<br />
I'm having the most frustrating time trying to connect to FTP servers in order to upload files. I try to connect to a number of different FTP servers and cannot connect to any of them.<br />
<br />
I've tried connecting to the same servers using the same FTP programs on a second machine and it has no issues at all.<br />
<br />
I've done ping and tracert tests on the machine with the issues and the internet connection is definitely NOT the problem. I've looked at network settings but with my little knowledge about networks I've not been able to see if there are any issues. Both PCs have the same network setup so I doubt it's a network issue.<br />
<br />
I'm at a loss, anyone come across a similar issue?</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<title>News Story White House Site Switches to Drupal</title>

			<description>The Associated Press reported (http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5iuRIVBTLUvW7823FC-fcfhvkSxHgD9BHLF180) this weekend that the official White House website (http://www.whitehouse.gov/) has been switched to using the open-source Drupal content management system

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>The Associated Press <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5iuRIVBTLUvW7823FC-fcfhvkSxHgD9BHLF180" target="_blank">reported</a> this weekend that the <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/" target="_blank">official White House website</a> has been switched to using the open-source Drupal content management system<br />
<br />
Using open source will result in improved security -- because more programmers will be looking for errors in the software -- as well as more quickly and less expensively updated, the AP said.<br />
<br />
The White House site had been using technology held over from the administration of former President George W. Bush, but the staff had been working toward the transition since the inauguration. For example, the <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.recovery.gov/Pages/home.aspx" target="_blank">website that tracks stimulus spending</a>, launched in February, was already <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://drupal.org/node/375843" target="_blank">built</a> using Drupal.<br />
<br />
Several other federal agencies, such as the Department of Defense, the Department of Commerce, the Department of Education, and the General Service Administration, are also <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://buytaert.net/whitehouse-gov-using-drupal" target="_blank">said</a> to be using Drupal.<br />
<br />
However, modifications made by the White House staff, such as to improve security, have not thus far been given back to the Drupal community, noted Tim O'Reilly in his <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://radar.oreilly.com/2009/10/whitehouse-switch-drupal-opensource.html" target="_blank">blog</a>.  &quot;The source code for Drupal (and the rest of the LAMP stack) is indeed available, but the modifications that were made to meet government security, scalability, and hosting requirements have not yet been shared,&quot; he said.</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hi friends,<br />
                 I have installed ubuntu 9.04 in that  i have install DRBL package installtion is done correctly but when i run  LANG=C sudo /opt/drbl/sbin/drblsrv -i<br />
it gives <br />
*****************************************************.<br />
Hint! When a &quot;yes or no&quot; option is available, the default value is uppercase. E.g. (y/N) the default is &quot;N&quot;, so when you press &quot;Enter&quot; without typing &quot;Y or N&quot; it will be as if you typed &quot;N&quot; and then &quot;Enter&quot;. If you are not sure which option to choose just press &quot;Enter&quot; key.<br />
*****************************************************.<br />
*****************************************************.<br />
Installing DRBL for Debian Linux...<br />
*****************************************************.<br />
Do you want to install the network installation boot images so that you can let the client computer install some GNU/Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, RedHat Linux, Fedora Core, Mandriva, CentOS and OpenSuSE...) via a network connection?  !!NOTE!! This will download a lot of files (Typically &gt; 100 MB) so it might take a few minutes. If the client computer has a hard drive that you may install GNU/Linux onto, put a Y here. If you answer &quot;no&quot; here, you can run &quot;drbl-netinstall&quot; to install them later.<br />
[y/N] <br />
*****************************************************.<br />
This GNU/Linux distribution uses one kernel to support SMP and non-SMP arch.<br />
*****************************************************.<br />
Do you want to use the serial console output on the client computer(s)?<br />
If you do NOT know what to pick, say &quot;N&quot; here, otherwise the client computer(s) may show NOTHING on the screen!<br />
[y/N] <br />
*****************************************************.<br />
It's Ubuntu as server, so generic kernel is available.<br />
*****************************************************.<br />
Which CPU architecture kernel do you want to assign for the DRBL client computer(s)?<br />
0 -&gt; i386 CPU architecture<br />
1 -&gt; i586 CPU architecture<br />
2 -&gt; Use the same architecture as this DRBL server<br />
Note! Note Note! Note! Note! Note! Note!<br />
NOTE!!! If the client computer(s) is not the same architecture as this server, please pick &quot;0&quot; or &quot;1&quot;, otherwise your client computer(s) will NOT be able to boot.<br />
If you use wrong architecture type kernel, the glibc and openssl package might use i686 or i386 while the kernel might use i686, i586, or i386, which might be not suitable for all your computer(s).<br />
If you are not sure, &quot;1&quot; is recommended as this will still have good performance and compatibility.<br />

*****************************************************.<br />
The CPU arch option for your clients: 2<br />
The optimization for your system is set to be the same as this server computer.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I need your help to rewrite the URLs generated dynamically by a PHP photo album software.<br />
These are how the URLs currently show on the browser:<br />
<br />
index.php?page=list-image&amp;album=1 (The URL of &quot;album 1&quot; while I name the album &quot;Tropical Trees&quot;) and index.php?page=list-image&amp;album=2 (The URL of &quot;album 2 while the name might be something like &quot;Images In The Darkness&quot; or &quot;Beaches&quot;).<br />
<br />
I need help to make the above-mentioned &quot;album 1&quot; URL to be: &quot;Tropical_Trees/&quot; and other albums to be in this form. <br />
<br />
The following example is how the image URLs shows:<br />
index.php?page=image-detail&amp;album=1&amp;image=1 (The URL of &quot;image 1&quot; of &quot;album 1&quot; while I name this image &quot;Buddha Statue&quot;)<br />
<br />
I want the image URLs to be in this form: &quot;Tropical_Trees/Buddha_Statue/&quot;<br />
<br />
Can anyone please show me how to rewrite the album and image URLs in order to have search engine-friendly URLs. I have tried without success to achieve this. This is what I have done so far:<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>It was exactly one year ago today that I published my original &quot;<a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.daniweb.com/news/story219749.html" target="_blank">The 10 Best Linux Distributions</a>&quot; and it's time to put forth a new list for this year's best. Without looking at the old list, I've decided to compile this one from scratch. This 2009 list takes several factors into account for placement in the list: Community support, commercial support, software variety, update engine and distribution frequency. Even for old Linux salts, there are a few surprises on this list. For starters, Ubuntu is not number one.<br />
<br />
The problem with this list is that I don't hate any of the distros that I've entered here. Even number ten is one of my all time favorites but something has to be on top and something has to be on bottom. Check out the list and see what you think.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">1.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.gnewsense.org" target="_blank">gNewSense</a></span> - Ever since <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.daniweb.com/news/story228904.html" target="_blank">my conversation</a> with Richard Stallman, I've decided that gNewSense is the distro that claims the top spot for this year. Based on <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.ubuntu.com" target="_blank">Ubuntu</a>, which is based on <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.debian.org" target="_blank">Debian</a>, gNewSense contains only <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.daniweb.com/news/story227815.html" target="_blank">free software</a>. It's also the distro that Stallman himself uses--how can you beat that?<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">2.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.debian.org" target="_blank">Debian</a></span> - Debian is a GNU/Linux distribution that has it all: Great support, unsurpassed stability, awesome developers, a huge community, dozens of offspring including Ubuntu and gNewSense, regular updates, apt-get, thousands of ready-to-install programs and it makes a great user computer or server system. Debian also has the best hardware discovery of any distribution, which is probably why it's used to parent so many other distributions. If Debian has one weakness, it's commercial support. There's no Debian, Inc. for businesses to point to should something go awry. For businesses to adopt a particular distribution, it must have commercial support. For some, the risk is too great otherwise.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">3.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.ubuntu.com" target="_blank">Ubuntu</a></span> - Ubuntu picks up the slack where (don't confuse this with <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.slackware.com" target="_blank">SlackWare</a> which doesn't make the list this time.) Debian leaves off. Ubuntu offers <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://shop.canonical.com/index.php?cPath=31" target="_blank">commercial support</a>, albeit somewhat expensive support through <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.canonical.com" target="_blank">Canonical</a>, Ubuntu's commercial sponsor. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">4.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.centos.org" target="_blank">CentOS</a></span> - This distribution is <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.redhat.com" target="_blank">Red Hat</a> Enterprise Linux compiled from sources. It is still my personal distribution for my user/server computer. I do most of my testing on it. I use Debian for testing as well in virtual machines but they all ride on top of my CentOS computer. I spoke with Karanbir Singh, Project Lead of CentOS a few weeks ago and he gave some insight into the project that I had not heard or read before. <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/frugaltechshow/2009/09/25/Frugal-Friday-with-CentOS-Project-Lead-Karanbir-Singh" target="_blank">Listen</a> to the original podcast, if you get a chance.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">5.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.fedoraproject.org" target="_blank">Fedora</a></span> - Fedora is the community version supported by Red Hat, Inc. It is what we used to call Red Hat Linux. It's also the version of Linux that Richard Stallman says comes pretty close to being an all free distribution. If you can impress Stallman, you've done your job. Fedora is often a bit unstable because it is out on what some call the 'bleeding edge' and is for those who are a bit more on the adventurous side. Don't use it for production. For production purposes, use CentOS if you don't want to purchase a commercial Linux distribution. Just as a side note, this is one of the funniest true <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.centos.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=127" target="_blank">stories</a> I've ever read. It would still be funny if it weren't Oklahoma but since I live here, it makes it even better.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">6.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.redhat.com" target="_blank">Red Hat</a></span> - Short of being blessed by Richard Stallman or Linus Torvalds, how can you not love Red Hat? It was one of the first companies that bucked the Microsoft-only trend and gave it a go on Linux. It worked. Red Hat is the most profitable and successful Linux/Open Source/Free Software company in the world. It's very profitable and it keeps growing. It is one of three Linux distributions that ever makes its way into large companies as a supported operating system. <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.novell.com" target="_blank">SUSE</a> (Not on this list) and Ubuntu are the other two.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">7.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.gentoo.org" target="_blank">Gentoo</a></span> - Do you have a few free weekends and a need for something that goes ZOOM when you're done? Gentoo is for you, then. Gentoo is not for those who are wanting to download, burn and boot; it's for those who like to tinker, twist and fidget with something until it's perfect. If you want something that rocks, and is rock-solid when you're done, then you want Gentoo. Gentoo is the Harley-Davidson of the Linux world. It's cool. It's stable. It's hot. It's also a royal pain in your backside. If you're impatient, like me, keep moving and just appreciate Gentoo from afar.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">8.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.knoppix.org" target="_blank">Knoppix</a></span> - Yeah, Knoppix, baby. It's cool like that. Knoppix is one of those &quot;Show it, don't explain it&quot; distributions. If you want to try to explain Linux to someone, show them a Knoppix Live CD. They might never look at a Windows computer again. It's that good. If you have an old computer that won't handle a large hard drive, buy yourself a fast CD/DVD ROM drive and download, burn and boot Knoppix for your user computer. Save your documents and files to the 'too small for Linux' disk and never look back.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">9.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.prestomypc.com" target="_blank">Presto</a></span> - Got Windows but also want Linux? Get Presto. I <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.daniweb.com/news/story220501.html" target="_blank">installed</a> it on my netbook and I love it. When I'm in a hurry and just want to check email or make a <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.skype.com" target="_blank">Skype</a> call, I boot into Presto and get to work in about 15 seconds flat. It's the best $20 you'll ever spend.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">10.  <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.damnsmalllinux.org" target="_blank">Damn Small Linux</a></span> - Damn Small Linux (DSL) is the cool of cool in small distro land. In as little as 50MB, you can have a full Linux computer and in these days of operating system bloat; that's a real winner. DSL isn't just small but it has features you'd expect from larger distributions: Web, RDP, Terminal Services, SSH, productivity tools, SSH server and <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/applications.html" target="_blank">much more</a>. If I ran a company with more than just a handful of employees, it's likely that DSL is what I'd use for their user interface possibly as virtual desktops on a hypervisor system. If you haven't experienced DSL for yourself, you should. Download, burn and boot. It's impressive.<br />
<br />
If your favorite distro didn't make the cut, I'm sorry, maybe next time. Perhaps you can convince me to write up another list of my reader's favorites if you write back and tell me what they are.</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hello All,<br />
<br />
I have a problem, for which I need some guidance..... Here is the scenario.<br />
<br />
Internet --&gt; Router --&gt; [my required s/w ?!?!] --&gt; 3 web servers.<br />
<br />
the router which I have has limited capabilities. It can jus forward incoming requests only IP based, and not even to to any specific ports...So thats a bottleneck.<br />
<br />
To overcome this, I plan to use a very very minimal linux VM, that will take in requests from this router and forward to 3 or more web servers behind.<br />
<br />
my required s/w, functionality must be like this..<br />
if the incoming request is for...<br />
a.mysite.com goto ServerA at port x1<br />
b.mysite.com goto ServerA at port x2<br />
c.mysite.com goto ServerB at port x3<br />
.... so on...<br />
<br />
I hope u get an idea.<br />
<br />
Now, I am not an advanced user of Linux, and a networking expert either. So please be kind...<br />
<br />
I can do this with Apache vhosts thing, but I prefer to run separate apache servers, to avoid single point of failure.<br />
<br />
I was looking at these router and firewall linux distro's.... (very fascinating), to get my job done, but I don't think they have exactly what I look for....I tried (monowall, smoothwall, untangle, zeroshell..etc) or maybe, I didn't look at the right place.<br />
<br />
Or I was wondering if squid proxy wud do this job for me. If yes, I have no clue on how to write the directives...an example wud be gr8....<br />
<br />
If u have any better ideas, I am all ears....<br />
<br />
Thank You<br />
<br />
Antonio....</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>So i set out to do some rewrites today for a utility i'm building for people to use on their own servers. It involves generating dynamic images to be used on phpbb, but phpbb doesnt allow you to post images with any GET parameters or with a PHP extension. The workaround is passing them via a rewrite.<br />
<br />
I mostly have it figured out, but it isn't very friendly to moving around to new folders. I have no way to predict where a server admin will decide to install it.<br />
<br />
I've tried looking it up, but i've had trouble getting past this last hump.<br />
<br />
On my own server I even have a problem with it. My code is below, it is saved in server.com/subdomain/.htaccess<br />
<br />
I have a subdomain of subdomain.server.com mapped to server.com/subdomain<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
 <pre style="margin:20px; line-height:13px">RewriteRule ^dummyword/([A-Za-z0-9\-]+)/([A-Za-z0-9\-]+).png$ /dynamicpicture.php?parameter=$1&amp;otherparameter=$2 [R]</pre><br />
if I navigate to &quot;subdomain.server.com/dummyword/one/two.png&quot;<br />
i get forwarded correctly to &quot;subdomain.server.com/dynamicpicture.php?parameter=one&amp;otherparameter=$2&quot;<br />
<br />
if I skip the subdomain and go directly to the folder with &quot;server.com/subdomain/dummyword/one/two.png&quot; the rule doesnt pick it up and i 404.<br />
<br />
Since this is going to be going out to 5-10 other server operators everything before &quot;/dummyword....&quot; could be very random. One site has it nested down 4 directories....<br />
<br />
can anyone school me a little?</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hey<br />
I've got an old server in my basement and i want to host a forum on it. I know there are also online free forum hosting but i want to learn what i'm doing. I want to use this thread to ask for advice. Right now my plan is to install fedora on the server cause i use it as a desktop too and then start installing things like apache and php. And also make the server available on my local network so i can access it from my room instead of from the basement. I guess my first questions are<br />
- Is fedora a good OS to do this ?<br />
-What kind of software do i need to install for forum hosting ?<br />
-Would it be better to use the old server wich has 2 pentium 3 processors or my old pentium 4 pc?<br />
<br />
thx in advance</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>In its ongoing effort to become the coolest city in the U.S., the mayor of Portland, Oregon, is going to attempt <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://portlandoregon.gov/auditor/index.cfm?c=50265&amp;a=264719" target="_blank">tomorrow night</a> to make it an &quot;open source city,&quot; making its data as open as possible while respecting privacy, and buying open source applications when possible.<br />
<br />
If passed by the City Council, Mayor Sam Adams' proposal will have the following steps:<br />
<br />
&quot;a. Enter into agreements with our regional partners to publish and maintain public datasets that are open and freely available while respecting privacy and security concerns as identified by the City Attorney;<br />
b. Develop a strategy to adopt prevailing open standards for data, documents, maps, and other formats of media;<br />
c. Organize a regional contest to encourage the development of software applications to collect, organize, and share public data;<br />
d. Establish best practices for analysis of business requirements in software review and selection processes, identify existing commercial software systems with licenses that are scheduled to expire in the near future, and encourage the consideration of Open Source Software in the review, replacement and continual improvement of business solutions.&quot;<br />
<br />
As for carrots, the city is also hoping to encourage the lucrative conference industry to come to Portland; the proposal also suggests promoting &quot;Portland as a host city for leading Open Source Software conferences and related technology events, such as LinuxCon, Innotech, etc.&quot;<br />
<br />
In addition, all formal technology related purchasing and contract opportunities will be offered to the open source community, according to the proposed resolution.<br />
<br />
Adams first declared his intention of making Portland more open in June, during the Open Source Bridge conference. According to the <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://siliconflorist.com/2009/06/18/portland-mayor-sam-adams-portland-oregon-hub-open-source/" target="_blank">Silicon Florist</a> blog, this was a way of competing with Vancouver, B.C., Canada, which had announced in <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://vancouver.ca/ctyclerk/cclerk/20090519/documents/motionb2.pdf" target="_blank">May</a> its intention of doing the same thing.</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Since I check my linkbacks religiously, I noticed one of the comments over at <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.linsux.org" target="_blank">linsux.org</a> (An anti-Linux rant site) on my recent post, &quot;<a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.daniweb.com/news/story226405.html" target="_blank">5 Things You Can Do to Put Linux in the Driver Seat</a>&quot; and thought I would share one of the entries with you. He wants us Linux types to stop work on so many disparate distributions and focus on a single one. Is this a good idea or the best idea I've ever heard?<br />
<br />
He lists a few items, beginning strangely at #6, that he wants Linux fans to cease and desist on but the one that caught my attention is #10:<br />
<br />
<div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px; "> <div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">Quote:</div> <table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"> <tr> <td class="alt2"> <hr />  OEF (His site nickname)<br />
Stop making web press releases every time someone tosses a bunch of open-source crap and artwork onto a CD. &quot;Chuckie's Linux&quot; will not change the world. In fact, it further muddies the landscape. Pick a distro. Just ONE damned distro and work on improving it.  <hr /> </td> </tr> </table> </div>Wow, OEF, whoever you are; you have my vote for the Grand High Exalted Poobah of all that you survey in Open Source and Linux. I like the idea of a single distribution. It really simplifies everything.<br />
I love the idea of having a single distribution upon which to bestow our time and energies. <br />
<br />
The only problem I see with it is, which one are you gonna choose for THE distribution? Will it be <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.novell.com" target="_blank">SUSE</a>, <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.debian.org" target="_blank">Debian</a>, <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.redhat.com" target="_blank">Red Hat</a>, <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.gentoo.org" target="_blank">Gentoo</a>, or <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.slackware.com" target="_blank">Slackware</a>? Since it has to be a top-level distribution and not a derivative, it will have to be one of those--unless I've missed one.<br />
<br />
Let's examine those choices.<br />
<br />
Novell's SUSE Linux is a decent choice. It's well-supported, not that expensive, developed by some of the best programmers in the business but is a bit conservative for those leading-edge nerds.<br />
Debian is a wise choice since it is the GNU Linux distribution and not particularly partial to any platform or company.<br />
Red Hat is a great choice. One of the first commercial distributions, one of the best supported and most widely used distros in the IT world and is home to the most profitable of all Linux-based companies.<br />
Gentoo--I don't know--since you can have a Gentoo operating system based on either Linux or FreeBSD, this one leaves me a bit cold. Sure it's secure and cool with its Portage but let's face it, if we wanted a hybrid operating system, we could opt for Mac OS X.<br />
And, finally, we have Slackware. Poor, poor Slackware, I used to love you so but now your luster has faded in favor of the shinier, sexier Debian and Red Hat distros. Sorry Slackware, you just don't make the cut.<br />
<br />
So, really we have to choose from Red Hat, Debian and SUSE for a single distribution. We need to be able to point a finger at someone when things go wrong for businesses to feel comfortable enough to use Linux, and Debian doesn't have that, so that leaves us with just Red Hat and SUSE to choose from.<br />
<br />
Since I've had fewer bad experiences with Red Hat than with Novell, I'm going with Red Hat. Congratulations, Red Hat, you're now the one and only Linux distribution for the entire world! No one can make illegal copies of your software, in fact; no one can make any copies of your software, no one can take your software and create anything new from it because it's now basically proprietary and it no longer needs to be open source.<br />
You are the sole creator and maintainer of this, our only Linux distribution. Manufacturers will flock to you to create drivers to work with our, I mean, <span style="font-style:italic">your</span> distribution so that we may all enjoy the fruits of your labors.<br />
Of course, we can all still create third-party applications that work with your distribution but since you make the bulk of your own apps too, we might need to worry with that at all. Your office suite, programming suite, browser (oh you will create your own won't you?), gaming software, mapping software, web server and database server are the bomb and we love them all. We will only buy your products because no one else's have the same cool feature sets or 100% compatibility that we all need.<br />
You are our one stop shop for all our operating system and application software needs. Thanks Red Hat, for being THE one for everyone.<br />
<br />
I think I've heard this story somewhere before.</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>This is a plea to all hardware manufacturers: Please create Linux drivers for your hardware. OK, so Linux isn't the Stormin' Norman of the Desktop arena but that doesn't mean its users don't want or need drivers for hardware. I don't blame the kind volunteers that donate their time to program bits and pieces of the Linux kernel and associated programs but I do blame the hardware manufacturers for not supporting a huge user base of Linux users. I'm tired of it and it's time for action.<br />
<br />
Here's what we can do:<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">1.</span>  Any time you find a piece of hardware that doesn't have a Linux driver, write to the manufacturer and request that a Linux version become available for it.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">2. </span> Boycott any hardware that doesn't explicitly work with Linux.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">3. </span> Check hardware compatibility lists and only purchase hardware that does work with Linux.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">4. </span> Document your experiences with hardware successes and failures and post them to your blogs or notify me and I'll post them.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">5.</span>  Join the <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.linuxfoundation.org" target="_blank">Linux Foundation</a> or the community distribution network of your choice and contribute (time, money, resources) to the project.<br />
<br />
Collectively, we can put enough pressure on hardware manufacturers to supply Linux drivers for their hardware. It's in their best interest to do so.<br />
<br />
Manufacturers say that there isn't enough Linux deployed to justify spending resources on creating Linux drivers and potential business adopters say that without proper driver support, they'll never make the switch. So there you have it. A classic standoff. A stale mate. No one will <span style="font-style:italic">make</span> a move because no one <span style="font-style:italic">can</span> move.<br />
<br />
Join me in my new quest to convince hardware manufacturers to supply us with much needed Linux drivers.<br />
<br />
Write back and tell me if you've made any progress or received answers to your requests. I'll post them here in a future entry.</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hi everyone,<br />
<br />
I am not a server guru but have had to setup a dedicated server for a new website. Everything is going except that when I try to connect to it via HTTPS connection I get a 500 internal error page which basically means I don't know what is causing the problem.<br />
<br />
HTTP connection is fine and working but since the site will be processing payment information we need the HTTPS connection. <br />
<br />
The server is running on CentOS with me using cPanel 11 to admin it. The only solution that I have possible come across involves the httpd.conf file for apache. The solution says to add this <br />
<br />
&lt;IfDefine SSL&gt;<br />
Listen 80<br />
Listen 443<br />
&lt;/IfDefine&gt;<br />
<br />
Although using cPanel I'm not sure where (preMain, preVirtual, postVirtual) to add this or if I shoudl even be adding it.<br />
<br />
Can anyone shed any light on this?<br />
<br />
Thanks guys,<br />
<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Linus Torvalds, creator of the Linux kernel, said at the <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/linuxcon" target="_blank">LinuxCon</a> in Portland yesterday that, &quot;We are not the streamlined, small, hyper-efficient kernel I envisioned 15 years ago,&quot; he said. &quot;Our kernel is huge and bloated. Whenever we add a new feature, it only gets worse.&quot; It's time to put Linux on a diet. What we need is a very small kernel that loads support via external files. Though Linux is a modular kernel, it seems that everything gets compiled in to the central code slug but I have a solution.<br />
<br />
Instead of making the kernel impossibly huge and compiling in support for device X and peripheral Y, let's move support for all devices to XML files and just have the kernel read the ones we want. No recompiling. No derivative works in the kernel. And no <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://oreilly.com/catalog/opensources/book/appa.html" target="_blank">debate</a> needed between Tannenbaum and Torvalds over microkernels vs monolithic kernels.<br />
<br />
Move support for everything to a directory or special filesystem, like /proc, where all of the necessary XML files reside. The kernel picks them up and uses them with no changes to the kernel and no kernel bloat required. Now, I have to tell you that IANAP (I am not a Programmer) by any stretch of the imagination but it seems to me that this would have been something that others would have thought up before now.<br />
I'm a long-time user of Linux, an early adopter and the founder of the local Linux User's Group back in 1996. The first meeting of that LUG was spent on teaching others how to recompile their kernel so that they could add or remove support for devices and peripherals.<br />
This was, and is, a totally unnecessary activity. Recompiling a kernel should be reserved for very rare circumstances.<br />
<br />
Admittedly, I haven't recompiled a kernel in at least four years. I just deal with what I'm given at this point. I no longer have the energy or the time it takes to recompile and recompile and recompile until I get it just so.<br />
<br />
So, to Linus and the other kernel maintainers: What do you think? Can we make this work? Pull out all of the kernel bloat and make it cafeteria style.<br />
<br />
I wonder if Andrew Tannenbaum would like this idea?<br />
<br />
What do you think of my plan to truly modularize and right size the kernel? Write back and let me know.</div> ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Today I'm pondering if the current open source model is still valid or if it's outdated. Do we need licensing for open source software? Do we need the GPL, LGPL, APL and all the <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical" target="_blank">other licenses</a> that plague...er, <span style="font-style:italic">grace</span> us? If your software is free and open source, why bother with a license at all? The software writer owns the copyright so why put users or potential users through the paces of licensing? What exactly is to be gained by creating and enforcing a license for this kind of software?<br />
<br />
Currently, there are 64 active licenses listed on the <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.opensource.org" target="_blank">Open Source Initiative's</a> (OSI) website and more are pending approval. 64 licenses is more than just a little ridiculous.<br />
<br />
Seriously, you're telling me that the people who keep coming up with license ideas can't use one of the existing ones? The ones who read through the 63 other licenses looked at each other and said, &quot;Nope, these just won't do--we need to come up with our own license.&quot;<br />
<br />
Take a look at the OSI's <a rel="nofollow" class="t" href="http://www.opensource.org/docs/osd" target="_blank">Open Source Definition</a> and then ask yourself if you find licensing a necessity or a frivolous exercise:<br />
<br />
<div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px; "> <div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">Quote:</div> <table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"> <tr> <td class="alt2"> <hr />  Open source doesn't just mean access to the source code. The distribution terms of open-source software must comply with the following criteria:<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">1. Free Redistribution</span><br />
The license shall not restrict any party from selling or giving away the software as a component of an aggregate software distribution containing programs from several different sources. The license shall not require a royalty or other fee for such sale.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">2. Source Code</span><br />
The program must include source code, and must allow distribution in source code as well as compiled form. Where some form of a product is not distributed with source code, there must be a well-publicized means of obtaining the source code for no more than a reasonable reproduction cost preferably, downloading via the Internet without charge. The source code must be the preferred form in which a programmer would modify the program. Deliberately obfuscated source code is not allowed. Intermediate forms such as the output of a preprocessor or translator are not allowed.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">3. Derived Works</span><br />
The license must allow modifications and derived works, and must allow them to be distributed under the same terms as the license of the original software.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">4. Integrity of The Author's Source Code</span><br />
The license may restrict source-code from being distributed in modified form only if the license allows the distribution of &quot;patch files&quot; with the source code for the purpose of modifying the program at build time. The license must explicitly permit distribution of software built from modified source code. The license may require derived works to carry a different name or version number from the original software.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">5. No Discrimination Against Persons or Groups</span><br />
The license must not discriminate against any person or group of persons.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">6. No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor</span><br />
The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">7. Distribution of License</span><br />
The rights attached to the program must apply to all to whom the program is redistributed without the need for execution of an additional license by those parties.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">8. License Must Not Be Specific to a Product</span><br />
The rights attached to the program must not depend on the program's being part of a particular software distribution. If the program is extracted from that distribution and used or distributed within the terms of the program's license, all parties to whom the program is redistributed should have the same rights as those that are granted in conjunction with the original software distribution.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">9. License Must Not Restrict Other Software</span><br />
The license must not place restrictions on other software that is distributed along with the licensed software. For example, the license must not insist that all other programs distributed on the same medium must be open-source software.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">10. License Must Be Technology-Neutral</span><br />
No provision of the license may be predicated on any individual technology or style of interface.  <hr /> </td> </tr> </table> </div>As you read through those ten criteria, would you think that a license is even useful? I personally do not.<br />
<br />
If you're going to create something that is free and open source, don't restrict it with some bogus licensing scheme; just give it away and retain the copyright so that no one can reproduce your hard work without at least an acknowledgement of that work as yours.<br />
In my opinion, as soon as you slap a license on something, you can no longer call it <span style="font-weight:bold">open</span>. Putting a restriction on something that you're allowing unrestricted access and use to is just silly.<br />
<br />
And, if I buy a piece of software, I don't have to accept the license before I shell out the money for it. I have to accept the End User License Agreement (EULA) prior to installation but do I get my money back if I don't agree with the license?<br />
<br />
What purpose do any of these 64 licenses serve? What do they afford me as an end user of the software? What do they do for the software owner?<br />
<br />
I think licensing, in general, is stupid and pointless. It serves no real purpose for the software writer(s) nor does it help the software user. I've heard all the wailing and gnashing of teeth against software patents but none against licenses.<br />
<br />
What are your thoughts on the subject? Write back and let me know.</div> ]]></content:encoded>

I tested it by outlook., pop3 works but smtp shows error.<br />
So I have 2 questions:<br />
1. How do I check my mails by outlook?<br />
2. I also want to check my mails by accessing webbased mail from anywhere and at anytime for example: squirrelmail ...etc  <br />
How do I combine squirrelmail or other webbased mail software with postfix?</div> ]]></content:encoded>
