VLC can download MMS streaming video using the following command...
C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC>vlc mms://blah.akamaistream.net/mystreaming.wmv :demux=dump :demuxdump-file=mystreaming.ps
... but it downloads the show at the regular reading speed. For shows that last longer than a few minutes, I was wondering if someone could recommend a good, preferable free, download for Windows to speed downloading?
Hi,
I've just begun to use the Terminal in Mac OS X and I've found the 'man' command very useful, although very often the explanations are too compact or complicated for me. I am looking for a very basic reference guide – like O'Reilly makes, for example. But in there I didn't find an entry for basic commands like ls or ln and a layman's explanation of all the flags and options. Could anybody recommend me something?
Thansk a bunch in advance

My server is installed on a guest OS on vmware. It really bugs me because I can't access it from the host OS's browser even though there is no discrepancy between /etc/hosts, /etc/sysconfig/network, httpd.conf files. Issuing ifconfig command also returns the same IP. I have also enabled netwroking in the vmware settings. And I can ping the guest OS's IP from the host. Any insights pls???

I am writing a RHEL kickstart script, and in my %post, I need to install a JRE.
Basically, the current setup involves me needing to manually go in after first boot and set the newly installed JRE as the default using the alternatives --config command. Is there a way for me to pass arguments to alternatives so I don't have to manually pick the correct JRE?
I have gone ahead and selected the Windows Classic theme in WIN7's "Window Color and Appearance" to turn off Aero.
I'm looking to replicate the "windows XP style" theme due to some screen recognition software that was built on an XP machine.
Is it possible to edit/import the "windows XP style" theme file and use it in WIN7?
I am mostly looking to get the colors/fonts similar. Windows/buttons would be good too.
Is anybody aware of how to avoid the latest version of the Ubuntu CD-live from re-connecting to the Internet from the command line while it is still connected? It should prevent Ubuntu from re-connecting after it is disconnected. Versions after 9.04 have the annoying habit of re-connecting automatically.
