    setting up apache in linux (webmin / mandrake 9)

    Forget webmin and do what everybody else is doing, edit the file using a text editor. As for directory indexing, add this line into your Apache configuration file, httpd.conf <IfModule mod_autoindex.c> # # FancyIndexing is whether you want fancy directory indexing or standard #...

    setting up apache in linux (webmin / mandrake 9)

    Webmin can indeed use Apache as its server. I've used it with apache1.3-mod-ssl. blakerwry : The user you use in webmin (admin) must have permission to modify the files that reside under Apache directory. You can set this up, I think, under Webmin configuration->Global permission or access...

    How to start programming

    I meant to suggest former, DirectX when I was referring to the largest selection of references for programming interface. If only there's an edit button.

    Really, really stupid error messages of our time

    My vote is on The Bat. Very fast client and not as bloated as OE. It used to have small memory footprints, (< 3 MBs) but now, even at 9 MBs, it's pretty fast nonetheless.

    How to start programming

    Mr. Doug, If the hardware in question is available to you through some sort of interface ie: DirectX or a manufacturer provided API (application programming interface), you can ease the transition but probably not by much. I would suggest the later if it's available, since the user community is...

    Simple slide show program I wrote

    You may find FreeImage really handy for your upcoming image viewing program. It's a collection of really fast (C++ based) and extremely easy to use image libraries (JPG, BMP, PNG and many others). Codes based on royalty free image patents, that is. I used it for my class assignments but it can...

    Simple slide show program I wrote

    Tried it and worked great. No crashes nor issues whatsoever on XP non SP1. However : 1) Instead of using just a timer, perhaps you can include a mouse wheel slide control ie. ACDSee32. 2) You include an option to allow the slide show to be shown a maximized screen AND a full screen. I prefer...

    Melbourne "The best city in the World" Vancouver a

    Been there a few months back, the people are just great. Their politeness is totally refreshing. Maybe because I spend the rest of my life here, it's totally a different environment when I stepped in there. By the way, nice place you got there, Melbourners. Albert Park was the places I enjoyed...

    Question about VPN & Dual Network Connections

    Hope I'm not being intrusive. Just curious, do you do AH or ESP on that VPN of yours and how does it interconnects performance-wise, with the public network outside. I did a local VPN in my home (2 networks each with a firewall and a VPN endpoint) and the performance is truly bad. Both gateways...

    How to start programming

    RazorLame, the front end for LAME was written in Delphi. As for compiler, Kylix Open Edition by Borland is available. It's released under GPL so I guess all the programs produced with it will have to be released under such licensing term.

    How to start programming

    Hello all, Handruin, If you're going for C, it is time- and effort-effective to go straight for C++. While it is not a learner's language as it is with Pascal but in the long run, it's worth the time you will spend on. If you go to any programmers forums, the first thing most of them will tell...
