New Server - apache will not serve outside LAN Just fyi, you nmap from external should have been done on all ports not by specifying a port as unfortunately the above external port scan provides us with very little information, just for future reference :) |

Installed Ubuntu 13.04 but PC still tries to boot up win7 @user164393 Correct, remove one of the HDD's (decide which one you want to use for Ubuntu and remove the other one), then go through the install again. Once you finish the installation and you can boot into/ use Ubuntu then you can decide if you would like to put the other HDD back into the computer. I think having 2 HDD's in the computer during the install is confusing you when you go through the install options so let's try it this way. Let us know how it goes. |

Installed Ubuntu 13.04 but PC still tries to boot up win7 @user164393 You seem to have two HDD's in your computer, /dev/sda (128 GB) and /dev/sdb (2 TB). Windows looks like it is living on /dev/sdb and I believe your issue may be your boot loader. Which HDD do you want to install Ubuntu on? I would recommend in your case removing the HDD you are not going to use for now, and trying to do the install again with only 1 HDD in your computer. Once you have done the install successfully then you can go ahead and put the other HDD back into your computer and do what you please with it. |

Installed Ubuntu 13.04 but PC still tries to boot up win7 @user164393 When you do the installation you will need to format the entire HDD by choosing erase entire disk and install ubuntu, it doesn't look like you have formatted the entire HDD hence the hassles with booting into Ubuntu. Have a look at this thread for help - askubuntu.com/questions/159601/how-do-i-format-my-entire-hdd |

Is there an alternative to the skype service? Yes, compile the version of libglew.* you need and then try and reinstall goober as you did earlier. You shouldn't have to move libglew but if goober is looking for it in a different location then create a symlink rather than move it :) |

New Server - apache will not serve outside LAN Use nmap to do a port scan on the server itself nmap localhost then do a port scan from outside the LAN to see what ports are showing as open, if you like post the results. |

Is there an alternative to the skype service? You said you have a missing dependency, libglew1.5 - you need to compile glew from source, then try and recompile goober. |

How do I remove infected files in a Ubuntu server samba share? You can remove the 'viruses' by logging into the Ubuntu Server command line in front of the actual server or via ssh if enabled. Navigate to the share from the command line and then remove the relevant viruses. Do you need assistance doing this? |

Is there an alternative to the skype service? There are 4/5 alternatives there including using Pidgin have you tried them all? If you get an unresolved dependency then perhaps you should troubleshoot resolving that required dependency - packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libglew1.5 It looks like the latest version of that is 1.8 but you could compile the exact version you need yourself for example, or look into the other alternatives provided in that thread. You could also bring up your concerns in that thread as to avoid duplicates :) |

Error with tar command, cannot install xampp 1.8.1 on Ubuntu 13.04 Perhaps this could have been a comment instead of an answer. You have made too many assumptions. |
