My question is whether there''s a more idiomatic rails way of structuring this query or of redoing the underlying models. First, the ugly find_by_sql code, which is the method to generate an atom feed: def atom items_per_feed = 15 sql_query = "SELECT activities.*, users.real_name AS real_name, accounts.last_scraped_at AS last_scraped_at,

I've got a stupid startup problem with samba under RedHat 5.0. Whenever I restart the system (I moved the server yesterday, so it got a reboot) samba doesn't startup. Looking at the /etc/rc.d/rc3.d directory shows there there is no link from there to /etc/init.d/smb. I put such a link in at some point in the past (after the LAST reboot, as I remember), and it has now vanished. This is

That smbpasswd doesn't obey the smb passwd file option in the smb.conf file? I've got the pre-compiled binaries for RedHat, version 1.19.8p10 and I'm just shifting from security = share to security = user. I tried to move the password file from /etc to /etc/samba, so that it would be in a root-only directory (as recommended by encryption.txt) and I've just found out that smbpasswd,

I'm setting up faxing from our server using mgetty+sendfax, and the setup from http://relay.boerde.de:82/~horstf/ Basically, what this does is collect the print job normally via samba print services, then asks the user what number to fax it to. The asking is done by a program run on the user's system at startup called 'responder'. I have installed the print drivers on to the

Hello again, folks! There is one thing I neglected to mention on the Solaris->NT connection issue I posted earlier today, and which I believe is the source of the problem. Two days ago, I "inherited" a NT server which I now use as my workstation. I physically moved that NT server from one place to the other (i.e., unplugging all the cabling -- power, Ethernet, etc.) so that I can

I'm getting some odd behaviour from rsync - a lockup when doing local copies. I tried to search the list archives, but I only came up with a couple of hits from 2001 indicating folks thought this (or a similar issue) was fixed. Situation: (OS is RedHat 7.2, Rsync rpm 2.4.6-5 and 2.5.5-1 exhibit the same behaviour) rsync is copying on the same machine (local copy). The destination is NOT a

is turned on. Can anybody kind to confirm with me? Our network is using a mix of Win2k server, Win2k Pro, Win98, Win95 and WinMe machines, where the Win2k server is the domain controller and terminal service applications server and the Samba is a member fileserver of the domain. All workstations logon and mount the samba file services. We'd like to check if the problem could be solved by

\\Pettit Connect As: Password: On the server side, I didn't get far because the domain name come up NULL so it failed on that test. Below are two logs log98.txt and log2000.txt that show full debug info. I might just have a stupid configuration or installation mistakes. I am sure that my basic configuration must work since it is a very typical setup. Any help will be highly appreciated
