Whats the difference between Linux and windows hosting? Do i need Linux on my system to linux host?

Q. Whats are the advantages and the disadvantages of Linux hosting? why is it cheaper ? If I make a website in Dreamweaver and Flash CS5, can I Linux host?
Do I need to be wary about something?

A. All websites today currently run on either a Windows web server or a Linux-based server. The vast majority of websites run on a Linux-based platform as Linux has a strong reputation for security and web server performance. With standard (static) HTML-based websites, the web hosting platform doesn't make much difference. When it does make a difference, however, is when the website uses a dynamic scripting technology such as ASP (A Microsoft based technology), or PHP / PERL (Linux based technologies). A Windows-based hosting solution will run a Microsoft Windows server with IIS (Internet Information Server), and is necessary to run an ASP / ASP.NET scripted website. A Linux-based platform is typically used for PHP, Perl, and most other types of websites. Basically, unless your website uses ASP (pages ending in the .asp extention), Windows hosting is not necessary.

As an experienced webmaster I recommend BH web hosting which Iâm sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements. They have a really great offer for hosting & I have used them for over 3 yrs now, and have never had a single problem with them.

What is the real differences with a Linux hosting package versus a MS hosting package?
Q. What is the real differences with a Linux hosting package versus a MS hosting package????

A. Linux hosting is the standard. Majority of website are hosted on linux servers. It's a lot better than Windows hosting.

The only reason to use Windows hosting would be if you wrote your site in asp.

Linux hosting is the default. If it doesn't say which operating system is used, it's linux.

For hosting I recommend one of these:
http://www.webhostingtable.com/

Powweb currently has the best offer.
Their standard price is $7.77/month ($93.24/year)
but they have the 50% sale right now.

Disk space: Unlimited
Bandwidth: Unlimited
A Free domain name
Unlimited domains and subdomains

Price: $3.88/month ($46.56/year)

Their hosting plan includes web builder, so you can create your site just by drag and drop (without any programming), or you could install Wordpress (easy, one click install from their control panel), choose a theme that you like, and start adding content.

How does Linux hosting without CPanel look like?
Q. Im new to VPS hosting. I need a linux hosting with php and mysql.

I will not be including CPanel in my hosting. Can I manage or do I have to struggle ?
Can anyone give me a link on how VPS hosting will look like for Linux /

A. Technically speaking, it won't "look" like anything. If the host doesn't provide an alternative web interface to configure it, you will probably have to connect to it using an SSH client. If you do this, you will have a screen similar to the following (depending on the SSH client):

What are the main differences between Linux Mint 12 and Linux Mint Debian?
Q. Obviously one is based on ubuntu and the other based on Debian, but what are the package differences? What kind of software do they/don't they have?

A. Linux Mint Debian is a rolling distribution. I keeps on getting incremental updates, and you don't have to reinstall it. Linux Mint 12, on the other hand, gets periodic major upgrades which you have to install.

What type of package do I use on Linux Mint 9?
Q. Most software I find isn't packaged specifically for Linux Mint. So I was wondering, do I use the packages for Ubuntu or the one classified under other or all distros?

I figured other or all would make more sense, but I thought since Linux Mint is from Ubuntu maybe its OK.

Yes, I'm new to Linux >.> Thanks for any help.

A. Any package ending with .deb should be installable in Linux Mint. That means any packages designed for Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, or any other Debian derivatives will be fine.

Are there any free programs to unzip compressed files?

Q. I used win zip for the free trial and it worked well, I liked it. But now my free trial is over and I'm without a program to unzip compressed files. Normally this isn't a big deal, but I need to download GIMP brushes or fonts to do photo manipulations. Anyone know of a good program to use for this purpose? It needs to be free all the time. I could use a free trial again for now but I'd really like to have a "free all the time" program for this. Thanks!

A. 7Zip is free always. But it only works on Microsoft's Winduhs, if I recall correctly.

If you are running Linux, gzip is already present. Plus, the file managers already know how to zip and unzip, so no addons are required.

How can I open a zip file on a Linux OS?
Q. I reaceently installed the LInux Fedora OS in my PC and now the sound is not working, does anybody know what can I used and or do to open a zip file?
Thanks in advance

A. There is a program called zip or unzip. Do a yum install zip or yum search zip from the command line (as root) then unzip the file using that.

How to run a makefile in windows?
Q. I know at school we run it on linux but i have windows on my laptop and im using visual studios 2010 for C++ (express) - can someone please explain what i need to download/do to run makefiles?

A. I don't believe that Visual Studio has any facility for handling a "makefile".

What you can do is download the MinGW C++ compiler.

http://www.mingw.org

Unzip the download into a known location, such as "C:\mingw" on XP, or
"C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\MinGW" on Windows 7.

Calling that {mingw} to represent whichever case you have:

Set your PATH to include {mingw}\bin and {mingw}\msys\1.0\bin.

The MinGW package includes not only a C++ compiler, but a Bash shell script, awk, sed, grep, and a slew of other UNIX commands that will run on the Windows machine. For your interest, it happens to also include the "make" command, which will process your "makefile".

It might end up running the MinGW compiler against your C++ code, when you might have wanted it to use the Visual Studio compiler, but you can cross that bridge when you come to it.

When they start giving away thousands of linux-based educational laptops this fall, will things change much?

Q. Visit http://laptops.org to find out about the machines that will soon be flooding the globe...and the tons of free software being developed, with networking collaboration built-in.
Those who want first-rate creativity software without paying a ransom to Adobe -- and without stealing -- will soon be able to have it all by switching to Linux.
OOPS....that should be http://laptop.org.
and here's a great photo:
http://wiki.laptop.org/images/e/e9/Drawing75c.jpg

A. Not really as there is still a lot of stuff that doesn't work with Linux although I commend the Linux Foundation for doing this.
Unfortunately Windows still rules but Apple is making a big impact in education circles.

What does original Linux look like?
Q. Run the very original line of code that is Linux, then screen shot it so I can see its GUI. I would love to see it. I believe you can get it from the Linux foundation website.

A. The original line (do you mean the first line?) of Linux is not a GUI. Perhaps you do not know what GUI means. Perhaps you could give an example of what you mean.

What is the difference between GNU and GUI?
Q. I have no clue what GNU is but I know gui is Graphic User Interface. GUI is in like mac windows while GNU is in linux/ubuntu, basically any unix system.

A. GNU is the name of software or software collections release by the Free Software Foundation. Originally a recursive acromyn (hackers are quite fond of recursive acronyms) that means GNU is Not Unix.

GNU's GUI is GNOME (GNu Object Model Enviroment), other GUI's for linux are KDE, or XFCE and are not GNU.

GNU really underlies the core system, the compiler, utilities, and many of the tools.

In Ubuntu Linux what is the Terminal command to close a window?

Q. I have an application that opens at launch to allow me to use my Gamepad to control the mouse and arrow keys. This application also opens a window so I would like a terminal command that I can program to close the window at startup. Thank you.

A. Your question is worded a bit oddly but I think you're looking for System > Preferences > Startup Applications

=) hope that helps!

Using a virtual connection to Linux terminal, how can I open the Linux text editor?
Q. I'm virtually connected to a linux terminal. In the terminal window I type the following commands
tcsh
cd vlsi1/Lab3
ls
pico TxFIFOtest
(these commands open an editor inside the terminal, the editor is terrible though and I will be making numerous changes to this. Is there a way to open this with a text editor?)

A. u are using tc shell?

any shell have ENV values, editor are en ENV key for linux editor, in debian/venenux the editor by default are nano or mcedit-debian, the first acts as normal ecitor like MSDOS, the second atc as special editor using IBM's F1 to F12 keys

install vim (not vi) and cam note diference, also can install nano, nano its more for ignorant command line real linux users

if u wish use graphical editor only use sux (venenux and sidux only) or install sux (apt-get install sux) and ejecute graphical editor as: "sux kwrite" or "sux leafpad" when runs, sux ask for root admin password (or for user password if u are in sudoers file)

i recomend install linux venenux+massenkoh plugs due u seems to be a non linux user, ubuntu are not good choice for system training

what are my chances to become a Linux System Administrator at 48?

Q. I am trying to change career(unemployed) and I am a newbie in technology except that I did some html & CSS. I wonder if I study Linux for a year & maybe pass a linux+ certification I will be able to get an entry level position? Is it too old at 48 to try? Or maybe should I focus on something like PHP/Mysql? I am trying to decide what would be the easy road and the rewarding one as well. Thanks.

A. With RHCE, you are never too old.

what kind of hourly wage could i expect with a A+ certification?
Q. I plan on taking it this summer and was wondering where could i work and what kind of pay i would receive. I plan on taking my linux certification this winter any idea what that pays?

A. Really dont expect much. A+ is the basics of basics. Depending on your area and where you apply, you will probably start a few dollars ($2-4) over minimum wage, if you have no job experience. Linux certifications are only meaningful if the place you are apply has any Linux machines in the first place. Most of the business world runs Windows, and then if at all, they run Linux for task specific jobs, which are basically set and forget.

I installed Fedora 13 for a class, how do I get back to vista?
Q. I followed instructions in our book Linux+ Guide to Linux Certification 3rd edition in project 2. Please help I really don't know what's going on. Step by step instructions would be nice. Thanks.

A. If you did not allow the option for resizing the Windows drive and creating its' own partitons in the free space this creates during install, you have lost Vista. If you had ot would offer you the option to boot from Vista each time you start up. You would now need to re-install it from the original OS disk. You will need to use the advanced option to delete all partitions and create one new one to load on. All your data is gone.

How do I install applications on Backtrack 2 Linux Distribution?
Q. Hi,

I just installed the Backtrack 2 Linux distribution and I am very newbiew at everything with Linux. So say i wanted to install the Pidgin instant message source. The file name is pidgin-2.2.2.tar.bz2. What exactly would i type in to unpack that file and then install it? And I am also interested in installing Wine. Could someone walk me through that as well?

A. http://forums.remote-exploit.org/showthread.php?t=7180
Try reading here. This distribution is based on slackware Linux and it CAN be difficult for beginners. If I were to recommend a distr for a "newbie" it'd be PCLinuxOS or Freespire. they're TRULY "newbie-friendly" distros.
Hope you have MANY years of fun and learning Linux!

Is installing backtrack effect bios of my system?
Q. someone told me if i install backtrack linux,then i won't be able to install window 7 later i.e it change my all bios settings and i won't recover it later
Is it right or not please tell me soon.

A. It is wrong in that it does not touch your BIOS settings or do anything specifically to disable installing Windows 7. It is somewhat more difficult, but still possible, to install Windows 7 afterward. However, if you have both, you should install Windows 7 first for the easiest dual-boot setup.
