I'm using fedora 9, 64-bit edition, on a machine acting as a client. I've installed samba-client 3.2.0 from a binary package. I amn't running the server portion of samba(smbd, nmbd, or even winbindd). I'm trying to access shares on another windows machine, on the same network 192.168.1.0/24. Both machines, the client and the server, are using DHCP to acquire IP addresses. When I

...stic for two 'non-partial' Pearson correlations, (z1-z2)/sqrt( 1/(n1-3) + 1/(n2-3) ), based on Fisher's Z transform z=ln((1+r)/(1-r))/2 for each correlation coefficient (used e. g. in the commercial program Power and Precision). Correction for degrees of freedom as proposed in e. g. Afifi & Clark: Computer-aided Multivariate Analysis (3. ed., section 7.7) suggests the test statistic (z1-z2)/sqrt( 1/(n1-q-3) + 1/(n2-q-3) ) (assumed standard normal under the null hypothesis of no difference in 'mean' partial correlations; here z1 and z2 are the two transformed partial...

Using a p-value to make any kind of decision is questionable to begin with, and especially unreliable in choosing covariates in regression. Old studies, e.g. by Walls and Weeks and by Bendel and Afifi, have shown that if predictive ability is the criterion of interest and one wishes to use p-values for deciding whether to include a covariate, one should set the p-value bar very large, at 0.25 and even 0.40. By contrast, methods such as AIC are aimed at avoiding overfitting, by penalizing models...

Hello Guys, After several days searching on the net and checking my set-up, I can't resolve an issue with Eaton network-M2 and "github nut". I have two ups on the LAN : - Eaton S3 Evolution with "old network card" => no problem. - Eaton 5PX3000 with new "network-M2" card  => I can't load driver. sudo /usr/local/ups/sbin/upsdrvctl start Network UPS
