I was recently asked a question about port numbers on web servers. This answer will apply to any DMZ host, whether http, ftp, telnet or ssh.
The question as phrased was:
If you decided to use a different port for your web server (say port 8080), how would a user make requests to your web server?

When using the “body background” HTML tag, you might find that smaller images tile (repeat) across the whole page.
You can use this css to prevent this.
<style type=”text/css”>
body
{
background:url(‘your-photo.gif’) no-repeat;
}
</style>
Connect to your server then navigate to modules\mod_footer\tmpl\default.php
Then, using a text editor, such as Windows (eeurgh) Notepad,remove the lines:
<div><?php echo JText::_( ‘FOOTER_LINE2’ ); ?></div>
Ever had that problem where the ant.com toolbar appear in your HTTP user Agent? You tried to find it and remove it; you tried “add/remove programs” in Windows; you looked in Firefox Addons – but you couldn’t find it!
Try this:
- Open Firefox and in the address bar, enter “about:config” then hit enter.
- Now, in the filter, enter “general:useragent”
- You might find your user agent, containing the ant.com toolbar. If this is the case, right-click on the entry and choose “reset”.
(Always excercise caution when working with advanced settings).
