In the same vein I use Dropbox for this. Dropbox has an option that will automatically transfer/backup any pictures you take on the phone. When I'm at home on WiFi I can take a picture of a receipt and it'll be on my computer before I sit back down. I haven't plugged a phone in for ages.

Re: [CentOS] Open source tool like CPanel
Any could suggest open source tool like CPanel that could do the following? Try BlueOnyx - http://www.blueonyx.it/ It started off as Cobalt (which was bought and destroyed by Sun Microsystems), it then went open source, turned into BlueQuartz and then turned into BlueOnyx. As such it's actually a very strong product that is well maintained. Dan ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] Resizing a fat filesystem on a USB partition
AFAIK, there is no way to resize any FAT partition. You have to delete both partitions and then create a new one. I thought the CD installer came with a utility to resize FAT partitions (albeit in MS DOS)? And this isn't possible in CentOS it self? :-/ Have you looked at the gparted LiveCD? If parted doesn't work I guess gparted won't either :-/ This is a USB drive so it's not a problem unmounting it and playing around with it. Shame it can't be done. I thought I was finally getting somewhere with that. Thanks again Dan ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] Resizing a fat filesystem on a USB partition
Hi All, I feel this is the most simple question but I am currently going around and round in circles and searches keep bringing me up Windows tools!! :-( I have a 512MB USB drive that has a 12MB FAT16 partition on it. How can I resize this 12MB partition to grow and fill the whole 512MB drive? Just in case I am being stupid, here is what I am doing... :-) I would like a quick USB drive that a machine can boot from but will then load and run some custom tools we have. I have done a... dd if=/mirrors/centos/5/os/i386/images/diskboot.img of=/dev/sda ... which gives the 12MB partition but now I want to grow it so I can then add my own apps. Thank you very much in advance Regards, Dan ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] Resizing a fat filesystem on a USB partition
Look for gnu parted. There are a couple of live cds out there with it, like Parted Magic and others. Parted can resize fat and ntfs file systems among others. Unfortunately `parted` doesn't work with this setup where the partition size is different to the filesystem size and throws up lots of errors. I even tried downloading the latest version of parted but still no go :-/ Dan ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] Using HTTP proxy for yum
Is there a way to use an HTTP proxy (with a user/pass) with yum? Or at least a way to pass a user/pass through yum? I have a situation with a CentOS server behind a web filter appliance. Add the following to /etc/wgetrc http_proxy = http://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080/ ftp_proxy = http://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080/ Since when does yum read wgetrc? I believe yum uses wget (or libraries) and wget reads wgetrc, I picked this up from the yum mailing list and it works too! :-) Dan ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] Force run of quotacheck at boot
Hi All, I think I have managed to corrupt my quota files so I need to run `quotacheck` but that needs the partition to have quotas off or be unmounted which isn't ideal for a production system :-p I was trying to find a way to force the system to do a full `quotacheck -cvuga` on a reboot but on looking in rc.sysinit it seems it will only force a quotacheck on boot when fsck finds problems with the disk. Anyone know of a way to force this (touch a file etc.)? Thank you in advance Dan ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Which CentOS? Sorry, CentOS 4.x In /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit of CentOS 5 it seems to check for a file /forcequotacheck Danm, looks like that isn't in 4 :-( Thank you for your help Dan ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Add the following to /etc/wgetrc http_proxy = http://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080/ ftp_proxy = http://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080/ ... the web filter will need to be able to do http byte-range requests though. The proxy we have at work can't, yum should be able to deal without but can't so I have to rsync each of the repositories down locally and run yum from them.
