We've been diligently searching for something similar with very little success. "All" that we want to achieve is a secure file transfer system with the following, seemingly simple, requirements:
The solution must:
1. Run on a Linux host server 2. Be clientless - require no installation or configuration on the user end 3. Secure login - login names and passwords must not be cleartext 4. Support download and upload - from the client side must save to a specified existing location on the host network 5. Display an existing file structure - files saved to an existing network drive must be displayed to the web 6. Run on a "in house" server 7. Support large files ~ 1gb transferred and uploaded 8. Users must only interact only with pages their group memberships allow 9. Authenticate on an existing LDAP db
It doesn't seem like a lot to ask... If anyone has any suggestions please don't hold back.
Suse will hold your hand through the whole process of setting up and authenticating to OpenLDAP and integrating with Samba. You still need to know what you're doing, and you'll probably want to tweak a thing or two, but Suse makes it nice and friendly. You need the enterprise version (which you pretty much need to pay for) to setup the server, that's the only real catch.
I accidently got into last years awards as a seat filler and was not all that impressed. The whole show was just a marketing circle jerk for some game companies and SpikeTV. Every table had a rep from the game company, a big name celeb, and a spiketv celeb. At my table Ray Liotta was extremely adgitated to be there, John Henson was nervously studdying his lines, the rep for GTA was on the phone with his family the whole time, and sadly Jenna Jameson never sat in here assigned seat next to me.
disagree... I find the web great for getting started on a project and for getting to a more advanced level, but it's that middle ground that a book shines. Most how-to or informational sites just don't have the helpful fluff that a book carries, sure you can assemble the same amount of info from various web sources but a book is just easier.
Plus there's just something wierd about sitting on the can with a laptop.
"Ever read Tom Clancy's "The Sum of All Fears" (no seeing the movie does not count)"
Um, it's a Tom Clancy screenpla^h^h^h book, watching the movie does indeed count.
Seems a lot like the battles that you read about in history books to me. The civil war musket lines don't sound like they were very fun but, smart or not, that's the way they did it. Something about honor...BAH.
You'll need:
1. PC with large harddrive and either Win or Linux/Samba
2. Network capable boot disk, we use http://www.nu2.nu/bootdisk/network/
3. The bootable version of Ghost
We have the bootdisk setup to recognize the nic's we typically deal with. It boots and maps a drive to the "server" with the big drive in it. The Ghost exe is on the server. Simple, effective, cheap.
"340 billion billion billion billion unique addresses"
That's got to be enough addresses for every word on every page of the Library of Congress, maybe even each letter. Someone wanna count for me.
Next year:
1. Remove Quake
2. Insert current "high end game"
3. Repeat

I'd be fine with it if it shut them up.
Really, I'd rather pay a few unnecessary cents on every data CD I burned if it meant I didn't have to deal with DRM, suponeas, bitching about sales figures etc etc etc...

Hmm, maybe you are using software gl?!? I'm running ona a p3 8??, 512 MB, and a pos TNT2 card. Even with that card I'm getting an average 20-30 FPS Yea, it's not the greatest FPS but better than when I had that box running Win 2k
Once I came home to my mom holding the vacuum cleaner hose up to the computer. When I tapped her on the shoulder she jumped, obviously panicked. She had mistakenly put a cd in the old 5" floppy drive and was trying to "suck it back out" before anyone came home.
"I hope that RedHat successfully forces both Gnome and KDE to become compatible with one another which would result in the creation of a single desktop. This would be the greatest gift to the Linux world."
I fail to see how this is such a gift, the desktops are different but not *that* different, just enough to give some nice variety. Since when does the linux world want to limit choice. Perhaps all the distros should merge to one unified, down the middle, bland, not-specifically-good-at-anything version. Oh wait that already didn't work.
Come on Hemos, choice and variety are what it's all about. I really hope that comment was just a troll.
Three Borg in one day is a little much. Perhaps this could have been a positive Red Hat story instead of yet another negative MS post. The horse is dead for the day.
amen brother. I do the same thing for the same reasons. My only trouble is heat buildup. My pcmcia cards get REAL hot (too hot to touch) if I'm not careful. I have to lift them off the table a bit and leave the screen lifted to improve air flow.
It really bugs me that they want to deny my right to make a mix CD. Is that no longer a right? A lot of people legaly (I would think) make mix CD's of their favorite songs but now they will be denied that right or criminalized for even trying.
