I set shutdown time at 10 pm by using crontab but server shutdown at 1800 or 6 pm . I am using LINUX CentOS

There are MANY Linux operating systems. The main ones known are Ubuntu, Fedora, PC Linux OS, OpenSUSE, Cent OS, Linux Mint and Debian.

Debian is the mother or what Ubuntu and Linux Mint is built from. Debian is considered to be stable. Ubuntu is also supposed to be stable as is Linux Mint. The advantage of these two are ease of use. Debian, Linux Mint and Ubuntu are using .deb packages for applications to be installed.

OpenSUSE uses .rpm packages. It is also considered as stable, but not as widely used as Debian (and the other two) CentOS and Fedora.

CentOS is mainly used for Server purposes. However, in the installation, there are many types of installation options, including Desktop. CentOS is based on the Enterprise version of Red Hat. This is what mainly more and more websites are running off of as it is extremely STABLE and FAST!! So Cent OS is the free EXACT version of Red Hat. Fedora, is the test bed for Red Hat , carrying the LATEST technology being made available to anyone for free.


ALL of these operating systems, except Red Hat, are for FREE. All applications are for FREE. Just to let you know, Google also is using a Linux version for their phones now as well called Android, which you can also acquire for FREE.

The only disadvantage that used to exists until recent is that you could not play all the latest and greatest games on Linux. Now with Steam, you can play anything.

There is a myth that you could not install Windows applications on Linux. You can use Wine on Linux to install Microsoft Windows Applications. If you are having a problem, you are probably missing some files for wine to make it work properly.

Linux is also being used in cars. Check out Toyota and Mercedes Benz that is using Ubuntu. Linux is big and amazing.

Hope that answers your questions.

i think you must see this specification first, and then you will know why your centOS unabled to install areca ARC-1210 serial ATA controller, if you was see at that site, it describe that areca Software Drivers Windows 7/2008/Vista/Server 2003/XP/2000 Redhat Linux and SuSE Linux FreeBSD Solaris 10x86 UnixWare 7.1.x Netware 6.5 Mac OS 10.4.x/10.5.x/10.6.x (EFI BIOS support)



i hope this helpfull
please rate my answer
thanks

The formatting and installing the PC with the centos is similar to the other Linux operating systems .
Initially insert installation cd and boot the computer and with the help of GUI you can perform the formatting and installation .
Installing centos is similar to rest of Linux operating systems

The detailed steps can be found from tyhe following link

Hi,
Most of the systems will not start back when the system shutdown happens due to some power conflicts.
To resolve your issue, please follow the below steps:
1. Make sure that all the connections to your server is proper now.
2. Press and hold the system Power ON Switch in your server for more than 20 seconds continuously.
3. now release the power button and press it back gently once normally to start you machine.
4. In this way most of the system will be powered up.

Please follow the above steps and let me know your comments. If still the problem persists, then please provide some more information about the problem which you got in following the above steps as that will be useful to assist you back.
Thanks

can't do any thing here. you have to call Microsoft to buy a multi-user version of Access.
the Access program came with the Microsoft Suite is design for single user.

try a search for Linux OR try www.downloads.com.. you will need to set up an account but the account is FREE and no recurring charges You might even try www.redhat.com that is Linux site and should be able to find your version there if it exists.. try the PLATFORMS link

If you're using any any flavor of redhat (RHEL, CentOS, Fedora), this can be easily done using kickstart. It's a preconfiguration utility to allow a user to simply type a single one line command after booting from a cd, and completely install a whole server remotely. Comment back with your linux distro, and maybe I can give more specific details.

This model was found not to be 64bit but 32bit.

is there an error message that appears? can you check error logs? I need more information to be able to help you. I would first try to blow dust out of the fans, as it may be over heating, another possibility is that there is software on the machine that is causing it to shut down.
