			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of my friends asked me , how he could mount an  .iso  image in Ubuntu , via commandline , even though he knew how to mount it with iso mounter in ubuntu. So here is a step by step procedure to mount an iso image .</p>
<p>1.Fire up your gnome -terminal from  accessories -&gt;terminal .</p>
<p>2.Make a directory in /mnt /disk with root privilege ,  <em># sudo mkdir -p /mnt/disk .</em></p>
<p>3.Use mount command to mount the iso to the new directory , <em># sudo mount -o loop filename.iso /mnt/disk  .</em></p>
<p>4.Now you have successfully mounted your .iso image , to list the files in the iso image change to that dir using cd command</p>
<p># cd /mnt/disk</p>
<p>5.Now to list the files and folders use the ls command , #ls</p>
<p>You are done , now you can use the iso image just like a directory .</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Basic Linux Commands worth knowing ..]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Linux is an operating system  with a powerful shell , which enables you to do almost anything ,even though  that couldn&#8217;t be done with a GUI. Linux possess a hierarchical, unified filesystem which consist of directories and files. I wrote this tutorial mainly for noobs , keeping things simple . First thing you should remember is that bash commands are case-sensitive . &#8220;LS &#8220;is not same as &#8221; ls &#8220;. Secondly don&#8217;t try to learn everything in a single day . Take your own time .. So let&#8217;s get started .</p>
<p>Take time to understand the following chart , everything in explained in detail , it shows hierarchical filesystem of Linux os.</p>
<p><a href="http://reviewglitz.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/linux-filesystem1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1567" title="linux filesystem" src="http://reviewglitz.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/linux-filesystem-600x486.jpg" alt="linux filesystem" width="600" height="486" /></a></p>
<p>To start , fire your terminal , if you are using Ubuntu Linux , take accessories and from it select terminal . Here i mention the usage after the &#8221; -&#8221; symbol.</p>
<p>Commands :</p>
<p>list directories -ls</p>
<p>change directory -cd  dir</p>
<p>Make a directory &#8211; mkdir directory-name</p>
<p>Remove a file -rm filename</p>
<p>To change file-permissions use chmod and chown (  chown for changing owners and chmod for changing mode of file )</p>
<p>Usage &#8211; chmod 777 filename .</p>
<p>4-read</p>
<p>2- write</p>
<p>1-write ( for allowing read only functionality to all use chmod 444 , if you need to add write functionality too add (4+2) , ie , chmod 666 .</p>
<p>Remove a directory &#8211; rm -R directory</p>
<p>Remove all files in a directory &#8211; rm *</p>
<p>To view the contents of a file &#8211; cat filename</p>
<p>To rename a file &#8211; mv old filename new filename ( same can be used for changing from one directory to another ).</p>
<p>To redirect output to a file you can use the symbol &#8220;  &gt; &#8220;. For eg : Inorder to paste &#8220;reviewglitz.com &#8221; to a file name reviewglitz just issue the command-</p>
<p>reviewglitz.com &gt; reviewglitz.txt  in the terminal .</p>
<p>To open a text-editor type &#8220;nano filename &#8220;, nano is a nice text-editor for beginners .</p>
<p>To view your computer&#8217;s ip address and network properties &#8211; ifconfig (identical command for windows is ipconfig).</p>
<p>To view open connections in your computer -netstat</p>
<p>Processes in the computer can be listed with the command -ps</p>
<p>To kill a process issue &#8211; kill pid , where pid is a number you see when you issue ps command .</p>
<p>To list background jobs -bg</p>
<p>To bring a job to foreground -fg job</p>
<p>To connect to a server issue the Linux command &#8211; ssh -l username  ipaddress of server</p>
<p>To search text use the &#8220;grep&#8221; command in bash -grep &#8220;pattern &#8220;  files</p>
<p>To find files in your computer use the commands &#8211; whereis filename and locate filename</p>
<p>To view the date &#8211; cal or date</p>
<p>To show disk-usage df</p>
<p>To print the current logged in user &#8211; whoami</p>
<p>To show distro name and  version -uname</p>
<p>To find whether a host is alive use ping &#8211; ping ipaddress</p>
<p>To download a file use wget &#8211; wget filename</p>
<p>Press control +C to halt current command and control + Z to take the command to background .</p>
<p>To compress and decompress file use command tar &#8211; :</p>
<p>for .tar files &#8211; tar cf  filename</p>
<p>for tar.gz files &#8211; tar czvf filename</p>
<p>for tar.bz2 files -tar cjvf filename</p>
<p>The thing you should note is that compression and decompression commands vary only in the letter &#8221; c &#8221; and  &#8221; x &#8220;. If you need to decompress use the command combined with &#8221; x &#8221; and for compression use &#8220;c &#8220;.</p>
<p>Please post your comments , so I can rectify my errors .</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I know you need to shift to Linux from Windows as you can&#8217;t afford the side effects of windows. If you are having this feeling then this article is really for you. Like you i too, was a user of Windows and decided to shift to Linux when i was fed up with it. This was mainly because of the virus attacks and lack of stability of Windows . You know once i installed windows XP four times a day. One of my friends advised me to take a look at Linux . I have taken his advice , but soon came back to windows , when i found it was not right for me. But more and more nasty windows events took place and i made my mind to shift to Linux and the first Linux distribution in my life was Knoppix. Later i came to use Ubuntu and the journey in my Linux world continues.<br />
Let me say, these days almost all programs which are for Windows are available for linux, atleast something like that do exist. Here are a list of few programs you should not miss when shifting to linux.<br />
1. vlc player for linux , Mplayer also recommended.<br />
2.Mozilla Firefox (available by default for most distributions).<br />
3.OpenOffice<br />
4.If you are an IRC freak then consider, Xchat<br />
5.Interested in Virtualization , Virtual Box from Sun is a good option.<br />
6.Amarok Music Player<br />
7.For bittorrent clients consider Deluge , Azure, or Ktorrent .<br />
8.K3B for cd burning.<br />
9.GIMP image editor<br />
10.Gwenview , default image viewer for KDE.<br />
11.Text Editor Nano or Emacs or Vi(advanced).</p>
<p>Personally it is best to start with  Ubuntu and if needed you can change to other advanced distros. Now Ubuntu 9.10 is available.If you are too skeptic about your Windows XP, then there is smooth shuffle program for linux which transforms your old XP to a virtual machine. Download any Linux distribution and feel the spirit of free software.<br />

		<description><![CDATA[Download a website in linux,Change root password,play videos in RAR,five ways to logout from bash,Browsing from text mode]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4>1.Download a website</h4>
<p>Here is a simple way to download a whole website without actually visiting all the pages.First up all go into the directory you wish to download the whole website using the command line and type in the following</p>
<p>wget-r-p-k-E http://www.example.com/dir/<br />
Note  -E is to create .html extensions to XHTML or text files.Omit if not needed.It is however not possible for all type of sites  :-)</p>
<h4>2.Five ways to logout from bash</h4>
<p>1.logout<br />
2.exit<br />
3.CTRL+d<br />
4.export TMOUT=1<br />
5 kill -9 $$<br />
Dont use the fifth one when you are the root since it will kill some essential processes.</p>
<h4>3. To change the root password</h4>
<p>The first step is to reboot the system.When grub loads up, move the arrow key up/down to highlight and select the Linux kernel and press e to edit the GRUB commands before booting.Next, move the arrow key up/down and select the Linux kernel and press e again<br />
Give a single space and then type the word &#8216;single&#8217; at the end of<br />
of the line.Hit ENTER key.Then press b to boot up with the single keyword, which will boot Linux into single user maintenance mode.Now you will get a command prompt ready to accept your commands.Voila!!!! you are done.Now just enter the &#8216;passwd&#8217; comand to reset your password(without prompting for the older one <img src='http://reviewglitz.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' />  ).Reboot and you are now the ROOT.However this is not working in all linux distros.</p>
<h4>4.Play videos in RAR file without extracting</h4>
<p>Just type in command line<br />
unrar p -inul /path/to/movie_folder/movie.name.r00 | vlc -<br />
Video will start playing from your vlc player in just a few seconds.<br />
You can use other players instead of VLC if you wish.</p>
<h5>5.Text based browsing</h5>
<p>You may use elinks or links in text mode  to browse websites  from a console.Here&#8217;s how to get started</p>
