Re: [Ilugc] Which Db i need to choose ?
Hi, Either postgresql or mongo. Mongo will be cool! Don't pick something because it is cool. If I get it right, mongo and postgresql address very different needs! But then am not the expert and all I can suggest is understand your problem before looking a solution. Take a shortcut: install Postgres, and start developing. As a wise Software Engineer once said -- Plan on throwing one away. You will, anyhow. Just code a prototype. Your code will be unstructured garbage. Learn from it, throw it away, then start from scratch. +1 Abishek ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
Re: [Ilugc] Programming languages
Hi, Beg to disagree. By having a practical goal, one can learn how to do things practically. Then get inspired by how it worked and dig deeper. But if you've got a hundred interesting, practical problems to solve - then keep doing it. Many times reaching a goal is the ultimate aim. Once the goal is met, the tools and the path taken may seem irrelevant. At that moment, learning ceases to happen. If I have a good enough internet connection, i can google up or look up stackoverflow for references to solve the problem at hand. Learning does not happen! Very few are actually inspired to go beyond the problem they just solved. Ok. I did not attempt to prove a point or disagree with you or others in the thread. Its just a thought I felt a need to share! Abishek ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines

Re: [Ilugc] Alternate GIMP classes instead of PhotoShop
Hi, Even by a long mile I don't think gimp will match Photoshop. What made you think so? What's in PS that's not in GIMP? We use GIMP for all of our graphics. Please state the reasons. While I don't know if I agree with the original claim, I'd just add that adding an effect may be simple point and click in PS while it is a little cumbersome in GIMP. That does not make GIMP inferior, but artists are not geeks (not tech geeks, to be correct.). Wrong. There are no training institutes about how to use Firefox does But what is it that firefox would do that is not already done with other browsers? And when was the last time we did anything out of the ordinary with firefox (or IE or chrome)? But image manipulation, to some degree, is not doing the ordinary alone. Again even the new ones are probably a mix and match of the existing ones. But if they are not straight forward, then they are as good as not there. Problem is yet again the user base. If you asked the community, they'd tell you how to do with python script for GIMP. But how many times are python coders doing image manipulation? Just curious. I could be entirely wrong.

Re: [Ilugc] Alternate GIMP classes instead of PhotoShop
It's not. Its point and click in GIMP. In fact we find GIMP much more easier and faster than Photoshop. There is a huge set of options available under filter. We even use GIMP to create generic animations. hmm, actually I've never used PS and mostly worked with GIMP for my little requirements here and there. Half the time i'd read up PS tutorials and work a little out of the way to figure it out for GIMP. That shapes my opinion. Same with GIMP. What is there than photoshop can do but GIMP can't. If you are a poweruser and know PS, then only you will be able to use full power of GIMP. I repeat we use GIMP for everything. And non of of designers are coder or programmers. I never said GIMP lacked features. I said it is not as obvious as others. Again, how will one become a poweruser if he cannot get past the initial curve? Let us be honest, for most beginners GIMP is a little intimidating. That is not to say PS is more user friendly or intuitive. A simple search ends up returning more PS methods than GIMP. Why don't power users like you add more tutorials onto the web? Enough said, now here are the guides to learn GIMP: http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/ http://www.gimp.org/books/ http://www.graphics-muse.org/artistsguide/ :) I am sure every gimp user knows these links. Anyway, it helps to have it the same thread :) Abishek ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

You can just add an ethernet cable between the PC eth0 and laptops eth0, configure them with custom ip addresses and rsync/scp the files you need. I think that should work most of the time.

On each machine, as root, do the following. machine1 # ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2 machine2 # ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.3 you should be able to ping the machines from one another. Then rsync the folders machine1 # rsync -r machine2:/path/to/files . should do the trick. Again, this is not the only way. I am not sure what GUI options are available.

Re: [Ilugc] why people going for proprietary?
Ha.. No need for such a no more situation.. If Microsoft finds a way to ban all pirated copies of Windows, thats enough. Except a few corporate offices and Windows fans, none will be ready to purchase the original version! Does MS have the guts to do that?? I think many europeans and americans buy their copy of windows. So I want to assume you are talking india (or perhaps south east asia?) Is that the only reason people use windows? MS did a great job of convincing people (and very early on) that windows has the most friendly interface. Most people get started with windows and are not sure if they need to learn another system. Office has it, so I ll use it here also kind of an attitude. Unless you catch the kids very early on (around the time they get used to programming, even a wee bit) and introduce them and train them linux, they'd never have enough reasons to make the switch. That said, if MS decides to crack down, I won't be surprised if people start picking vendor PCs (like dell/lenovo/hp) that come with windows bundled as part of the desktop/laptop!

Re: [Ilugc] why people going for proprietary?
Service and support, yes; but warranty is not given by anyone. Read the EULA carefully. So no accountability! No accountability or warranty is needed. The word is support and service-level-agreements. Your critical project could not go live on the given date due to a internal network/software issue, say. Its impossible for a company to defend themselves from the client saying they are on their own and will handle it within a few hours. Otoh, they just might be able to bail out saying this installation cupped and people from IBM/MS/HP or whoever else is working on it. The client might buy it. RHEL/Novell(are they still around)/Canonical might be able to address this. Corporates would prefer to stay away from having to worry about infrastructure. Unless LUGs and Linux vendors can handle this with the same SLAs the other end of the spectrum is offering (albeit at similar price), they cannot break this barrier.

Re: [Ilugc] Breaking blocked access in my office
I am trying to overcome the blocked access in my office somehow as I think the security restrictions have gone too far to carry on my daily activities. Here is the scenario. I cannot access any email sites, IM sites, entertainment sites from my office. The setup as far as I understood is that all traffic from the local systems are being tunneled through a proxy server. I tried using various methods to access websites IM sites like anonymous proxy servers few other ways. But what I found was that no matter what, I don't seem to be able to access any of the mail/IM sites. Just then I tried Firefox add-on sameplace [xmpp] which was little complicated to set up as it had few dependencies the only thing that works for me now in gtalk. All the other Firefox addons like gtalksidebar, meebo, etc failed. Certainly, they aren’t blocking talk.google.com since any addon trying to connect to gtalk connects to talk.google.com. Seriously, if it blocked the sys admins should have a reason to. The reason is certainly not for us to work around it. If you think they are insane in setting some restrictions, take it up with them. Looking for ways to tunnel only makes your position more complicated. Abishek Goda ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Re: [Ilugc] Breaking blocked access in my office
Hi, Blocking what via ports? Run a security scanner like netcat or nmap or nessus or nikto or hping. and how should you install it? if I know it right, then most corporates give you windows machines with the least privileges. In fact, the few things that work best in these installations are MS Office, MS Outlook and your coding environment. But then, thats all is needed. I am not sure about these tools (i've used them on a linux box at home where I am the admin) on windows, but wouldn't they need administrator rights to actually do port scanning? Just curious. Run your ssh server on the public IP at port 80. And use it to forward all your traffic. Again, you are behind a firewall with NAT. I don't have enough fundas, but can you actually get the reverse-lookup right for the public server to get back correctly? I don't know, so I am trying to understand. One last query, would not an existing IDS installation detect port scanning happening on a certain machine? Would that not put our man in question? He seems to be using his Official ID to mail the list. This leaves me with the feeling that he is not entirely aware of what he is doing. He could meaning only to check his gmail, but then if an IDS detects his login, they are not going to believe him. are they? By IDS I am referring to Instrusion Detection Systems. Btw, I am not sure if they are common in Indian IT space. Abishek ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Re: [ilugc] Column Name display in terminal
Hi, Ahh...good! I don't understand the difficulty in understanding this question. Anyways, let me break it up in to simpler sentences as you've asked for. Is it possible that we make the terminal, by default, display the output column names [like PID MEM etc] when you run a command [and that could be any command]. For example: ls -lh returns an output without the column names. I would want to see if there is a way to display the column names like PERMS, OWNER, GROUP, FILENAME, SIZE etc by default. I would like to believe that bash/shell is a simple means to run commands that do your job. There is absolutely no reason why bash/shell has to understand the outputs or interpret them for you. I just might do iceweasel from bash. how is it supposed to categorize all those gtk warning messages i might be getting? Or even know they are warnings in the first place. I think we should understand what to expect before looking for it. On the other hand, its a better idea to see if the individual commands have such options. I am sure many commands do. Or take their code and edit that portion in. Its probably not worth trying a global wrapper script to interpret all the commands that are already there and will be added. What I still don't get is why would you need bash/shell to do this for you? Abishek Goda ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Re: [Ilugc] Porting linux into a chinese phone?
Hi, Any experiences or pointers? closest i heard of (i never tried this myself!) are these links : http://www.mobileoss.net/home/?p=55 http://www.mobileoss.net/home/?p=132 http://www.mobileoss.net/home/?p=105 They might or not work. the posts use the sdcard to hold the linux and boot from in there.

Re: [Ilugc] big endian and little endian issues from Solaris to Linux
Hi, I have c/C++ code in Solaris/AIX/HP-UX which is for big endian arch . Now i am moving the c/C++ code to Little endian Linux X86 , i would like to know what are issues need to be addressed when moving from big endian to little endian . Not too sure, but recompiling should handle this automatically. Unless of course, there is code that assumes big-endian and optimizes something.
