Title: Setting up Ventrilo
Post by: Chauvin on November 19, 2008, 06:43:02 AM

Hi there,

I was trying the HowTo's and setup a Ventrilo part of SME.   Since the link is broken as described on the wiki, I downloaded the lastest version of ventrilo and burned it to CD.   

Now here is my question... and I know I am going to sound very silly by asking.. but here goes.

How do I get the the downloaded file from the CD drive to the directory that I created on SME Server.

Thanks.

P.S. keep up the good work on provide a product like this.   So nice that people are willing to put work into this to provide a great service.

Try this:

Code: [Select]

mkdir -p /media/cdrom
mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
cp -R /media/cdrom/* [final_location]
umount /dev/cdrom

Replace [final_location] with the destination folder.

Hi there,

the instructions above worked beatifully, thank you again.  I then followed the How To's found here http://wiki.contribs.org/Ventrilo

Now, after I rebooted the server and log into the server I figured the first spot was to check the log, and found this in the log

sudo -u ventrilo /opt/ventrilo/ventrilo_srv - Command not found

Assuming it came from this run file you create within the How To's?

#!/bin/sh
exec 2>&1
exec sudo -u ventrilo /opt/ventrilo/ventrilo_srv -f/opt/ventrilo/3784

Now after reading some posting, some suggested to use SU instead of sudo, which I tried then i received the follow log entry...

su - please use --help for commands

So any ideas?
