Is there a way of configuring a nagios check that a smtp service is correctly configured and emails are going out.
I have a check that the service is running, but recently we noticed that the configuration had been altered and no emails where going out, but the service was still running.
One idea I had was to schedule a regular email to be sent, is it possible for nagios to check for that email and throw an alert if it didn't detect it?
Any other ideas to monitor this gratefully received.
I've received an email with an embedded table. I want to put some marks inside that table (i.e., edit the contentof the table) and send it back.
Unfortunately, the Gmail interface doesn't seem to have table editing capabilities: after I hit reply, I see the table in the quoted text of the original message, but is not editable...
If this is not possible in Gmail, how do I export the HTML source of this messsage and edit in another installed word processor?
IT is running a series of VMs that we'd like to see optimized further: if the VMs' are Windows XP, storing their NTFS images out to the virtual disk (ext3) provided by Linux/VMWare, how much of a hit are we taking - as opposed to having a partition of the host hard drive formatted NTFS to eliminate the translation layer and the extra level of operating system IO preparation?
I have a new Macbook, don't know the OS, but just got it--it's the cheaper model. I saved a lot of photos on iPhoto and can't figure out how to burn a CD. Tried the "share" function and when I choose a location to save the photos and hit burn, get an error message that says can't create in that location. Needs to be run on a pc or photo processing place.
On CentOS 5.7, when open up a vncconfig, a tray icon shows on the taskbar. Hit close or the x button to close the vncconfig doesn't exit the vncconfig, the tray icon is still there. Next time, if I open up another vncconfig rather than clicking the one on taskbar. There will be another vncconfig tray icon added to the taskbar. Except using kill $pid to remove the tray icon, is there any other way to exit the vncconfig process properly? See screenshot below:
All I can see is the sender's name, and if I reply, the message is to the "reply-to" address, not necessarily the email address of the sender. If I hit the circle beside the name, I can see the email address if they are not a contact; otherwise, I just see their contact profile, which does not specify the email address from which the message was sent.
I have 3 raw images of what was once a 3 disk RAID5 setup. The hardware has been lost and the configuration is unknown.
Does anyone know of some software that can automatically detect the raid configuration and write a single image out?
I read somewhere that the Ultimate Boot CD can diagnose computer problems. In this case would this program help me get my Windows XP back?
When I turn on the screen and hit "Start Windows Normally" or go to Safe Mode I get a flash of the WinXP logo and then it goes to this error page. Can you tell from this message is it a hardware or software issue?
I am writing a program that needs to be able to detect the presence of various web hosting control panels. I don't use Plesk, or have access to a server running Plesk, so I am unable to ascertain what file or directory I could test for to reliably conclude that the system is running Plesk.
What file or directory indicates "Yes, this has Plesk installed" that is unlikely to ever change in the future, but would be present on all versions of Plesk out in the wild?
Thanks in advance :)
A client exposed information regarding what will become a controversial website in the domain WhoIs after she purchased it from auction.
Is there any whois cache that will detect, save, and share the old whois information for that domain, after it has changed?
(It's a website to provide birth control in countries where it is banned, and she may receive death threats for the information shared on it. Obviously something she wishes to avoid.)
If I have an image with a table containing several rows, say like the periodic table:
Are there any tool I can use to split this into one smaller image with the H He row, another image for the Li Be ... Ne row, etc?
The tool does not have to detect the row borders by itself, specifying a
start offset + row height in pixels is ok.
Manually selecting and cutting/copying in gimp is not an option, I have way to many rows to process.
Due to memory problems I closed Firefox whilst the Group My Tabs (Ctrl+e) feature was displaying the multiple tab groups. After 20 minutes the process still hadn't finished so killall firefoxed it.
When I restart Firefox, there is a Javascript process called tabview.js that hangs unless I click Stop at the warning screen. If I do hit Stop then I can no longer open the tabview, so I can't get to any of the tabs except in the subgroup I was last looking at.
Any suggestions?
Emacs has elaborate protection against simultaneous editing by two different users. If there a way to have that same facility for protecting against simultaneous editing by the same user?
With lots of windows and workspaces open, it's easy to reopen a file that you already have open somewhere else. But because it does not detect a lock conflict when you open the file, you will only learn about the collision when you save.
I'm in the midst of building a computer (first time builder)
I got everything plugged in, and hit the power button. After the excitement of the first boot coming up on my screen, I was looking through the BIOS settings. However, joy soon turned sour, as I looked at the list of installed SATA devices. My DVD drive wasn't on the list :(
So, what are common things I should check/try?

How can I prevent Thunderbird to add the extension .txt to a file when open the attachment. I have the problem with .patch files which I want look with notepad++. The problem is that notepad++ does not detect the right formating for the file because the extension is .txt.
If I drag the file on the desktop an double click all is working. Why change Thunderbird the file name on opening?
I am working on Windows 7.
The default Emacs on Mac OS X, 22.1, appears to have some problems with the info/help stuff.
When you hit C+h i, it says:
Can't find the Info directory node.
It works in AquaEmacs, but I downloaded the 23 version of emacs precompiled binaries from here and I still have the same problem.
I have accidentally deleted all of my document that I was writting in Word. I closed it and hit save changes mistakenly. Now that I've reopened it I can't seem to get Ctrl-Z (undo) to recover my info.
Is there another way to get my document contents back?
I am trying to redirect traffic from one IP reached on a specific port to a website.
For example I have two external ips, lets say 194.145.63.1 and 194.145.63.2 set on one network card as 194.145.63.1 - eth0 and 194.145.63.2 -eth0:1
mywebsite.com allows access only from 194.145.63.1 and I want to set my rules like if I hit http://194.145.63.2:8080 to open mywebsite.com trough 194.145.63.1.
Thanks in advance!
Is There any possible way to upgrade the retro G-con Light Gun for PS1 to allow it to interact with HD TV's?
I am aware that they were Designed purely for Tube TV's but I would be happy to know of any hardware that would maybe convert the light to hit the Pixels on an LCD TV.
If not is there any other Light gun that would work on PS1 games but has the newer light gun hardware that can interact with a higher Pixel LCD TV?
We are expecting a large number of users to hit a Website built with IIS/.Net 4.0 that our SQL Server 2008 database server is providing data for. The database is around 2GB in size. We are contemplating increasing the MAX CONNECTION POOL to between 500 to 1000 -- to handle the estimated traffic. Two questions
(1) Does anyone have any hard performance numbers indicating the kind of improvement this may provide?
(2) What is the impact of hitting that MAX CONNECTION POOL number in a production enviroment?
When I hit F3 to go to expose (or fn + F9), it pops up for a fraction of a second then disappears again.
I have only had my iMac a week and have not installed anything beyond a couple of widgets and iWork.
I have to hold F3 down to view it - is that normal? I am sure it did not do this before.
On windows I have a few AutoHotkey scripts that let me hit various key combinations to resize windows to particular pre-defined sizes, or move them to certain areas of the screen (or both). I'm wondering how I would accomplish this in Ubuntu (gnome).
Most of the searches I did for a linux version of autohotkey seemed to be centered around just setting up simple keyboard shortcuts (key combo X launches app Y, etc). I didn't see anything about scripting window size and placement beyond maximize/minimize.
