Apache TOMCAT

just have a read abt Apache and TOMCAT and how they could work together to get good web contents.....

Apahe is a webserver. Tomcat is a java servlet container (J2EE compliant servlet container). Tomcat can independantely work as a webserver, it can be integrated with other webservers like Apache, IIS and NES servers. It facilitates a surface for java programs to run in co-operation with a webserver.

will come up with more soon.......

undestanding what i understood was wrong...!?!!!

its quite amazing to understand that some files work just the opposite wat it was intended once we change the labels...
i was referring to the FTP configuration file, some days back only i got the real usage of the user_list file..

first of all we need to enable FTP service to read the user_list file

userlist_enable=YES
userlist_deny=YES # means that the users inside the vsftpd.user_list are denied, which is the default
userlist_deny=NO # means that the users inside the vsftpd.user_list are only allowed to login via FTP

anyways.. nice to understand that even at this later stage...!?!!!

never mkfs an extended partition...!?!!!

i know im on the beginning stages of experience...

and one did happen yday when i tried to mkfs an extended parition... it did try making a filesystem but ended up showing a Segmentation Fault ... and when i reinstalled ...it was gone....

i made a 32 GB extended partition with no logical volumes in it.. it was made as such... and then i tried..

#mke2fs /dev/hda4
it did show me a message... something like its the full harddisk and am i sure abt the filesystem creation...something like that... i simply pressed the 'y' key and proceeded with the process...

and at last.. a Segmentation Fault...

anyways... put the first installation CD and performed an NFS installation...

shell scripting on the process..........

will be out with it soooon..........

dig mj0vy.blogspot.com

well...
configured my pc as a DNS server... leaving me with all kinds of confusions...

i made two zone files... mkfs.zone and reverse.zone for the domain mkfs.com

initially moved the named.local and localhost.zone in /var/named to reverse.zone and mkfs.zone respectievely... making them symlinks to the files inside /var/named/chroot/var/named

it didnt work out...

then i moved the files into /var/named/chroot/var/named and named them as such... reverse.zone and mkfs.zone... and it worked kool..

but.. i think /etc/named.conf fils specifies the zone files to be placed inside /var/named directory only.....

i cant understand myself wat exactly is happening....!!!

anyways... will come with the scripting references soon.............
