I'm looking for a windows program for cataloging my DVD, video files, ebook, etc...
The program must have some retrieval of information from the internet and from the files themselves.
Also, one MUST HAVE requirement is that if a file/ebook changes location, I need to be able to change it in the software. Even better if the program allows bulk updating...
Update
Order of preference is: open-source, freeware, shareware, commercial.
I want to buy a Nokia 5530 and run Gizmo5 on it in order to receive and make calls. I want to get a call in number based in England and was wondering if receiving calls via the call in number on my mobile via wifi would use any of my callout credit?
I ask because the Skype lite version uses your callout credit if you receive a call on it using your online number (it doesn't if you use the desktop version).
Thanks!
I'd like to be sure that cpanel/WHM is definitely NOT going to automatically update my PHP to 5.3 (it will cause all sorts of errors for legacy code).
So, please let me know where I should look (either in WHM control panel or via SSH) in order to satisfy myself that PHP definitely won't get upgraded to 5.3 without my say-so?
I bought a Lenovo 430K with Windows 7 Home Premium and upgraded it to Windows 8 Pro. I created a DVD from which I installed the Windows 8 Pro upgrade. I'm underwhelmed with Windows 8, however. I want to install Linux as the host OS and run Windows 8 Pro as a guest OS.
Will the Windows 8 Pro DVD that I created install Windows 8 Pro in a virtual machine, or would that virtual machine have to have Windows 7 installed first in order to install the upgrade?
A little while ago I discovered that on Ubuntu linux one can display or conceal hidden files on demand at run-time by pressing [Ctrl-H]. This is really handy. Is there anyway this can be had on windows?
I'm guessing Windows Explorer is not amenable to this, so I'm open to 3rd party file managers provided they're open source, freeware, or cheap (in order of preference).
thanks
In order for me to switch from TotalCommander to FreeCommander, I need to have an excact replica of the interface I've been using for almost a decade.
I need to remove the extrensions from filenames in the Name-Column.
This is how it looks in my FreeCommander:
And this is how I need it to look:
In my emacs org-mode org file I have a tag list
#+TAGS: OFFICE(o) COMPUTER(c) HOME(h) PROJECT READING(r) PHOTOGRAPHY(p)
At some point, I wish to add a new tag to the list, and apply it to an item (using C-c C-c). But the new tag does not show up in the list of selectable tags.
In order to fix this, I close and reopen emacs. But I'm sure that isn't necessary, How do I refresh this list without restarting emacs?
I have about 300 emails (gmail) that go like this:
Dear [name]
Order ID:123456789
Purchased by: [name I need]
(blah blah another 26 lines of crap (total of 30 lines))
What I need help is how to save gmail's mails locally into .txt and how to export 4th line from each text file. I can easily run Replace 'Purchased by: ' to remove that and keep only the names from that line in a list, but other than that I have no clue
Any ideas?
Recently our SQL Server is getting bogged down by something. I was wondering what is the best way to check what could be causing the problem by querying the database. This is the best I've found so far:
SELECT
SPID = s.spid
, BlockingSPID = s.blocked
, DatabaseName = DB_NAME(s.dbid)
, ProgramName = s.program_name
, [Status] = s.[status]
, LoginName = s.loginame
, ObjectName = OBJECT_NAME(objectid, s.dbid)
, [Definition] = CAST([text] AS VARCHAR(MAX))
FROM sys.sysprocesses s
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text (sql_handle)
WHERE
s.spid > 50
ORDER BY
DatabaseName
, loginName

I have setup a Mercurial website in IIS7 using this tutorial:
http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/HgWebInIisOnWindows
I am slowly figuring out all of the options that I can tweak for the served repositories. But I'd like to know if and when I need to recycle the website process in order to pick up changes made to any of the repositories' hgrc files? Does the website pick up the changes on the next request or do I need to always recycle?
Additionally, do I need to "restart" the website or run iisreset?
I would like to know how to disable and enable Microsoft Security Essentials from the command line.
This is a common procedure on build machines in order to speed-up the build process.
Hi,
I wanted to ask if it is possible to create a user account on Ubuntu so that it had all powers and rights of root account except it would be impossible to edit a certain file.
What I intend to do is to edit host file in order to block access of certain websites, and then create a user account which would be the same as root account except it would be not able to edit host file. Maybe there is an easier way to block an access of certain sites forever?
Thanks!
I would like to know how to load balance two Business DLS links which have fixed IPs. I believe it would look something like this:
ip route add default scope global \
nexthop via gatewayDLS1 dev interface1 weight 1 \
nexthop via gatewayDLS2 dev interface2 weight 1
Is this be all I need in order to get multipath routing? Please, give me a more detailed answer if possible, thanks you.
Hi everyone, at the moment i have a dual monitor setup on my main PCIe gfx card.
I know that on windows it is almost impossible to have a second card (eg no thrills PCI card) running without having an SLI motherboard because of a driver issue. Well this was my conclusion after many weeks of research.
I was thinking...is it possible to use a VM in order to utilize the secondary card as the default video output to feed another monitor?
let me know if you want me to clarify
Thanks :)
For a schoolar project, I have to run differents services in a lab enviroment where I'll have 6 computers working as servers, what services can I put together, and what cannot be, in order to prevent security risks, and considereiting that if one service goes down, affects less possible the function of the server farm, the services are:
MySql
Http for intranet
Https
DHCP
IPP
SMTP
LDAP
VPN
SSH
NTP
DNS
NFS
I'll use linux
I have a mailing list application that sends emails through several dedicated SMTP servers (running Linux Debian 5 and Postfix) in the same network of a hosting company.
However, the application is using the servers' external IP addresses in order to connect to them over SMTP, and I was wondering what kind of improvement would be obtained if the application used the internal IP addresses of the servers instead?
Thank you in advance for your insight.
I want to set up a server with a lot of users so that (in order of importance):
Users cannot obtain ip addresses of other users with who, or last
Users cannot wall
Users can write to each other
Users are able to selectively mesg n other users, as opposed to simply blocking everyone
Point 1 is easily solved by a 660 on wtmp and utmp, but I don't know how to achieve the other points
The server runs Gentoo Linux
I have my VPS now, with ubuntu 9.10 OS.
I wonder about SSH.
What is it for, and how do I use it?
Also, in which order should I install apps on my server? (ex: PuTTY, IPTABLES, LAMP etc...)?
Thanks
I'm not quite sure if this is possible or not, but I need to force a certain security group's users to have their passwords expire so they'll be forced to change them on next login. The reason for this is because I applied a FGPP (password policy) to this particular group in order to enforce strong passwords. Well, many users have really weak passwords and they won't be changed unless they're forced.
Is there a way to do this without forcing everyone to a single password?

After reading Disk Partition Alignment Best Practices for SQL Server, I just want to give those advices a try, but on my linux test server. What are the required parameters in order to set the partition offset (for fdisk if possible, or any other partitioning tool available on a linux live cd)?
I've disabled the web server on Snow Leopard, and I'm using an emulated Ubuntu with Lighttpd web server.
In order to access to the web pages I need to specify the ip of the emulated machine. However I now need to associated such ip with "localhost" in Leopard environment.
When I type localhost in Leopard I actually want to visit the localhost on the Ubuntu machine.
Do I need apache on leopard to make the forward or can I change network settings in Leopard or what ?
thanks
I have two Windows VPS's that talk to each other.
1) I already firewall Remote Desktop to a few IPs.
I want to require me to connect instead to the server via VPN (IPSec?) in order to then be able to RD.
2) I want to also only permit access to port 80 on the server if I am VPN'd in to the server (authenticated)
3) If possible, I want to secure communication between other VPS's I have using the same method?
Thanks
