anyway now im locking for a tutorial how to create a web server on damn small linux,
or maybe i should get some human help!!!???
any idieas are welcome !!!
tnx!
The link i provided is a direct link to an iso on an ftp server, all you need to do is download it, if it still opens as a rar, that's because winrar by default (POS) treats .isos as archives, and can extract from them. So download from the link i gave, DO NOT open it in winrar, just burn it as an image.
well i dont have any info about sattelite connections but cant you call the your company not as a user but a person intrested in their satellite connection and ask them about that ... to be safe use a phonebooth (or what ever public calling thing is available where you are so their representatives dont keep on calling you afterwords etc)
OK I GOT IT TNX!!!!
so ..
obout the help thing have you got any suggestions whare to loock
oh obout the phone thing thats a greatr idea but i was wondering how can they block the web server???
i thing if you can make your ip visible and that other people can connect on it that shouldent be a problem at all ... should it ?????
sorry i didnt see that!!
ok but how im i to lock on apache guid when i have damn small linux???
i mean i havent ever even seen linux and how it works but i gues the tutorial for apache and damn small linux arnt quite the same .....
are they ?????
You could of course run apache from it. Install it with a packagemanager like debian apt.
Damn small linux has their own forums: http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin/forums/ikonboard.cgi
(Not that I want to scare you away but you might search for info over there ... )
Is your satelite link two way, or does your upload side go over a phone line? As I understand it, most satelite systems send out data over a phone line, then download from the satelite. If that is the case your website is going to be very slow, since it is going to be uploading files wehn someone accesses it.
When you get Damn Small installed and a netork connection working, go to the menu and select Enable Synaptic. It will download and install access to the Debian resources, which include Apache. Use Synaptic to install Apache. Or you can use Monkey.
no problems with upload it gets to 200Kb/s and no phone line at all
then ill first need you to tel me how to instal linux .
i mean i have never done it before so when i boot from the iso dose linux have a manual tu get you trough the instalation proces or ill heve to do it on my own????
