I have a perl shell script usr/bin/ken.pl
this script need to run whenever the server starts and must never stop running,
I am currently starting it as follows
./nohup /use/bin/ken.pl
does anyone know how to make this script at startup?
how to organize a colo startup if I manage to get a cage with 2-3 cabinets in a Peer1 datacentre.
From my knowledge, Peer1 handles firewalling, BGP, etc on their end so I probably won't need it.
But how can I organize it, what do you guys do when you get a new client?
Have cables readily dangling in the racks or something so you can connect it to the clients right away?
What kind of reboot privs do you give out?
Monitoring traffic, etc?
I am working on a fresh Windows 2003 server with PHP5.2.1 and MySQL 5.0.27.
I am trying to load the curl, ldap, and mssql extensions for a project I am working on here for a client. (I use linux only for the most part)
I have set:
extension_dir = "C:PHPext"
However I get the following on only these 3 of the several I am trying to load.

My PHP.ini file is as follows:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; About php.ini ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; This file controls many aspects of PHP's behavior. In order for PHP to
; read it, it must be named 'php.ini'. PHP looks for it in the current
; working directory, in the path designated by the environment variable
; PHPRC, and in the path that was defined in compile time (in that order).
; Under Windows, the compile-time path is the Windows directory. The
; path in which the php.ini file is looked for can be overridden using
; the -c argument in command line mode.
;
; The syntax of the file is extremely simple. Whitespace and Lines
; beginning with a semicolon are silently ignored (as you probably guessed).
; Section headers (e.g. [Foo]) are also silently ignored, even though
; they might mean something in the future.
;
; Directives are specified using the following syntax:
; directive = value
; Directive names are *case sensitive* - foo=bar is different from FOO=bar.
;
; The value can be a string, a number, a PHP constant (e.g. E_ALL or M_PI), one
; of the INI constants (On, Off, True, False, Yes, No and None) or an expression
; (e.g. E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE), or a quoted string ("foo").
;
; Expressions in the INI file are limited to bitwise operators and parentheses:
; | bitwise OR
; & bitwise AND
; ~ bitwise NOT
; ! boolean NOT
;
; Boolean flags can be turned on using the values 1, On, True or Yes.
; They can be turned off using the values 0, Off, False or No.
;
; An empty string can be denoted by simply not writing anything after the equal
; sign, or by using the None keyword:
;
; foo = ; sets foo to an empty string
; foo = none ; sets foo to an empty string
; foo = "none" ; sets foo to the string 'none'
;
; If you use constants in your value, and these constants belong to a
; dynamically loaded extension (either a PHP extension or a Zend extension),
; you may only use these constants *after* the line that loads the extension.

My first ever post on WHT and I am happy its a positive one. These are a few words I have to say in favor of people at LimestoneNetworks.
I ordered a Intel Core2Quad Q6600 dedicated server with them with upgrading most of the resources to the topmost at about 6 AM CST this Friday. They recently included a Fraud Check in their TOS which I was not aware of but only became notified once I had signed up. It involved uploading the CC images and a Govt ID.
Btw: their new control panel Rockware actually Rocks !
I uploaded the docs promptly and since chat was offline I called them up and got connected with a Support rep. He told me that a Sales rep will check on it at 8 AM CST. At 8 AM, one of the sales rep promptly acknowledged the ticket for verification and it had the comments of a 24-hour turnaround, which scared me a little.
Wonder ! Wonder ! Since all my stuff was verifiable and without any issues... I got reply within 20 mins stating my server was being sent for provisioning.
Another wonder ! another 20 mins and my server was showing the server in my Rockware CP as being built. I was pressing F5 like crazy and everytime I saw something new in my CP regarding my server. Which is like the most rapid updates I have seen ever !
Overall, even after the verification delay, I got my server in 4 hours !
Subsequently I had to open some tickets to them for issues that were from my side and 100% (yes 100%) of the time, someone responded within 5 mins.
Hoping to post a similar (if not more) positive review after couple of months.

how long an average a dedicated server from CoreNetworks.net takes?
I need a solution by tonight and I thought if I ordered it early this morning (1 AM) that it would be up by midnight, but not yet.
I've run a pure-ftpd-server privetley and haven't bothered to chroot the enviroment since I only used it myself when I needed files remotley. Now on request of my school and work buddies I've started hosting a website which they are to manage and through my ftp-server add / remove the site's different files.
I know how to start it with chrooted enviroment but everytime I reboot it, which I usually don't need to anyway, it starts unchrooted so I manually have to kill the ftp-daemon and start it with my customised parameters.
Is there a way to change the init.d/pure-ftpd-conf or something to start with my customised options? i.e with the chroot-option turned on.
I am very interested in getting in the web hosting business and have been investigating a lot in the internet. My question is what would be the recommended hardware to start, taking in consideration the costs.
What processor?
How many cores 1,2 4...?
How many RAM?
I was thinking 2 250 GB SATA drives in RAID 1.
I'm putting in a script in /etc/rc.d/rc.local, so that once the system starts up it runs.
However, I'd also like the script to run as a specific user, and not root. How do I do this?
I have 2.4.3 (Win-64) installed and running. When it starts up, I get a command prompt window that has messages in it, but the window closes so quickly, I can't read the messages. They don't appear in the log. I have tried to manually start the server, but when I do, the messages do not appear!
How can I get that window to stay open or where can I see those messages?
I have supybot, and I want to make it startup at bootup, in the background. The command is
supybot some.conf
Anytime I reboot I want it to do that, but as a background process,
to have assp run on system startup, since my server seems to be suffering from random reboots.
I need to run the command perl /usr/share/assp/assp.pl when the system turns on, so that it will receive mail and I can send mail..

The question is, i'm a web developer, i know very little about the back end goings on, such as System Administration, but i've got a few books on the subject which are aimed at Unix system administrators. Does UNIX cover both OSX and Linux (Debian mainly).
Eventually i want to be able to run my own server, i own a debian dedicated server, but its not my own, its the datacenter's and i dont really know enough to get down and dirty in the back end. Id like to be able to set up servers from scratch in the long run.

I'm a Unix newbie so please forgive me if this is a really dumb question but I haven't quite been able to figure it out...
I'm trying to set up a form script to replace formmail on the server. I've set it up in the cgi-sys bin. I chmod the script 755, but when I try to call it I get 500 error messages.
I was looking at the permissions and I noticed that all the other scripts have the "wheel" setting.. such as:
197633 -rwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 3479620 Dec 22 03:04 _formmail.cgi*
The new form I added as "root" instead of "wheel":
1280150 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 12342 Mar 1 21:46 mycontactform.pl*
How do I change it so that "mycontactform.pl" is in the "wheel" group so that it works? Anything else I should know/do to make this secure? I don't know enough about the permissions to change this. I want all the customers on the server to be able to use the new form.
I currently have a script with code below that works great when the permissions on the dbconnect.php file are 755. The problem with this is that anyone on the web can see this config file which contains passwords DOH! If I change it to 751, then it tells me "cannot connect". The user and group on both the page and this script are the same.
With apache, i use the setting to store http and https files in the same directory.
Any ideas how to make this a little more secure? Changing the permission to 751 would do the trick but then it breaks the script. I don't understand why the script would be running taking "other" permissions into account...it should be running with "user" permissions instead. it might even have something to do with who the apache executable is running as...
<?php
include("../../../cgi-bin/dbconnect.php");
