...onfused... Any pointers and help in this would be much appreciated. Ken. p.s Yes you're right I am completely out of my depth and probably shouldn't even be trying this, but due to budgetary constraints I have to try to come up with something without hiring a real programmer! -- -- Ken Gaul IT Infrastructure Manager T: +44 (0) 1236-628140 F: +44 (0) 1236-628101 M: +44 (0) 7770-573749 W: www.becogent.com E: ken.gaul@becogent.com

...red a half-day introduction to R for researchers at Augsburg University. The response was astonishing. Although Augsburg has no medical faculty and no engineers, there was far too much demand, with interest from every faculty (barring theology, "for one small village of indomitable Gauls still holds out against the R invaders" --- perhaps that should be obdurate rather than indomitable) and we had participants from computer science, geography, physics, law, linguistics, education, sociology, marketing, psychology, finance, ... The course itself went very well. We enco...

...ing sshd on SIGHUP. Without this, if there's a SIGALRM pending (for SSH1 key regeneration) when sshd is SIGHUP'ed, the newly exec'ed sshd will get the SIGALRM and not have a handler for it, and the default action will terminate the listening sshd. Analysis and patch from andrew at gaul.org. In my case no such signal was received. I am using OpenSSH 3.8.1p1 on FC3 with linux-2.6.16.13 kernel. The signal system call in Linux might fail if there is any pending signal for the process. It returns ERESTARTNOINTR. The following code in openssh sshd.c:main(): /* Mark...

Need help with setup/config. Current situation: (dovecot version : 1.1.7) we have system users and virtual users. (with different domains) Virtual users have procmail as LDA Now we want "deliver" to become the LDA I'm confused reading http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sendmail sendmail.mc: divert(-1) divert(0)dnl include(`/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4')dnl

I'm working on a rather interesting consulting problem with a client. A number of physical variables are measured on a number of cricket bowlers in the performance of a delivery. An example variable might be a directional component of angular momentum for a particular joint measured at a large number (101) of equally spaced timepoints. Each bowler generates a (fairly smooth) curve for

I have a machine with two swap partitions (sda2 and sda8). Both will have none as mount point. When I try to use puppet (using mount type) for managing fstab I get problems because "name" in both instances (i.e. mount path) will be "none". How should I fix this within puppet? Regards Halvard Moe

Is there an easy way to list which puppet daemons a puppetmaster controls? ... and from that, is there a way of getting the puppetmaster to store a copy of their compiled configuration somewhere? Thanks, mike

Hello everyone, A long time ago, I posted the Stanford Best Practices and I''ve gone through and updated it today. I''d like to have people go through it and see if we can strip out some Stanford specific stuff and tag this as an official best practice. I think an official best practice will be important as more and more people consider making shareable modules, etc (mostly

Hello Rails World, does anybody know a good solution for Strong Parameters in a Rails app authorized by Cancan (or a similar authorization gem)? def user_params if current_user.admin? params.require(:user).permit! else params.require(:user).permit(:password, :password_confirmation) end end Now I want to do this the "Cancan way". My first idea looks strange to me: def
