Linux supports the ISO 9660 (CD-ROM) file system with Rock Ridge extensions (formerly known as "High Sierra". Several vendors provide Debian GNU/Linux in this format. Warning: When installing from CD-ROM, it is usually not a good idea to choose dselect's cdrom access method. This method is usually very slow.

Files under the directory /usr/local/ are not under the control of the Debian package management system. Therefore, it is good practice to place the source code for your program in /usr/local/src/. For example, you might extract the files for a package named "foo.tar" into the directory /usr/local/src/foo. After you compile them, place the binaries in /usr/local/bin/, the libraries in /usr/local/lib/, and the configuration files in /usr/local/etc/.

Yes. You can boot the Debian installation system from a set of files you can download from our FTP site and its mirrors. You can download a small CD image file, create a bootable CD from it, install the basic system from it and the rest over the network. For more information please see http://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/. You can also download even smaller floppy disk image files, create bootable diskettes from them, start the installation procedure and get the rest of Debian over the network.

present, installing packages directly from tape is not supported. One can however, use tar, cpio, or afio to copy Debian archive files onto a tape, then copy them onto your local disk for installation. In the same vein, floppy disks containing "tar" files would have to be copied onto a local disk before they could be managed with the Debian package tools.

Author: Alex Chaffee (http://www.jguru.com/guru/viewbio.jsp?EID=3) The Tomcat Apache HOWTO has been revised and placed on the Tomcat web site. Here's a way to do it: Getting, Installing and starting Tomcat Download Tomcat from here: Get Tomcat Installing and starting Tomcat This is a breeze. It consists of the following steps: Unzip "jakarta-tomcat.zip" to the root drive. The zip automatically makes a "jakarta-tomcat" folder and extracts to it.

Linux supports the ISO 9660 (CD-ROM) file system with Rock Ridge extensions (formerly known as "High Sierra"). Several vendors provide the Debian distribution in this format; these vendors have directly supported the Debian project: I-Connect Co.: I-Connect provides the master FTP system used by Debian developers, and its network connection and system administration.

The Debian packages can be installed from a hard disk on your system, either IDE, EIDE, SCSI (including Jaz drives), or a drive connected through a parallel port. Kernel support must of course be available for the type of drive you have. The appropriate drivers are: CONFIG_SCSI for SCSI drives (including Jaz drives), along with one of the (many) drivers for your particular SCSI interface.

If you run mvn integration-test, the Maven Cargo plugin will download and install Tomcat and run the integration tests against it. If you want to see your project running in a server, you have two options: Run mvn jetty:run-war - this will fire up a Jetty instance and it will be available at http://localhost:8080. Run mvn cargo:start -Dcargo.wait=true and your application will be deployed to Tomcat and available at http://localhost:8081/applicationname-version.

Debian created by the Debian project, is a widely used distribution of free software developed through the collaboration of volounteers from around the world.

quot;Tomcat is a free, open-source implementation of Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies developed under the Jakarta project at the Apache Software Foundation. Tomcat is available for commercial use under the ASF license from the Apache web site in both binary and source versions." They have client software available for a number of operating systems.

You'll need to fix the library problem before trying to install Domino if memory serves me, and the second problem needs to be fixed before trying to run the HTTP task, though it is best fix it as soon as Domino files have been installed. a) download IBM's JRE 1.3.1 for Linux on Intel from their website. Unpack it (using ark or tar zxvf on the command line) to a place of you choice - I chose /opt/lotus/ibmjava/jvm just to keep it near the Domino install. No "install" is required.

Debian packages on remote hosts can be installed via the Network File System using a SLIP, PPP, PLIP or Ethernet connection. SLIP and PPP require that the the netbase and netstd packages be installed first. These packages are not part of the Debian base system, and must be obtained by one of the other methods described in this section.

Copy the Debian packages onto formatted floppy disks. Either a DOS, the native Linux "ext2", or the "minix" format will do; one just has to use a mount command appropriate to the floppy that's being used. Short MS-DOS filenames: If you are trying to place Debian package files onto MS-DOS formatted disks, you will find that their names are generally too long, and do not conform to the MS-DOS 8.3 filename limitation.

Install the Debian tool dpkg-ftp. This package is currently installed in the directory project/experimental at ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ and its mirrors. To do install a package, see notes on dpkg. Then invoke the program dselect, which will call dpkg-ftp for you, guide you through the selection of packages, then install the packages, without every downloading the packages themselves to your machine. This method is designed to save the user both disk space and time.

Not for the faint of heart! Also, Jun Inamori has written a great tutorial walkthrough on compiling and installing Apache with Tomcat and JServ at http://www.oop-reserch.com/tomcat_3_1/.

Author: Serge Knystautas (http://www.jguru.com/guru/viewbio.jsp?EID=100012) Question originally posed by Pablo Rodriguez (http://www.jguru.com/guru/viewbio.jsp?EID=101122 The Tomcat architecture allows for various front-ends or "connectors" to its servlet engine. In Tomcat 3.1, there are connectors for HTTP (to function as a stand-alone web server), IIS, and Netscape.

Debian GNU/Linux is a particular distribution of the Linux operating system, and numerous packages that run on it. In principle, users could obtain the Linux kernel via the Internet or from elsewhere, and compile it themselves. They could then obtain source code for many applications in the same way, compile the programs, then install them into their systems. For complicated programs, this process can be not only time-consuming but error-prone.
