicago and am currently in London. When I set the timezone to Europe/UK the date/time are correct UNTIL I reboot the laptop. After reboot if I type in the 'date' command it shows the time at 6+ hours from London time. When I check the hardware clock 'hwclock' it displays the correct London time. I check the time setup with yast and it shows the correct Timezone but again shows the 6+ hours difference. I change the time in yast and and my applications ( e-mail) display the correct local time again... UNTIL I reboot and then I'm right back where I started - wrong local time ! I suppose I could write a little startup script to do a 'hwclock --hctosys' but I thought I'd check here first to see if anyone out there had any ideas..BTW - I hate to say this but on the same laptop running XP I don't have this problem AND I didn't see this problem in OpenSuse 10.3 or 11.1

I get the following error while starting apache httpd
Code: httpd: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <Server's-ip-address> for ServerName I googled it and have come across the following solutions, all of them involve changing the ServerName setting in httpd.conf:ServerName localhost ServerName www.example.com:80 ServerName <ip-address-of-server> ServerName <hostname-of-machine/FQDN>
I am setting up httpd to be accessed from over a LAN, so i don't have a .com domain name. I am thinking of going with the first option, it seems to be working...
