Classic case of resetting the power manager, by the sounds of it.

The passwd file is up to date on my apple... contains the user accounts as well as the various system accounts. But yeah, globbing the directory is the better way, the more I think about it. In theory, you're *only* going to get user accounts and the shared stuff. I'm a C# & Java programmer...

I can replace the cable and *most likely* repair anything wrong with the AC end of it (if there's anything wrong) for you, if you like.

There ya go! Even better. (not a fan of perl, but it was a good practice for me since I'm being forced to use the cryptic piece of crap)

You'll need a small script. Run it as root. Have it read thru' the passwd file, extract the username, dump that into a command string to execute. In perl, it would look *something* like: Another option, other than reading the passwd file is to Glob the /Users directory to get the...

A: Life, the Universe and Everything. Q: Who else has geeked out trivia? (that Manx one was a good one!!)

I had a crush (way back) on her sister. Sister invited me over. Met the future wife. The rest is history.

Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. The lime green one is just so gay. Get the pink one like me!! :)

A: Zeddicus Zul Zorander, Grandfather of Richard Rahl, aka Richard Cypher. Q: What geeked out trivia do you know? (grins)

Nope. Can't do it like that. For that type of partial stuff, use HttpXmlResponse model or some javascript or something along those lines.

The Windows FTP client doesn't support passive connections, if that's a consideration.

*nods* Windows machines on the same network almost always have a naming service in addition to DNS... usually it's discovered by the browsing service. Great for windows-only networks on the same net/subnet, etc. However, Windows is the only OS that natively supports and participates. You'll...

I would use images completely declared in CSS so that text-only and screen readers can simply disable/ignore styles... and other clients who are style-switching aware can ignore them at will. I'm a huge fan of using divs and spans with classes and IDs and doing the majority of the formatting...

Not to be a jerk, but wouldn't a little bit of upfront research into what would work with your chosen platform and OS have saved you significant time and money?

Protocol standards, first. Once everyone is using a single protocol, you'll see a (more or less) standardized feature set settling into the various apps on various platforms. In addition, more and more Windows programmers are learning the joy and zen of platform independent development, and with...

This is one of those issues where, if you can afford a few bucks, grab an old computer of *any* type to run as a server to handle those kinds of full-time tasks. I'm fortunate in that I'm in the computer biz and come across old-machine deals and parts all the time. I've got two servers; one...

It should take all of 18 seconds to write one. One form and a depository for the email addresses you collect. I'll do one up for you. Is it ASP.NET or traditional ASP ? Is it running in Apache or in IIS? Give me as many specifics as you can so I can ensure it's a good fit.

I'm on an iBook 1.33 with 1.25 GB RAM and everything... including Virtual PC runs fine. VPC gets a little laggy when I'm running big builds and such, but I've got the virtual machine's memory capped at 256. I think you either have: 1) a bum unit 2) some really poor installations or 3) a user...

Mine's bundled with phone and tv. I think the break out would be $29/mo. It's so-so quality cable internet.
