    use laptop as screen + keyboard for desktop

    C'mon Steven, nothing's impossible! :) I could just install VNC server on the desktop (one time with another kb/monitor) and then control the desktop with VNC client on the laptop, which I think would be the cheapest solution since it' s all behind a firewall I don't really need the security...

    use laptop as screen + keyboard for desktop

    Hello, I've got a (relatively) old HP Omnibook laptop. I also have a newer Shuttle SS51G desktop that is much, much faster. I would like to somehow use the laptop mouse, keyboard and screen to control the desktop directly. Is that possible? Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks!

    mod_rewrite for security

    First off, I am a mod_rewrite newbie...apologies in advance. Essentially I want to use mod_rewrite to hide .php extensions. For example, I want http://www.mydomain.com/foo to redirect internally to foo.php. I need the rule constructed so that /foobar/ will still go to /foobar/, to keep the...

    Wireless NIC as access point?

    Ah...good point on the coverage. It will be used in the workplace, although within a 25ft one level radius. Alternatively are you aware of any wireless products that might fit the bill...in other words, a PCI card that acts as an access point? Thanks again for your response.

    Wireless NIC as access point?

    Restrictions meaning functionality in the typical WAP router box? (DHCP/DNS/NAT) Or in the transmission of data? Should I set up the card in "ad hoc" mode? Thanks!

    Wireless NIC as access point?

    Hello, I am building a linux server that will also be running DHCP and DNS services. I'm wondering if I can simply stick a wireless access pci NIC card in it (e.g. linksys wmp11) and have the box act as a wireless access point? Any thoughts would be appreciated thanks!

    Clients slow when not connected to domain

    no...he doesn't. The log on happens quickly though -- it seems to recognize that the domain isn't present and logs on with cahced info?

    Small Business Server

    ISA/Exchange/SQL Server/Active directory on the same machine is an incredible frustration. Unless your small business has a full time MSCE network admin, I don't recommend this configuration. You can eliminate 90% of all problems SBS generates by ditching ISA server. Buy yourself a hardware...

    Apache SSL HOW-TO

    Hello, Could someone point in me in the right direction? I have Apache v2 on my RH 7.3 box. OpenSSL was installed by default on the box, and so I compiled apache with --enable-ssl. Now what? How do I configure the httpd file? Do I need a certificate? Many thanks!
