PeterJames Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Would I need oraclewin if I can embed Vserver in Wine or Zorin?

PeterJames Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 James what do you know about ubuntu samba and webmin?
james.wilson Posted December 28, 2012 Author Posted December 28, 2012 ubuntu is a linux distribution samba is the linux smb server to be used for file sharing in a windows environment webmin is a web management too for the system. Good when your learning but of little use long term. i used to use webmin years ago now im a command line man. Putty is a godsend If you want stable server for use in a windows enviroment use sme. I highly rate it. For something you want to customise use either ubuntu LTS or centos, depending on how bleeding edge you want to be. I only used to use centos for my dvrs but i do quite like ubuntu LTS. Id rather use sme but its very hard to make it do things other than its feature set. SME is the most stable thing ive ever used. Very hardened. I use it for all normal server duties. Yours has been ok hasnt it? securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
PeterJames Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 I thought I would start off with something a little less hard core though I do like putty now I finally got it working when I loaded ubuntu it didnt load sshserver even though I had ticked the box for it. So Icouldnt get putty to work. I had though about SME but I couldnt find what I was sure was it so I have gone down the ubuntu route. I have struggled with VNCserver and cant get it to work I think it may be a geometry problem. But I have webmin working and Samba and I can now see my server on my windows network. I just dont seem to be able to set up the permisions correctly so that I can get into the folders on the server
Oxo Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Adidas, they will run all sorts of things................ Waits, whilst someone else gets the joke. (Knows Peter has seen it )
james.wilson Posted December 28, 2012 Author Posted December 28, 2012 if you running a file server dont go down the ubuntu route. Go with sme then you can use affa to backup your work server over secure ssh securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
