…_If you configured everything correctly, you should be greeted by the WordPress//BBPress configuration page. Follow the prompts, and you will have a functional WordPress blog installed on a Ubuntu desktop machine.

But what if you do all that, surf from another machine and get no images or CSS?

If you configure your blog from a local browser, it will probably set your blog’s address as http://127.0.0.1/ or whatever your hostname is. This is fine if you only want to view it from your host/test machine, but if you want to view it over the network, you’ll need to change it.

Go Options in the WordPress admin interface, and then to General, and change the blog’s URL to the IP address (or domain name is youre running a DS)

2 solutions to this:

the problem of SKU011.CAB
change setup.ini
CDCACHE=0
==or==

  1. Go into Registry Editor (Start, Run, “regedit”).
  2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, Software, Microsoft, Office, 11.0, Delivery. There should be only 1 directory under Delivery, which is your DownloadCode .
  3. Select that directory.
  4. On the right side of the screen, right-click on CDCache.

The page file is created during the Windows XP installation and resides on the hard drive. Page files are measured in megabytes. The size of the page file is based on how much RAM is installed in the computer. By default, XP creates a page file which is 1.5 times the amount of installed RAM and places it on the hard drive where XP is installed.

I was having a hard time building recovery ISOs

I use 2 different methods of deleting my pagefuile prior to multicasting an image

1) i load a *nix liveCD, drive down to the file itself and delete it.

==or==

2. I set my PC to delete the pagefile upon exit.

Delete the XP Pagefile
Your pagefile is extra, RAM-like storage on your hard drive. It maintains its data even when your computer looses power. The pagefile can contain unencrypted passwords as well as other sensitive data.

  1. Go to Start –> Run and type “regedit” (without quotes.)
  2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management.
  3. Modify or add the REG_DWORD entry “ClearPageFileAtShutdown” (without the quotes) and set its value equal to 1.
  4. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

I was having problems viewing the computers on my workgroup. I checked to see whether we were all on the same workgroup, and we were. I couldn’t see shared printers, either.

Things to check

1. Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP

Right click on Local Area Network > Properties > TCI/IP properties > Advanced > WINS > Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP > Ok

2. Start the workstation service

Go to start > Run > services.msc > double click workstation > in the general tab – startup type should be automatic and services should be started (if it is stopped)

3. Be sure these services are started on all PCs involved [start>run>services.msc>OK:

  • Computer Browser
  • DHCP Client
  • DNS Client
  • Network Connections
  • Network Location Awareness
  • Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
  • Server
  • TCP/IP Netbios helper
  • Workstation

All of these services should be started, and their startup type should be automatic (or perhaps manual).

4. run network set up wizard.

you’ve uninstalled a program but the corresponding entry in the Add or Remove Programs listing hasn’t be removed. This may be due to incomplete uninstall or poorly designed uninstaller itself.

To manually remove the orphaned entries from the Add or Remove Programs applet,

  • Click Start, Run and type regedit.exe
  • Navigate to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Uninstall

  • Select the subkey that you want to delete
  • Right-click on the subkey and choose Delete
  • Close Registry Editor

=OR=

To remove entries that are not in the list, but your installers insists ARE,  follow these steps:

  • Click Start, Run and type regedit.exe
  • Navigate to the required key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \*PROG*
  • Select the subkey that you want to delete
  • Right-click on the key and choose Delete
  • Close Registry Editor

If you get this error when setting up your domain (Unknown Error 80072f05), check your server’s date and time. That should clear it up
