Reading all of these posts really cracks me up. I have seen so many self-righteous posters talking about "hand coding" HTML as if it was some kind of difficult task. Here's a bit of information for you all: HTML is easy, and knowing how to "code" it hardly makes you the hard core individual you see yourself as.
Wait, so hand coding is easy, but it's "like writing all my documents in postscript just to be hard core"? Which is it, something that's hard-core and therefore a gratuitous waste of time, or simply another more controllable development methodology?
Personally, I feel cooler writing Perl than assembler, but then, that's just me. A wysiwyg editor leaves the page design up to someone else, which is fine as long as "someone else" knows what browsers I'm targeting and is just as concerned with cross-browser compatability as I am. Unfortunately, most wysywig editor developers are concerned with IE. That might be fine if you're the only one working on the page, or if everyone wholl ever maintain the site is using the same editor - *and* you only care about IE's market share - but, just like commented code v/s uncommented code, maintaining the site later on is much more difficult if you're locked in to some GUI's design decisions (which generally don't include nicely indented HTML that's whitespace independent).
I dunno, I guess I'm offended by the comment's short-sighted assumption that I use a text editor just to get chicks. I use it because it works over ssh and it gives me absolute control. It's the best tool for *my* job.
If you wrote the HTML *properly*, you could generally use templates or something similar to generate the rest of the site. "But my giant site has an inconsistent layout that doesn't lend itself to templating." Well, that site probably creates a poor user experience, and probably could benefit from a redesign.
BTW, not only do I maintain some very large sites using only gvim, but I also happen to work for a web development company wherin all of the dedicated site coders work in text editors. Somehow, we manage to get by very well without wysiwg except possibly for the initial page designs - and those are graphics people, not HTML people.
That's instantaneous bandwidth, which isn't as relevent as average bandwidth over the duration of the transfer. When the plane's stopped, bandwidth drops to 0 - but the plane has to stop for a period before completeing the transfer. The plane also has o accelerate at least twice (though once in a negative direction).

Samba 3 By Example

WinME can authenticate against a domain, just as every (networkable) version of windows is able to. That login is then used when connecting to any network shares. Anyway, when the poster said "Domain Master" he probably meant "Browse Master", since what was the problems being caused were probably a result of browser elections, etc, and not domain logon issues.
Every version of windows after Win 95 SP1 uses encrypted passwords by default. That includes WinME. You have to apply a registry change (documented in the docs/Registry/ directory of your samba source distro) to make them use clear text passwords.
Linux authenticating against LDAP isn't very hard - most of the newer distros just require a couple button presses to set that up, and you should check out PADL's site (padl.com, IIRC) for scripts to migrate your/etc files to LDAP. Or check out my howto, which is generally near the top of a google search for "linux ldap authentication" or similar. Samba-to-LDAP is also easy, if you follow the step-by-step readme's that are all over the place (including examples/LDAP/ in the samba source distro).
That 485 page PDF document bundled with the current Samba distro is really a useful read.
BTW, calling people stupid doesn't help much, esp when you're wrong.;)
That's the most awesome part - that some guy actually gets irritated when he thinks someone else is copying from a horrible show. Like everyone watches "Farscape", and everyone likes it *sooo* much that they'd start using made-up words from said show.
Tacos. Burning Tacos. I need a.sig that mentions burning Tacos somehow... Yeah.
Man, *I* care! My day wouldn't be complete without hearing how some guy's stepping down because the group doesn't fit his original vision anymore.
It's even better that he concurrently said stupid things like "I'm also stopping X because of something unrelated". It's kinda like a hunger strike without the efficacy, you know? Like "I'm going to stop wearing pants because I don't like peach pie." That kind of idiocy really makes me proud to not be an idiot.
Surprisingly, many people find that they can make lots of money by gambling. With non-directed spam, there's less effort than "semi-directed" spam (lots less effort), the same or possibly a greater potential payoff (because some people who may have been filtered might have been interested anyway), and almost 0 risk thanks to international open relays (hooray Korea and.com.br). Hmm, favorable odds, good payoff, little problem even if you're caught and prosecuted - sounds like a good deal for those with no conscience...
I'd rather have the mechanic who's worked on lots of cars, and spends his weekends working on his own car. I go into Auto Zone and ask the parts guy - who's been there for several years - for a square-flange carbuerator base gasket, and he asks "what's it going on?" It doesn't matter what it's going on - the damned gasket is the same one that was used on every Holley/Carter equipped car from the 50's up to the 70's, and on most any aftermarket intake manifold up to today. There's *1* gasket - why doesn't the parts guy know that?
Then, I can go to the NAPA, where a kid's been working for a few weeks. He's a lot younger than the guy at Auto Zone, and has a lot less parts store experience in terms of years. However, he knows what I want without me having to pull a car model out of my arse ("I dunno, try a '70 LS6 chevelle's gasket").
Years of experience don't automatically add up to quality of experience - they're just the easiest way to guess at experience. I've worked with programmers who have degrees and experience, but can't wrap their head around simple looping structures, and I've worked with people who have no professional experience but can write code with the best of them. Much like a credit score, "years of experience" is just a quantifier that has the right ratio of ease-of-use to accuracy for the typical management type. It's not completely accurate, though, just very easy to use.
Wasn't that just last year - when Butters was kidnaped/ran away and his parents went to that support group with Senator Whatshisname (the one who had the missing intern which was "forgoten about" after 9/11), the Ramseys, and OJ where they were supporting each other after the "mysterious" disappearance of people?
The end where they showed the baseball players ("Big Mac" is the only one I can remember off the top of my head) while giving the anti-steroid lecture was pretty priceless, too.:)
USB pen drive. Cost nearly nothing, holds several files, works on most computers.
Email is an *awful* file transport medium - since you're using webmail anyway, why not use something like ftp or http's PUT? Its cheap to get several gigs of web space now, and most web browsers support drag-n-drop uploading via ftp...

I thought I saw some TV special a few years back that claimed HD had patented/copyrighted/trademarked/something-ed the sound. Huh. Now I'm gonna have to waste the whole afternoon looking for another source of information either verifying you or myself. Great.:)
No, you can't make any bike sound like a Harley, unless you don't know what the Harley sound is. A big chunk of that sound is from the angle seperating the clinders, and the sound is copyrighted. You are breaking teh law if you ever sell that bike that you made to "sound like a harley", which probaly just means "loud" to the non-mechanic's ears (even a quiet Harley sounds like a Harley).
Regarding the "belt-drive" - well, if you like a harsh ride on your "comfy cruiser" then sure, go with a chain or shaft-based final drive. If you're concerned about making your cruiser more comfortable, *quieter*, or otherwise more livable, stick with Harley's lifetime warranteed carbon-fiber belt-based final drive. Then, go get a service manual and learn how to adjust it properly. I've got several friends who are Harley riders (and Harley mechanics, in some cases). They ride a *lot*. The final drive gives no problems.
Take a physics course some day. Note that the belt doesn't stretch and get hot, nor does it make any noise. Where's the "energy loss"? Now look at all of the pivot points in a chain. Then listen to the noise. *That* is power loss - power being converted to heat and noise. I don't know how many chains I've broken over the years on various chain-driven devices (several), but I've never broken a Harley drive belt...
Eh, good troll, though. Most Slashdot readers have no mechanical ability whatsoever.:p
First, split the traffic up with iptables, tagging "interface 2" traffic with a fwmark.
$IPTABLES -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j MARK --set-mark 0x05 $IPTABLES -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j MARK --set-mark 0x06
Then, make sure you have used iproute to select the routing table you use based on the fwmark (requires entries in/etc/iproute2/rt_tables for each table)
echo 100 tone >>/etc/iproute2/rt_tables echo 200 ttwo >>/etc/iproute2/rt_tables ip route add $router1 dev eth1 src $eth1_ip table tone ip route add default via $router1 table tone ip route add $router2 dev eth2 src $eth2_ip table toneip route add default via $router2 table ttwo ip rule add fwmark 5 table tone ip rule add fwmark 6 table ttwo
There you go - stuff going out on port 80 goes out eth1 on T1 number 1, everything else goes out eth2 on T1 number 2. You may wanna SNAT in iptables -t nat (POSTROUTING) based on the fwmark, too - I don't remember if ip route will handle that (probably not).
