Quick note  – glibc provides the libraries required to run 32bit apps on 64bit platform, so the next time you come across this on a distro that uses the rpm package manager simply:

$sudo yum install glibc.i686

1. Download the plugin from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_64bit.html . Direct download link
2. Extract libflashplayer.so from the downloaded file
3. copy libflashplayer.so to /home/<username>/.mozilla/plugins/
4. restart Firefox !

Application specific DHCP options can be handled by creating a script with two functions and placing it in /etc/dhcp/dhclient.d

The script must follow a specific form:

1. The script must be named NAME.sh. NAME can be anything, but it makes sense to name it for the service it handles. e.g., network_routes.sh
2. The script must provide a NAME_config() function to read the options and do whatever it takes to put those options in place
3. The script must provide a NAME_restore() function to restore original configuration state when dhclient stops
4. The script must be ‘chmod +x’ or dhclient-script will ignore it

The scripts execute in the same environment as dhclient-script. That means all of the functions and variables available to it are available to your NAME.sh script.

Things of note:

1. ${SAVEDIR} is where original configuration files are saved. Save your  original configuration files here before you take the DHCP provided values and generate new files
2. Variables set in /etc/sysconfig/network, /etc/sysconfig/networking/network, and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-$interface are available to you

Took me a while to find this documentation. No more surprises from now on when dhclient updates the lease

Open file :

PHPListRoot/admin/FCKeditor/editor/filemanager/connectors/phplist/config.php 

on line number 28 change:

} elseif (is_file('../../../../../../../../config/config.php')) {  

to:

} elseif (is_file('../../../../../../config/config.php')) { 

and on line number 29, change:

  include "../../../../../../../../config/config.php"; 

to

  include "../../../../../../config/config.php"; 

Thats it! Save the file and you should be able to instantly upload images using the FCK editor

Getting around chroot

For the record “ls -s /home/user1 /home/user2″ does not work. chroot will not allow you to get out

Starting for kernel 2.4.Something a filesystem could be mounted on multiple mount points using the –bind option. hence:

$sudo mount --bind /home/user1/ /home/user2/user1

That’s it, log in as user2 and you should be able to see user1’s home. Add it to rc.local so that its mounted on reboot

Fixing it is pretty easy.

open file phpBB3_root_path/includes/functions_messenger.php
find:
$headers[] = 'From: ' . $this->;from;
replace with:
$headers[] = 'From: Display Name ' . $this->;from;
find:
$headers[] = 'Reply-To: ' . $this->;replyto;
replace with:
headers[] = 'Reply-To: Display Name ' . $this->;replyto;
find:
$headers[] = 'Return-Path: <' . $config['board_email'] . '>;';
replace with:
$headers[] = 'Return-Path: Display Name <' . $config['board_email'] . '>;';
find:
$headers[] = 'Sender: <' . $config['board_email'] . '>;';
replace with:
$headers[] = 'Sender: Display Name <' . $config['board_email'] . '>;';

That should do the trick. Did it work for you ?

Migration hung midway complaining “duplicate usernames in the user table”. A quick, crude, home brewed php script looked up the user table for duplicate username entries and deleted them.  Migration was in business again trashing the database with insert queries.  At the  end of day one [monday] we had a vanilla installation of phpBB3 serving migrated data. Released it to the mods/admins for alpha testing

Over the next two days it was time to play with CSS to make it look and feel like CHIP.

Thursday dawned and it was time to go live. The forum went offline at 10am. Work work work, some serious typing on the keyboard and nine hours later, as scheduled we were online at 7pm. By the time I wrapped up for the day it was 12:45am Friday.  With  Electron Blue  blaring loud I walked out of the office. It felt like I was on cloud #9. Its getting obvious that this is what I live for

Been fixing minor bugs over the weekend

Search engine optimization and mods are on the table this week. Coupled with server administration, this is going to be another long fun week

UPDATE: 5th December

Awwwww, that is so sweet Brian and thank you for the first run copy
