We are testing out an intranet at our company using Red Hat LinuX 5.2. The only way that I can get to the /home/httpd/html directory is by uploading my HTML files to a personal directory and then copying them to the html directory which takes some time. Is there anyway that I can ftp them directly to the actuall site? ThanX<br>
<br>
PS. how can I get the eyes in X to go away?<br>
<br>
ThanX again
 
1. create a soft link from your home directory to<br>
the /home/httpd/html directory.<br>
<br>
this is just one suggestion.
 
Create a user for JUST intranet stuff. make this user's /home/html the same as the URL you're using for the Intranet.<br>
<br>
This also lets someone else cover for you if you fall off the earth<br>

 
Ditto to the previous two posts about your directory question. My two cents on your xeyes question...<br>
I assume :) you are referring to AfterStep and the eyes in the docking bar. This bar is called wharf. Each user shares a single configuration file that should be /usr/share/afterstep/wharf. If you want users to have individual configurations, copy this wharf file to each users ~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep directory. Use your favorite text editor to edit the file. Look for the Xeyes entry and comment the line out by using a #. The line will be similar to *Wharf Xeyes nil Swallow &quot;xeyes&quot; xeyes &. This site has a good explanation about customizing afterstep: <A HREF=" TARGET="_new"><br>
I've only played around with afterstep, so if your running a different windows manager, maybe someone else has some ideas.
 
If the eyes are anywhere else on the screen; just right-click on them & tell them to &quot;close/die/whatever similar option is available&quot; that should take care of them. <p>-Robherc<br><a href=mailto:robherc@netzero.net>robherc@netzero.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>*nix installation & program collector/reseller.

Do you copy with the same userid you are ftping with ?<br>
may be a userid problem (permissions)<br>
