Great concept, I still remember the coding guidelines that we had to follow as a developer for embedded system (local tel. switching system) in a large MNC, w/o which your code would fail code inspection and could not be submitted for integration; to name a few (a) initialization of variables (especially pointers - C was the lang.) , (b) return error codes, (c) check error codes. For testing, cases were required to test boundary value conditions besides the "sunny" day scenarios. -- Arun Khan ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

[Ilugc] what is LAMP?
As per the article, http://onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2001/01/25/lamp.html the author says "Of course, there are plenty of excellent open source variants for any of the pieces of LAMP. Let the L stand for Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and Darwin/Mac OS X, all of which are open source operating systems and all but the latter have open source GUI layers. Let the M stand for MySQL and PostGreSQL. Let the P stand for PHP, Perl, Python, and Ruby." It is the author assumption. its not what every one took it. As per Wiki, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAMP_%28software_bundle%29 LAMP represents Linux (any flavour), Apache HTTP, MySQL, Perp / PHP / Python (may be ) If wiki is not correct, please read this from IBM research http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/edu/wa-dw-wa-lamp-i.html To keep it simple for the beginners, LAMP should represent as Linux, Apache web server, MySQL. PHP / Perl may be for advanced users, it can be a platform or stack or what ever. but one should remember Linux is not OS. its just a Kernel. In that case, LAMP abbreviation is not correct. ps: Starting a different thread on what is LAMP. - balachandar muruganantham உலகம்.net - இலவச தமிழ் வலைப்பதிவுச் சேவை - http://ulagam.net எனது தமிழ் பக்கங்கள் - http://www.balachandar.net/pakkangal Beyond Work - http://beyondwork.wordpress.com/ ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

[Ilugc] Beautiful way to upload a file using curl and FTP
$ curl -T - ftp://ftpserver.somewhere.org/path/to/file.txt Press enter or Ctrl-D or Ctrl-C The file gets uploaded from stdin.

In your setup, it is best to use your Email Service Provider's SMTP server as the "outgoing" host. Otherwise, you will be constantly fighting RBL list providers to unblock your IP. Furthermore, assuming that your IP is not blocked, some sites like AOL (IIRC) will not accept emails unless the MX record and PTR record (for the MX host) match. You have not mentioned which program you are using for your MTA (sendmail, qmail, postfix, exim to name a few).Each of them can be configured to send outgoing message via "smart smtp host" which would be your providers SMTP host. Make sure your provider will allow relay before attempting the changes in your settings o/w you will going around in a circle.
