Hi there, A little while ago we launched Pin in the Map (http://pininthemap.com), a rails application which allows you to easily mark a spot on a map, attach some text to it, and get a simple link to pass around. It''s basically tinyurl for maps. It''s proved useful for organising after-work drinks, meetings, weddings plus a whole variety of other things. http://pininthemap.com.

Hi all, I''m chewing through writing some functional tests for an app at the moment, and it occurs to me that open_session could be used to help write single-controller tests as well as the integration ones. Used as described here[1]; it''s an extremely useful idiom. Any thoughts? Should it be moved, or generally made available, or am I missing the point here? Regards Chris [1]

I really would like to know how people are using the Story and Example runner to write their software.It would be great to get some direction on it, because I think I''m missing some points. Taking the outside-in approach in thought: At first we write a high-level customer-facing story, this story fails. Then we start using mocks at object level to use them as a design tool, and so we

I've set up public/private key authentication between a Solaris 9 system running SSH Version Sun_SSH_1.0, protocol versions 1.5/2.0. and a Soalris 8 system running OpenSSH_3.8p1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0.9.7d 17 Mar 2004 Cannot get remote command fuser to work (although other commands ok) I've got ssh and sftp and scp finally to work, but I am left with one problem, I can use

Hi, I''m new to Rails and Ruby and can''t access methods/columns from an ActiveRecord object that is a "piggy-back" row as described by David here: http://www.loudthinking.com/arc/000235.html Via Console I can create the piggyback object but reading attributes gives "TypeError: cannot convert String into Integer" (this is in Console and the browser).

Hi, I use Sarge's dovecot for a pop3 mail collection server. IMAP is not used at all. It works well, but I would like to know why one of the accounts also keeps a copy of all e-mail copies in the cur/ folder? Thanks a lot, Wally -- Wally Winchester wally_winchester at fastmail.fm -- http://www.fastmail.fm - The way an email service should be

Dear All, I am attempting to set up Samba 1.9.18p8 on a Sun E450 running Solaris 2.6. The Sun is configured as a NIS master serving a number of other Unix machines. It is our primary development platform acting as a NIS client and also has auto mounted home directories for users. Samba has been built using GCC 2.8.1 with the following options set: FLAGSM = -DSUNOS5 -DSHADOW_PWD -DAUTOMOUNT

I just upgraded to 2.10.1 on a WinXPSP2 machine. When I type help.start() R attempts to open a browser session at http://127.0.0.1:27594/doc/html/index.html using my default browser (Firefox 3.6) and is unable to connect. If I then open the same page using IE 8, it works just fine. How do I fix/change R so that it works with Firefox? Thanks Bill William J. Raynor, Jr. Ph.D. Technical Leader III

Hi, I'm running samba 2.2.3a-12.3 on Debian Linux (i686). The network is 100Mbit switched and I can ftp data off the server at 9Mb/sec. If I use either the Finder GUI under Mac OS X or mount manually via Terminal, and then try to copy a file I get less than 64k/sec! I don't ever remember having much better speeds than this while using the various versions of Mac OS X. Windows

Hello, I am a relatively new user of Xen virtualization, so you''ll have to forgive the simplistic nature of my question. I have a Dell R410 poweredge server (dual quad core CPUs + 32gb ram). I plan on utilizing this server with Xen. The ''dilemma'' I am having is whether or not to replace the 2x 500gb 7.2K RPM drives that came with the server with faster 300gb

I need some help getting a system running for one of my company's plants. I am running AsteriskNow 1.7 with Asterisk 1.6.2.10 and FreePBX 2.8.0.2. My D-Channel keeps bouncing. The telecom tech told me he thought that I might be using the wrong sync source, and I think I might have been, but I changed DAHDI system.conf to "span=1,1,0,ESF,B8ZS" (from

Hi folks I have more than 12 years experience with UNIX system administration, but I am too stupid for programming. My only programming experience is shell scripting. I tried to learn Java, but don't understand it because it is too complicated for my limited brainpower. What programming language should I learn? A friend said that C-Sharp (Mono) is very simple. Is this true? cheers Sven

Hi all, We are organising another open source search social evening (OSSSE?) in London on Tuesday the 12th of January. The plan is to get together and chat about search technology, from Lucene to Solr, Hadoop, Mahout, Xapian, Ferret and the like - bringing together people from across the field to discuss ideas and ask questions over a quiet drink. We've also created a group on Meetup.com

I need to show a different background color depending on the type of comment posted. The type of comment is determined from a drop-down selection. I figured the simplest way would be to do something like I have below, but I can''t seem to get it to work: <tr <%= puts ''"style = "background: red;"'' if comment.comment_type == ''Hiring
