webmasters.com web hosting

by Brett Russ

Anyone have any experience with http://www.webmasters.com? I am considering transferring from logicinternet.com, the services promised by the former are seemingly much better, so I am looking for some local testimonials. thanks! Brett

Virtual Hosting

by jose sanchez

Hello All: I am experiencing a weird problem with Name based virtual hosting with apache. I don't know if I am doing this correctly. The webserver is behind a firewall that is NATing traffic to it. I have three domain names, example: domain1.com, domain2.com, and domain3.com. I have the registrar of the domains forwarded to my external ip (24.31.xx.xx). The webserver's ip is 192.168.2.50. This is what the http.conf file looks like: NameVirtualHost 192.168.2.50 <VirtualHost 192.168.2.50> ServerName www.domain1.com ServerAdmin wilsan816(a)yahoo.com DocumentRoot /home/domain1/www </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost 192.168.2.50> ServerName www.domain2.com ServerAdmin wilsan816(a)yahoo.com DocumentRoot /home/domain2/www </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost 192.168.2.50> ServerName www.domain3.com ServerAdmin wilsan816(a)yahoo.com DocumentRoot /home/domain3/www </VirtualHost> Somehow the virtual hosting is not working. When I type www.domain2.com or www.domain3.com on the browser I get the content or pages of domain1.com. I don't know why is doing that. When I type www.domain1.com, obviously works. Now, the address bar changes from www.domainx.com to 24.31.xx.xx/index.php. The registrar where the domains are registered doesn't offer free "Domain Masking" (when the domain name stays on the browser' address bar). I don't know if this is why I am having this problem. If anyone have experienced this before please let me know.

I believe they are separate.

Also, instinct tells me that if there's any kind of "power management" blanking, it would work regardless of what video mode I'm in. (And with an LCD, there's no way to really tell the difference between a blank screen, and power saving.) > Any chance you're running X in frame buffer mode? Maybe then the VT > blanking matters? Just a shot in the dark. Nope, straight up XFree86 to the hardware. Really all I need is more ways to turn off screen blanking in Linux and/or X. I'll try 'em all and report which one actually worked for me. ;) But I've exhausted (I think) setterm and xset. What else is there? -Chuck

I thought that the VT blanking was separate from the X blanking. Any chance you're running X in frame buffer mode? Maybe then the VT blanking matters?

Currently it's afterstep, but I don't think the WM is a factor because it happens when I'm using no WM at all (Hardcore X) or at the VT or anything. I was grepping some kernel sources which led me to the setterm hypothesis, but I'm still nowhere. -Chuck _______________________________________________ Wlug mailing list Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug

Re: [Wlug] Booting!

by Charles R. Anderson

If you installed your distribution's packages of Apache and Postgres, or other well-packaged software, it is as simple as: chkconfig httpd on chkconfig postgresql on And you can use the service command to start/stop them at any time too: service httpd start (or stop, status, restart, reload, etc.) This is all done through the magic of SysV-style initscripts: /etc/init.d /etc/rc*.d and on Red Hat systems, this is documented in: /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysvinitfiles On Mon, Feb 03, 2003 at 03:27:47AM +0700, Aramico wrote: aramico> How can i make these things run automatically at first time of My linux boot aramico> up. -- Charles R.

in my distribution /etc/rc.local is executed at startup I would simply add those lines to that file: apachectl start su james -c "/home/james/tomcat/bin/startup.sh" su postgres -c "/var/lib/pgsql/runpgsql" best wishes, baris On Mon, 3 Feb 2003 03:27:47 +0700 "Aramico" <aramico(a)duahati.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > How can i make these things run automatically at first time of My linux boot > up. > > 1. apachectl start > Run as root > 2. /home/james/tomcat/bin/startup.sh > run as user james > 3. /var/lib/pgsql/runpgsql > run as postgres > > Thanks.
