Amarok.

mfsymlink allows for unix style symlinks on mounted SMB volumes. It is very useful for allowing unix style symlinks for Windows and Mac clients on the network. /etc/fstab: //SMBSERVER/SMBSHARE /MOUNTDIR cifs uid=$usernameOR$uid,gid=$groupnameOR$gid,credentials=/home/$USER/.credentials 0 0 command l...

Some of the themes aren't really uniform, I'd like to get us down to 5 adding new ones and removing other ones but people are using some of the ones that do not work so they remain. Looks like we found another one not in compliance.

Augie77 You need to have a minimum of 4 servers to have your ntpsec (right, ntpsec right?) running properly, else the time is not valid for any machine that you are serving else your systems clock sans offset or reference clock will eventually drift. maxclock needs to be an odd number +3 or +5 from...

Very good question! Unfortunately it is a bit complicated as it really depends on your discipline or area of focus. The CompTIA Linux+ is a good start and gives you a good ideal of how to work on and around systems, but again your focus is going to be what really guides your process. Lightweight Dir...

F-droid.org has it's own forums, I think you get better answers there. The OP is not that technical of a post that they need to be re-directed elsewhere. I use Android and from our last 'Which Mobile Vendor device do you use?' Survey it seems we have a fair amount of Android users, it can be surmis...

Sometimes we have old devices or net appliances that new standards have phased out, the problem is the devices are still usable somewhere or you need to get into one. This happens mostly with outdated systems that use ssh/sftp. The error is the clue: Sun Mar 17 00:29:24) {donald}@[computers.org] {~}...

Your OP was v...

Just curious with a few questions. Is it worth it? With the size and introduction of large scale and professional entrepreneurs with DataCenter sized infrastructure has the time to mine already passed? Is this still something someone could do without dedicated hardware? If you are running such a set...

We do Generals and then Ancient cities. It is a lot of fun. Backends Miltiades = General Hannibal = General Attila = General Nevsky = General Alexander Nevsky Frontends Athena = City Miltiades was from Rome = City Hannibal conquered Hun = Attila the Hun Novgorod = Nevsky was the prince of. Developme...

lol you guys ignore the AI part, look at the structure. :D The syntax is surprisingly correct for the task you asked of it. A nuance here or there from experience would tune a bit better but the commands and order are 'correct'. In time an AI can perform to better scale some of these tasks that seem...

I have this model. I does not work.

To ease the burden here, if you have an email account serviced by one of the above, register your account and send an email to the forum. We can use that manner to validate some account activation. Again: Register 1st, wait for the email, if it is not received using the email address you used to reg...
