similar to: using centos utilities to extract windows self-extracted files

Hi folks, I have a curious problem when executing self extracting zip files from a samba share. Everything does work, but it is very very slow. Copying the .exe onto local disk (from the samba share) takes no time at all (500kb/sec). I would say it takes about 10 times as long to unzip when run directly from the samba share. This happens will all self-extracting exe files, and also from any share

Dear list, I needed to extract a zip-archive, and found zip.file.extract in utils. My only problem was the use of tempdir(), since I wanted to permanently extract the archive at a fixed location for later use. My own fix was simple, adding an extra parameter zipdir (without default), and within the function change tmpd <- tempdir() to tmpd = ifelse(missing(zipdir),tempdir(),zipdir) This

Saving Rdata files in a zip archive form can in some cases save a considerable amount of disk space. R has the zip.file.extract function to extract files from zip archives, but appears not to have any corresponding function to save in zipped form. (At least I have not been able to find anything in the help files or through searching the mail archives.) The system function can be used to call gzip

Hi, Currently streaming ogg isn't practical in this situation. That was one of the first things i checked into. WHen i looked i didn't see a streamer that did both ogg and mp3. Thanks.

Hello everyone, Can anyone give me some hint/suggestion for unzipping a file in R? The help file for "zip.file.extract" function seems to be difficult to understand. For example, the name of my zip file is "refGene.txt.gz", which is located in "C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\test1". I would like to unzip this file to the same directory. Here's

I tried zip.unpack to unzip a gz file under Windows and got "error 1 in extracting from zip file". Did I do something wrong or is there a better way of unziping a gz file in Windows? The gz file is fine as I could unzip it visually throught Windows. Thanks. Jianhua

I have a zip file. It is over 2Gb in size: -rw-r--r-- 1 sweh sweh 2383956582 Mar 13 13:44 test.zip The standard "unzip" program barfs: % unzip -l test.zip Archive: test.zip End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment

Hello, Does anyone have a guide for setting up an nfs server for unattended deployment of centos5? Basically what i want to do is boot a system from CD media, pass a boot parameter nfs, and ks= options then walk away, the box goes out to the nfs server, finds the kickstart file, reads, and does it. I've got several machines and i'd rather not do manual installs. Thanks. Dave.

Hello, I hope this is the right place to ask this one. I've got a FreeBSD 6.2 machine acting as an nfs server. It's exporting a home directory to several machines. On the server that home directory has a symlink in it to another directory on the filesystem. As long as users are on the server they can view the directory symlinked to, but if viewing through samba, they're

Dear all, i was working under R 1.6.2 but i wanted to install bioconductor under WinXP, and because R 1.7.1 contains the TclTk package and automatic installation of bioconductor packages, so i install it.

Hello, I'm trying to set up centos 5.1 to authenticate against an openldap server. I've got the authentication working, in that i can log in as a user contained within the ldap database but not in the system passwd/group files. The problem is instead of a prompt that for example looks like this: (username)@hostname:~/$ i'm getting this: (I have no name)@hostname:~/$

For archiving from source media (CD usually) to flac? I typically use EAC either from Windows or Wine as it allows for the most configuration. Off the top of my head I think Sound Juicer will do it for *nix, though there are probably others that work just as well. Chris Dave wrote: > Hi, > Thanks.

Hello All, Have recently started learning Sweave and Knitr. Am now trying to learn odfWeave as well. Things went pretty smoothly with Sweave and Knitr but I'm having some trouble with odfWeave. My understanding was that odfWeave should work in pretty much the same way as Sweave. With odfWeave, you set up an input .odt file in a folder, run that file through the odfWeave function, and then

Now i have a need to stream the same content as either aac+ or ogg vorbis whichever would be easiest to set up and give the best quality. I want these new streams to handle both broadband and dialup users without sacrificing quality. My problem is i really really do not want to

Dear list, dear Max, I a currently working on a report. I'm writing it with OpenOffice.org and odfWeave. I'm working increentally : I write a bit, test (interactively) some ideas, cutting-and-pasting code to the Ooo report when satisfied with it.
