[Imc-aotearoa-tech] cheers for the info

[roving]

hi,

> I'm still at school for another 5 weeks too :-/

ah! there's the problem - i thought you'd said eight days not weeks.
got my head muddled. feel free to ignore further requests until later
then.

>Ok, I'll email cat and see if they want to set aotearoa up an acc on 
pink, if it's too much trouble for them maybe we could just use yours. 
I'll try and do this tonite.

sure we can use mine
 
> Ok, that might be ok. I have to go to school soon, so I'll try and be
quick . . . 

> You don't use an ssh program to copy stuff to the remote server, you 
use it to login to it. So with this program you can make directories, 
create links, set permissions and move files around *inside* the
server. On windows these progs include putty, and openssh.

got it (kinda guessed that)

> You need an scp [Secure CoPy] program to send files to the remote 
server. Cat recommends that you use winSCP for this. I haven't used any
of these progs so I'm not sure. When I work I have two windows open,
one thats logged into conway over ssh, and one that I execute scp's to
conway from.

winscp is easy - should i not be using it to 'put' to kropotkin?

> Err, isn't that a bit of overkill for a links page? How many links do
you want? :) Do you want people to be able to add their own links? I
could whip up an form that could do that in a minute [or two].
Simplicity is good.

well, i'm doing it as a project anyway - so if people don't like it
that's fine too. i've commented more in AimWishList

> Active uses posgresql, by conway [and pink too I guess ] also has
mysql - though I would appreciate it if we stuck to postgres if
possible.

bugger! - okay i'll try and learn that then

thanks - duncan
