When I switch to the Finder using cmd-tab, no open Finder windows show up.
I switched to finder with cmd-tab, Finder is brought to the front, but its windows are not.
I have my users appdata (roaming) stored on a external server in the location that they're normally in. I have some users that are in two locations equally. This provides a problem when someone tries to open up Firefox on a computer in a location other than where their appdata is stored, it takes forever.
Is there a way that I can clone the redirected appdata (roaming) folder to two locations and have the folder redirection look for appdata (roaming) based on the location that the user is at?
My PC is 5 years old and I have had a great history for failed updates. Regardless if I open my C: drive, I have bunch of folders with names which sound something like this:2d51a0107296557123f92939e121
I can not delete those and I they are occupying more and more space on my PC everyday and I am not sure how to get rid with those since when I try to delete them manually, system just does not let me do it and throws security exception on my face.
I tried to install an OpenVPN access server in Centos 6 on a linode VPS.
The installation error occours when adding the user "openvpn". However, the installation is okay for my ubuntu 11.10 distro in another VPS.
The error message is
"useradd: canot open /etc/passwd"
The detail of My "/etc/passwd" file:
"-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1194 Oct 9 00:33 /etc/passwd"
So how can I add the user "openvpn" to setup the VPN service?
Thanks.
When opening a new window in IE8 or IE9 (doesn't matter if using a link or window.open), my selected keyboard language is changing to English (doesn't matter what was the previous selection, tried it with a few different languages).
This doesn't happen for me in Chrome or Firefox (all the browsers are installed in their English version), and I tested it in Windows 7 and Windows 2008R2.
Is there any way to avoid that?
If there isn't - supposing the new window is within my website or
application, is there a way to change it back?
Occasionally, my PC grinds to a halt, and by the time I get any monitoring tools open (don't forget my PC is slow at this point), performance has picked up a bit.
A friend recently told me he uses iPulse, which is awesome since it's always running, and you can just glance at it when there's an issue to see what is happening. Unfortunately it's only for the Mac.
Does anybody know of a good Windows system monitoring tool similar to iPulse for the Mac?
Is it dangerous what will happen to me and the PC?
EDIT:
It's a serious question, the other day i almost spilled a bottle of cola inside my pc (the case was open).
I'm using Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8, and occasionally one off my favorites (Link) folders will get a very small box in the upper right corner (on the favorites menu drop down itself) and not open at all. I can't figure out how it got there or how to disable it, and I have to completely shut IE down and restart it to get rid of it.
Any clues on what's going on?
I've downloaded Advanced Chrome (http://browser.taokaizen.com/) and am now using it instead of Chrome.
Each time I open the browser, it keeps asking me if I would like to set it as the default browser, which I do. When the browser is reopened, it asks me again. I've looked at Settings and tried to click the 'make Chromium my default browser' button, but it doesn't appear to register my wish to make it the default browser - nothing happens!
Any ideas?
I have a CentOS server, VPS. After running this command I can't work with server and get the same error in all actions (SSH, Login, ls and ...)
The command:
ln -s /lib/libc.so.1 /lib/libc.so.6 -f
And the error is:
/sbin/shutdown: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I have VNC to server but because I can't login to server, that's unusable.
Thanks in advance.
Are there any extensions for Chrome that allow me to export all currently opened tabs as a text file, containing all the URLs of those tabs?
I don't necessarily need it to be a text file if there is another way that you can think of. My goal is to share the URLs with someone via email.
I'm currently using Session Manager to save my open tabs but it has no functionality to export them as described above.
I recently tried opening one of my Python projects with CMD to see what would happen. The result did nothing amazing, but Windows 7 thought I wanted to open .py files in CMD all the time. I have tried everything, setting it back to python.exe does not work, I even went to Control Panel to see if it could help, but Control Panel couldn't help either. So if someone could help me please that would be great. Thank you.
Hi
I want to close an open port which is in listening mode between my client and server application.
Is there any manual command line option in Linux to close a port ??
NOTE: I came to know that "only the application which owns the connected socket should close it, which will happen when the application terminates."
I dont understand why it is only possible by the application which opens it ... But still eager to know if there is any another way to do it ??
Hi,
This probably sounds ridiculous - but Im using Geany on Ubuntu 9.04. I noticed that it has a neat little terminal window at the bottom.
Would it be possible/and if so how would I set up if I could SSH onto a FreeBSD server via that terminal then open a file on the server in Geany?
Thanks.
When you open folders with long filenames day to day, having it choose to use the large icons view drives me nuts.
Know any way to force it to default to details? Thanks!
Emacs does not seem to respect the OS's key repeat rate. I'm using emacs in the terminal. I've set the repeat rate to as fast as possible by directly editing the settings in the following file (I restarted after making the change):
open ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist
The rest of the system observes the repeat rate. The terminal works as expected, as does vim. But, when I use emacs I still get the annoyingly slow repeat rate.
Let's say I have four VM's open, each running an identical version of Windows. Under my current setup, the guest OS will be loaded into memory four times. Much of that is wasted space.
Using any VM host on the market, is there any way to consolidate that memory usage?
I'm running Windows Vista (32 bit Home Premium SP2) and despite having Kaspersky Internet Security on, fully up to date and activated, cannot stop the security warning icon from showing.
I click on that icon and select Open Now and yet it still shows the warning.

I would like to monitor an email server - not whether the port is open and receiving, but rather that a "canary" message sent every so often actually arrives somewhere else. I have had a problem with a server getting firewalled off and no one noticing that cron jobs are not coming from the machine for a few weeks. Of course, the machine itself cannot send out a notification if it is having problems, so this requires an outside service. Any ideas?

I've noticed recently that Microsoft Word 2007 on Windows XP is opening by default straight text files as RTL instead of LTR. These are English written files, and contain no Unicode or characters other than ASCII. I work in three or four languages on the computer so have the language bar open, this problem happens when the language is selected to EN (United Kingdom).
Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere, perhaps in Word itself?
Is there a minimal installation I can do to make RAID information on a PowerEdge server available in SNMP so I can monitor it with Nagios?
I have found command line utilities I could use check_by_ssh with, but I believe I would need to setuid/sudo them which sounds too risky to me. I am open to other ideas as well.
I was wondering if you can write the following action in a batch command?
eventvwr (open the event viewer)
Menu Action Connect to another computer
Type in the name of the computer.
Connect.
This would make my life just a few minutes/day more efficient ;-)
Update
As we've just upgraded to Windows 7 and I needed a new solution, it seems to be possible like this:
%windir%\system32\eventvwr.exe targethostname
