Need Help on Linux Clustering
by Neelesh Gurjar 20 Oct '07

20 Oct '07

Hi, I work in NGO. They are migrating from windows to Linux. They can't spend so much money on servers. They have around 50 PCs. So I want to setup cluster on 2-3 PCs or more than that for setting up server. I am excepted to get their collective output. So that it will be compatible with one server. I heard that it can be done with Linux Clustering. Do anybody have any idea on this ?

Triband through USB - Ubuntu 7.10
by Roshan N Baladhanvi 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

If you are a MTNL Triband user and want to connect to the internet through USB, Ubuntu 7.10 will automatically detect the network through the USB. However, one would have to add the DNS servers in order to get started. (Kubuntu 6.06 (and later), though, could do it out-of-the box - See the K effect ;) ) Please see the http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/Broadband_Howto#MTNL_Triband page for details. (Somehow, pppoeconf never worked for me on Triband - not even on Kubuntu). http://www.ubuntu-in.org

RE:[Ilug-cal-discuss] Introduction to Inkscape-Graphic Design and publishing with Free / Open Source Software

Hi Rony, Look, there must be problem with your installation of linux / hardware configuration in linux or may the distor which u r using is may not be compatible with your hardware. Otherwise I am using Linux from last 3 years, even I have setup thinclient Linux server client setup in panvel for around 40 Pcs. They are using OO, Tally7.2, even PDF viewer but no issues. Yes I got some issues in start but OO & linux forums helped me and now there are no issues. About DTP you can use scribus. It is free and fantastic tool for DTP. And it's mailing list is also good. Or if u can purchase u can use pagestream also. Regards NeeleshG LINUX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to understand the simplicity...

I think you are the luckiest person on the earth, who had no issues in windows.... :) But here point is how much you are paying for windows and for linux. How much you are paying for support on windows and support on Linux..... Can you tell me what is happening in background of windows ? what is boot process for windows ? Yes Linux explores you the fundas of operating systems, networks... It not only shows but give you freedom of modifying itself as per your requirement.. That windows never give you... :) -- Regards NeeleshG LINUX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to understand the simplicity
