Hi!
I was wandering if it's possible to run an Ubuntu virtual machine using VirtualBox in background, I mean, without any window open.
The idea is to conect via SSH to the linux host, that would be running in background.
Have you ever done somenthing like this? Is it possible?
Thanks!
I have a bunch of Apache log files that I would like to analyze. I'm looking for a tool that doesn't require much setup; something that I can run a log through the command line, without messing around on our live web servers.
Any recommendations?
I would like to do this because i have half installed service because of installation failure which is just there non functioning.
How can we remove the windows service using the command line ?
I am trying to schedule the opening of a command line to run task in another pc. But I am not able to open them.
AT \OTHERPC 15:00 "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" BATCHJOB.bat
Any ideas?
Recently I worked under linux and there is a feature that I like very much.
I can open a shell by making right click inside the window and choosing a corresponding option from menu.
Is there a way to ad something similar in Windows?
Hi!
I need to install an ISAPI extension on IIS 5.1 using command line. On windows server 2003 there is a script iisext.vbs but on windows xp it's not present.
In the Excel VBE, the Find Dialog box (CTRL-F) pops up half off screen at the bottom of screen. How do I control the Find window so it positions itself higher up on the screen ?
A while back, I came across a random password generator for the command line that displayed a grid of "memorable" passwords. Output was something like this:
adam@host:~$ CantRememberThisCommand
lkajsdf aksjdfl
kqwrupo qwerpoi
qwerklw zxlkelq
The idea was that you could run this utility while someone was looking over your shoulder, and still pick a password with some level of secrecy due to the large number of choices.
I cannot remember what this utility was called. Oh interwebs, can you help?
I have a network webcam with motion detector. The motion detector can be configuured to send e-mail, upload ftp, etc. But i wanted to pop up (get in front) the video stream window when motion get detected. The built-in software does not make it.
Do you know of a software to do that ?
I have written a stored procedure in MSSQL Server 2008 R2 which sends emails when my Application logs errors. It works fine on servers at our office but when I ran it on our remote servers I got
must issue a starttls command first
So maybe there is a setting somewhere which is different between the two servers, and that's why it's working on one and not the other. How do I set the server so that it issues a "starttls commaned first"?
Let's say you open two files through a vertical split..
vim -O 1 2
Now how would I split this window horizontally across both of the vertical windows? So this is what a :vsplit looks like:

I want the end result to look like

I tried export HISTTIMEFORMAT='%D %T' but it seems the time stamp of commands executed before I set HISTTIMEFORMAT will be the time I logged in current session. Is this normal? Is there any way to check when did the previous command executed? Thanks.
In XP, to ensure a folder opened in a new window, I held down CTRL when I opened (by mouse or keyboard) the folder.
This action is so ingrained to me, I pretty much don't even realise I'm doing it at a conscious level.
Unfortunately, this action apparently hasn't made it to Vista. Is there a new way to do this, or am I just missing something obvious?
The problem is, both Firefox and Internet Explorer have "Open in New Tab" as the second option.
This has become muscle memory for me by now, to the point that I don't use as often as I want to, solely because I can't open a page in a new tab without thinking about it.
Is there a way to switch the position of "Open Link in new tab" and "Open link in new window", so that I can resume browsing as normal, or am I cursed by this user interface design nightmare by Google?
Hello
I am using ubuntu 10.04. Yesterday i shut down my system in a proper working state. And this morning when i started my system i got this problem.
When i minimize any window it doesnt show in the bottom panel. for switching i have to use alt+tab key
I am wondering what is the command in Windows to show the current local directory? I am now working in PUTTY psftp mode, so the current directory is not shown in prompt.
Also is there GUI for ssh and sftp under windows? I don't think PUTTY offer anything GUI?
Thanks!
Hi,
I have a 2 1.5TB drives containing numerous video, audio, documents etc that I would like to essentially mirror to 2 other drives for backup. I would like to do this using rsync (as it seems the most appropriate thing to use).
What command should I use to do so? Is there anything to be aware of when rsyncing NTFS partitioned drives/files?
Is there a way to forcibly terminate an SSH session in PuTTY, short of closing the PuTTY window?
For example, in OpenSSH, I can use the ~. escape sequence to kill the connection.
This is useful when the SSH session stops responding for some reason, but I don't want to lose any of my current session-specific settings. In that case, I'd like to kill the session and then use Restart Session to reconnect.
In Windows 7, in most applications, when an application is maximized...I can "tear" the window (grab the title bar and drag) from it's maximized size and off the top of the screen and then I can drag it to wherever...but when Excel is maximized I do not have that functionality...Is there some trick to adding this functionality for Excel 2007...I can do it with Word 2007 so it doesn't appear to be Office itself. The machine is a Dell Latitude D820 with the Nvidia Quadro NVS 110M video card...running the latest video drivers...
If the use the following scp command then I get an error:
