Can anyone come, AND, can I ask stupid (really basic-non techie) questions and not get laughed at or shouted at?
usual crowd is very friendly. people will be happy to help, whatever the quesion may be.

What's the difference between Opensolaris and Solaris Express 11? I'm not looking to hop from version to version but rather to find an O/S that I like and stick with it.
edit: effin' link formatting. both projects are dead. one is the closed source binary of the other.
I'm not sure I understand the remarks about my router. It can't run a website nor a Wordpress blog. It's a standard D-Link running DD-WRT.look at what you can run on your router: http://ipkg.nslu2-li...t/cross/stable/
i can see apache, mysql and php, some bittorrent clients and well, a lot of stuff.

Thanks to oracle, opensolaris is pretty much a dead project, you should look at its open source fork: http://openindiana.org/
if you're not into CLI but want to try some FreeBSD flavor, you could try PC-BSD [ http://www.pcbsd.org/ ]
also justsumhelp is right, anything you want to do can be done with your router.
safe bet for a lamp server: debian stable.
what you should use (only if you like reading manuals): openbsd

it was a bit of a challenge to set up something in BKK so I won't be too optimistic about Samui but hey, who knows...
t'es la en vacances ou tu viens de t'installer pour de bon? si tu passes par Bangkok, fais moi signe.

and their website is almost impossible to find what you need from (like is the current stable version 5.6 or 6.0?)
just FTR, it is not uncommon for linux or BSD "production distros" to support several stable branches. not all companies like to be bleeding edge / go through upgrade testing and audit / have any downtime. oh and yes, I know, not being bleeding edge will sound like an insult to an archer like you

Too much penetration testing going on there already. No one would notice our lonely group

Bkk should be on this list
How about a Pattaya 2600 section ? :-)

You're using the gmail website and it is taking that long to load? If that is the case I would assume there may be a problem with Java. May want to try a re-install of your Java client
Gmail doesn't use java

mint (and probably windows) should come with a working configuration. basically that should really be as simple as starting the daemon/service and setup your network to use 127.0.0.1 as your DNS.
-
interesting stuff... can you try installing unbound which is, quoting, a "validating, recursive, and caching DNS resolver".
download page is here: http://unbound.net/download.html
don't know which OS you're using but I use it on linux, you just have to start the service and use 127.0.0.1 as your DNS. there are windows binaries available, that should work the same way. in any case, it's always good to read the manual. while you're at it, you can enable DNSSEC (see here: http://unbound.net/documentation/howto_anchor.html )

monthly shameless bump, tonight's the night.

/edit: not sure you can use different dns / users, that is a few clicks away but that would be annoying anyway... what is your OS?

darn
how would a newbie know the answer ? lol
it's really not rocket science to install and run arch but if it's your first experience with linux then it may not be the best choice, it's not the most newbie friendly distro out there. OTOH, I'll happily help if help is needed.
-
ah. someone wants to register to arch bbs
edit: we are at least two from TV over there...

you could also buy a cheap router that can run ddwrt/tomato and run your bittorrent client directly from there.
Running a bittorrent client on a Tomato router? Interesting idea! Have you actually tried that?
I have a home server/torrentbox/htpc so I did not have to but many bt clients are available via optware (rtorrent, ctorrent, transmission, etc...)
more about optware installation here: http://tomatousb.org/tut:optware-installation
packages list: http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/cross/stable/
You'd still have to have some external storage running to store the downloads on though and find a way to mount it on the router.many routers have one or more usb ports nowadays, just plug some external storage in it and you're good to go. mounting them is dead simple, there's an automount feature in tomato ! (or just add your device to fstab).

more a suggestion here... I'm the happy owner of a RT-N16 and I really like code to be super fresh so I was a bit frustrated to see the latest build stalling (as of today it's dated 11/30/2010). there is a really nice tutorial on how to build tomatousb from source here: http://tomatousb.org/tut:how-to-build-and-rebuild-tomato-for-total-noobs so I just decided to roll my own. there are many different branches (see http://repo.or.cz/w/tomato.git/heads ) and some of them are *very* active. I'm now happily running the Toastman-RT branch which has some nice additions (see http://repo.or.cz/w/tomato.git/shortlog/refs/heads/Toastman-RT ) and runs great on the RT-N16.
anyone not interested in building the stuff but interested in using it, let me know the branch, build type and revision you're interested in, I could build it for you (if you trust me (you shouldn't)).

what is this i don't even

alias back='cd $OLDPWD'
$ cd -
will do the same thing.
some nice bash tricks:
ctrl-r will let you search your history. just type what you're looking for and if there's any match, it will show up. hit ctrl-r again to go back deeper in history.
putting a ! in front of a command will re-execute this command. as it could be dangerous (think rm for example), you can do:
$ !command:p
to print it first.
still in bash, ctrl-a will bring you at the beginning of the line, ctrl-e, at the end. ctrl-w will delete the word at the left of the cursor. ctrl-u will delete everything at the left of the cursor, ctrl-k will delete everything at the right of the cursor.
