Voicemailmain automatic extension detection?
...ing from my internal users automatically get to the right extension, without having the user enter their extension? I'm thinking that I could have the local SPA boxes translate, or have each user live in a context where the extension in question exists uniquely per user, but both of these seem kludgey. Thanks in advance for clues! -- Mason Loring Bliss mason@blisses.org http://blisses.org/ Anything can be impossible, given sufficient bureaucracy.

Creating grid graphics with grid.layout
...n use lapply to visit only those viewports to place the plots by specifying an x and y vector like so: x <- c(2,4,2,4) y <- c(2,2,4,4) i <- 1 lapply(list(plot1,plot2,plot3,plot4),function(j){ print(j,vp=viewport(layout.pos.col=x[i],layout.pos.row=y[i]) i <<- i + 1 }) Looks kludgey. Is there a better way? Also, I created debug code to visit those viewports where *nothing* is supposed to be printed except for a grey box with black edges: z <- outer(logical(5),logical(5),"==") for (i in 1:length(x)) z[x[i],y[i]] <- FALSE for (i in 1:5){ for (j in 1:5){...

[newbie] separating plot output from debug output
...and debug messages, which I don't want in my PDF(s). The solutions I can imagine are 1 Append to a single PDF, but I understand this is not feasible, no? 2 Create a buncha PDFs with code above, download them to my laptop, merge them to a single PDF, upload it. Feasible but annoying and kludgey. 3 Separate processing from plotting, e.g., setup # but not pdf(...) for each part of input { write(process1(part), intermediate) } pdf(...) for each part of intermediate { plot(process2(part)) } cleanup # does dev.off() Again, feasible but kludgey. 4 No status and debug messages. I...

Re-reading config file not working?
I sent this before but I figured I'd send it again since my current method is rather kludgey... Whenever I try to send a HUP to icecast it always fails when re-reading the config file: EROR event/event_config_read Error parsing config, not replacing existing config However I know the config is good because the server starts up without any issues (right now I've had to resort to jus...

Running applications when a queued call is answered
...ait(2) exten => 3772,4,Dial(SIP/sgifford) to run an external application and wait 2 seconds while the caller still heard ringing. Is there a way to do something similar when a queued call is delivered? Maybe with AGI? I've seen some recommendations to tail the logfile, but that seems kludgey... I'm currently using the "1.0.7-BRIstuffed-0.2.0-RC7k" Asterisk package included with Debian 3.1 (Sarge), but I'd be happy to upgrade to a newer version if that would help. Thanks for any tips or ideas! ----Scott.

Quicken - Registration wants Internet Explorer
...ownload stock quotes online, Quicken wants me to register the product, and to do this attempts to open Internet Explorer. It can't find IE, so it just sits there waiting. I eventually close the window, get a warning message from Quick, and then proceed to download quotes. It works, but it's kludgey. Does anyone have a way around this? Due to numerous warnings on Wine sites I'm not anxious to load IE at all. Thanks, Mark

match.call to obtain the name of a function
...tring equal to the name of the function. One use for this: To generate a filename for use in pdf(). This enables me to keep track of which function generated a particular graphic came. match.call() puts parentheses at the end of the name. I don't want parentheses in a filename. The following kludgey function gives the desired result. > JANK function(x, y) { one<-deparse(match.call()) functionName<-gsub("\\(.*", "", one, perl=T) cat("The name of this function is ", functionName, "\n") } > JANK(55, pi^2) The name of this function i...

I'm not sure this is the right thing to do. flac is not really meant to store the metadata of other formats. are we still talking about the SoundForge comments? to answer your question, yes, it's possible, it just feels kludgey.

I know nothing. * ao/include/ao/ao.h includes os_types.h. Hmmm... somebody should have caught that earlier. * src/Makefile.am: kludgey made it compile by manually specifying which modules to compile.

running tomcat as non-root user.. (/var/run pidfile issue)
...gets wiped out on reboot. Ive searched and found this https://blog.hqcodeshop.fi/archives/93-Handling-varrun-with-systemd.html which says to use ExecStartPre to fudge creating directories in /var/run so what non-root users can write there.. Is that the suggested way to do this? It seems awful kludgey. Jason

Handling unique cases
...llow my developers to run a special script on QA servers and nowhere else. I put this sort of thing in place: class app-server { packages: foo:; bar:; baz:; if $environment == ''qa'' { file { ''a'': content => ... } } which feels kinda kludgey to me. Is there a better way to handle unique cases like this in puppet? Thanks, Everybody! Guy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

System-wide sieve script?
...I was trying to find out if there was a system-wide sieve script (maybe /etc/dovecot.sieve?) that would hopefully be run first, followed by any per-user sieve code. Anyone know if this is already possible, or if not, if there are any plans to implement this? I'm assuming one could make a kludgey fix by having every .dovecot.sieve include a system-wide file, but that would allow a user to remove that "include" if they choose. I'd like to have a centrally controlled, immutable set of rules that all mail goes through. If I missed something in the wiki or archives, I offer m...

force user vs read list
...o ask before even trying just to make sure that any discovery isn't later deemed a bug and changed. If the force user overrides the read list, I suppose I can just set up an alternate share pointing to the samba path that is read only with a different set of valid users, but that just feels so kludgey... The samba version in use is 2.2.8a, but I will be upgrading to 3.0.2a in the very near future, in case there is any difference. Thanks in advance for any help.

Parametric links for glm?
...ntioned that it would be nice to have a way to specify binomial links that involved free parameters and described some experience with a Gosset link involving a free degrees of freedom parameter, and a Tukey-lambda link with two free parameters. My implementation of this involved some rather kludgey modifications of binomial, make.link and glm that (essentially) added a "..." argument to binomial permitting the parameters to be passed down to the fitting routines. So, in the Gosset case, for example, had the following passage in make.link, involving a free degrees of freedo...

Database Triggered Events in Rails.
...ke it''s meant for slow running tasks, not thousands of messages flying back and forth. I was also thinking of, not touching the database in the thread, but posting the results back to a separate instance of the rails app, and let that instance handle the writes to the database. This seems kludgey though. I''ve heard that merb, and some of those are threadsafe, maybe I can have this piece of it, using that instead? Or perhaps something else.

Interesting permissions issue with nagios_* providers
...ially in Debian. Besides writing to the wrong file (I fixed that issue) I''ve noticed there is a umask issue where the config files end up being owned by root with perms 0640. This causes nagios to spit milk out of its nose because it cannot read the configuration files. I came up with a kludgey solution to the problem but I''m not happy with it. Anybody out there run into this and fixed it? I''m curious to see what others came up with to fix this. For those that are curious as to how I fixed the "wrong file" problem I came up a solution where in my site.pp file...

Make check failure
...to cause any real breakage. As far as controversial goes, I probably should have put it in scare quotes. The kind of controversial I'm talking about is the name of the function I added (I don't like _fill() much myself, but nothing better seemed obvious) or the decision to add a somewhat kludgey additional input function rather than break the ABI and add a one shot control. If the new function stays it will likely need a test case. I'm not going to write one until the decision is final that we'll go that route. Cheers

UPS Losing Connection
Installed a new Tripplite Smart1500LCD on a CentOS 7 host using the usb connector. Nut does connect: $upsc ups battery.charge: 100 battery.runtime: 1407 battery.type: PbAC ... But after a half hour or so the connection is lost. Restarting nut re-establishes the connection. Any idea what might be causing the dissconnection?
