    Looking for sources of unbiased information

    Quick disclosure: I'm a Kerio reseller. But I do not sell anything else you'd need for this project, so I'm a disinterested bystander in that respect. Just wondering two things: you may very well need features that Operator doesn't yet have, but did you actually demo it (I bet dollars to...

    Column doesn't float right in IE

    I give up :-) For now, I've gone to tables. The old css page is at http://aplawrence.com/oldindex.html if anyone has any sudden idea :-) Tony Lawrence Linux/Unix/Mac OS X Resources http://aplawrence.com

    Column doesn't float right in IE

    Yeah, that doesn't turn out so well :-) Should I just start over and rewrite this whole page? Tony Lawrence Linux/Unix/Mac OS X Resources http://aplawrence.com

    Column doesn't float right in IE

    Nope, that doesn't seem to help.. Tony Lawrence Linux/Unix/Mac OS X Resources http://aplawrence.com

    Column doesn't float right in IE

    I've banged my head on this long enough.. http://aplawrence.com/index.html In Firefox, Safari, Opera and everything else I've tried, this page displays as I intend it to: the column that begins with "More articles in..." is to the right of the main page body. Sometimes it's there with IE too...

    Date format for PERL in Windows

    If you are really trying to change the system date, then you need different code for different platforms as noted above. But if you are just trying to work with a date different than the system date, you can use Time::Local to convert mo day year values to epoch seconds. Tony Lawrence...

    Kill a port

    Of course it's allowed. That ndd-set looks very useful; can't think of anything quite like it on other Unixes. I did find it on Solaris, was surprised not to find it in Unixware (Solaris and Unixware are very similar). Good to know it's in HPUX. Tony Lawrence Linux/Unix/Mac OS X Resources...

    Kill a port

    ndd-set seems to be a Solaris only thingie? Tony Lawrence Linux/Unix/Mac OS X Resources http://aplawrence.com

    Large data transfer

    Assuming you don't have duplex mismatches ( see http://aplawrence.com/SCOFAQ/scotec4.html#autonegotiate ), and that this is something you need to do regularly, "rsync" is the way to go; see http://aplawrence.com/Basics/rsync.html. The 5.0.6 does not have rsync, but it's easy to install from...

    Script saving a file / writepermissions

    Although you did not actually say this, I might guess that you are running this from a web server? If so, it's "apache" (or whatever user apache is running as) that needs write permission to the directory and file (and execute perms for the script). Tony Lawrence Linux/Unix/Mac OS X Resources...

    Restore onto new server

    Well, thank you. That document also owes a lot to input from J.P. Radley, Bill Vermillion, Jeff Liebermann and probably many others. I couldn't tell you how many SCO upgrades I've done in the past twenty years or so - probably hundreds. Of course nowadays I'm more apt to be moving someone to...

    C++ or unix shell script for DNS redundancy

    My experience is that ping is often not satisfactory for this use. Ping can work while nothing else does. Since these are nameservers, why not test with "dig" or "host" (either of which can be told to use a specific server - see http://aplawrence.com/Words2005/2005_04_25.html ) ? Tony...

    Linux to Windows IMAP issue

    An IMAP issue? IMAP doesn't send mail. It's possible that you are looking for IMAP authentication before being allowed to send, but that doesn't seem to match your symptoms. You should try (from Linux) a telnet to port 25 of the mail server and see what is going on. Full directions at...

    searching for strings

    If you only want to search files that you can modify, aren't most or perhaps even all of those in your directory? If so, why search starting at "/"? Find has enough options to do this (user, group and perms) but that would be complex and you are also wasting a lot of time searching in places...
