I''m a little confused as to how booleans work in Rails. Which is better in the database? boolean or int(1)? True == 1 and False == 0, right? Using SQLite, I tried to set a value to true inside the database but it gave me an error. MySql didn''t, so I had to switch to int(1) for it to work. Is this just how it is? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received

Hi, I'm new to this list but not to Samba. I've recently been having problems with Samba that I have not encountered (ever). I cannot determine what the cause is but an hour or so into my dialup connection, my machine starts flooding the first dns server in /etc/resolv.conf with dns requests. I know it's samba responsible for the flooding because as soon as I kill both smbd and nmbd

I''m using acts_as_taggable_on and I want to get a list of unique taggings. How can I do this? In a more general sense, say that I have a Product model with attributes name and price. I have these: id: 1 Name: Juice Price: 5 id: 2 Name: Juice Price: 5 So when I do a Product.find(:all) I''ll get both, but I only want one. How can I do this so that no matter now many

I've got to networks connected through leased line, routing set between networks, WINS server running on Samba. There's one primary samba server, and Win98/WinXP clients connected to it.

From: Sui Jingfeng <suijingfeng at loongson.cn> Currently, the default VGA device selection is not perfect. Potential problems are: 1) This function is a no-op on non-x86 architectures. 2) It does not take the PCI Bar may get relocated into consideration. 3) It is not effective for the PCI device without a dedicated VRAM Bar. 4) It is device-agnostic, thus it has to waste the effort to

Hello, I'm wondering just how critical it really is to turn off oplocks. It appears that not only Windows 2k server, but also Netware 5 and above defaults to having these enabled. I just spoke with two software companies running databases off of file servers (no database server, just MDAC stuff), and they had never heard of it, much less require it to be disabled. Everything I've

Hi, I want to setup Samba as a new PDC. I followed the instructions on IBM's site (http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/esdd/tutorials/samba/index.html) The problem I currently have is that Windows 9X boxes can't connect to the Mandrake 9.1 Bamboo box. However, I can make connections on localhost to localhost using smbclient //localhost/share -U username I've tried a couple of different

Hi everybody, does somebody know why when I install a samba 2.2.5 or 2.2.6, it doesn't put the file which contains the password samba, i.e. /etc/samba/smbpasswd . With the result that when I have just created a user linux and that I want to add it under samba "smbpasswd user" it lets me enter the password but failed when it wants to reach the base. Somebody has an idea? thanks

I am re-posting this with a subject line in line (hopefully) with your guidelines. Apologise if this causes any confusion. I'm fairly new to samba but I've spent too long on this - can anyone help?

Hi, I'm trying to get Samba on a Linux box to work. Authentication via user level worked fine, but what I really want is it to take user authentication from a win2k box, which is our "primary local server". The win2k box is not a pdc, (the real pdc is 2000km away, close to the polar circle), but according to the docs it doesn't have to be. So in smb.conf I put: security =

When I double-click on the Debian 2.0 machine it prompts me for
