Does anyone still use the Lynx text-only web browser? It would seem useful for certain classes of low-end mobile devices, especially if one is billed per KB of data transfer.
I've been trying to get Gearman compiled on CentOS 5.8 all afternoon. Unfortunately I am restricted to this version of CentOS by my CTO and how he has our entire network configured. I think it's simply because we don't have enough resources to upgrade our network... But anyways, the problem at hand.
I have searched through Server Fault, Stack…
I am trying to SSH from a NAS to a webserver using a public key.
NAS user is 'root' and webserver user is 'backup'
I have all permissions set correctly and when I debug the SSH connection I get:
(last little bit of the debug)
debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_REQUEST sent
debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received
debug1: Authentications that can…
I have installed SQL Server 2012 and SharePoint 2013 on my Windows Server 2012 machine using a dedicated domain install account.
When I log into the same machine with a user account, all the icons for these applications are missing!
I can still access the applications by finding them in 'Program Files', however it is very annoying.…
I am thinking about the way of establishing some-sort of real-time connection between MySQLpowered shopping cart and internal system that is running on PostgreSQL.
Could you give me some sort of insight on this topic?
For example, I can write some sort of csv export application, then enable remote MySQL for over the internet…
I have three boxes operating in a Windows Server workgroup within a closed network. (No Domain / No AD)
There are several derivations of the scenario that I'm about to outline, but I'm sure I will be able to retool the solution as and when I need.
Essentially the boxes are:
2 x Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Standard
1 x…
I have a cluster resource of type "file share" but when I try to configure the "security" parameter I get the following error (excerpt):
Set-ClusterParameter : Parameter 'security' does not exist on the cluster object
Using cluster.exe I get a better result, namely the usual nothing when the command worked. But when I…
There are all kinds of questions and answers relevant moving Windows 8 to a new hard drive. I'm not seeing anything quite applicable to my situation.
I have a new, unopened, unbooted notebook with pre-installed Windows 8. I will be replacing the hard drive before ever booting, unless that is not possible for some…
I'm defragmenting my hard drive (XP SP3) with PerfectDisk 7.0, and it finds 816,659 excess fragments when I ask for an analysis.
[update] Specifically, it shows that the 1TB disk is 14% fragmented with 19693 fragments and 816,659 excess fragments. About 20% of the disk is still free space.
What does excess…
I want a drive that I can be used as my work drive, storing a Subversion repo and sandbox for a small project. I'd also like it to be able to store a DVD rip. At the moment I've got a Super Talent pico-C 8gb. It's fast at reading and writing DVD rips, but the performance on small files (ie less than 4k) is…
I have the problem that when I send my computer to sleep it wakes if you bump the table, floor, burp etc. I have read many threads that say go to Device Manager Mouse Properties Power Management Tab and uncheck the box for wake.
My problem is I do not have a Power Management Tab! Anyone know how to…
I'm trying to install APC for PHP 5.3 in the easiest way possible. I love Homebrew so I started down that route. I was able to install PHP 5.3.6 with this command:
brew install https://github.com/adamv/homebrew-alt/raw/master/duplicates/php.rb --with-mysql
I think this is supposed to install PHP,…
I am trying to create a backup of my stored passwords in Credentials Manager.
But after Windows switches to the secure desktop to get the password for the backup file it simply announced that "Your stored logon credentials could not be backed up" and gives as explanation "Element not found",…
I installed postgres on my mac running 10.6.8 and I would like to reset the password for the postgres user (I believe this is the super user password) and then restart it.
All the directions I found do not work because I think my user name is not recognized by pg as having authority to…
Am I am an idiot for not using a surge protected powerboard?
Does this mean my computer gets fried in a power outage? Which particular parts of the computer are most vulnerable to damage if I get a 'surge'?
Sorry for being a newb.
I love the whole "one inbox" concept on my blackberry. Facebook updates, SMS/MMS messages, and email all lands in the same list. Problem is they assume I have a simple Gmail account without multiple accounts. I have my Gmail account setup to receive email from ~15 different accounts.…
Looking to buy a new router. Any appreciable differences between 802.11n (final) and draft 2? Should I hold out for a router that is certified with the final standard?
I have Windows 7 Professional hosting Ubuntu inside VirtualBox for my development machine. To test my site, I run Internet Explorer and hit my Ubuntu box. This works great for Internet Explorer 8, the default browser on this Windows machine.
I also want to run another VM…
On a NetApp filer's command line I'm running "sysstat -u" to show disk utilization, (actually the utilization of the single busiest disk). By disk utilization, I mean "percent of time the disk is busy", not "how much space on the disk is being used to store data/metadata".
Is there a…
So everytime I load a new page, I notice a new HTTPD process opens, every time I click a page, and each process says it's using anywhere from 2-4.5% of memory. Does that mean every single process is running at that time using 2-4% of RAM? It's a brand new server and I'm the only one…
I have several services set up in launchctl and they all start at boot and restart automatically whenever they stop for any reason. That's great so far.
But sometimes I want one of the services to quit and not restart for a while.
Is there a recommended way to do that apart from…
I'm working on a hopefully unrelated question question and I've got to a strange situation.
First: I know very little about the very low level hardware kernal storage driver magix, so I'm hoping a) someone can help and b) someone can explain it to me better.
I've been trying a…
Checking a larger subnet than I normally do; mapping out a cluster suite in a university for a traffic mapping project (permission attained), and I was wondering something.
NMap usually prints its progress periodically, but I'm unclear to what that 'periodically' is, because the…
Basically, using the latest available ubuntu drivers (195.36.15) I cannot for the life of me get my two monitors to operate at suitable resolutions.
When not using the drivers atall and going single-screen, both monitors support 1680x1050, but this option is only shown for one…
