Thanks for your response. I am now having a problem creating a user that has the ability to write to /var/www. My procedure has been: adduser liljoe passwd lilejoe usermod -d /var/www I believe the owner of /var/www is root so I have tried changing ownership with chmod but that...

Hi, I use Linux Mint 12. I use apache2 for my web server. I use vsftp for my ftp server. My website is in /var/www. From what I understand of FTP is: -each user has their own home directory (including anonymous) -when users access the ftp server they only get access to their...

I consider myself to be very computer literate and I have the "iPad 3". After I jailbroke it I have been able to use it for many administrative purposes. I can access any fileshare on my network remotely and have full remote desktop functionality. I have total access to the filesystem with...

It depends on your router. Usaully, if it is backwards compatible it will will indicate it on the setting your selecting. My router has wireless N access at 3 different speeds; the fastest one is not backwards compatible but the other 2 are compatible with G. It should indicate and if it doesn't...

What is it your trying to do exactly? Do all your devices support USB 2 or 3? ... or 1...

I don't really understand what you're saying. You have your desktop connected to a laptop's connection? (Internet Connection Sharing) or is everything connected to a single router? (either wireless or wired) You have Internet access but can't ping google? Have you tried completely reseting...

The router is YOUR connection. Your neighbors connection/router is his own and has little effect on you. Technically the connection is shared but his TV usage I'm sure has a very small, if any effect on your Internet. Now if you meant something else by neighbor or you actually allow him to...

doesn't windows have backup scheduling that allows you to do that?

You did open the ports on the router to forward the address to the computer you want WOL? Wiki Wake on Lan if you haven't already.

If your really concerned and want a 100% sure fire method to stop whatever he is doing then: Reformat/Restore your operating system (Windows) Change all your passwords to new ones (websites included) Reset your router back to factory defaults. Don't allow him in your house After you do...

I'm sure there are better solutions out there but I do something similar at work. My coworker and I use VMware server with Windows XP loaded. We both can access the VM at the same time and see what the other is doing. This would just involve downloading the free version of Vmware server and...

Yeah I don't think an external sound card would offer that great of an improvement. In fact, before this question I didn't even know you could do that. But after googling and looking over some results on amazon they do exist but don't look that impressive (16bit etc). Opening up your computer...

Typically web browsers will only hold one session per website. The reason is because if two people could be logged in at the same time, how does the browser know who is at the computer? When you use a different browser it is using a totally different session and doesn't effect other browsers...

I would imagine if your ISP has a tower in proximity to where your moving it too then it will automatically pick up the signal. But if your out of range to your ISPs nearest cell tower then your out of luck/...just like any cell phone.

If your school administrator has the policy set for your network to disable USB then why would he ask you to find a way to use USB on the network? You can't use USB if the network doesn't allow it. You could possibly boot out of the network (if there isn't security controls blocking it) by...

Yeah what john said. One way to try and work around interference is changing the channel (frequency) of the wireless. If your router is next to a microwave, satelitte box, lots of power lines, fluorescents, etc you will definitely get some interference. Although, if you change the channel...

The only thing an end user can attempt to do to restore modem connectivity is simply repowering the device. Beyond that you will need to contact your ISP because they are the only ones with the tools and access required. From my own experience these are typically things that can go wrong that...

Nobody should be able to send a "jam signal" from the Internet through your router into your network/computers. Your router has a firewall and shouldn't allow anything to be forwarded into your network without you explicitly allowing it. Somebody could in theory try and DoS your router and...

Your overall connection provided by your ISP only has so much data throughput (bandwidth). If you are experiencing connection issues or slow Internet specifically when the other computer is turned on only, then it is possible that the other computer is sending a lot of traffic across the...
