Hi Ram,
There is something like httrack which is extensively a website
downloading and mirroring tool. The webhttrack (web)interface  is
really simple to use.

Re: [ilugd] Removing ^M from text files in vi

2006-01-05 Thread Arshad Siddiqui
Hi,

bit late in replying...but hope this might as well help.
We do it this way...

use the command from the top level to remove the ctrl char -
find . -name *.[c,h] -exec perl -pi -e 's/\cM//g' {} \;

Square Bracket contains [Type of files] so modify it as per your need.

 Hi,

 I used Anjuta on Ubuntu 5.10 to write my code, committed it to the CVS
 at Novell Forge. But when i try to download the code-tarball from the
 CVS, i'm getting strange ^M characters at the end of every line in all
 files.

 Though i can remove them by deleting them one-by-ne, but this is
 getting very annoying.

 What can be the possible reason for this  how can i stop this from
 happening  how to get back my code without ^M?

[ilugd] COMMENT: Google may not go Simputer way

2006-01-05 Thread Frederick Noronha (FN)
From HINDUSTAN TIMES
January 5, 2006

GOOGLE MAY NOT GO SIMPUTER WAY

Venkatesh Ganesh
Mumbai, January 4

GOOGLE's ENTRY into the sub-Rs 10,000 PC market has rattled the cage of
existing players. But the search-engine giant's entry into the hardware
sector in India with a thin-client model (a PC with no hard disk and
computing) may not be a walkover.

HT was the first to report on December 15, 2005 about the Google's plans
to enter the Indian market with thin-client model.

Early entrants like the Simputer and other low-cost PCs are being still
viewed skeptically. Globally too, thin-clients have managed to make only
small inroads.

But the real fight is for a different space. Google appears to be
looking to dethrone Microsoft from its desktop throne.

Thin clients have been viewed in a cautious manner primarily due to the
price factor. But with Google entering the fray at such an attractive
price point, things might change, says Nitin Mukadam, an e-commerce
consultant.

The advantage with thin clients is that the storage happens in a central
server. For example, all data and applications (like word processors,
spreadsheets, etc) are hosted in a central server. This solves a lot of
problems right from storage to viruses.

Also, with bandwidth prices coming down, the commercial viability of a
thin-client device is now more feasible. Then, therere are issues with
regards to Random Access Memory (RAM) that can run with even small
memory space.

Industry analysts opine that Google has a rough road ahead. Delivering
complete functionality in a thin-client is most challenging, Sameer
Kochhar CEO of Skotch told the Hindustan Times.

Translated, it would imply that since Windows is the pre-dominant
operating system, operating on non-Windows system would take some
getting used to (Google would bundle Linux-based applications).

Sanjeev Sharma, managing director, Fujusan Technologies, an Indian
representative of Fujitsu, the Japanese IT and communication solution
provider, feels that the acceptance of a device of this kind will be
predominantly in the small office-home office.(ENDS)

Re: [ilugd] COMMENT: Google may not go Simputer way

2006-01-05 Thread Raj shekhar
in infinite wisdom Frederick Noronha (FN) spoke thus on 01/05/06 19:35:

 Early entrants like the Simputer and other low-cost PCs are being still
 viewed skeptically. Globally too, thin-clients have managed to make only
 small inroads.

Mobilis, that was launched by the makers of simputer, was promising and 
I called the company to find more about it.  The guy took my email id 
and never got back. If you check their website, it is woefully lacking 
in details, however there are a ton of 'press coverage'.  From what I 
can see, they have promised a lot, but delivered too little.

*If* mobilis had  delivered as much as it promised (and on time), I can 
see a good use for it (at least for myself).  Since most of my work is 
done from emacs, I could use it as portable emacs.  Alas! Real life 
sucks! :-)

Maybe we should invite the author to one of Sudev Sir's LTSP demo's. I'm
really not sure what he means by complete functionality is most
challenging.

Perhaps the fact that a thin client needs something to
*connect* to. 

Consider using existing capped web connections to do
data processing of all sorts - the minute you pay for
your last MB, you shut down your machine? Wow, awesome
solution - no viruses, no trojans and of course, no
productivity. But thats not a consideration AT ALL, is
it?

Gimme a break. Thin clients will remain a no-no till
India sees better connectivity. But that shouldn't
stop people from offering web based services which
take a fraction of the bandwidth a thin client would.
After all, you do your own processing and only
transmit/receive small amounts of data.

[ilugd] Linux Implementation at Om Logistics

2006-01-05 Thread (Sanjay Goel)
Dear Friends,

A team from Intel had visited Om Logistics a few months back and studied
the IT Set-Up in our organisation.  They have documented there exercise
in the form of the case study. Case study can be downloaded from 

http://omsanchar.omlogistics.co.in/intel.pdf


CTO-Forum magazine also published an article on our Linux Implementation
in there Oct-2005 issue. The same can be downloaded from

Hey,

--- Abhay Kedia [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 Would thin clients work only over internet? I had an
 idea that if you make a 
 Desktop PC with decent hardware then you can connect
 3-4 (or more) thin 
 clients to help a SOHO bring down the costs of
 buying new hardware and 
 maintaining individual systems. 

For one, thin clients have traditionally worked over a
local network, but with increasing bandwidth and
connection speeds, they can be made to work over the
internet too. Your idea is indeed correct - but how
many SOHOs actually have networked offices? Not too
many. 

 Also if you have
 more than one person using 
 PC at your place then wouldn't these thin clients
 work as desktops for each 
 one of them as well? Do I have some wrong info or am
 I thinking on entirely 
 different wavelength?

Well, it would depend on what the computer's being
used for. IF your little sister wants to play 'The
Sims' on a home computer, no way she's going to use a
Thin client. If all you have to do is word processing
and some spreadsheets, then yes, thin clients are a
good option. And if we talk specifically about home
users, they would much rather buy fully featured PCs
because of the wide variety of uses each would have.
Thats my take on it anyway - I'm sure others might
feel differently.
