| | Hello Daniweb, Well... my PDU exploded the other day with a bang and a white flash, took out my entire rack and tripped the main breakers, so since I need to replace this anyway I was thinking of re-designing my home network. At the moment I have two physical servers …  |

 | Re: viruses No, that is a commmon misconception. Linux based operating systems are more secure for a number of reasons, such as privelages and access rights, the culture surrounding it and the type of users which use it. Linux has a strict set of access rights and privelages which is one of …  |
 | Oooh, openning a can of worms on this one! By the number of people using it, it would have to be Windows (95% of all computers rings a bell, but don't quote me on that). Personally I like Linux distros, namely Ubuntu. It also depends on your use, general office … |
| | Hello, I've finally gotten around to setting up my backup and file server, inside it has a set of hard drives which I've recovered from various computers. The drives are all in good condition, and are sized as: * SDA - 320.1 GB * SDB - 250.1 GB * SDC … |

 | Re: P6200 I think I've decoded the message, thanks to online translation and a quick search. I believe the language is a poorly written piece of Javanese which when replaced with the correct spelling results in: > Cannot be replaced?? So my guess is, "Can the CPU be replaced?" to which the … |
| | Hello Daniweb, I've just purchased a new laptop, an Acer V3-571G which has an advertised battery of up to five hours. Obviously this is going to be dependant on what you are running, but even when using Ubuntu 13.04 to simply browse the internet, check emails and do some word …  |
 | Welcome to the forums! Good luck with your learning, do you have any projects currently in the pipe line? |
 | Just to expand on the other comments of "Which one", as you seem a bit uninformed about Linux operating systems. Linux is actually the kernel, this being the heart and soul of a computer and is what communicates with the hardware and software. On the top of this you have … |
| | Have you updated your package list using: `apt-get update` It might be that it isn't on your current one, and so a simple refresh of it shall do the trick. It depends when you last updated it, and when it was added (or removed in some cases).  |

| | I am attempting to learn Python, to add to my collection of languages and to get at least one programming language under my belt. So far I've only done the basics, and to test what I've learnt I made an extremelly simple calculator: #PyCalc Version 1.0 Loop = 0 print("-------------------------------------") … |
 | Might sound stupid, but have you checked the firewall settings on your problematic laptop?  |
| | Re: web developement It's good to know you're eager, however you need to remember that learning them takes time, so don't expect to be making the next Facebook or Google on your first tutorial! I should firstly point out the official documentation for HTML: [Click Here](http://www.w3.org/) This has some nice tutorials, and should …  |
| | Sounds like a homework question if you ask me? Offshore software development, is at it sounds, it is where software is created in another country from the one that the client is in. If I am the client and I live in the UK, and I want to use offshore … |
| | Personally I would go for the HTML, CSS, JavaScript and PHP option purely because those are all dedicated web languages as opposed to C# which isn't. Use whichever you feel most comfortable/confident with though, that is the most important thing. |
| | Well, my laptop is rather slow... and it's missing the 'Zzzzzzzzzzz' key (woops... stupid thing). My current computer is a Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook A Series (AH530), it only has 2GB of RAM installed and a 250GB HDD making it unsuitable for anything heavy handed, and it has a dual core … |

| | HTML, then moved onto CSS, then failed miserably at C++ before looking into PHP. From PHP, I did some shell/bash scripting, and JavaScript. So focusing languages used for web development, and server administration. No actual programming languages, but markup, styling and scripting for sure. |
| | Not sure if anyone lives near, or is currently in Boston however watching the news it seems to be kicking off. For those of you who don't know, one explosion went off at the finish line, and one at the JFK library. Two more packages have been found (although unconfirmed) … |

| | As others have said, you will need to do some of your own work, however I will give you a head start with the sort of things you will need to look for. Essentially you want a secure file upload, and then on your site a reference to the image. …  |
| | Does it POST? A POST (Power on System Test) being a test run when the computer first turns on to check for any critical issues. It should beep if there are issues, such as: `Long, Short, Short, Short, Long` These beeps are designed to notify you of any errors, without …  |
| | This same thing was posted a couple of days ago, They've already been invented, but the disadvantages of them are they are very expensive and have no scalability. You need to send it to the manufacturer for them to have any parts changed or replaced. |
| | I agree, the question isn't very clear. In order to make a website without the use of a CMS or Site Builder software, you at minimum need a knowledge of HTML, preferably with CSS. Once you have this, you can add functionality to it with some JavaScript and communicate with … |

| | Re: Loops So, which part is the question? How much PHP do you know so far, what PHP code do you have so far? DaniWeb isn't designed for you to get your homework done for you. Show us your current progress, and then we can answer on a specific part of the … |
 | Not suggesting you use these unless you want to usher a women away, but I'm hoping the moderators take these in good humour: **You make my floppy disk a hard drive** Or **Can I inspect your USB Port?** |
| | Re: Wamp or Xampp Windows 8, I'm sorry for you! Anyway, if using Windows I normally stick to XAMPP. As simple as clicking a couple of buttons, I'm sure there are pros and cons of each, however XAMPP shall do everything you would need to develop a website on (I assume this is for … |
 | Re: syncing routers It might just be me, but I'm not sure I fully understand what you're asking?
