One of my clients commissioned me to create a new NAS and move all the contents of the shared folders to the NAS.
All done with the wonderful help of FreeNAS (I suggest you read John Simmons' articles on FreeNAS).
I figured the easiest thing for me to do was to initiate the copy from the FreeNAS console.... |

After doing things the manual, brute force way, you will be able to truly appreciate the elegance of HERE documents. If you wanted to create a file with a few lines of text in them, you would redirect the echo command to it. E.g.... |

I talked about xmemo as possible ipmsg alternative for Linux. Unfortunately I found it very much inferior to ipmsg. IPMSG is a messaging client for Windows which also is able to do super-fast file and directory transfer. Once you have got used to ipmsg, it is hard to live without. Fortunately I found a good alternative to ipmsg for Linux.... |

Cross-browser and cross-platform testing is a bane as well as a requirement for web applications. Consider Internet Explorer on Windows. There are two major version 6 & 7, not to mention still used 5.5. You need to either use different machines or multi-boot machines or use hacks to run them simultaneously or virtualization software like VMWare; not of them are really easy to setup and use for common web developer. Then you have Opera & Firefox (we develop in Firefox so it gets tested first in o... |

In this article, I am going to describe the process of writing and building of a simple driver-module for Linux OS. Meanwhile, I will touch upon the following questions:

* The work with character devices
* The work with the “user level” memory from the kernel
The article concerns the Linux kernel version 2.6.32 because other kernel versions can have the modified API, which is used in examples or in the build system.... |

I recently needed to be able to generate a Morse code audio file based on input text. After a few quick searches, I wasn't able to find anything that suited my needs, so I decided to write a generator myself. The result, CodeGen, is presented here. For my purposes, I needed to access the Morse code audio over the web, so I decided to use PHP as the main programming language. The above screen shot shows web page that starts the Morse code generation. The zip-file contains the web page to submit t... |

The development was done in a system with the Ubuntu Linux distribution installed, with later porting and a little testing in Windows 2003 with Visual Studio Express 2008.... |

Darwin Streaming Server is Apple's open source streaming server for the internet. This article will get you started with it, and if you choose to, take you to a certain depth regarding how to tinker with its code to add what you need. It has a very well supported modular architecture, which means you can add one or more custom module(s) - just dropping the binary in a certain folder is sufficient for the server to pick it up and use it. That's what I call plug an play. This is very useful if you... |

Since we had discussed the Two ways to Optimize your RSS feed , we had been angling for some supercool RSS feed Readers, news reader or aggregator. People asked us about the best RSS reader that could bring in all the news headlines, blogs, vlogs and such stuffs to their system. Not all of them were using Windows. It might require many extra libraries to get them on Linux, same for Mac OS X. So I had to look for the top ones that could do with Linux and Mac OS X as well. Now that RSS feed have c... |

Linux colorization of terminal output is very straining to the eye even for normal people and absolutely meaningless for color-blinds. I find it irritating as it makes it really hard to see, especially with the bad choice of colors like deep-blue on black. It you are in the same boat read on.... |

We often come across a lot of inquires on Linux systems. One of the most commonly asked questions is how to find the hardware specs /details on Linux. Well, Linux is an intricate system and require some simplification. There are several tools for deriving hard disk specification in Linux. We would like to suggest you hdparm command that can be executed without much fuss. It offers a command line interface to various hard disk ioctls supported by the Linux ATA/IDE device driver subsystem. It prov... |

As a part of monitoring Linux system you often need to know about the currently running processes in Linux systems. Once you know the process running on the Linux system you can kill the process that are slowing down your system. Again, information about system processes makes it imperative to kill the processes that make the system unstable. Knowing the server and running processes in the system is important. The information would allow you to shut down some of the processes.... |

To monitor CPU temperature in Linux you will need to install lm_sensors package and then install gnome-applet-sensors (assuming you are using gnome) to get a nice graphical display. The devil is in the details. The shipped lm_sensors doesn't work on Fedora Core 6 with 2.6 kernels. It also doesn't support core 2 duo.... |

Historically, moving from a Linux mail system- such as Postfix/Dovecot -to a Windows mail system- such as Smartermail -was not a seamless process. Mail formats are so largely different that it is next to impossible to copy mail over. Users were best suited to POP3 all mail off the Postfix server and then connect to the Smartermail server to achieve a complete migration. But how useful is this when you have possibly 1GB of mail? Or is this scalable if you have a company with many non-technical us... |

I think that the debate “C vs C++” will end when the two langages died, and each one have its advantages and inconvenients, the choice of one instead of another depends on the application context.
Recently i read a famous linus torvalds opinion about C++, where he wrote:
“C++ is a horrible language. It’s made more horrible by the fact that a lot of substandard programmers use it, to the point where it’s much much easier to generate total and utter crap with it. Quite frankly, even ... |
