Although Ive been quite, I have been continuing to experiment and play with Ubuntu  :shock:  

Ive now got my test machine setup and running pretty much everything I want;

WinApache2, MySQL, PHP, Webmin, Samba, PPTP Server and Shorewall !

But I do have a couple of problems that I cannot find the answers too:

1) I dont know who to get Webmin to load at boot time.
2) I cannot get the PPTP server to load at boot time either !
3) I cannot get the PPTP server to forward DNS / NETBios packets ??

Any help on any of these would be greatfully accepted


...and then I have to do it all again on my real server once I am happy I can replicate the results

While i dontr have specific andswers, getting a program to boot at start up is quite easy.

Use either B.U.M or system/preferences/sessions

Might be worth switching on the appropriate services with:

$ sudo sysv-rc-conf

This will allow you to edit runlevels. BE CAREFUL

1). my advice is to pick up said computer, go to step 2


2). and drop, go to step 3


3). repeat step 1

It was all sooo close...


...but now it is going backwards
I;ve lost the ability to ping from windows now
