hmmm thanks for the link , i did what it says , but how can i start the service i mean should it start automatically?
i meant that the thing isn't working , it says that i can't connect ? i did what the FAQ said but nothing is workiung i have a 3.9 HDD install does that affect ?
Why even ask that question and expect someone else to provide an answer when you could boot the CD and do a simple test to know the answer for certain?Originally Posted by johnsmith01
sorry i didn't put the 3.9 what i meant was that if my version didn't have it anymoreOriginally Posted by Harry Kuhman
by the way why would i want to boot the cd if i have knoppix installed ?
You asked "how can i start the service i mean should it start automatically?", the link I posted explains runlevels and how to make services run upon bootup.
As for getting FTP server to work, here is the steps from the FAQ.I just used the Knoppix 3.8.2 CD on 1 machine and used WindowsXP on another and it worked.What I do is delete the symlink and restart inetd.conf Here are the necessary steps:
* Configure networking from the menu
* Open a console and set a password for user knoppix:
o passwd knoppix
* Open a root shell and do:
o rm /etc/hosts.deny
o rm /etc/hosts.allow
o /etc/init.d/inetd restart
Now the ftp server is ready and from any client you can ftp to knoppix system, use 'knoppix' as user name and the password you set as password.
Now getting FTP server to work on a HD install, well it is going to be more difficult. The hosts.allow & hosts.deny files are quite important and do NOT want to delete those. I would suggest commenting all the line out using '#'.
As for "why would i want to boot the cd if i have knoppix installed ?", because a Knoppix HD install can be unstable and is very difficult to support/administrate. System stability & ease of use/administration of a Knoppix HD install has been discussed in depth at http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtop...?p=87176#87176. Read that & find out why many of us do not recommend a HD installation.
i see well i deleted them , but i made a copy
i better change to SUSE or Red hat , everytime i come here to get my question answered all i get it's confusing answers and problems about Knoppix
Its not that it is confusing. You have to recognize what a tool is good for and what a tool is not good for, hence the phrase "When all you have is a hammer, everthing looks like a nail". Knoppix is just not designed to be installed. The reason we seem to shouting this is because if we don't then incoming new users will think it is OK to use a hammer to paint a wall or use a hammer as a screwdriver when there are better & easier tools to acomplish a task.
