No, not the stuff made from soy beans. Tofu is the the german term for a behaviour most likely found in corporate email. It means “Quote full, add your text on the top”. That’s sort of reversed “AOL” behaviour.
When I started email, I came from a FIDO background (anyone remembers this? BBS and stuff?). Connection time [...]
At work I’m currently developing software which is supposed to run on openSUSE. I need to query the package database at some point which of course does not exist on my ubuntu machine. Here’s a quick setup how to create a fake local RPM database:
echo "%_dbpath /home/user/rpmdb" >> ~/.rpmmacros
mkdir /home/user/rpmdb
rpm -i –nodeps –justdb –force-debian *.rpm

Say you have a binary registry export or dump from Windows and need to have a look at its contents. What do you do? The solution I came up with is:
WINEPREFIX=/tmp/dump regedit *.reg

Quick reference for using postfix as a “shield” server to Exchange to check valid mailboxes against ActiveDirectory (SBS edition):

result_attribute = sAMAccountName
bind=yes
bind_dn = dn of user account

a modified QUdpSocket only leads to IGMPv1 membership reports
a self-written plain old socket multicast client only leads to IGMPv2 joins, but very seldom leaves
Now being at home, I tried both programs and both reliably send IGMPv3 joins [...]
Can someone explain me the following behaviour:
I have the following smart pointer:
class AlsaHwParams
{
public:
AlsaHwParams() : m_params(0)
{ snd_pcm_hw_params_alloca (&m_params); }
~AlsaHwParams()
{ if (m_params != 0) snd_pcm_hw_params_free (m_params); }
operator snd_pcm_hw_params_t*() { return m_params; }
private:
snd_pcm_hw_params_t [...]
I wrote earlier about compiling libgpgme for use with Visual Studio. Forgot to mention that this is an useless effort because the filedescriptor passing does not work and as such you can only encrypt decrypt from or [...]
