Hi I am bran new to this website so sorry if this was already asked but I looked and I couldn't find it so I want to know how I can install java on Linux like the topic description said I am using Google chrome (I don't know if that makes a difference) and I am also using Ubuntu I am the biggest noob ever I didn't even know how to install Linux on my computer my brother had to so the more information you can give me the better.

I have recently replaced Slackware Linux 10.1 with 13.1 and I am experiencing a local remote networking issue over FTP. When I am transfering data over a local route, whether it is to or from the server, the connection stops - all data transfer drops to 0.0k/sec, and even SSH locks out remote access when this occurs. I can still use the local machine in all its functions, but I cannot reconnect via FTP or SSH until I reboot the server.

 

I have tried to find a reason why this is occuring and I cannot. Transfer speeds are relatively healthy - 50-65 megabytes per second writing to the server and 60-90 megabytes per second reading data from it. If I throttle the transfer speed, it still times out regardless.

 

My local backup dumps over FTP to the server without locking up. I can retrieve from the FTP through the backup software as well without an issue. Yet still, direct FTP transfer using FlashFXP to ProFTP drops and locks out remote connections.

 

The only error I can find is in the ProFTPD log:

Jul 09 18:10:32 raven proftpd[1911] localhost (192.168.x.x[192.168.x.x]): USER <hiddenuser>: Login successful.

Jul 09 18:29:00 raven proftpd[1911] localhost (192.168.x.x[192.168.x.x]): sendfile transmission aborted

Jul 09 18:29:31 raven proftpd[1911] localhost (192.168.x.x[192.168.x.x]): notice: user <hiddenuser>: aborting transfer: Unknown error 4294967295

Jul 09 18:31:29 raven proftpd[1911] localhost (192.168.x.x[192.168.x.x]): Client session idle timeout, disconnected

Jul 09 18:31:29 raven proftpd[1911] localhost (192.168.x.x[192.168.x.x]): FTP session closed.

 

This error appears in the logs prior to locking out remote access, but I have yet to find out what the flux is causing it!

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just came across a topic I never really thought much of, but then I started playing around

with it and it was quite fun. I now have my thunderbird setup using pgp encryption, so I can

send encrypted emails. I thought it was quite fun to play with, I mostly understand it now.

I thought of making a how to here but the explanation/how to I found on the internet couldn't have

been written better in my opinion that is. Check it here

I'm just wondering how many people here use pgp encryption?

Hi Everyone,

 

I wanted to get with a group of Linux people that can help me get with this OS. I am an IT Guy, but I started taking class at ITT to get an actual degree and this quarter I have my fist Linux class. So I have a administrator level of knowledge when it comes to Microsoft, and a user level of knowledge when it comes to Mac. When it comes to Linux, I am at square one: running into all the noob issues (like: Where is the Device Manager? & How do I get a driver for my wireless network adapter?).

 

Anyways, looking forward to chatting some Linux with you all.

 

Thank you,

Digital Daemon

Here's my new Desktop with Fedora15. Gnome3. Kind reminds me a bit of mac osx.

What do you think? I like fedora better as a desktop then centos, but I still

need to get used to the new look of gnome.

I have a wireless net between an outbuilding and my house. The ISP service comes into the WAN port of a router in the out building. A WiFi bridge in the house connects to the external router, the bridge is connected to the WAN port of a second router which creates the internal home network.

 

Inside the house on the internal network I have a Linux appliance with an attached USB drive for storage. It supports SSH but not FTP (and no repos to pull additional protocols from, so adding software requires compiling or hacking).

 

I have forwarded port 22 (soon to change) through my internal router to the appliance. From a workstation on the outside network in the out building, I can open a remote terminal on the appliance using

"shh <exteral_IP_of_inside_router> -l <username>", but using the same parameters and the FISH (FIle transfer over secure SHell) in Krusader returns "Error: Could not enter folder". Krusader (and WinSCP) connect to the appliances storage fine on workstations on the internal network.

 

I've also discovered that both SCP and WinSCP via WINE can access the appliance across the inside router, but with widely fluctuating transmission speeds and dropped connections.

I know that CentOS is just a Redhat clone with all the redhat stuff stripped off. I've read quite a bit of

different opinions over the internet when it comes to centos vs redhat. I'm just wondering what the opinions

and experiences are of the members on this forum? :)

I don't know if you already know this website, but if you work in the IT you have got to see this:

then go to videos :)(start with episode 1) First time I watched these videos I couldn't stop laughing :)

 

 

Enjoy!!!

Hello all! I'm getting ready to move into a new house and am seriously contemplating setting up a spare Dell box I have as a Linux based home file and media server. My question is this: Which distribution do you recommend most for this? I need something that can serve up documents, ripped movies and music, and possibly act as a secure gateway/firewall for my home network. It would be accessed by my PS3 and two Windows machines. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated :)
