Now that MS Money will be discontinuing, what are the other options if one should have to switch? And why do you prefer a given option over the others?
I would like to switch from desktop-based e-mail software (Thunderbird) to a web-based solution that I run on my own web server.
I have already tried out Roundcube and while it does work reasonably well so far there is one great feature from Thunderbird that seems to be missing - it doesn't allow me to have a unified mailbox for multiple IMAP accounts.
Can anybody recommend a web-based IMAP client that has this feature?
Is there a way of stopping Windows Live Mail client repeatedly asking whether I want Outlook Express [sic] to compact my messages?
[p.s. please don't suggest that I jut switch to a different mail client]
I have an API that used to run on Apache but now is served via lighttpd. I can easily switch the API URL in the app to the lighty port like api.net:81. I wonder if I should use mod_proxy instead to have cleaner urls. There is no redirect for legacy urls necessary. What would be the overhead for the Apache in between compared to the direct call?
Would mod_proxy and Apache steal the benefit of lightys lightweightness?
I'm writing a puppet provider for iSCSI and want to grab information about the ifaces (in my case HBAs) we have, is there a better way than doing this:
iscsiadm -m iface -I be2iscsi.00:00:00:00:00:00|grep iface.ipaddress|sed -e 's/iface.ipaddress = //'
it looks pretty ugly, but the -n switch doesn't seem to work unless you're in --op=update
is there a better way to grab this information, in particular in ruby?
I have an application that connects to SQL Server 2008. What I want is to make a standby server (this standby server should be a mirror of the primary one). So that when the connection fails, the primary server should automatically switch to standby server without modifying my application. If there is way, please tell me in detail or even if there is third party product.
Note that I need to set the connection in my application to one server only.
Several days ago Google Chrome stoped working after an update.
If I start it in the terminal I can see the following output:
[6:6:4528137750:FATAL:sandbox_init_linux.cc(378)] prctl(PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS) failed: Invalid argument
Any idea how to solve this?
Chrome version: 20.0.1132.47
Ubuntu: 12.04 x64
Kernel: 3.2.0-21-generic #34-Ubuntu
EDIT:
It is possible to start chrome with --no-sandbox switch.
I recently got a brand new computer. Everything was fine until I plugged my electric guitar into my amp. When I switch on my guitar amp (guitar speaker) I can hear a weird noise. It sounds like the noise that that goes through your speakers when you put your mobile phone next to it.
There is nothing wrong with my guitar or guitar amp and I didn't have any similar problems with my old computer. Can anyone help me?
I'd like to write a simple script that alerts me if a log changes. For this I'm using grep to find the lines I'm interested in. Right now it works like this:
grep line /var/log/file | mail -s Log [email protected]
Problem is that this sends a mail even if no matching lines are found. The mail utility from mailutils seems to have no switch telling it to drop mails that have an empty body.
Is there a quick and easy way to do so?
Right now I'm forced to read all the tweets in a single client on a single device (TweetDeck on my Android phone).
If I would switch to another device and/or client, I would need to search for the last unread tweet, which is sometimes complicated (too many tweets).
So, the question:
Is there a client who can keep the status (read/unread) on tweets across multiple devices? My target systems would be now Android and MS Windows, but also Linux might be handy.
I'd like to change the keyboard mapping from command-line (Terminal) in Mac OS X Lion (10.7).
I can manually set it (System Preferences - Language & Text - Input Sources), and there's a nice option that lets me use different input sources for different documents, but I'd like to bind it to a key under zsh to easily swap between Qwerty and Dvorak layouts (I'm learning Dvorak, and having the option to switch easily would be sensational).
There is a computer that is not mine that is accessible on my network. I can even access its filesystem via AFP. What I want to know is how the computer could get on my network. My network is secured like this:
Does that mean that they've used password cracking tools? The pass is not easy to guess but not hard to figure out via brute-force hacking, I guess.
If I am being hacked, should I switch to WPA?
I have direcly connected (with fibre) a HP ProLiant BL460c G7 with a EMC CX4. I installed VMWare Esxi 5.0. The problem is that cx4 cannot connect to the blade. It seems that there is no connectivity problem, because the server can be connected to fibre switch with other equipment (EVA 4000) and also cx4 is already atteched to one same server.
The problem seems to exist somewhere between the cx4 and esxi when they are direclty attached.
Any ideas??
I've looked at log4jdbc (which does not support datasources), p6spy which seems to be what I am looking for but it has not been updated since 2003 which makes me nervous and lists only JBoss 3.x (we use JBoss 5), and JAMon which seems heavyweight for what I am trying to accomplish (a simple log of all SQL statements running through a JBoss application server).
I was hoping that JBoss itself would have a switch to log all the sql (as Websphere does) but I cannot find any documentation for it so that functionality might not exist.
I sometimes hook up my laptop to a regular keyboard and mouse set. These require drivers that I don't want loaded when I'm using my laptop's own keyboard and touchpad. So...
Can I tell Windows 7 to selectively load one or the other driver based on this condition, or switch between the two?
I switch between three languages input methods frequently, sometimes in the same typing session. The default shortcut on a Macintosh seems to be to set keyboard shortcuts for previous/next language (I hit opt-cmd-space to go to previous language) and if you're more than bi-lingual you have to cycle until you find the one for you.
The ideal would be something like hitting fn-e for English, fn-j for Japanese and fn-g for German, but anything better than the current state would be a great improvement.
I am terrified of accidentally sending a reply before I'm finished editing it.
Usually what I do is either:
copy the email into word, edit in word, then hit reply-to-all in outlook, paste in my text, and send.
hit reply-to-all, delete the recipient names, edit, add the recipient names, and send.
Is there a way to 'lock' the email so I can't send it while I'm making edits in Outlook? I hate having to switch between programs just so I can edit.
I'd like to read small text file, located at: /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch without root permissions. It contains information about graphic cards (dedicated ATI Radeon and integrated Intel HD3000).
I wrote a simple script displaying infomation I need, but it works only with root privileges. I already tried changing file & folder permissions, but when I restart my computer, the problem remains. Is it possible to permanently change that file permissions or owner?
For last few days I've been reading about Spanning Tree Protocol ,L2 protocol and understood how it prevents loop in network ,various steps in STP but one thing i wanted to know how STP actually detects the loops in network so that it can prevent it.Somewhere I read STP uses BPDU as probe and detects loops I mean how it happen is when switch send a BPDU with Destination Address as multicast and receive same BPDU again mean there is loop in network .
But is it how STP detects loops in network?
We have critical servers (webservers and databases) that are fully replicated, except for the reverse proxy that we use to hide the internal stuff. This proxy is acting like a router that filters and redirects traffic to the main server and switch for failover if the main one is down.
We want to find an alternative to this proxy because one single entry point is not enough.
Is there any company that has a solid and redundant infrastructure that offers redirection to an IP and allows quick switching to another one?
Hi.
I've just made the switch to Ubuntu on my main PC and I've been looking for a media player that can:
Play all the usual video formats
Rate (and ideally, tag) each file
Display thumbnails for each file
Other than that there isn't much I'm after.
Banshee comes close, but doesn't display thumbnails.
I've Google'd lots but I'm running out of search terms to try.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Cheers!

hi.
I've just encrypted my drives using Bitlocker but since I don't have TPM, I went with USB key. Is it possible to switch that method to PIN or is it too late now and I have to re-encrypt the drives?
This menu allows you to select a hardware profile when Windows is started
If your system is not starting correctly, then you may switch to a previous system configuration, important: system configuration changes made since the last successful start up will be discarded.
Profile 1
If I choose Profile 1 (the only choice) Windows loads normally.
This menu always appears when I turn on the computer.
Is there any can solve it?
