I only spoke to her on the phone once... and she was so clever that I felt
like I should hand my two degrees back.

She was so sweet about it, though.

My condolences.

  Hi Everyone,
 
 
 
  I'm not sure if you're aware but Kym Kovan, a long time cfaussie
 member and
  Coldfusion stalwart passed away recently from motor neurone disease.
 
 
 
  Kym was one of the gurus when I started CF back in 1998, and I had the
  pleasure of having her as part of my development team over the past
 couple
  of years.
 
 
 
  It's a sad loss for the Coldfusion community.
 
 
 
  Regards,
 
  Adam

[cfaussie] Re: Coldfusion Server problems

2006-09-12 Thread David Pietersen
If a file somewhere is locked, or some other weirdness related to the loss of power is occurring, by shutting down the services then rebooting you might give Windows a chance to clean up after itself.

The problem could bewith IIS, or in the underlying JRE, but is probably a locked file somewhere. Not that I am an expert or anything.

[cfaussie] Re: OT: Virus protection software

2006-06-07 Thread David Pietersen
Actually, it might work outbetter for their competition. NowMicrosoft have zero incentive to really secure their products out-of-the-box, and it is clear that you will have to buy something
 to do the job, there is no need for it to be a MS product. Of course, plenty of people will use it by default, but if they actually fixed their products there would be no market whatsoever for Symantec et al. It might actually force these other companies to build decent products for a change also, as there will only be a market for one or two serious competitors.

 Hi Ryan, you wrote: Just a quick poll to find out which Virus / Spyware protection software people are using these days (no Linux is not an answer :). I
 turn to you CFAUSSIES because you probably have a similar work environment to me, and so understand the needs of a web agency. We have been using CA VET until now, but that product is being phased
 out. I have had Symantec AV Corporate Edition recommended to me, but our experience in the past with Symantec products is that they can be intrusive for a developer. Also Symantec's stuff is poor architecturally, it is not as effective as
 some of the other products out there. I gave McAfee Managed VirusScan a go, but it seemed to have a conflict with our desktop contact manager, which slowed to a crawl.
 The only useful thing we found with McAffee was being able to scan machines across the network when they were idle as the load was intrusive otherwise. Any ideas?
 yes, TrendMicro. Excellent range of products from personal PC protection to Enterprise-wide networked servers... Mind you we are biased as we are TrendMicro consulting partners but that
 is for a reason, we checked all of the major firms and they were closest to what we felt were our needs as a development shop and a Hosting Provider. HTH,

Hi,

Don't panic, it is not as Big Brother as that :-)

Australia Post provides QAS with a list of 'Deliverable Addreses like 100 Plain Street, East Perth, WA, 6004, and we validate those fields only against the data our users enter. There is nothing in there to say who lives there :-)


Having said that, I know you can buy 'reverse phone books' on CD-ROM that DO have that facility, and there was even an online one called the Black Pages that did it for a while.
