Network Equipment on Linux

Hai friends 4tatc all, do not feel 3 days I lay still in bed and makes me unable to write an article. Now I've recovered and now I have written articles about the network equipment on Linux. In an Ethernet network used many tools like Hub, Bridge, Repeater, Switch, Router, and others are useful for connecting existing terminals in the network. All equipment will work with Ethernet protocol.

Protocol for the network that is currently widely used is the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet protocol. This protocol uses a mechanism called Carrier Sense Multiple Access Collision Detection (CSMA / CD).

DOS Commands in Linux

At the time of work using the Linux console, maybe this is reminiscent of the DOS, frequent users will carry over to type DOS commands, of course, would be an error. For example the command:

# Cd ..

In DOS, this can run, but on Linux this command will generate an error message, because the 'cd' on Linux is a program, so the parameters that the program should be separated by spaces.

This can be overcome by using the alias command, his command is as follows:

Vi editor has many facilities that are helping programmers, but novice users because they avoid Vi editor considers it very difficult and confusing. This chapter intended to introduce the novice user to the editor Vi. Why Using Vi Here are some reasons 

Apache and BIND on Slackware

Introduction
Apache is the most popular web server since April 1996. It was originally based on NCSA httpd, and
has grown into a full-featured HTTP server. Slackware Linux currently uses the 1.3.x branch of
Apache. This chapter is based on Apache 1.3.x.

Installation
Apache can be installed by adding the apache package from the “n” disk set. If you also want to use PHP, the php (“n” disk set) and mysql (“ap” disk set) are also required. MySQL is required, because the precompiled PHP depends on MySQL shared libraries. You do not have to run MySQL itself. After installing Apache it can be started automatically while booting the system by making the /etc/rc.d/rc.httpd file executable. You can do this by executing:

Sendmail on Linux Slackware

Sendmail

Sendmail is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) that Slackware Linux uses. sendmail was originally written by Eric Allman, who still maintains sendmail. The primary role of the sendmail MTA is delivering messages, either locally or remotely. Delivery is usually done through the SMTP protocol. The means that sendmail can accept e-mail from remote sites through the SMTP port, and that sendmail delivers site destined for remote sites to other SMTP servers.

About Linux

What is Linux?

Linux is a UNIX-like kernel, which is written by Linus Torvalds and other developers. Linux runs on many different architectures, for example on IA32, IA64, Alpha, m68k, SPARC and PowerPC machines. The latest kernel and information about the Linux kernel can be found on the Linux kernel website: http://www.kernel.org

The Linux kernel is often confused with the GNU/Linux operating system. Linux is only a kernel,not a complete operating system. GNU/Linux consists of the GNU operating system with the Linux kernel. The following section gives a more extensive description of GNU/Linux.

The Bash Shell

The shell is the traditional interface used by UNIX and GNU/Linux. In contrast to the X Window
System it is an interface that works with commands. In the beginning this can be a bit awkward, but the shell is very powerful. Even in these days the shell is almost unavoidable. The default shell on Slackware Linux is Bash. Bash means “Bourne-Again SHell”, which is a pun on the name of one of the traditional UNIX shells, the “Bourne Shell”. Slackware Linux also provides some other shells, but Bash is the main topic of this chapter.

Installing Slackware Linux

Slackware Linux is one of the oldest Linux distributions remaining. Over the years, it has stayed true to its roots and form.

Here's what the author, Patrick Volkerding has to say about it.

Introduction to the history Linux

History of Linux

Birth of linux started by Linus Torvalds, a student computer science at the University of Helsinki, Finland, who worked on the project as hobby.
Inspired by Minix system ( Mini UNIX ). Linus developed a computer operating system like UNIX and furnish with application programs. Core operating system (kernel) are then named as the name of manufacture, or more precisely Linux GNU/ Linux.
(GNU is an acronym reklursif / repeat of GNU is Not Unix). Kernel, the starting and stopping application programs in it, regulate acces memory, network connection, and so forth.
Linux is now not only known as the kernel, but as a complete operating system with a collection of application programs and networks that developed aunder the auspices of the FSF's GNU project (Free Software Foundation), led by Richad Stallman.

Linux Command

1. sort: Sorting ASCII input based on sequence numbers
of characters.

2. Cut: Retrieving specific columns from the rows masukkanya,
specified in the option-c.

3. uniq: To clear up consecutive lines that experienced
Duplication, are usually combined in a pipeline with a sort.

4. grep: Filtering input and displays the rows that
containing only the specified pattern.
5. find: Find files or the directory.

6. ln: Create links from one file / directory to the file / directory else.

7. locate: Knowing where the location of a file or directory.

The Advantages Linux

1. Freeware for using the GPL license so it can be distributed for free. Even if there are Linux distros that are not free, generally we still do not have to pay expensive licenses to other operating systems are non-GPL. The average price is comparable to the cost of burning to a CD until ready for use. But there are some who do look very expensive. Obviously it is an exclusive edition distro with a very good package, and is usually complete with a book or CD manual use of Linux.

2.Interface and display better graphics and sharper images.

3. Complete and powerful, provides many functions for various needs, for example, create documents, edit text, edit images, worksheets (such as editing data in Microsoft Excel), creating presentations, playing music files, video, Internet, computer networking, and forth. For each of these functions, Linux provides a lot of freeware applications.

4.Stability, especially for computer network systems. While other operating systems often require a server reboot on a regular basis, linux server can survive without a reboot until the hardware itself is damaged. For use in personal computers (PCs) used any Linux rarely hangs.

5. Open source. By editing and varying the source code or configuration settings, we can customize the Linux functions in accordance with our needs.

6. Completeness various programming languages: Java, C, C + +, and so forth.

7. Kompatibel with a variety of computer processors, ranging from as small as a 3Com Palm Pilot until the machinery for Beowulf clusters (kunpulan of many personal computers are connected quickly to solve scientific problems). Linux is able to walk almost every processors like Digital Alpha, Strong ARM, the processor outputs Inteln (ranging from 386 to intel intel pentium 4), the output processor AMD (Duron, Dalton), Cyrix / IBM, Motorola 68X000, PowerPC (including Power Macintosh), and so forth. Compare with Windows NT that is only compatible with Intel and Digital Alpha or under Windows 95/98 that can only be operated on Intel, AMD, and Cyrix.

8. IF we have a second computer operating system, Windows Vista and Ubuntu for example 9:10, Linux (ubuntu 9:10) more easily access the files / folders located on the windows partition. But it is difficult even windows can not access the files / folders on the Linux partition.

9. Software N Hardware in Linux appear as files so easily accessed by the programming language. But in the process also access the hardware, users sometimes have difficulties. So this has become surplus as well as the lack of Linux.

10. Can read and write files in the format used by other operating systems, ranging from the OS / 2, DOS, Windows, Apple Macintosh, Unix, and others. For example OpenOffice Writer in Linux that can read and write in Microsoft Word format document files. (. Doc)
