Weezy, you can find lots of online resources for IPB, including skins, right here: http://invisionboard.com/?resources Hope that helps

Hi George, and welcome to our family! As I added in your post above, I removed your username from your post for security reasons. No one knows which server your account is in, so theoretically no one could access it but just in case... As to your questions, first, regarding the two separate usernames/passwords: it's just the way things are built, not a choice made by TCH. These forums - running on Invision Power Board - are one product and cPanel (the account control panel each customer has access to) is another. They do not use the same username/password combination because since they're two different products made by different companies, they're not sharing the same user database. I wouldn't expect them to do so, either. cPanel is a very complex product (and IMHO, in some ways, much more than it needs to be) and its makers are probably not interested in getting their hands dirty with all the mess it would be necessary to integrate the two products. Perhaps some day it will eventually happen but I wouldn't count on it As for the next questions, as you already know, TCH does provide e-mail forwarding. You can set it up in your account's cPanel. The URL forwarding is the complicated part. TCH does not offer that service in cPanel but you can probably do that at the domain registrar level or you can set up a small script that will do it for you. A simple example would be to create a file named index.php with the following content: ><?php header("Location: http://www.hal-pc.org/~tdhg566/"); ?> and place it in your account's public_html folder. That way, when someone reaches your account at TCH, they will get forwarded to the URL you specify in the script. Humm... not that complicated, after all Hope that helps

Also check Digital Photography Review, one of the best sites of its genre.

I don't think there's a way to do that through WHM but if I recall correctly, you're on a dedicated box, so you have admin access and that may provide you with some options I don't have in my reseller account, meaning this post is really useless since I can't tell you more than "I don't think so but don't take my word for it" Seriously, I'll ask the higher powers about it and will let you know If you're in a hurry, you can also submit a help desk ticket.

Hi Mark. I'm quite sure "Server Authentication" only means that you need to send a username and password to be able to send e-mail. What you want is a different thing, you want to encrypt that username and password so they are not transmited in plain text over the internet. I'm not sure if that is enabled for port 26 but I'll check that for you and will let you know. If you're in a hurry, you can also submit a help desk ticket.

I love the Coolpix 4500 - you can't imagine just how cool the rotating body is... Naughty Other than that, I still prefer SLR cameras. Nikon has some pretty good coolpix ones.

That require_once statement should work just fine, perhaps it's something wrong with server35. Please open a help desk ticket so one of the techs can take a look at the problem. Edit: Scratch what I just said. I can see that your include path does not include any usual PHP include paths, only paths to subdirectories in your home directory, which leads me to think that you're setting the include_path yourself, am I right? That's probably the source of your problem: you're overwriting PHP's include_path. Try fetching the current include_path first and then adding to that, like this: $include_path = ini_get("include_path"); $include_path .= ".:/home/mysite/public_html/test/core:/home/mysite/public_html/test/site:/home/mysite/public_html/test/_lib/_base:/home/mysite/public_html/test/_lib/_classes"; ini_set("include_path", $include_path);

It seems that I misled you guys: Mambo is not banned from TCH. I just said that because I thought I had seen a post by Mike Jones (TCH-MikeJ) saying that but all he said, in response to a family member question about Mambo, was that, just like any other script, if mambo becomes a resource hog, it would have to be removed. So if you want to try Mambo, go ahead. Sorry for the confusion.

Well, I talked to a friend of mine last night and he confirmed me that installing Zope in a shared server is really really tricky if not impossible. Add to that the fact that you need to compile it and, as Rick said, that it needs mod_proxy, which cannot be installed on shared servers and I guess it's time to say goodbye to Zope/Plone On the other hand, you can take a look at this thread about CMS's here on the TCH forums. Take a look at the systems and websites mentioned there. And let me add one that I forgot when I replied to that thread: Typo3 - very very powerfull but also very very complicated. Let us know how it goes

OK, I just gave up for today. The book talks about a binary package, which is available for 2.6.x versions but I can't find any binary package for the 2.7.x versions, except for the windows one - which won't work on my computer or TCH servers, since both run Linux. So.... I tried compiling Zope from source. The usual *nix thing of ./configure && make && make install but this one is a bit more tricky. Zope has its own webserver and if you want to run it using another pre-installed webserver (which is our case), you have to do some weird mambo-jambo that is not working all that well here. If I run it with its own webserver, all goes well. Anyway, there's a bigger problem here, which is the inexistence of a binary package of the latest version - unless I'm missing something really obvious. This is probably a showstopper, because you won't be able to compile Zope on TCH servers, since the needed tools are not available on a shared server environment. The only chance I see is that you can compile it on a computer running Linux and then upload the binaries to your account - but something tells me that wouldn't work... Well, as I said, I give up for today. Tomorrow I'll give it another try.

I tried Zope once, a long time ago but I didn't like it much at the time. Perhaps because I didn't have the time nor patience to explore it properly and see its true potential but one thing is for sure: I know Zope/Plone is one of the best CMSs out there and I'd like to give it another try, so I'm downloading the latest version of both as I'm writing this and I'll give it another go. As for your question, try The Zope Book. It has a chapter dedicated to installing and starting Zope.

LOL @ Rob Trillian is pretty good, too. Perhaps even better than Gaim, in certain ways. I used to use it before switching to Linux.

Great! Glad it worked OK

Thomas, not all of those are security related patches. Besides, when a major security problem is discovered, they release a new version of Gaim. I'm not saying AOL is not going to release a new version of AIM, I'm sure they will. But IMHO, Gaim is a better instant messenger than most others just for the simple fact of being able to communicate through several different protocols, like Yahoo! Messenger, Jabber, IRC, MSN Messenger to name a few

First of all, welcome to the family! Thumbs Up Now, to answer your question: yes, Python is available and the path is /usr/bin/python but since it seems not to be working with you, perhaps you should submit a help desk ticket so one of the techs can take a look at the problem.

Since there's a lot of people here using AIM, I thought I'd let you know about this: http://www.infoworld.com/article/04/08/09/HNaolimflaw_1.html Perhaps it's time to switch to a better alternative, like Gaim? Edit: Extra info from a slashdot comment:

Both phpBB and Invision Power Board have converters available for many other forums, meaning you can migrate from other forums to one of those two without (many) problems For phpBB converters, check here: http://phpbb.com/downloads.php#converters For IPB converters, check here: http://invisionboard.com/?conversion

The onyl way I can think of is to use a timestamp to make the filename unique. So instead of having $file_name = $_FILES['userfile']['name']; you could have $file_name = time()."_".$_FILES['userfile']['name']; Also, I'm moving the thread to a more appropriate forum, for better organization.

Moving for better organization. Also, Thunderbird is only available for MacOS X. As far as I know, it doesn't work on previous versions. By the way, Thunderbird 0.8 seems to be just ready to be released. ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/ Check out the "latest-0.8" directory

Tracey, Marcel is right. You can use the MySQL ODBC driver to use your data from within Access and take advantage of what you already know. By the way, just as a side note, you can establish ODBC data sources in a Unix system, as long as you have the drivers for it. You can see that there is an ODBC connector available for a lot of Unix systems, right in the page Marcel pointed.

Angela, that's a permissions problem, quite easy to solve, don't worry You'll have to check one thing first: does that file (/home/moonlit/public_html/photos/albums/albumdb.dat.lock) already exist or is it being created by Coppermine? If it does not exist, you'll have to change the permissions of the /home/moonlit/public_html/photos/albums/ directory to 777. If the file already exists, then you need to change the file permissions to 666. Let us know if it works out

Looks interesting. I'll try it out next time someone asks me to fix their computer Thanks for the link, Dennis

Glad you solved the problem

Are you sure you can't set the include_path? I used to have two sites that were setting the include_path and they were working just fine...
