Jun 1, 2010I have installed Windows 2003 Server, on that i have installed VMware and in VMware i have installed Ubuntu.Now my requirement is i want to run a Windows Application shortcut from Ubuntu, for that i have installed wine on Ubuntu.Now i have copied and pasted the Shortcut of that Windows Application on Ubuntu's Desktop. When i check the Windows Application shortcut properties its path will be something like this \192.168.1.15ApplicationApplication.exe, but i am unable to run that Application shortcut in Ubuntu.
If i try samething on the other windows system on network it works fine. Actually its a thin client server architecture where i want my thin client to use ubuntu and access the windows application shortcut and run the windows application shortcut on ubuntu. To be more clear my windows 2003 server runs a windows application which has MSSQL as database. Now on my ubuntu system the login page is able to popup but when i give username and password it gives something like server not found,how do i need to approach this issue.

May 16, 2011I want to be able to create a service so that the bash script will run every time the server boots up.
I am running CentOS 5.
I have been reading about chkconfig and creating a file in /etc/init.d for chkconfig to handle but I cannot seem to get it to work whenever I 'chkconfig servicename on' and then 'service servicename start'
When I do chkconfig --list my service is listed there.

Fedora :: LVM For BAPCKUPPC - Create A Link To The New Location And What To Mount
Aug 26, 2011I have read that it is best to have a volume LVM set up to contain the BackupPC data that it generates when backing a machine(s) up. By default BackupPC stores the back up data in /var/lib/BackupPC and there is information on how to create a link to the new location and what to mount on the new dedicated LVM What I do not know is how to create a new LVM for the BackupPC files/data on the machine I have. Currently I have a machine running fedora 15 64 bit. It has BackupPC installed via yum but I have not run it as yet. I believe that I have the necessary dependencies installed The machine has two hard drives, one a 80 GB and the other a 500 GB. Currently Gparted is showing;
/dev/sdb1 ext4 /Boot 500MiB
/dev/sdb2 Lvm2 74.04 GiB (in properties it says it is not mounted)
/dev/sdb1 Lvm2 465.76 GiB (in properties it says it is not mounted)
When the machine was loaded with Fedora it was set up as 1 partition and was just a standard out of the box Fedora install accepting the defaults. how do i go about setting up a LVM that I can expand later if necessary to hold the BackupPC data? I saw in one post some where that person call the group Main. how to" or provide a set by set guide as to how to achieve this. Or provide advise o the best way to set the machine up. I do not intend to run anything else on the machine. It is there to back up a server (Fedora 14), A general use machine machine (Fedora 15) and a windows machine (XP).
General :: Create Link To Executable In Parent Directory
Jun 27, 2011Create the following directories: parent/child
Navigate to child and create a file named child (this is an executable file in my case, not sure if that makes a difference). I need to create two "link to executable" links in the parent.
I had assumed that this would work:
ln -sf ./child ../child1
ln -sf ./child ../child2
But that creates a "link to folder" (./child) in the parent directory. If I change it to:
ln -sf -t.. ./child child1
ln -sf -t.. ./child child2
I get an error, "ln: '../child': cannot overwrite directory".
If I do it from the parent directory (which I cannot do, this is part of a Makefile recipe):
ln -sf ./child/child ./child1
ln -sf ./child/child ./child2
It works. Note that I cannot alter the names of any directories or files. How do I create the links when the current directory is the child?
Software :: Create A Symbolic Link That Points To An Ftp Location?
Jul 1, 2011I have a large collection of files on a computer (tallgrass) and tallgrass is running an ftp server, which I have the username and password to. There is about 600 GB of files on tallgrass that I need access to, but I don't have a big enough hard drive. I need these data files to run a cpu-intensive calculation, and my CPU is significantly better than tallgrass' cpu, which is why I want to do it on my computer. (Tallgrass also doesn't have enough RAM.) What I would like to do is create a "symbolic link" on my hard drive that will point to the directory containing the data on tallgrass. Read-only is perfectly OK. This way I could read from mylink/data0001.dat and it would read from the file data0001.dat over ftp from tallgrass. I shouldn't have any speed issues because tallgrass is on my 1 Gbps LAN. Is there a way I can do this?

Ubuntu :: How To Add Service To System Start Up
Feb 13, 2010My Ubuntu 9.10 Server does not automatically get an ip address at start up and I have to run
Code:
sudo dhclient
every time so I it connects to the network, gets an ip etc. This is fine so long as I am physically present. If I am accessing it remotely using SSH and reboot the system there's no way I can connect back again untill someone runs a sudo dhclient on the machine.
No I am trying to add dhclient to startup automatically. I was hoping to put it in
/etc/rc2.d but to be able to run the script must be present in /etc/init.d. The dhclient command is located in /sbin
Creating a sym link in etc/init.d to point to /sbin/dhclient hasn't worked for me so far. I can't copy the command to /etc/init.d before running
Code:
update-rc.d dhclient default?? How else do I have it run at system start?
Ubuntu :: Custom Live CD - Run Without Changing System Link

I have found ways to get the live cd to run on USB, but it still involves clicking the "run without changing your system link" and I cannot figure out how to run the script on start up.
Ubuntu :: OpenMotif : Create Network Location Link As Local Filesystem Location?
Apr 26, 2011I'm working with a program that uses Open Motif to create all of the widgets, including the Open File dialog box (obviously). However, Open Motif being kinda old-timey, 80's vintage, and for the most part now an abandoned project, it is quite clunky. So, actually what I need to do is to open some files located on my work server. I have already successfully connected to the relevant server directories with Samba, and with programs built with GTK+ (such as GIMP) I can open files across the network because I have created a bookmark in Nautilus, and those bookmarks appear in the Open File dialog box created by GTK+. Now, Open Motif is different: it doesn't see network locations, orNautilus shortcuts. When I type "smb://serveripyadayada" in the search folder, it really doesn't like it and complains. So, what do I do? Can I get somehow Open Motif to open a network location? Or can I do a run-around and place a shortcut in the file system that points to the network location?
View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Create A Link To "My Documents" Folder On XP Partition?
Apr 14, 2010I've recently installed Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic as a dual boot with WinXP and love it. I've been able to mount my WinXP partition and can access files read/write successfully.
I'd like my WinXP "My Documents" folder to appear as a linked folder in my Linux Home directory.
I think I should be able to use the ln command, but I can't figure it out.
I've tried to create a link that will appear like a "folder" called WinDocs in my Home directory with this command, run from my Home folder:
ln -t /dev/sda1/Documents and Settings/richard/My Documents/ /WinDocs/
but it reports
ln: accessing `/dev/sda1/Documents and Settings/richard/My Documents/': Not a directory
I get the same results if I try /dev/hda1 etc.
I can see the contents of the folder currently in my Places listing. Its shortcut is active on my desktop.
