Desperate for help... (paid?)

[AlanGNW]

Just set up a root server and need to install some add on components - to be honest out of my depth. Used to run a server in the past. But now it comes to it again i seem to have forgetten everything I learned!

I expected a steep learning curve - but not quite the cliff face I'm finding it!

 

Can anyone point me at some good websites to help me get to grips with it. Offer me some intense tuition, or even do it for me for a modest fee...? Pretty desperate here!

 

I am told I need to to install the following for the site thats waiting to be uploaded...

 

AJAX 2.0

 

Video Processing Component

FFmpeg http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu

FFmpeg-PHP http://ffmpeg-php.sourceforge.net

Mplayer + Mencoder http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html

flv2tool http://inlet-media.de/flvtool2

Libogg + Libvorbis http://www.xiph.org/downloads

LAME MP3 Encoder http://lame.sourceforge.net

 

Image Processing Components

 

Imagemagick

GD Library 2.0

What Operating System are you running?

 

If its Debian or Ubuntu, your in luck, I can type out the commands here

 

The majority of the above packages are available off apt.

Thanks for the reply Steve

 

I believe we have;

 

Linux 2.6.16.53-070731a

 

Fedora Core 4 with Plesk 8.0 (64 bit)

Well, if you can ssh/login to your server, the following should work:

 

yum search ffmpeg

yum install ffmpeg

 

I dont know if all the packages you mentioned are available via yum.

Google is your friend.

 

I suggest you look in the "freelance" board if you want paid help.
