Running Linux on Virtual Box

-
Linux is one of the operating systems out there that is free no need to pay just download and install.
For new technical people that want to use this piece of software (yes it's a software not a food) you can download ubuntu, or centos (my choice or even fedora) at Distrowatch.Com where before I check always for new distribution.

Like microsoft it has many types example microsoft has windows xp, 2000, Me, 98 Vista, Windows 7
Linux has much more. Linux is like the DOS prompt then developers begin to create window managers for it so it looks like your average windows now.

Very easy to install and use.
Though you don't want to erase your 1 million dollar software pre installed in your alienware box you have the alternative to use virtualbox the free emulator (something like that in layman's term) you install this first and you can install linux inside the virtualbox like a window when you play windowed games like ragnarok, flyff perfect world and other games.

2 steps to do
Download VirtualBox at VirtualBox.Org then download the linux operating system usually this is ISO format.

You wont miss a thing while installing linux on Virtual box it's like installing your favorite games on windows.

After that go to TLDP.ORG and begin your journey.

In this website (my website you can search for configurations server stuff that I usually do.

Seeya!

Client denied by server configuration error in Apache. Wed, 01/23/2008 - 00:33 — artur Just in case if somebody else has a similar problem and can't get the Apache server working as expected. I have tried to setup proxy_mod under apache to forward HTTP traffic from AJAX Jabber client to the Bosh component running on Tigase server. It was working fine for a long time on my Gentoo server. I have recently wanted to run more tests on a separate machine and had this problem. It was a system based on the Debian distribution and the proxy_mod didn't want to work at all displaying the error message in a log file: [error] [client ::1] client denied by server configuration: proxy:http://127.0.0.1:5280/xmpp/ , referer: http://localhost/F5A379CEC35AEBCC5FFA11BA8A33CD02.cache.html All you need to do is to modify proxy.conf file for your Apache2 installation and setup proper permissions. By default the proxy is disabled for all. In my case I had to enable it just f
