VSFTPD "500 oops cannot change directory"

Today, I am trying to configure FTP server in my virtual Linux box.After the installation and configuration, am not able to change the directory itself. It displays the message"500 OOPS CANNOT CHANGE DIRECTORY", when i was trying to change the directory.

After searching Google, I found the solution for this. It is pretty simple, I have disabled the SELinux and ran this command

"/usr/bin/setsebool -P ftp_home_dir 1 "

This solved my issue.

Setting up network between host and guest machines in VMWare

I am using Windows XP Host and have installed VMWare for Linux RHEL 5 which will be the Guest operating system.I will get the request timed out error When am trying to ping the IP address of host machine from Guest machine and vice versa.

After Googling, I found the solution and now am able to ping or connect between the host and guest machines.

The problem is quite simple.By default, i have selected the VMWare network configuration as NAT settings.After that, I have changed the settings to Bridge Networking.

Now it's Working fine...........

SQL Service Access Denied

Today, am having a problem in windows server 2003 SQL database server.Actually, I have two database engine in my server, one is Server/MSFW (Firewall) and another one is Server/SQLEXPRESS.

The server/MSFW database engine has started and connecting perfectly without issues. But, the other one Server/SQLEXPRESS has not started and unable to start manually from SQL Configuration manager and Services.msc. It gave the error message in event viewer is

"UpdateUptimeRegKey: Operating system error 5(Access is denied.)"

Finally, I found the solution on Google :

In Services.msc, Double click on the Service which one you faced issue (Server/SQLEXPRESS) and then click on the 'Log On' tab. Change the 'Log on as' option from 'This account...' to 'Local system account'.

Types of Proxies

There are several types of proxies. Proxy of each type is designed to solve its specific tasks, however they have much in common, and their abilities coincide in many features.

HTTP Proxy

It is the most widespread type of proxy servers and when you hear just "proxy", it means nothing, but this type of a server. Earlier with a help of this proxy it was only possible to view web pages and pictures and download files. Now, new program versions (ICQ, etc.) know how to work through the HTTP proxies. Browsers of any versions know how to work with this type of proxy.

SOCKS Proxy

These proxy servers know how to work practically with any type of information on the Internet (TCP/IP protocol), however for their use in programs there should be obviously indicated a ability to work with SOCKS proxy. Some additional programs are necessary for using of SOCKS proxies within a browser (browsers do not know how to work through SOCKS proxy). However, any ICQ versions (and many other popular programs) can work perfectly through the SOCKS proxies. At last, we want to pay attention, while working with socks proxies it is necessary to specify its version: socks 4 or socks 5.

CGI Proxy (anonymizer)

This type of proxy server could be accessed only with a browser. In other programs their using is complicated (and one does not need it, there are HTTP proxies). However as this type proxy is initially designed for operation through a browser, one can use it in a very simple way. Moreover, you can construct a chain from CGI proxies without any problems.

FTP proxy

This type of proxies is highly specialized and aimed for work only with FTP servers. You can use these proxies in most popular file managers (FAR. Windows Commander, etc.), download managers (CuteFTP, GetRight, etc.) and in browsers.
