I have several samba servers on Debian 10 all using : samba 2:4.9.5+dfsg-5+deb10u1 amd64 I use tls cafile, tls certfile and tls keyfile with certificates from Sectigo (https://cert-manager.com) And when checking my connexion from the samba server, or from outside, I've got "unable to verify the first certificate" even if tls_cafile is provided in smb.conf.

Hi One of our customers has a Filemaker database which needs to be accessed for some data. Using the Web Companion, I can query the database for an XML version of the data. I need to be able to push this data into an array of hashes, so I can access it in a more convenient way. Filemaker is able to provide me with 2 XML formats (DSO-XML and FMP-XML): *********** DSO-XML ***********

Greetings R Users! I am posting to inquire about the proximity matrix in the randomForest R-package. I am having difficulty pushing very large data through the algorithm and it appears to hang on the building of the prox matrix. I have read on Dr. Breiman's website that in the original code a choice can be made between using an N x N matrix OR to increase the ability to compute large

Hi, I was reading an article recently about how google ranks results (among many other things of course) based on the proximity of the search terms in the source documents. In addition, the position of the search terms in the search query string itself is also taken into consideration when determining how important each term is. Does Xapian do something similar - at least for the first part?

I''m currently planning a social app in Rails that relies on being able to see how far you are from everyone else. It''s my intention to store rough geo-coordinates as part of the sign up process. My intention is to capture their zipcode or postal code, and then be able to query a webservice once for that data. It''s also possible that there might be a database or even

Dear all, i have a programming problem that should be simple, though i am stuck with it. Please note that this is not a specific geonames problem, though i use it as an example - it´s just a basic problem with lapply. I use the geonames webservices with the R geonames packages which works almost smoothly. I have a vector of Zipcodes and i want to do a geonames lookup for all of them, which

I''m trying to generate a rails pagination helper for some ferret search results, and I need to know how many total matches there are to my search query. I don''t see an obvious way of finding this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Carl Youngblood

Lucene has a syntax "foo bar"~10 for finding foo within 10 words of bar. Does ferret support this feature? (the ~ is used for fuzzy queries) Does rdig? This could be a deal breaker for me ''cos I really need proximity searches -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, Can anyone tell me if the Motorola Q has its Bluetooth always on like the IPhone? I want to use the Motorola Q in a Proximity Detection setup like that described on nerdvittles.com. I know the Treo 650 does not work well since the display must be on for the bluetooth to be on and this eats power. Thanks Chuck Bunn

I have an index in which I want different records to be accessible to different users. I think I can do this by adding a "users" field to each record in the index and narrow down my queries to only those records matching the current user''s userid. I have the userids separated by commas. What would be the right way to query for a certain user? I have to make sure that I

I''m getting a locale not set error. Does anyone know how I should set my locale in my rails environment so that ferret knows what to do? Why isn''t this a problem in the ruby version of ferret? Thanks, Carl

Along with the contents of the documents in my index, I have stored the date they were added. I want to search for keywords in the index but have the results be sorted by their date rather than their relevance to the keywords. How would I do this in ferret? Thanks, Carl

I seem to be getting the same document multiple times in my search results. I''m wondering if this is because by default a document is placed in the search results every time the word you''re looking for shows up. Is that the way it works? Thanks, Carl

I tried adding a FULLTEXT search index to a table of mine in MySQL, only to discover that the InnoDB table format doesn''t seem to support this feature. Switching to the MyISAM table type seemed to work, but I seem to have some recollection that ActiveRecord transactions aren''t fully atomic on MyISAM tables. Is this true or am I just remembering wrong? If so, does anyone have
