| 16:02.13 | dankolb | heh |
| 16:03.46 | Clyphox | dankolb : any idea why? |

| 16:04.09 | Clyphox | k |
| 16:04.56 | Clyphox | Jenson : Mine seems to be a porn site atm hehe |
| 16:05.01 | dankolb | Heh. |
| 16:05.14 | dankolb | It's the Apache configuration |
| 16:05.19 | Jenson | lol Clyphox I'm on yours and not the porn lol |
| 16:05.25 | Clyphox | awe... |
| 16:05.31 | Clyphox | er.. good :) |

| 16:06.43 | Clyphox | (for the record I have NO C:) |
| 16:06.51 | Jenson | Fucking hell I fixed that |

| 16:07.59 | Jenson | I gotta delete that tag! |
| 16:08.11 | Clyphox | Try the nutscrape one if you want something easy(ish) |
| 16:08.15 | Clyphox | hehe |
| 16:08.18 | Clyphox | er.. netscape.. |
| 16:08.24 | Clyphox | or even better mozilla |
| 16:08.30 | Jenson | I have Moz |
| 16:09.04 | Clyphox | Its not quite as good as mcedit but it works hehe |
| 16:09.09 | dankolb | Apache is set up to use virtualhosts on 64.246.28.105 |
| 16:10.22 | Jenson | Right ok, not it should be ok |

| 16:11.05 | Jenson | Except I've done it wrong somehow |
| 16:11.09 | Jenson | Fucking hell |
| 16:11.42 | Clyphox | dankolb: I'm not entirely sure.. I'm guessing 2-4 times a month.. |
| 16:11.48 | dankolb | Hm |
| 16:11.48 | Clyphox | checking logs... |
| 16:12.03 | Clyphox | Set up a script to monitor it but never checked it to be honest... |
| 16:13.07 | Clyphox | dankolb: stilla porn site btw.. |
| 16:13.20 | dankolb | Yeah? Well, I haven't changed anything |
| 16:13.30 | dankolb | And it shouldn't be a porn site, just a dialer site |
| 16:13.40 | Jenson | OK now I have fixed it. |
| 16:14.08 | omphe | dankolb; not a particularly nice porn site either |
| 16:14.15 | dankolb | It ain't mine |
| 16:14.32 | omphe | Not much to miss |
| 16:14.45 | Clyphox | damnit.. fine time for cron to have died.. my script hasn't been logging.. so I don't have a clue.. |
| 16:15.02 | Jenson | ewww omphe I see what you mean |
| 16:15.16 | Clyphox | I found most of the links work.. |
| 16:15.26 | omphe | Must be out of Kings Cross |
| 16:15.29 | Clyphox | (not like I checked or anything...) |
| 16:15.37 | dankolb | Jenson: Eh? |
| 16:16.01 | Clyphox | dankolb : how about I just use MX for you. (after all its all I need) |
| 16:16.38 | Clyphox | Jenson : its working now yup.. |
| 16:16.51 | Jenson | Clyphox: What broweser you using? |
| 16:16.53 | dankolb | Clyphox: Sure - you can do that |
| 16:17.11 | Clyphox | Jenson : Mozilla and orphoenix |
| 16:17.21 | Clyphox | er "or phoenix" |
| 16:18.15 | dankolb | Clyphox: If you just want me to host mail, that's fine by me |
| 16:19.04 | Clyphox | dankolb : If your friend is up for it and can put himself over as a company it might be possible he can get some work through us for all our customers with uk2 mx problems.. |
| 16:19.11 | dankolb | Cool :) |
| 16:19.41 | Clyphox | dankolb : thing is we might not be able to charge the customers as we registered their domains for them via uk2 ourselves.. |
| 16:19.42 | dankolb | Back at some point later |
| 16:19.53 | dankolb | We'll manage to sort something out :) |
| 16:21.21 | omphe | anyone know .htaccess files |
| 16:21.38 | Jenson | Nope |
| 16:21.46 | Clyphox | I did once.. there are thousands of frontends to make them easily.. |
| 16:22.28 | omphe | Writing is straightforward. Are they commonplace to use? |
| 16:22.38 | omphe | ie. on my demon account? |
| 16:22.52 | Jenson | Well I ought to go and get on with the tidying up I was doing |
| 16:22.57 | Jenson | See ya later guys. |
| 16:22.59 | Clyphox | Depends how the site it done. Its better to use php for example if thats how the site is done.. |
| 16:23.04 | Clyphox | cya.. |
| 16:23.11 | Jenson | Bye Clyphox |
| 16:23.12 | omphe | Jenson: scared you off? |
| 16:23.14 | omphe | See you. |
| 16:23.23 | Jenson | omphe: No |
| 16:24.00 | omphe | PHP is unavailable on demon homepages afaik |
| 16:25.11 | Clyphox | if you want I can give you an account on my machine but I don't think my php/mysql is working right yet. I am gonna be reinstalling soon too.. |
| 16:25.47 | Clyphox | uklinux.net does free websites with php/mysql but you can only edit it if you dial up with them (0845) |
| 16:25.55 | omphe | S'alright, I'm tinkering with my own Apache. |
| 16:26.03 | omphe | Getting ready for prime time. |
| 16:26.37 | Clyphox | I've spent lots of time tweaking mine. Now lost the compile scripts I made.. (/me is a dork) |
| 16:28.14 | Clyphox | I should work.. MUST do my CV :( |
| 16:28.19 | Clyphox | need a job soon.. |
| 16:28.30 | omphe | I should update mine. |
| 16:28.34 | Clyphox | And I have webdesign to do.. (need cash hehe) |
| 16:28.45 | Clyphox | Could I see yours for ideas on mine pls? |
| 16:28.50 | omphe | Strange, I'm job hunting but constantly updating the CV |
| 16:29.05 | Clyphox | hehe |
| 16:29.11 | omphe | sure goto www.omphe.com/cv.html |
| 16:29.30 | Clyphox | There is a command line tool for doing .htaccess files btw.. look at the apache docs.. |
| 16:30.04 | Clyphox | I STILL after all these years don't use css.. :(( |
| 16:30.05 | omphe | I've got to stop doing "projects". Warning omphe.com has only been tested on IE >5 Moz and Konqueror |
| 16:30.07 | Clyphox | must learn it.. |
| 16:30.19 | Clyphox | lol |
| 16:30.29 | omphe | Css is fantastic and saves time, but has varying mileage |
| 16:30.51 | Clyphox | Surfing! kewl. I used to try in South Africa when I was younger.. |
| 16:30.55 | omphe | Falls over with older browsers. Netscape 4.* was a nightmare |
| 16:31.26 | Clyphox | Use a php sript to detect browser and fall back on non-css page for it.. |
| 16:32.28 | omphe | Browser compat is pushing me into backend work. More fun anyway. |
| 16:33.29 | Clyphox | Man those are really nice webpages.. dispite my dislike of frames.. |
| 16:34.24 | omphe | Thanks. Yeah, I'm off frames as well. |
| 16:34.51 | Clyphox | I might use them but I will use a php-backend to decide if the broser supports it.. |
| 16:35.06 | Clyphox | php is just kewl.. I am loving it. |
| 16:35.31 | Clyphox | must go.. have to crack on with sorting out my fragged life.. |
| 16:35.34 | omphe | I've recently picked it up. Love it. Drops right into place. No learning curve. |
| 16:35.39 | omphe | See you later. |
| 16:36.15 | Clyphox | Yup |
| 16:36.44 | Clyphox | You should try python (as should I) it actually MAKES you code well.. you'll see what I mean when you try.. |

| 21:09.14 | dankolb | But he was told to carry on |
| 21:11.18 | BorgBaby | i'd like to know just how it went off the rails |
| 21:11.29 | dankolb | Apparently an engine part fell off the back carriage |

| 21:13.18 | formi | when using squid, what ports are used appart from 3128 and 3130? defaults? |

| 21:14.32 | dankolb | BorgBaby: Well, apparently the driver did report a fault |
| 21:14.43 | eye69 | formi: It should only be 3128 provided that it's a "normal" setup, with no clustering. |

| 21:15.50 | formi | one sec |
| 21:16.00 | formi | that was squid to squid |

| 21:55.17 | dankolb | That is |
| 21:55.24 | Jenson | plus it takes nearly a whole 2GB drive.... |
| 21:55.37 | dankolb | Be more selective in your packages, then |
| 21:56.14 | Jenson | I was reading Dummies Guide For Win 95 coz I was bored and randomly pressing enter during install.....I only deselcted a few pavkages |

| 21:58.55 | eye69 | 22:54:40 <@eye69> Valttu: IT WONT WORK! |

| 22:01.13 | dankolb | So's a 386 |
| 22:01.20 | eye69 | Yup. |
| 22:01.24 | Jenson | I think the mobo is fried eye69, or something |
| 22:01.31 | dankolb | Works up to 2Mbit (2x3C509s) |
| 22:01.34 | eye69 | dankolb: That's getting overkill though. |

| 22:06.05 | Jenson | <rant> Why the hell does IE6 add extra http:// at the beginning of links that already have it?? grrr </rant> |
| 22:06.15 | dankolb | Because it's shit? |
| 22:06.36 | Jenson | It's a nice browser actually |
| 22:06.37 | eye69 | Uhm... |
| 22:06.46 | Jenson | But IE 5.5 was better |
| 22:06.57 | eye69 | What makes it good? |
| 22:07.33 | eye69 | The idiotic noise everytime you click on a link? The stupid scrolling? |
| 22:07.34 | dankolb | It works with Causeway Collaboration, whereas Nutscrape doesn't |
| 22:07.34 | stephen | everything - but only if you only ever used IE |
| 22:07.54 | stephen | like most people |
| 22:07.55 | Jenson | It doesnt male noise eye69 |
| 22:08.00 | Jenson | Neoplanet is nice |
| 22:08.08 | Jenson | I just can't stand Netscape/Moz |
| 22:08.17 | Jenson | s/male/make |
| 22:08.17 | eye69 | Neoplanet is just another GUI for the IE engine. |
| 22:08.22 | dankolb | :) |
| 22:08.26 | Jenson | I know that eye69 but it's pretty |
| 22:08.34 | dankolb | Moz isn't too bad on OS X |
| 22:09.12 | Jenson | IE is nice on OS 10 from what I remember |
| 22:09.18 | eye69 | People just think IE is good because it renders pages specifically made for IE> |
| 22:09.40 | dankolb | Jenson: I prefer Moz for OS X |
| 22:09.43 | Jenson | Exactly eye69, and most unfortunately are |
| 22:09.48 | dankolb | Tabbed browsing is so nice |
| 22:09.48 | stephen | and cos it's made by microsoft and it's the only bloody browser on their PC |
| 22:10.00 | Jenson | stephen: I have Win and I have 3 browsers |
| 22:10.16 | stephen | i've lost count how many i have under win |
| 22:10.47 | Jenson | I dunno how many I have on Slack...seenas I only use it coz the screensaver looks pretty in the dark. |
| 22:11.26 | stephen | i've got mozilla, netscape 7 and opera |
| 22:12.37 | formi | phoenix on windows is quite nice |
| 22:12.47 | eye69 | I've got Mozilla and Opera, and some that build on Mozilla. |
| 22:12.50 | eye69 | formi: Yeah. |
| 22:13.08 | Jenson | I've never used phoenix |

| 22:47.16 | davilion | how shoud I take that? |
| 22:47.52 | dankolb | I'd take it as a compliment |
| 22:48.04 | Jenson | As would I |
| 22:50.28 | formi | nowadays being a freak means not being like the rest which is very GOOD |
| 22:50.38 | dankolb | yeah |
| 22:50.50 | dankolb | It's only a playground insult, really |
| 22:51.22 | formi | I like that I could ask not to be discriminated because I belong to a minority group |
| 22:52.03 | formi | those who use their brains |
| 22:52.04 | Jenson | I am a freak |
| 22:52.17 | dankolb | Only in a good way |
| 22:52.22 | formi | in your case there is no doubt |
| 22:52.25 | dankolb | formi: :) |
| 22:52.48 | Jenson | formi: You are a freak too...you were the one who brought up the whole 'feeding the rabbit' thing |
| 22:53.10 | murble | is it hungrey jenson? |
| 22:53.23 | Jenson | lol quite possibly |
| 22:54.02 | formi | Jenson: you are including all spaniards, and there are ppl there who dont even qualify to be freaks |
| 22:54.31 | Jenson | formi: No I'm not, coz you are the one thay said it. |
| 22:54.36 | Jenson | s/thay/that |
| 22:55.44 | formi | is like if you go to spain and you translate the meaning of "going out to pull birds" |
| 22:57.07 | Jenson | You must find it most amusing here in England then |
| 22:57.28 | formi | yes |
| 22:57.44 | Jenson | How long have you been here? |
| 22:57.58 | formi | once we had a party in a friends place there were ppl from everywhere |
| 22:58.12 | formi | and somebody mentioned the "french kiss" |
| 22:58.36 | formi | as it happens in france is known with another name "spanish kiss" |
| 22:58.57 | Jenson | How confusing...just call it snogging |
| 22:59.04 | formi | the colombians call it the "russian kiss" |
| 22:59.50 | formi | is sp it can have to meanings one of them "the black kiss" |
| 23:00.36 | formi | which is not really snogging |
| 23:01.11 | SpudUAway | There is also the Glasgow kiss, which, if done right, can leave your tongue lolling about! |

| 23:12.42 | dankolb | ah |
| 23:13.43 | zachary | SpudULike: I think calling it,"Linux Awareness" is a little on the petty social liberal side. Like we need simpathy. |
| 23:14.14 | SpudULike | zachary: Flyer looks fine, post it to gllugadmin. |

| 23:20.43 | SpudULike | The flyers, btw, are to help announce the installfest. The plan being to post a file on the gllug website that people can print off and post 'around town'. |
| 23:20.58 | Clyphox | My pc now has a zip drive/dvd-ram and 640M ram |
| 23:21.07 | SpudULike | Most of the advertising has been concentrated on just Tottenham Court Road. |

| 23:21.11 | Clyphox | And a removable hdd bay. (empty) |
| 23:21.25 | Jenson | SpudULike: Good idea....I'll stick then up in random places around this town...its only about 100 miles from london |
| 23:21.33 | Clyphox | Cant get the DVD-ram to work. Actually crashed the last box I tried it on.. |

| 23:25.30 | Jenson | SpudULike: I think I'll do that |
| 23:25.39 | Jenson | Do tell me when you've uploaded it |
| 23:26.07 | Clyphox | Jenson: I could never believe there were possibly any near me. Then I meet ResuDaed a few weeks ago.. |
| 23:26.33 | Jenson | How long has ResuDaed been with Elizabeth then Clyphox? |
| 23:26.47 | Clyphox | Jenson : And the other day I was at Al-Pali and I saw a big fat bearded guy jogging with a Tux T-shirt too hehe |
| 23:26.56 | SpudULike | I think they will be posted as pdfs. When done I'm sure Zach (or me) will post a message so everyone can join in. |
| 23:27.04 | Clyphox | I think its only been official for a few weeks |

| 23:30.00 | Tarragon | Nice layout. |
| 23:30.21 | zachary | Please notify me if you have any problems with downloading or printing(quality). |
| 23:30.34 | zachary | I'm updating the site to include a link. |
| 23:31.06 | dankolb | Edit the PDF, then |
| 23:31.18 | Jenson | dankolb: What Win programs do that? |
| 23:31.28 | dankolb | 'edit' ? |
| 23:31.45 | dankolb | Ah. PDF is binary. Change it to Postscript, then edit it |
| 23:32.42 | Jenson | Excuse me...I'm not a geek, I don't know how to do that either |
| 23:32.50 | dankolb | You're a geek |
| 23:33.01 | dankolb | Get a copy of Ghostscript |
| 23:33.11 | dankolb | (it'll be on your Slack machine) |
| 23:33.39 | Jenson | All I know about GhostScript is that it seems to be missing my print drivers |
| 23:33.51 | dankolb | Heh |
| 23:33.58 | Clyphox | Install webmin |
| 23:34.09 | eye69 | Yuck. |
| 23:34.11 | dankolb | How would that help? |
| 23:34.15 | dankolb | That doesn't have printer drivers |
| 23:34.39 | Clyphox | Its easy to use for gs/lpd configuring |
| 23:34.47 | eye69 | You shouldn't encourage installation of webmin. You should encourage removal of it. :) |
| 23:34.50 | dankolb | So's apsfilter |
| 23:34.59 | Clyphox | trye |
| 23:35.00 | Jenson | apsfiler is a pain |

| 23:36.06 | Jenson | I actually hate Linux |
| 23:36.07 | dankolb | cupis: Yeah. Slackware took out lpd, and put in lprng and cups instead |
| 23:36.19 | dankolb | Jenson: You have FreeBSD... |
| 23:36.19 | Jenson | Linux hates me back |
