| 15:47 | <adamg> | wasnt that fun |
| 15:47 | <rekca> | Is apache server already installed? |
| 15:47 | <schweeb> | orkut shows you one of the disadvantages to working at google |
| 15:47 | <adamg> | depends on the distro |
| 15:48 | <schweeb> | they own whatever you make while working there |
| 15:48 | <rekca> | I type rpm -qa | grep httpd |
| 15:48 | <adamg> | yep part of the contract, a know a few companies like that |
| 15:48 | <rekca> | I got some line indicating that HTTPD server is already installed |
| 15:49 | <rekca> | Mysql and php was too |
| 15:49 | <schweeb> | adamg: but you are actually allocated like 1/5 of your work week to work on your own projects |
| 15:49 | <rekca> | But where is the htdocs folder of apache? |
| 15:49 | <schweeb> | /var/www ? |
| 15:49 | <adamg> | that is good, but the major downside is that they own it |
| 15:50 | <rekca> | Why i cant type http://127.0.0.1 in the Mozilla browser |
| 15:51 | <@caker> | rekca: which distro did you install? |
| 15:51 | <rekca> | Anyone can tell me how to access to my httpd server through browser |
| 15:52 | <rekca> | I chose linode 128, Linux redhat large |
| 15:52 | <@caker> | 9.0? |
| 15:52 | <@caker> | ok |
| 15:52 | <@caker> | is apache running? |
| 15:53 | <rekca> | When i try to access localhost |
| 15:53 | <rekca> | it wont work |
| 15:53 | <@caker> | well, apache probbaly isn't running .. try: /etc/init.d/httpd start |
| 15:54 | <@caker> | and then type your IP into your browser :) |
| 15:55 | <rekca> | the htdocs of the apache is /var/www ? |
| 15:55 | <rekca> | isnt it? |
| 15:55 | <@caker> | Yes |
| 15:55 | <@tjfontaine> | or /var/www/html |
| 15:56 | <rekca> | I already have 1 domain |
| 15:56 | <rekca> | How can I set it |
| 15:57 | <rekca> | so that It will point to my IP |
| 15:58 | <@caker> | rekca: zoneedit.com |
| 15:59 | <@mikegrb> | tjfontaine: !!! |
| 15:59 | <@mikegrb> | tjfontaine: add orkut |

| 15:59 | <rekca> | what is it ? |
| 15:59 | <@mikegrb> | tjfontaine: what domain should I send the invitation to? |
| 15:59 | <@tjfontaine> | atx |
| 15:59 | <rekca> | I think that I need to confiigure my domain DNS ? |
| 16:00 | <rekca> | what can I do in zoneedit.com? |
| 16:00 | <@caker> | rekca: if you want to run your own DNS on your Linode, then yes, otherwise, the easier solution is to use zoneedit.com -- they provide free DNS for up to five domains |
| 16:00 | <@mikegrb> | should have email now |
| 16:01 | <@tjfontaine> | oh thats the google friends thing |
| 16:02 | <adamg> | it is googles way of making money |
| 16:03 | <@mikegrb> | tjfontaine: the invitation got bounced to me |
| 16:03 | <@tjfontaine> | no it didn't |
| 16:03 | <@mikegrb> | well |
| 16:04 | <@mikegrb> | I hit b in mutt and bounced the bounce to you :p |

| 16:08 | <rekca> | how to set up FTP in my linode? |
| 16:08 | <schweeb> | hey look, heidi is in orkut too :p |
| 16:10 | <@caker> | rekca: the same way you setup ftp on a linux box |
| 16:10 | <schweeb> | rekca: you might want to look in the forums, or check google |

| 16:27 | <rekcah> | They told me to change my name server of my registar |
| 16:27 | <rekcah> | I already did it |
| 16:27 | <rekcah> | But how can my domain name know that it should point to my IP? |
| 16:32 | <schweeb> | you have to go to the place where you registered your domain name, and change your authoritative DNS servers to zoneedit |
| 16:33 | <adamg> | and then register for zoneedit and add the domain and then point the relevant records to your linode IP |
| 16:35 | <rekcah> | Can I remove HTTPD and php to install the newer version? |
| 16:36 | <adamg> | if you want to |
| 16:39 | <rekcah> | where is the config file of my apache server? |

| 16:42 | <rekcah> | ok, final question :) |
| 16:43 | <rekcah> | What is the folder containing the scripts that will be executed when the server starts? |
| 16:44 | <adamg> | . /etc/init.d |
| 16:51 | <@caker> | rekcah: you can also run ntsysv |
| 16:54 | <risto> | the only thing ran when system boots is /sbin/init, location of scripts may vary ;-) |
| 16:55 | <@caker> | :) |

| 18:38 | <Quik> | i guess that's a relatively good thing :) |
| 18:38 | <Quik> | i'm still so impressed with all this |
| 18:39 | <Quik> | it's such a stable environment yet you know it shouldn't be because of the number of people with which you share |
| 18:39 | <@mikegrb> | heh |
| 18:39 | <@mikegrb> | well uml is a great technology |
| 18:39 | <schweeb> | and considering that some of them run gentoo @_@ |
| 18:39 | <Quik> | :) |
| 18:39 | <@mikegrb> | and thanks to chris not over selling resources on the servers linode is a great uml platfrom |
| 18:40 | * | Quik fluffles caker |
| 18:42 | <Quik> | mikegrb - have you noticed me creeping up the ranks of g7? ;) |
| 18:42 | <Quik> | from 30th to 6th |
| 18:43 | <heidi> | good job Quik' |
| 18:43 | <heidi> | -' |
| 18:44 | <Quik> | :) |
| 18:44 | <heidi> | by the way /me = wife of mikegrb |
| 18:44 | <heidi> | in case you didn't know |
| 18:44 | <@mikegrb> | Quik: ;) |
| 18:45 | <schweeb> | she's not a geek though |
| 18:45 | <heidi> | heh |
| 18:45 | <heidi> | nope |
| 18:45 | <schweeb> | :P |
| 18:46 | <Quik> | first husband and wife i've seen on IRC with two different nicknames in a long time! |
| 18:46 | <schweeb> | that you have the ability to use IRC tells us worlds though :p |
| 18:46 | <@mikegrb> | heh |
| 18:46 | <@mikegrb> | and requested linux on her laptop |
| 18:46 | <@mikegrb> | and decided to learn python on her own |
| 18:46 | <@mikegrb> | etc |
| 18:47 | <heidi> | heh |
| 18:47 | <heidi> | mikegrb taught me to use irc |
| 18:47 | <heidi> | it isn't hard |
| 18:48 | <schweeb> | but you learned python and use linux, that's geekiness :P |
| 18:49 | <heidi> | I didn't learn python |
| 18:49 | <heidi> | mikegrb is supposed to give me lessons and hasn't |
| 18:49 | <schweeb> | ahh. |
| 18:49 | <schweeb> | so she's a wannabe geek. |
| 18:49 | <schweeb> | gotcha |
| 18:49 | <@mikegrb> | well she found a book online |
| 18:49 | <@mikegrb> | newbie guide to python |
| 18:49 | <@mikegrb> | printed the whole sucker out |
| 18:49 | <schweeb> | i use perl myself |
| 18:50 | <heidi> | so does mikegrb |
| 18:50 | <schweeb> | i'm a sysadmin, so that's about all i need to know atm, really |
| 18:50 | <heidi> | and in my defense wen I printed the book, it looked like only one page per chapter |
| 18:50 | <heidi> | cause that is what the printer said |
| 18:50 | <heidi> | but it was more like 20 pages per chapter |
| 18:50 | <schweeb> | i guess i know java 3 months at a time too |
| 18:50 | <heidi> | heh |
| 18:51 | <heidi> | mikegrb knows a lot of other languages kind of |
| 18:51 | <heidi> | but is fluent in perl |
| 18:51 | <schweeb> | forget it during work term, and relearn during school |
| 18:51 | <heidi> | heh |
| 18:51 | <heidi> | yeah |
| 18:51 | <schweeb> | well, I guess same with perl, but opposite |
| 18:52 | <heidi> | heh |
| 18:53 | <@mikegrb> | heidi ssh'es abd uses irssi too |
| 18:53 | <schweeb> | with screen? |
| 18:53 | <@mikegrb> | indeed |
| 18:53 | <Quik> | she's not a geek? |
| 18:53 | <heidi> | no |
| 18:53 | <@mikegrb> | she says she isn't |
| 18:53 | <heidi> | just a geeks wife |
| 18:53 | <Quik> | neither am i then :) |
| 18:53 | <heidi> | heh |
| 18:53 | <@mikegrb> | she is slowly getting there |
| 18:53 | <@mikegrb> | soon she won't be able to deny it |
| 18:54 | <schweeb> | one guy I know's wife uses a Model M |
| 18:54 | <schweeb> | that boggles my mind. |
| 18:54 | <heidi> | just because I am trying to show interst in what my husband does does not make me a geek |
| 18:55 | <heidi> | s/interst/interest? |
| 18:55 | <heidi> | argh |
| 18:55 | <heidi> | I can't type tonight |
| 18:56 | <Quik> | she has you there mike |
| 18:56 | <heidi> | heh |
| 18:56 | <heidi> | thank you |
| 18:57 | <schweeb> | yea, but if he took up cooking and cleaning we'd call him a woman </sexism> |
| 18:57 | <heidi> | no |
| 18:57 | <heidi> | and that would never happen |
| 18:57 | <heidi> | L) |
| 18:57 | <heidi> | :) |
| 18:57 | <@mikegrb> | pwahaha |
| 18:59 | <heidi> | hmm |
| 19:00 | <schweeb> | ugh. this You Got Served movie has the potentioal to be the worst movie since Bring It On |
| 19:01 | <@mikegrb> | heh |
| 19:02 | <adamg> | Bring It On is good for 4 in the morning when you are trying to get work done and need to watch something |
| 19:02 | <schweeb> | or when you wanna watch chicks in cheerleader uniforms. that's about it |
| 19:02 | <adamg> | along with clueless and legally blond |
| 19:03 | <heidi> | I personally liked bring it on |
| 19:03 | <heidi> | and clueless and legally blond |
| 19:03 | <adamg> | I dont mind them |
| 19:04 | <@mikegrb> | pwahaha |
| 19:04 | <adamg> | havnt watched them in a while |
| 19:13 | <schweeb> | adamg: and your eyes and mind thank you for that |
| 19:13 | <adamg> | they are not that bad |
| 19:14 | <adamg> | sometime I like that type of movie |
| 19:14 | <heidi> | thank you |
| 19:14 | <adamg> | same as sometime I like to watch films like rambo and the godfather |
| 19:15 | <heidi> | I don't |
| 19:15 | <heidi> | but that is just a personal preference |
| 19:15 | <heidi> | I am not much for violence |
| 19:16 | <adamg> | I tend to watch any type of movie |
| 19:16 | <heidi> | hmm |
| 19:16 | <adamg> | if I dont like it, I wont watch it again |
| 19:16 | <@mikegrb> | s/sometime/somtimes/ |
| 19:17 | <adamg> | are you going to correct all the spelling mistakes I make |

| 23:15 | <ElfStone> | where did you take it? |
| 23:15 | <schweeb> | I decided it was a better idea to go to college, than to continue in HS at the vocational center |
| 23:15 | <ElfStone> | i can not find anywhere that has it save 2 highschools and a ged center |
| 23:16 | <ElfStone> | in my area |
