SCP vs. FTP SpeedIn Feburary 2016 30,
In Feburary 2016 30,
Comparing SCP and FTP is a bit uneven, because SCP has been designed to work within the same network, and FTP is an Internet protocol designed for use on remote servers. FTP also tends to be used for moving multiple files; while you can use wildcards to transfer multiple files or copy entire directories in SCP, that's not the most common use for it. All in all, SCP and FTP are about evenly matched in speed when compared on the same network and with the same file; but your mileage may vary depending on the size of the files you're transferring and the way your network is configured. Your use of command flags may change files as well; Chris Dillon, software developer and writer of the tech blog Squarism uses '-c arcfour' to speed up the SCP transfer in his testing.
Security
An SCP transfer is an individual transfer -- you use 'scp' in a terminal to copy your files or directory to the other computer, without any frills or other options. It's a one-time movement, as opposed to FTP. With FTP you log in to an FTP session and can not only copy files from your computer, but can also manage files on the remote computer. This includes the ability to rename, delete, move, and modify files from the remote computer. SCP is a secure transfer; it uses secure shell to encrypt both your data and credentials. FTP does not offer protection against anyone who may be trying to view your network credentials.
Use
SCP is a Unix command designed to be used from the terminal. FTP is more flexible in that you can use it either in a terminal or using a graphic program such as WinSCP for Filezilla. You can also use FTP in a terminal, though this isn't common among casual Internet users. Should you choose to use the terminal, you'll need to look up FTP commands. For the most part they're very similar to basic commands – for instance, to transfer a file from your computer to the remote location you would use 'put test.file.'
Alternatives
The major benefit to SCP is the security; the benefit to FTP is the control over your destination. If neither quite meets your needs, a potential solution is SFTP, which was built using both FTP and SSH — secure shell — to create a protocol that's secure and allows you to control your destination area. In terms of speed, you're not going to see any major difference between FTP and SFTP; if anything, SFTP is going to be slower due to the need to secure your transfer. SFTP is also going to be slower than SCP. SFTP can be used in the terminal or in software designed for the task, the same as FTP.

How to Install FTP Server in LinuxIn Feburary 2016 29,
In Feburary 2016 29,
Download and install the Linux package vsftp. The exact procedure will vary depending on the type and version of Linux you are running. In most cases, for example with Red Hat, Suse or Ubuntu, vsftp is a stable package that is included in the repositories that are used to update your version of Linux. In many Linux installations, vsftp is installed by default, but not started.
Configure VSFTP. The exact location and name of the configuration file will vary slightly depending on the version of Linux you are using. In Ubuntu, the configuration file is 'vsftpd.conf.' Edit this file to change the following settings:
ftpd_banner: Edits the message that is displayed when someone connects to the server.
listen: Enables vsfppd to run in stand alone mode.
xferlog_enable: Enables a detailed log of uploads and downloads.
connect_from_port_20: Defines whether PORT style connections use port 20 on the server.
hide_ids: Hides user IDs, listing all group users as 'ftp.'
max_client: Defines the maximum number of connections allowed in standalone mode.
max_per_ip: Defines the highest number of connections allowed from a particular IP in standalone mode.
anon_root: Defines the root directory for anonymous FTP users.
anonymous_enable: Enables anonymous users.
anon_mkdir_write_enable: Allows anonymous users to create directories. For this option to work, the server must have anonymous uploads enabled, and the ftp user and group must have write permissions on the directory where the new directories will be created.
Once the file vsftpd.conf has been edited to your satisfaction, save the file.
Stop the vsftpd server by typing 'sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd stop.' You should see a message confirming that the server has stopped.
Restart the vsftp server with the new configuration data in /etc/vsftpd.conf by typing 'sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd start.' You should see a message confirming that the server has started.

How to Troubleshoot Wireless Speaker IssuesIn Feburary 2016 29,
In Feburary 2016 29,
Follow the power cord to an outlet if the speakers aren't producing any sound, and confirm that they're plugged in. If they are, check that the cord is securely fitted into its socket in the speaker. Switch the plug to a different outlet to see if that solves the problem.
Look at the other parts of the system, such as the transmitter, to confirm they're also connected to a power source. If the power is on, switch out cables between the transmitter and the receiver, or connect the transmitter to a different sound source. If you're controlling the setting with a remote, replace the batteries with fresh ones to see if that makes a difference.
Adjust the settings on your sound system. The receiver may be set on mute or the sound may be turned down too low to hear. If only one speaker is silent, check that your balance control is set to provide sound to both speakers equally.
Change the position of your speakers. If your speakers operate in the 5.8-GHz band or use infrared technology to receive signals, they have to stay closer to the transmitter than a 2.4-GHz speaker. Infrared speakers also require line-of-sight positions to operate properly.
Bad Signal
Adjust the frequency controls on your system to a new setting, then tune the speakers to find a setting that provides a clear, strong signal.
Walk through your house and identify other radio sources in the 2.4-GHz range, if your wireless speakers work at that frequency. This is a standard range for devices such as cordless phones, cell phones and baby monitors, all of which can interfere with your signal, as can your microwave oven. See if turning the devices off while you're listening eliminates the interference.
Move the speakers closer to the transmitter. With less distance to travel, the signal degrades less. Less distance also reduces the chance of a barrier, such as a heavy metal appliance or a concrete wall, interfering with or distorting the signal.
Unsuccessful Pairing
Reconnect your Bluetooth device to the speaker adapter if you've recently deactivated Bluetooth on the device, because after Bluetooth is enabled, it won't reconnect with the speaker automatically. Go over the settings on your device and confirm they're set up to stream over Bluetooth. If your computer's Bluetooth is turned off, for example, nothing's going to happen.
Move your speakers closer to your device. Bluetooth's range is roughly 30 feet. If you have solid obstructions between the device and the speakers, remove them or reposition the system so that there are no obstacles in the signal's path.
Use the manufacturers' instructions to clear out the list of Bluetooth pairings on your device and speakers, then start over with the pairing process, repeating the steps you originally took to set up the wireless connection.

How to Increase FTP Transfer SpeedIn Feburary 2016 09,
In Feburary 2016 09,
As PCWorld notes, 'Hard drives are classic bottlenecks, and they definitely slow down computers.' During an FTP transfer, your hard drive is constantly reading and writing data. If you have a slower drive, those reads and writes will be slower than if you had a faster one. Upgrade to a faster hard drive to speed up FTP and computing in general. A Solid Date Drive, or SSD, costs more than regular hard drives, but it's faster.
Other Hard Drive Tips
You can speed up FTP by terminating other activities that use the hard drive extensively. These activities include downloading files and rendering video. Ensure that Windows defrags your hard drive periodically to optimize your data. By default, the Disk Defragmenter runs weekly, but you can change the schedule to run more frequently or run it manually any time.
Upload Speed Vs. Download Speed
Internet Service Providers often sell plans where upload speed is slower than download speed. If your FTP seem slow, review your ISP agreement to see how fast your upload speed is. If it’s a low transfer rate, that may explain why uploads via FTP are slower than you’d like them to be. Ask your ISP about upgrade plans if you need faster upload speed. A faster upload speed also make browser uploads and video chat sessions faster.
Work More Efficiently
The free FTP built into Windows is functional and is useful for performing simple tasks. However, you can manage large numbers of files and folders faster using a third-party FTP client such as FTP Voyager, FileZilla or CuteFTP (links in Resources). These programs let you drag and drop files between your desktop to the FTP. They make it faster to connect to FTP servers by storing login information and settings. You can also use File Manager and Internet Explorer to drag and drop files when you visit an FTP site. Many third-party FTP clients enable you to transfer files faster by using several simultaneous connections. Check your program's documentation to learn how to use this feature. Your Internet Service Provider may also have a built-in FTP client that helps you transfer files to and from your hosted website. Because these clients work using your browser, you don't have to install any software on your computer.
FTP Automation Tips
Windows 8 and 8.1, like older Windows versions, still allows you to issue FTP commands from the command line. Access it by Typing 'Windows-R' followed by 'Cmd.' Press 'Enter' to view the command prompt. Some people may use the command line FTP to run scripts that automate FTP activities. A script, for instance, may log you in automatically, switch to a specific folder and upload some files. Some third-party FTP clients, such as CuteFTP also allow you to automate FTP processes using Visual Basic and other types of scripts.

How to Pick Winning Scratch Off Lotto TicketsIn Feburary 2016 05,
In Feburary 2016 05,
Research which scratch cards are available in your state. Since lotteries are run by individual states, each state will sell a different series of scratch cards.
Find your state's lottery website by searching, for example, 'NY lotto' or whatever your state's abbreviation may be.
Find the scratch off information section on the website. This may be linked under 'scratchers' or 'instant win games.'
Once you locate the scratch off section on your state's lottery website, you must decide your budget for scratch cards. This is when it is beneficial to compare the odds on the differently priced tickets.
Generally, the higher the cost of the scratch off ticket, the higher the overall odds of winning. This is the chance of winning any type of prize, be it simply your money back or the jackpot. For example, for a $1 Loose Change ticket from the NY lottery, the overall odds of winning are 1 in 4.71.
Meanwhile, a Win $1,000,000 a Year for Life ticket costs $30 and has overall winning odds of 1 in 2.93. Basically, you are paying more for all of the additional ways to win prizes.
A good way to compare tickets is to see which prize has the best odds of being won. On the Loose Change ticket noted above, that payout is $1, a refund of your purchase, with odds 1 in 8.59. On the Million a Year ticket, it has a $35 payout, with odds 1 in 6.58. That means more winning tickets will pay out $35 than any other, even ones that simply refund the money. The Million a Year ticket gives you a better chance of winning more than a refund.
It is important to note that just because you are paying more money for better overall odds, it does not mean you are getting better jackpot odds. If you are looking to win any big prize, then a lower stakes ticket is probably a better option because the odds of winning the smaller jackpots are better. This is clearly detailed with the two examples above, with 1 in 48,000 winning the $500 Loose Change grand prize, and 1 in 3.5 million winning the Million a Year for Life grand prize. Note: in few other circumstances does it make statistical sense for you to purchase a $1 ticket, as you are buying the worst possible odds of getting your money back. States make most of their instant game revenue from selling $1 tickets.
Expect to see yourself winning more of the middle-tier prizes as you pay more for scratch cards. Here is another good example with a $10 Holiday Cash Word. As anticipated, the overall odds are right between the $1 and $30 cards. But unlike the $1 card, the chance of winning double your money ($20) is actually better than only getting a refund.
It is important to note that not all cards have the same odds for the same price. This is because of the varieties in payouts. For example, compare two $5 NY lotto cards.
The first example is a card called Win $2,000 a Week for Life. The NY Lotto knows that the prospect of winning for life is very tempting, so they charge slightly more for the odds, with overall odds of 1 in 5.09. The average overall odds on a $5 card are 1 in 4.817, so anytime you see odds worse than that, you know you are paying more for a chance at a better payout. However, you'll need to consider whether the ratio of a decrease in overall odds to an increase in payouts is worth it.
The second example is a New York Poker $5 scratch off ticket. Because there are so many ways to win, the overall odds are nicely discounted at 1 to 4.08. Also, the likelihood of winning $5 on this ticket is greater than winning $5 on Win for Life (odds 1 in 10 versus odds 1 in 11.59). Even though the price of both tickets is equal, the NY Poker ticket is statistically 'better' than the Win for Life ticket.

The Best Website Hosts for Small BusinessIn Feburary 2016 05,
In Feburary 2016 05,
Your web host should be able to provide you with a clear pricing sheet for a complete hosting solution. Web hosting can be complex and many factors contribute to the type of hosting package you need. Before signing up for a hosting plan, it should be absolutely clear what your monthly price will be and what items may impact your pricing as your web site business grows. For example, some hosting companies limit how much bandwidth or data transfer you can use and charge very high overage fees for breaking those limits. Any change in pricing should be clearly laid out before you sign up.
Dedicated Support
Web hosting is a technical process that requires professional and knowledgeable support from your web hosting company. You should have access to support via a toll-free phone number as well as an easy-to-use online ticket system. Responses to your inquiries should happen promptly. Additionally, the best web hosting companies typically have live technical support via the toll-free number, available 24 hours a day. The hosting company should provide reliable service, and in the case that the server goes down, you need to know your web host will be able to address the problem as soon as possible.
Wide Array of Features
Small business web sites may need very little in terms of advanced features. However, your web host should be able to provide you access to more advanced features on demand as your site grows. For instance, you should have access to a database, secure server, control panel and web statistics to monitor your traffic should you need these items. In many cases, these items are already included in your hosting plan, or sometimes there may be additional fees to add these to your plan. It is important, though, to make sure your company has a wide array of features available to avoid having to transfer to a new host should you require any advanced features.
Go Direct
The best web hosting companies will own and operate their own data centers and servers. Sometimes, web hosting companies pose as being and independent company but are really just reselling another web hosting company’s services. This can cause delays when you are waiting for service items to be addressed. Why report a problem to a middle man when you could just report the problem to the source directly? Make sure that your hosting company is in control of their own servers and data centers; this control is crucial when it comes to addressing technical support inquiries and resolving problems.

Which Computer Languages Are Used to Create Websites?In Feburary 2016 02,
In Feburary 2016 02,
Hyper-text Markup Language, called HTML, is the most basic language for the creation of a website. Using HTML, you can create the basic elements of a page, including the header and body, tables, paragraphs and text. HTML is a tag-based language, which defines elements using tags enclosed in less than (
) symbols.
CSS
Cascading Style Sheets allow you fine control over formatting elements in a website. Using CSS, you can define complex logic for formatting of elements on your site, from special backgrounds to how different sections fit together and flow. You can modify the color and style of fonts, change how hyperlinks work and format bullets. CSS works with HTML to allow the defining and application of classes, which can then be referenced in the HTML page to designate the style of the HTML element.
JavaScript
JavaScript is slightly more advanced than HTML and CSS. It is used to create action within a website, such as what happens when you click your mouse or scroll over an image. JavaScript is frequently used to perform input checking as well. This allows the Web designer to validate the input in a form field prior to sending the information to the server.
ColdFusion and PHP
Both ColdFusion and PHP are Web development languages designed to facilitate interaction with a database on the server. These languages allow the developer to pull information from a database and display it on a site. In addition, they can be used to update or insert new information into a database based on form inputs. Both languages can be seamlessly integrated with HTML, CSS and JavaScript to create complex websites. No special software is required to write these languages, but each requires an application to be installed to interpret the language and furnish results. Adobe's ColdFusion application is a commercial application, while PHP is Open Source.
SQL
Structured Query Language is a language used primarily for accessing data in databases. This language is required to use the functionality of ColdFusion or PHP on a website. Some common database applications used with websites are Microsoft's SQL Server, Oracle's Sybase and MySQL databases. Of these, MySQL is the only Open Source application. Again, writing SQL does not require special software, but the databases must be installed on the servers for the website.

How to Change Web Hosting Service ProvidersIn Feburary 2016 01,
In Feburary 2016 01,
Do your homework when deciding which host to move your website to. Moving your site to a new host is a lot of work so you don't want to have to do it too often. Choose a new web host that offers room for expansion if your business grows.
Give yourself plenty of time to make the change over to the new host. Even though it means one month of double expenses, it is a good idea to start services with your new host one month before discontinuing services with your old host. This will give you 30 days to work out any problems at the new site.
Pack up your business at your current hosting site by making copies of all of your web pages and files on CD. Arrange to have services you were using and don't need any more to be disconnected at the end of the month.
Notify your domain name registrar of your move. This is the company that you registered your ecommerce site name with. They need to know the domain name and IP address for both your old web host and your new one.
Set up your site at your new web host by uploading all of the pages and files you packed onto CD. Start any new services that you need in your new home.
Notify your customers of your new email address if it changed when you moved to the new hosting site. Set up mail forwarding with your new web host to ensure that any mail sent to your old email address will be forwarded.

Text Size in Zen CartIn Feburary 2016 01,
In Feburary 2016 01,
This Web cart system uses CSS, or Cascading Style Sheets, to manage the look and feel of your site. CSS allows you to control the size, font face, color and other properties of your Zen Cart text by changing just one place: the style sheet. The HTML pages get their layout information from this file, instead of from individual tags in the pages themselves. In Zen Cart, the primary style sheet is found in “/includes/templates/YOUR-TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css,” where “YOUR-TEMPLATE” is the template you have chosen for your Zen Cart installation.
Font Size
You can change text size using the “font-size” property. In most style sheets, you have several options as to how to specify the size. You can list fonts as xx-small, x-small, small, medium, large, x-large and xx-large, where medium is equal to 16 pixel font. You can also specify the font size in pixels or centimeters, but this can cause problems with usability in some versions of Internet Explorer. The preferred method of changing font size in Zen Cart is to set your text to a percentage of the parent font size, such as 62.5 percent, or the equivalent of 10 pixels if the default font is set to medium.
Em
Fonts size may also be set in em. An em is a unit taken from old-fashioned typography, and is a horizontal space equal to the width of a lowercase “m” in a particular font size. In default 16 pixel medium font, one em is equivalent to 16 pixels, but in an 18 pixel font, one em is equivalent to 18 pixels. You can set headers or other special text properties using em in relation to your other settings. For instance, if you set the main font to 62.5 percent, a header set to 1.4 em would produce a 14 pixel font, since the main font is displayed at only 10 pixels high. By using this relative system for setting headers, you can maintain the size relationship between all the text elements in your Zen Cart, even if you change the main font size.
Other Font Properties
The font tag allows you to change more than just the size of your text in Zen Cart. You can also change the font family by using the “font-family” tag, followed by either a generic family, such as “serif,” or a specific family, such as “Arial.” You can change text style from normal to italic or oblique by using the “font-style” tag, followed by the preferred style.
Considerations
You don't have to use individual tags to change font properties in Zen Cart. You can also choose to specify all the properties in one declaration. For instance, if you wanted to change the font to 62.5 percent using the Arial and sans serif families with normal text, you would enter “font: 62.5% arial, sans-serif.” This makes your CSS slightly neater and easier to navigate.

How to Upload Files in Binary ModeIn Feburary 2016 01,
In Feburary 2016 01,
Open your FTP program. If you are using a desktop-based FTP program, find it on your computer and open it. If you are using Web-based software, go to your website's control panel and log in to the FTP section.
Find the FTP settings and change the transfer mode. To ensure you are uploading in binary mode, you have to change the settings in your FTP client to 'binary.' The way to do this depends on the FTP program you are using. Search for the 'Options' or 'Preferences' menu and then 'Transfer mode.' Once you find this, select 'binary.' In some FTP clients, you can select 'binary' at the bottom of the screen without needing to open any additional menus.
Transfer your files. Once the setting is saved, you can use the FTP client to transfer your files. On one side of the screen you will see the files that are saved on your computer. The other side will represent the Web space that you are uploading to. Select the files you want to upload, and click the arrow or 'transfer' button. You will know your upload has been successful when you see the files on the side of the screen that represents your Web space.
