Samba-LDAP too imature for production?
...l scripts simply do not work with the 'add user script' setting or if they do, then there is an an undocumented bug, issue, etc. The scripts work fine from the command line but aparently samba won't execute them properly. Since I cannot expect my users to understand enough of the vagaries of Unix to log in with ssh and add thier machines to the system I don't see how samba-ldap can be implemented in a production environment.

Not nice behaviour of nlminb (windows 32 bit, version, 2.11.1)
I won't add to the quite long discussion about the vagaries of nlminb, but will note that over a long period of software work in this optimization area I've found a number of programs and packages that do strange things when the objective is a function of a single parameter. Some methods quite explicitly throw an error when n<2. It seems nlminb do...

stdio to port forward?
All-- I'm attempting to implement something I've wanted for a while...a stdio link to a TCP port forward, at least for SSH2, but preferably for either protocol. There's certainly no technical reason this can't be done, but the vagaries of terminal / file descriptor handling are posing something of a challenge. Does anyone have any suggestions for "correct" approaches for this? I absolutely don't want to simply fork off a version of SSH in the background and connect() to its port forward -- that's quite...

These vagaries are why many environments simply disable the validation of hostkeys in their .ssh/config settings and move on to work that is of some more effective use to their workplace.

[LLVMdev] [cfe-dev] LLVM & Clang file management
...s I don't think FileManager is the right API layer to abstract at (it is too specific to Clang's usage, and too hard to propagate through the rest of LLVM). My intuition is that it is better to set out to define a lower level VFS layer that is rich enough to support everything we do and the vagaries of Win32/Unix, but is otherwise minimal. One requirement I hope any proposed VFS design will support is emulating Win32 on Unix (and vice versa), which imposes assorted API complications but I think is worth it overall. I see many positive future technologies we could build if we had a good VFS l...

One issue I found was the cpu behaviour when converting from float/double to int32 when the source float is outside the range of values that can be represented by the int32. For instance: float int32_ppc in32_x86 2147483649.0...

Look at changeset 14369: "Copy the libogg bitpacker directly into libtheoradec. Due to the vagaries of -fPIC and dynamic linking, we wasting a _huge_ amount of time on function call overhead. We also take the opportunity to get rid of our wrapper around the old libogg API and implement the API we want directly.

random numbers
...ent one; Darwin Kernel 7.9.0). My understanding is that random number generators internally produce 32 bit integers, which then get converted into the desired distribution. I'm a little surprised there doesn't seem to be a way to get at them. Or is one supposed to do runif()*2^32-2^31? 3) Vagaries of the underlying C++ random number generator could also complicate life.

RFC: ELF Autolinking
...mas should be handled in a general way to allow the same source code to work in different environments. I would like to propose that we focus on autolinking exclusively and that we divorce the implementation from the idea of "linker options" which, by nature, would tie source code to the vagaries of particular linkers. I don't see much value in supporting other linker operations so I suggest that the binary representation be a mergable string section (SHF_MERGE, SHF_STRINGS), called .autolink, with custom type SHT_LLVM_AUTOLINK (0x6fff4c04), and SHF_EXCLUDE set (to avoid the contents ap...

What about FileManager is too high level / too clang specific? The uniquing logic? The possibility to add in stats caches? Do you think we'd want to have a CachingFileSystem on top of the VFS layer? That would sound more orthogonal, on the other ha...

options()$width ignored by print.formula
Hi all, I'm working with summary.gam() and noticed that the options()$width argument is ignored by some components of that function, in particular the formula, which is printed at an arbitrary length regardless of the desired width. I've tracked the problem back to print.formula(), so at a lower level than summary.gam(). Is there a way around this that I'm missing? library(mgcv) #

Displaying a distribution -- was: Combining two histograms
I am immediately reminded of something I read which goes "A sufficiently trained statistician can read the vagaries of a Q-Q plot like a sharman can read a chicken's entrails, with a similar recourse to scientific principles. Interpreting Q-Q plots is more a visceral than an intellectual exercise. The uninitiated are often mystified by the process. Experience is the key here." http://www.maths.murdoch....

Selectively shading areas under two density curves
Dear Listers, I am drawing a plot of two density curves, for male and female incomes. I would like to shade/hatch/color (whatever) the areas under the curves which are distinctive for each gender. This is the code I have tried so far: m <- density(topmal.d$y, bw = "sj") f <- density(topfem.d$y, bw = "sj") par(mfrow = c(1,1)) plot(x = c(0,400), y = c(0,0.02), type =
