Ubuntu :: End The X Server From Inside The Gui?
Jul 11, 2010
I've just installed ubuntu 10.04 server on an old box to use as a home server for network storage. I've managed to get wireless working, and now have started to tinker with the base system (it's more of an experimental machine than a critical backup server!). I've installed xorg-core and JWM, and have set it up to function as a basic GUI in case my main box goes down and I need access to these forums. I can start JWM by using
Code: startx, but I need to know how to end the X server from inside the gui, so that I can create a kind of 'exit' button. I know I can end the session by going back to tty1 with ctrl-alt-f1 and using ctrl-c, but is there a way of doing this from inside of the gui? Is it even possible?

I got Apache and php5. I was able to insert php scripts from tutorial and see the results in Mozilla browser. But now something happened and Apache seems to ignore php script. I don't remember what i had done to my system that might have caused this problem, but most likely it is moving partitions in partition aditor, as this was the most serious thing I had undertaken.

I know this is a common problem, but i have a special case that troubles me and i can't find an answer anywhere. The facts are like this: I have a linux router. I have 2 FTP servers. One on port 21, one on port 201 (on the same internal IP). The FTP works great when connecting on both servers from the outside. My problem is when i'm trying to connect to the 201 FTP server from inside the network using the external ip.
I get this:
ftp> ls
200 Port command successful
150 Opening data channel for directory list.
And it stays like this forever.

My website is domaintoolscentral dot com, I want to use PHP inside of my HTML pages but I can't seem to figure it out. I know it has to do with the httpd.conf file or I think it does. I do not want to use a .htacess file.

I'm using Slackware 13.0 on my server and am going to be employing a file-sharing service for a client. I was able to enable a quota, but my problem now is keeping the user inside their home directory. I've searched around and found an old thread on here (from 2003) that gave me some ideas, but it still isn't working. Should I be running vsftpd standalone or leave it on the inetd? If I set the shell to /sbin/nologin or /bin/false, the user can't log in through FTP, even.
chroot_local_user=NO
chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list
from /etc/passwd:

I setup a private network from virtual machines and one of the machines is the DHCP server for the group. I want to specify a next-server for the DHCP server but I'm having trouble connecting to any of the machines that I lease IPs to. I'm just trying to do a simple ping/ssh to 10.0.0.252 (a machine with a lease) but it doesn't seem to respond. I'm assuming I need to be able to connect to my next-server but maybe I'm wrong.

I've just started playing with virtualization and I started my first VM. I would like to know if it's possible for the host machine to mount the partitions of the VM when it's closed. Right now the VM uses /dev/vg0/vm1 and has 3 partitions on it. I tried mount /dev/vg0/vm1 ~/vm1 at first before I remembered that I'd need a way to mount a specific partition inside the logical volume, not the volume itself!

I have a small internal network with about 8 or so servers or workstations. My mail server is getting spammed from all over to the root and other administrative accounts. I also get valid email sent to the root and administrative accounts from within my local network. Is there a way to block all email coming from outside my local network while still receiving it inside the local network to these specific accounts?

I sshed to a server a week ago, then ran *screen* and created a few windows in my screen session. I then ran a few programs on those screens. All the programs were running in the background (I run them with &). I did not close or detach from the screen sessions. So I was still connected to those screen sessions from my client machine.
Then, this morning I find my client machine rebooted. When I do screen -ls I find there are no screens available to reattach to. But that is not the worst part. The strange thing is that all my processes (which were running on the server) have disappeared as well, even though they were running in the background. I thought 1) using screen I will be able to re-attach to old screens when my client restarts, 2) If I have sshed to a server and have run programs in the background, restarting the client should not stop those programs (even if I had not used screen).

I have a file server that all of my windows users have their my documents point to their home folders on the file server which is on a raid controller. I then have an external raid array on the same file server that rsyncs with the home folders nightly. I also backup some etc folders from various other Linux boxes also using rsync and ssh. I then have an external server at another location that rsync's with the external backup raid array for added security. I am replacing tapes as they are unreliable and cumbersome. What i liked about tapes was having a rotation of say 3 or 5 days so files at different iterations could be recovered. I want to mimic this with the above setup.
The root directory of the external array where all the rsyncing is taking place I thought I would turn the entire thing into a git repository and using gitbak + metastore + some cron scripts (to keep metadata) I could then in effect have the same kind of features as multiple tapes in a nice versioned system.Questions...
1. Is this the best way to do this?
2. What about git reps inside of the git "file system"?
3. How much overhead can I expect from having to keep versions of everything?
4. Building off 3 is there a way to remove old revisions for instance only having the last 5 days of changes?

somebody please tell me whether it would be all right to install xp inside CentOS using VMware or it's better to do vice versa if it is ok to install xp inside centos then at the beginning when i install centos should i allocate all hard disk to this OS and later give some to xp , or initially i should keep some space for xp and install centos in the rest ?

I am not able to access Amazon's Look Inside - the facility to inspect a few pages of books. (I have never been able to do this.) I have tried both at work (via a direct connection to a high-speed backbone) and at home (via Sky ISP). I can see the cover of the book but nothing beyond that - it says the page has expired or is invalid. But using Firefox on WinXP, I can access Look Inside happily both at home and at work.
Does anyone else have this problem with Ubuntu? Amazon's technical people just sent me a load of flannel blaming my ISP, my software, etc. They say no one else has raised this.
If somebody could try it and let me know, I'd be grateful for the results. Am I missing a plug-in?
Lucid + Firefox 3.6.3 on both sites

I have my HDD in 3 partitions. 1 has Ubuntu 10.10, the 2nd has XP Pro, and the 3rd is a generic FAT 32 for all my music, photos, docs, etc. I was wondering if it was possible to run my XP Pro partition from within my Ubuntu partition so I am not constantly booting to and from XP to perform JUST a quick simple task. I installed Virtual Box OSE from the software center but it looks like it only runs .ISO images.

During two instances now I have had to create a .js file in a folder. In one instance, (POLIPO) I can create the file, I just cannot save it. I have momentarily forgotten the error message stating why. In the second instance, I have to create a user.js file inside my Firefox folder to allow cut/copy/paste functionality in order to fully utilize an internet forum. I have a Windows desktop at home and used URL...to "fix" Firefox. My laptop, however, needs to have the same capabilities and is running Ubuntu 9.04, fully updated, and Firefox 3.0.17, fully updated.
In short, I would like to know how to have complete control over functions such as "create file" EVERY time I want to. Is this a permission issue? I have only one user on the Ubuntu box. Also, how can I modify Firefox to allow for cut/copy/paste in the Mozilla Rich Text Editor?I am new to using Linux, so a minor spoonfeeding may be required.

How can I search for one 6 letter word throughout all of my Ubuntu files?
Sounds simple but I've not found what I'm looking for. The bottom line is that I am wanting to clean up a file association in mime. I would have had more success if I were searching for this under XP. I must be doing something wrong.
Since I trialled a commercial company's map product under Wine somewhere in my system is still their name. Any gpx file I choose to download and the company's name appears in properties. Ggx files are also associated with Wine whilst an untainted PC in the house just has "Browse" as an "open with" option.
First things first, how do I find and delete this commercial company's name totally from any part of my system? How do I find their name in one or more of my files?

How do I use "chmod" command so that it allows me to write a file inside a certain directory ? This directory has permissions in the formdrwxr-xr-xOnce I try to write a file there, it says "Permission denied" ! Don't advise to use "sudo", since the file is created by some executable program compiled from a source code. If I was creating the file myself, I wouldn't have gone to this forum.

I installed Ubuntu 10.04 inside VMware Player running in a WinXP SP 2 host. But Ubuntu can't seem to get any keyboard input. This means I can't even log in, as I can't type the password. I clicked in the VMware window, and tried pressing Ctrl+G etc, but to no avail. Anyone else encountered this issue?
