LAMP is ON

I launched a browser in Ubuntu and entered the following IP "127.0.0.1" to obtain ‘evidence’ of Apache and PHP at work.
 
In case you can’t read the print, it says
"Apache/2.0.55 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.1.2 Server at 127.0.0.1 Port 80"
 
However, my personal geek did not know how to prove that MySQL is running so hopefully someone can answer that question.

updates to website

Since I’d completed my other assignment, I decided to work more on my website. Here’s the new version of it with a lot of currently-still-broken links.

hijacked!

I brought my copy of Nero-burned Ubuntu CD to the Malloy Hall Computer Lab where another classmate was just completing his own hijacking. Our class expert, Tapan, was also in the Lab so I purposefully conveniently took the empty seat beside him. That proved to be a wise move.

Step 1: Loaded CD and it offered me the option to install instead of rebooting. Tapan said that the pc was not automatically rebooting so I would need to restart the PC.

Step 1a: Restarted PC and hit F2 to change settings so that it would reboot from CD.

Step 2: Restarted PC again and this time, Ubuntu was initiated.

Step 3: Posed beside hijacked PC as evidence of completed assignment.

 Successful Hijack!

Step 4: Took a snapshot of Ubuntu at work on the hiajcked PC and played around with it a little. Discovered that Ubuntu has a whole list of games like mahjong etc but resisted the urge to play because I had to go off to another class up on the hill. emoticon

 

Step 5: Exited from Ubuntu and restored hijacked PC 

 

Step 5a: Unfortunately both Brad and I ran into a minor glitch where the PC hung with the above screen showing after releasing the CD to us. My first instinct was to run away as fast as possible check with Tapan and he reassured us that all we needed to do was to restart the PC. We did just that and the PC was restored to the usual Windows operating system.

static & complete…?

So here’s my simple static website courtesy of Dreamweaver. It’s really just a banner with some text. I’ve almost forgotten how precise the file and source names must match up to work. However, besides the fact that everytime I change a file name/location I need to change everything else on the remote server a.k.a. USFFiles, it’s been pretty fun. I like playing around with images on Photoshop so I had fun creating the banner image and little nav buttons.

I’ll try to work more on it over the next few days but if JP thinks this is adequate, I’ll probably focus more on the other assignments. Also, I know the resume pdf is not loading but I have no idea why so avoid clicking on it since it’ll just hang on you.

p.s: I couldn’t resist using the piggy
