I'm new to Linux, but loving the last two weeks of it. I've already noticed a bunch of improvements in my system over its Windows performance, but i don't want to bore you with what you already know.
I am having trouble with the recognition of my Java VM installation.
I used an rpm to install Java 1.4.2 (redhat v9), and did so successfully. But, when i go to install Limewire, i am given this error:
"No Java VM could be found from your PATH environment variable. You must install a VM ..."
What directory do i need to add to my PATH variable? I've already tried adding /usr/java and /usr/java/j2re1.4.2 without any luck.
Nah, I've only briefly flirted with limewire in Linux but never really used p2p on Linux, when I had windows I used edonkey which has a linux version, I'm sure though the good folks will know of tons of them.
I use vsftp for ftp server mainly because that's what I'm familiar with but theres proftp aswell which I'm aware of and again most likely a whole raft of others.
