Hello, I''m using: Ruby 1.8.6, Rails 1.2.3, ferret 0.11.4, acts_as_ferret from svn stable. I''ve had quite a day wrestling with trying to remove the use of stopwords.

Hi, I''ve had one of my application broken this morning (French time) with this error : NoMethodError (undefined method `status_id='' for #<Facebooker::User::Status:0x2ad52d1c8478 @message={}, @time="0">): It appear that Facebook API had change in the status : a status_id node is new : <user> <uid>785637999</uid>

Puppet custom functions and user permissions I am busy writing a custom function to automatically add OSSEC agents to a OSSEC server after installation.

No matter how many other groups the puppet user has been added to in /etc/ group, when puppetmasterd runs the custom function the effective/real user

Recently installed 1.4.5, and still unfortunate to find out that the 'c' option in AgentMonitorOutgoing() still doesn't work ('c' - change the CDR so that the source of the call is 'Agent/agent_id').
