  • Rate limiting an internet connection per user

    - by Alister
    I've got a friend who has a "rent-by-room" property and includes internet access as part of this. However some tenants are somewhat hogging the internet (i.e. constantly downloading). I was wondering if anyone knows of a fairly easy way of rate limiting each connection to make the system more equitable. A preferred solution would be a cheap piece of hardware or some sort of Linux "appliance". I would rather not have to get an iptables headache if this is avoidable.

  • New computer crashing

    - by Alister
    I've just built a new computer and it crashes occasionally - it just switches off and then restarts and I'm not sure about the best way to diagnose the problem. All the components are seated nicely and nothing seems to be overheating, the bios is set to fail-safe. What tools could I use to track down any possible issues? I've run memtest86+ with no problems. It's running Win7 Ultimate.

  • Removing the password from a PDF file

    - by Alister
    I have a couple of ebooks as PDFs with passwords, however my ebook reader (sony prs600) doesn't seem to support PDFs with passwords. What is the easiest of removing the password from a PDF (I know the password, which presumably helps a lot). It's a bit annoying buying a book and then only being able to read it in front of a computer.

  • How can I add multiple pre-commit SVN Hooks

    - by Alister Bulman
    I've got several pre-commit hooks that I would like to run before each commit. Right now, they are all just shell-scripts, so I know i could just concatenate them to get them all to run. In the future though, additional scripts may be written in Perl, PHP, or some other language as well. How can I run several different scripts as part of a single pre-commit hook?

  • Undelete a contact in outlook

    - by Alister
    I have an application written in Delphi that adds / updates contacts in outlook. The problem I'm having is that if the contact has been deleted in Outlook, the code still finds the contact and updates it - and the contact still remains deleted. Is there a way I can determine if the contact is deleted or undelete the contact? Roughly the code looks something like: OutlookApp := CreateOleObject('Outlook.Application'); Mapi := OutlookApp.GetNameSpace('MAPI'); //..... try if ContactOutlookEntryID.AsString <> '' then aContact := Mapi.GetItemFromID(ContactOutlookEntryID.AsString); except end; //try to locate the contact if they have been synchro'd before if VarIsEmpty(aContact) then //if not found aContact := Contacts.Items.Add(2); //add a new contact to outlook aContact.LastName := ContactSurname.AsString; //.....
