Dear R user, I asked for packages which should be mentioned in a ecological related presentation of R and would like to summarize the replies. First of all E. Paradis pointed out, that he would prefer to see R presented in a different way, please read his whole reply https:// www.stat.math.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2003-December/041951.html. Packages which

Hello, at this time we're using s. 2.2.8a (running on SuSE-Linux StandardServer 8 - Kernel 2.4.21) as fileserver for our terminal server environment. We ran into the 128 connections per client limitation and had to modify the MAX_CONNECTIONS-parameter in smbd/conn.c. Now we're planning the migration from s. 2.2.8a to s. 3.0.1. Is the modification in smbd/conn.c still necessary, when using

We're using s. 2.2.8a in conjunction with a win2k dc. For uid/gid-mapping we use winbindd. Now we plan the migration to samba 3. We have about 100 Users and i don't want to rebuild the idmaps by hand. Is it possible to move the winbindd_idmap.tdb to the ldap idmap backend? -- +++ GMX - die erste Adresse f?r Mail, Message, More +++ Neu: Preissenkung f?r MMS und FreeMMS!

Dear R-user, I already received quite a lot of replies to this mail and like to do a preliminary sum up. A few were sceptical about the use of such a beginner mailing list. The arguments were that people starting with R will only stay subscribed for a short time until they reached the R-help "level" and therefore only beginner will teach beginner how to use R. But as far

Hi I've compiled Tinc 1.0.2 from source but I'm having trouble. Not only am I having disconnections all the time (could be a network issue however) but even worse, Tinc is ignoring my MaxTimeout = 60 and is waiting longer and longer and longer (logfile shows it at 120 seconds). Is this a bug or have i misconfigured anything? best regards Marco Amrein Dec 5 11:25:12 frank

Hello, I computed acf() and have an array as output. now I would like to have only one matrix or data frame (not yet familiar with the nomenclature) extracted from this array. or even only the first row of each matrix. the first part of my data "test" is called $acf ,1 , , 1 , , 2 1, , ... ... 2, , .. ... I tried several names but nothing wants to work, I only

hello I read "Practical Time Series" (Gareth Janacek; 2001) and they presented e.g the smoothing functions msmooth(x,k) or the bivariate function crosscorr(x,y,k), but both didn't work on my machine. I only load the ts library, is another library necessary or did this function change since 2001? Is there a more recent and detailed manual for ts? thanks, cheers Martin -- Martin

Hello, I have two dataframes, one with a time series of variables and another one with biological data of each plot. the column names correspond to each other plot1 plot 2....... 1983 ... .... 1984 ... .... ... and plot 1 plot2 1 ... ... 2 is it somehow possible to use acf() with two data frames and get a p values for the whole correaltion of these

Hello R user, I downloaded grasper_0.3-2.tar.gz and installed it as described. $ su $ R CMD INSTALL grasper_0.3-2.tar.gz $ R that seems to work, but > grasp.GUI() doesn't work. I read the note, that graspeR need mgcv (downloaded), MASS, modreg and tcktk . I haven't found the last 3 packetages in the Suse 8.1 contrib list. Where can I find them? Or what could be the problem? thanks in

Hello, I get the following prompt when tring to compute rlm: > x<-rlm(core.e, na.action=na.omit) >Error in qr(x) : NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 1) I checked with is.finite and is.infinite but in both cases i get FALSE and my missing values are substituted by NA. what does this error prompt mean and how do I solve it? thanks in advance, cheers Martin -- Martin

I am trying to code a steepest ascent algorithm to optimize parameters used in a survivor function type problem. My unknown parameters (alpha, Beta0, and Beta1) for which I have been able to optimize using Newton's method. I keep getting an error because my alpha becomes negative and I can't calculate the likelihood. Here is my log likelihood I am optimizing (in LaTex): l=\sum _{ i=1 }^{

Hy there, I have a problem with Samba 2.2.5 (on AIX 4.3) concerning a printer share. I set up a few printer share which work well. Now I want to restrict the access to one of them. In order to achieve this I put in a hosts deny=all hosts allow=<IP-Adresses of hosts, which should be allowed to print> in the corresponding printer-share-section. What happens is this: non

I'd like to see a feature of the commercial ssh in openssh: AllowHosts xxx.yyy.xxx.yyy *.domain.net DenyHosts xxx.yyy.xxx.* name.domain.net This allows or denies connects from certain machines (including wildcard matching). Is there any chance for this feature to be included? No, we don't want to use tcp-wrapper for this. Bye.

Dear all, I'm trying to fit a pure additive model of the following formula : fit <- gam(y~x1+te(x2, x3, bs="cr")) ,with the smoothing parameter estimation method "magic"(default). Regarding this, I have two questions : Question 1 : In some cases the value of "mgcv.conv$fully.converged" becomes "FALSE", which tells me that the method stopped with a

Hi, we use a current Debian etch distribution as basis for our servers, which are running within a vmware server environment. Our current configuration consists of a dovecot server with imap enabled and a ldap based authentication. Mails are stored using the Maildir format on a central nfs store. We do not use any virtual mailboxes. Since upgrading from dovecot version 1.0.rc15 (debian

Hi, I was hoping to get some advice on how to derive estimates of slopes from four parameter logistic models fit with SSfpl. I fit the model using: model<-nls(temp~SSfpl(time,a,b,c,d)) summary(model) I am interested in the values of the lower and upper asymptotes (parameters a and b), but also in the gradient of the line at the inflection point (c) which I assume tells me my rate of

Hi, I built and installed R-base-1.7.0 on SuSE 8.2 without any problems, but the interactive R interpreter, has problems with cursor movement: > ls() character(0) > ^[[A^[[B^[[D^[[C^[[A^[[D^[[C^[[B^[[D^[[A These ugly characters are produced by the arrow keys. Does anyone know how to fix that problem? Ciao Sebastian

Hi, I have a dataset of dimensions 50 x 15000, and tried to use princomp or prcomp on this dataset with 15000 columns as variables, but it seems that the 2 functions can;t handle this large number of columns, anyone has nay suggestions to get around this? Thanks --------------------------------- [[alternate HTML version deleted]]

Dear all, I have the following problem: I have written a function genereating to plots, eg myfunction <- (data, some.parameters) { #some calculations etc . par (mfrow=c(1,2)) plot1(......) plot2(.....) } which works fine. But for analysing several variants, I tried a slope, eg: par (mfrow=c(5,5)) for ( i in 1:10) { myfunction(data, i) } Off

Hi All, Is the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm available in R. This method combines the steepest descent algorithm and Newton's method.
