Linux hosts file

My Eee PC 900 – Windows 2000 Professional
It seems I ended up with something entirely different from Xandros anyway. After using it for a while now, I’m much happier with windows 2000 on my EEE 900. It’s fast and runs what I need it to in a simple manner. Xandros needed some tweaking and seemed to hang often on itself.
For those interested in trying out Win2000 on their EEE, read on.

My Eee PC 900 – XP Pro
I recently bought myself a small Asus 900 PC (or netbook as they call it). It came with Xandros Linux installed on a 16gb SSD.
The original system seems to work nicely on such a small screen, and Asus has done a good job on tweaking Xandros to work properly with their drivers. But before I can enjoy the existing system I want to see what this little thing can do. After playing around for a short while I decided to try XP Pro on it.
DOS file content search command
A seemingly simple task that I could not get Windows XP search function to perform. Here is a command for creating a result where you want to search a big directory of subdirectories and files for a certain string or content with the help of DOS.
L.A.M.P – Linux Apache MySQL PHP
Many of the most successful sites on the internet runs on this open source technology server model.
An excellent model to go with when creating your own web hosting environment. A proper LAMP setup can run for many years without ever loosing any stability or performance.
