Fedora 16 automount disks

Most partitions require you to mount them when you log into your account in Fedora 16. There is a text file called /etc/fstab that manages which partitions are to be mounted and where at.

To get your partition to auto mount when booting up Fedora is to place an entry into the /etc/fstab file so that Fedora knows where to mount the partition at and what type of partition it is. When you do this that mount point will have permissions of drwxrwxrwx i.e., read write permission for all.

Run the blkid command from the terminal:

Loook a search tool for Open Office and Libre Office

If you are running Open Office or Libre Office and need to search through multiple documents then this program is for you:

If you are running Fedora then you might need the Python package Tkinter.

su
yum install tkinter

Fedora 16

Web Server and MySQL
After doing a clean install of Fedora 16 I had installed the httpd and mysqld packages. The problem I had was that when starting up Fedora 16 neither the web server or mysql was running. Going into Activities -> Applications -> Other -> Services neither httpd or mysqld was showing up. To get httpd and mysqld to show up in the Service Configuration program would be to run the following in a terminal:

systemctl enable httpd.service
systemctl enable mysqld.service
