Add a Directory to Apache Web Server

Needing to share ISO images on our SLW (Shitty Little Webserver) at work, I added a disk mirror, and mounted on /data.  Now, how do I add that to the document root on the web server?

Well, a quick look around the inter webs shows this:


Alias /data /data/outside/documentroot

     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all

Stereo

In the processes of moving it upstairs.  Ordered art as well.  It is photos of the stereo on canvas.  Can't wait...

Getting Rid of Chooser in RHEL 6

Without the GDM configuration tool in RHEL 6, it takes a bit of command line to remove the user list.

# su -s /bin/sh gdm
sh-3.2$ gconftool-2 --direct \ 
--config-source=xml:readwrite:$HOME/.gconf -t bool \
-s  /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true
Also, you can add a message
sh-3.2$ gconftool-2 --direct --config-source=xml:readwrite:$HOME/.gconf -t string \
-s /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/banner_message_text 'Your banner message'
sh-3.2$ gconftool-2 --direct --config-source=xml:readwrite:$HOME/.gconf -t bool \
-s /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/banner_message_enable true

Three Fingers


Messing on the computer with the magic mouse.

Me:  wow, one finger swipes go back and forth in safari

Me: neat, two fingers change virtual desktops

Me: i wonder what three fingers would do

Ceri: you're gross

The Dream is Always the Same

It begins to die.

But we knew that was going to happen, didn't we,
