how to use parallel port for serial communication
EDITED VERSION: I missed the discussion point below at first, apologies Carlosdl. You need additional hardware to do this. You cannot just configure a serial port for parallel communication or vice versa. AFAIK!! If you buy a converter (search for one on google) then you can use a parallel printer on a serial port or [...]

Mounting HDD readonly in Ubuntu 10.04
Just incorrect sequence of the parameters: mount [-t fs-type] [-o option,option...] dev mountpoint So, mount -t vfat -o ro /dev/sda2 /media/windows and mount -t ntfs -o ro /dev/sda3 /media/windows will most probably work. Also, type could be omitted – mount is quite capable to determine fs-type. Good luck, Petko

Is there any reason to think that a server using Microsoft windows will require more reboots than Linux?
The age old question! People tend to be in one camp of the other. In my experience once setup the only reboots required (generally) from a Windows server are after having updates applied. Linux servers have generally less patches applied so require less downtime on this front. Hope this helps. AndyA http://www.bytebackup.co.uk

Cancelling a print job from the Linux command line
Why do you ‘wait’ 2 sec with the cancel? If yo are testing to print small jobs, they will have gone “into the printer” before your cancel command is fired. Why don’t you start with that, and then do the more time-consuming lp command? Just an idea ….
