How to switch to a different PHP version?
#cd /var/www

SiteGround has implemented a unique server setup that allows each customer to choose which version of PHP to use for his / her account. What is more, the customer can even use different PHP versions for different directories in one and the same hosting account. The PHP versions currently supported are: PHP 4.4 PHP 5.0, PHP 5.1, PHP 5.2, PHP 5.3, PHP 6.0 and a special secure version of PHP 5.2 with Suhosin patch.

In order to change the PHP version for your account, follow these steps. Go to cPanel, File Manager and choose "Web Root (public_html/www)". There create a new file (or edit the existing one) called .htaccess and add the following line:

To switch to PHP 4.4:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php4 .php .php4 .php3

To switch to PHP 5.0:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php .php5 .php4 .php3

To switch to PHP 5.1:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php51 .php .php5 .php4 .php3

To switch to PHP 5.2:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php52 .php .php5 .php4 .php3

To switch to PHP 5.3:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php53 .php .php5 .php4 .php3

To switch to PHP 6.0:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php6 .php .php5 .php4 .php3

To switch to the secure PHP 5.2 with Suhosin patch:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php52s .php .php5 .php4 .php3

This setting will apply recursively to all of the subdirectories. In case you'd like to have a different version of PHP in a subdirectory, create a new .htaccess file in it with the directive for the desired PHP version in it.

Basic Samba configuration,

What is Samba?

Samba is software that can be run on a platform other than Microsoft Windows, for example, UNIX, Linux, IBM System 390, OpenVMS, and other operating systems. Samba uses the TCP/IP protocol that is installed on the host server. When correctly configured, it allows that host to interact with a Microsoft Windows client or server as if it is a Windows file and print server.

Step by step To install and configure the Samba on linux:

Download and install the below packages in Linux Box:

samba-client-3.0.9-1.3E.15
samba-3.0.9-1.3E.15
samba-swat-3.0.9-1.3E.15
samba-common-3.0.9-1.3E.15

#vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
####Simple Share conf########
[My Share]
comment = SysAdmin Share
path = /share
public = yes
writable = yes


save the file using the

:wq

press enter

#/etc/init.d/smb start
#chkconfig smb on

Then you can access the linux file from the windows machine.
