Setting up Virtual Hosts under Apache.


Make sure that the module you need is available.

So first of all we need to check the directory of available modules to see if we have a copy of module vhosts_alias</description>

        <description>We talked about many different scripts and scripting languages.

Our verdict

C - Not a scripting language but Bob uses it for everything and loves it.

Ruby - Great language

Python - Closely follows

Perl - Minimal lines of code, messy looking language

Bash - Can be restricting and hard to read</description>

Date: 25th July, 2008
Hosted By: Michael Pope &amp; John Coombes

This is building upon last months hacking eeepc as a request from regular MLUG attendees.



Backup &amp; Restore the eeepc

Backup before you remove the unionfs and after any major changes on a regular basis.  This saves a lot of time in the future.</description>

One question raised at the workshop was, can you migrate an existing Windows Partition to VirtualBox?

Yes, (Not the OSE version of VirtualBox). Follow the instructions here
