I had never heard of fakeroot before but I was compiling a package that wants it as a dependency. The man page tries to be reassuring but should I be comfortable with this on my systems?
I don't know, why this happens, but when I want to create a new folder (Win 7), I press Ctrl + Shift + N. It used to work before, but now, the shortcut seems to have been overridden. It launches the default browser with the text on the clipboard as the url. How do I fix this?
My sister still has Win XP. She tried to print a document on her USB printer and now it's stuck in the printing queue. I tried the following:
Restart the computer

Delete the entry from the printing queue

The status of the printing job now reads "Deleting - Paused - Printing".
Nothing I do seems to get rid of this stuck printing job.
What should I do?
I am looking to release and renew my IP address in OS X 10.4 using Terminal. Essentially, I need the OS X equivalent of Windows:
C:\ ipconfig /release
C:\ ipconfig /renew
However, I need the interface to remain active during this process, so using ifconfig down/up will not work. I believe I can clear the IP with ifconfig delete but I'm not sure how to get the dhcp client to reassign the address. An article from 2002 suggests using set dhcp but Apple's ifconfig man page does not include this information.
I am having a problem performing maintenance tasks on Microsoft SQL Server 2008 after changing my server name from the original random name given during installation to the one I prefer
This is the error am getting
Could not obtain Information about Windows NT group/users
'WIN-4N4A9TLBGJJ\Administrator', error code 0x534
Is there a way I can fix this problem without having to delete the account and recreating it again?
Win 7 Pro SP1 x64
EVGA Geforce GTX 670 FTW 2gb
Geforce Driver: 320.49, it did happen with the previous version of the driver as well
Chrome Version 28.0.1500.52 beta-m
DirectX: 11
I was looking in chrome://gpu which told me that "Rasterization: Software only. Hardware acceleration disabled." and further down "Accelerated rasterization has not been enabled or is not supported by the current system."
Is there a way to enable hardware acceleration?
I'm want to use adduser
However it doesn't seem to work if I provide the second argument for the user's group
root@a:~# adduser rick staff
adduser: The user `rick' does not exist.
The group exists
root@a:~# addgroup staff
addgroup: The group `staff' already exists.
The man page says this should work...
adduser [options] user group
Any ideas?
I can do:
adduser --ingroup staff rick
So no massive issue, just seems strange.
Nowadays on Windows 7, if I have no mouse on my computer I just press Win Buttom+-+Enter:
This makes my computer to shutdown without using a mouse. However, on Windows 8, I need the mouse to open that hidden menu on the right side of the screen, open the "Settings" tab - "Power" - Then choose for "Shut down", "Sleep" or "Restart":
There is some keyboard shortcut to open these shutdowns options on Windows 8 or another way that not just with the mouse pointer?
I was wondering if employee's https session is secure or not. Can IT dept know data transfered through https? Not sure if the router in IT end can act like man in the middle and can decrypt everything then re-encrypt its own keys and send to original destination?
Besides that, what are being monitored by IT generally? Thanks
I've just begun to use the Terminal in Mac OS X and I've found the man command very useful, although very often the explanations are too compact or complicated for me. I am looking for a very basic reference guide – like O'Reilly makes, for example. But in there I didn't find an entry for basic commands like ls or ln and a layman's explanation of all the flags and options.
Could anybody recommend me something?

I have a win 2K3 domain controller that has sudddenly started logging about 60 events a second. All events are ID 538, 540 and 576
All events pertain to Security Audit of the machine itself logging in successfully. a typical entry is
Event Id 540
Successful Network Logon:
User Name: <machinename>$
Any pointers to how I can diagnose this? CPU and memory are normal on the machine.
I'm running Exchange 2007 SP3 which is exposing outlook web access over only HTTPS. However the server delivers the sessionid cookie without the secure flag set. Even though I don't have port 80 open, this cookie is still vulnerable to being stolen over port 80 in the event of a man-in-the-middle attack. It also contributes to a PCI-DSS failure
Does anyone know if I can persuade the web server/application to set the secure flag?
When i am extracting big rars it takes forever. However when i look in the task man cpu usage is only about 16%.
I am thinking that the hdd is the bottleneck, or maybe not? The hdd is an average 7200 rpm seagate.
Some know more about this?
I know that we have HTTPS, but I would like to know if there's an algorithm/approach/strategy that grants a reasonable security level without using SSL.
I have read many solution on the internet.
Most of them are based on adding some time metadata to the hashes, but it needs that both server and client has the time set equal. Moreover, it seems to me that none of this solution could prevent a man in the middle attack.
I have been wanting to experiment with Windows clustering systems in my spare time, so I need a free, preferably open source, iSCSI Target that can support 2k3 and 2k8 fail-over and possibly High availability clustering. I have tried the ubuntu iscsi target package in a vmware environment, but it fails at the 2k8 tests.
In simple terms I want to build a "Poor man's San" for windows and have it be able to do more than just be drives.
My parents have a number of really large albums and the pictures are starting to face in a lot of cases so we thought it would be a good idea to scan in all the pictures and move them to online albums. The issue is that the task is daunting given that there are thousands of pictures.
Are there any services or ideas on how to scan in albums of pictures that won't take up hundreds of man hours for me?
Hey, Guys
I've got several network adapter in my PC (from LAN, WLAN, VPN etc...) and what I want to accomplish is that some specific adresses use the VPN adapter, while all others use eiter LAN or WLAN.
(So for example http://win-server/ is using VPN, while www.google still uses LAN connection.)
I've want to solve this with the Windows settings and not the VPN settings to make sure I can do it with every VPN-Provider.
Thank You
I have an iPad that is connected to the Wireless router in my network. However, this router is connected to my Win 2008 server, which in its turn is connected to the internet. The iPad is unable to connect to the public url for the exchange server on the server (www.example.com) and has erratic internet access, where Windows laptops are provided with faultless internet access, even when they are not a member of the domain.
How do I solve this?
I'm building a Raid array for the first time in my system and I have a question regarding having multiple Raid 1 arrays in a single Win 7 system.
I'm a bit of an organizational freak with my data and I currently have two separate hard drives I want to mirror. The new motherboard I'm looking to buy supports Raid, so my question is this:
a) can I have more than one Raid 1 array in a single system?
b) would I have to buy a separate controller for the second array?

I got into an argument on the net.core.somaxconn parameter: I was told that it will not make any difference if we change the default 128.
I believed this might be enough proof:
"If the backlog argument is greater than the value in /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn, then it is silently truncated to that value" http://linux.die.net/man/2/listen
but it's not.
Does anyone know a method to testify this with two machines, sitting on a Gbit network?
The best would be against MySQL, LVS, apache2 ( 2.2 ), memcached.

Hi
I'm a used Ubuntu user on a pc, and I like the french keyboard layout because it allows me to type accentued characters easily.
I found a win-fr keyboard layout but it's much like windows and not so good.
I found xmodmap.fr keyboard layout and I'd like to know if it was possible use it with my Mac SL 10.6.5, maybe I could do xmodmap xmodmap.fr or a way to convert to mac layout file.
Any ideas?!
