Re: [SLUG] Debugging Linux ACL's

2014-09-01 Thread Norman Gaywood
Then there may not be a user in your user database (/etc/passwd, LDAP,
etc) that has a UID (uidNumber) equal to 300.

That's OK, it just means there is no name associated with that UID
number. So 'ls -l' will show the owner of the file as '300', a
process listing 'ps auxf' will show processes run by '300' and not
a username, etc.

Is this perhaps linked to a domain or anything like that?

Yes good point. Since this seems to be something to do with samba
shares, the user '300' is probably the uidNumber of a user in a
windows domain.

Linux can use AD as an LDAP server if you want to set it up. I think
you also need 'services for Unix' or something setup in your AD as
well. With that setup, the getent command will see the username/UID
mappings.

You can also find out the username associated with UIDnumber 300
by doing an LDAP query on AD.

ldapsearch -x -h ad-server uidNumber=300

But, that just the simplest query. A lot more needs to setup like
default DN info. Also you will probably have to bind the the AD server
as a user [-D binddn] [-w password] switches for the query to work.
And this all assumes you have the 'services for Unix' installed on
your AD server.

There may be a simple samba like way to do things that I don't know.

[SLUG] LaTeX niggle.

2014-09-01 Thread William Bennett
Well, I started a project: to set a book, properly.

Front cover first.

Found image with great taste.

Did the research. Use wallpaper package, they said.

Wrote simple program. Herewithunderbeneath:



\documentclass[11pt]{book}
\usepackage{wallpaper}
\begin{document}
\ThisLLCornerWallpaper{0.5}{TrialImage.jpg}
\end{document}

-

Gave command

latex FrontPage.tex

Been a while since I've used LaTeX.

Was unprepared for output blast. Obviously something cosmically unimpressed.

Herewithunderbeneath log file. Could someone tell me what I did wrong,
please?

It should be \ThisLLCornerWallPaper{0.5}{TrialImage.jpg} The P in Paper
is capitalized also

\ThisLLCornerWallPaper{0.5}{TrialImage} should work at least it does with png's

On further study of this you'll need some text on the page don't know
why, this works:

\documentclass[11pt]{book}
\usepackage{wallpaper}
\usepackage{color}
\begin{document}
\ThisLLCornerWallPaper{0.5}{TrialImage.jpg}
\section*{sometext}

as does this:

If you need it without text on the page do this:

2014-09-01 Thread Marghanita da Cruz

Is anyone claiming their M5 motorway cashback online?

Or doesn't their system work with Linux/Firefox?

Re: [SLUG] LaTeX niggle.

2014-09-01 Thread Norman Gaywood
As well as fixing the spelling of \ThisLLCornerWallPaper as Francis
suggested, you should use the pdflatex command to generate directly to
pdf. Using the latex command to generate dvi, then dvi2ps to get ps
and maybe convert to pdf is not needed anymore.

So:

pdflatex FrontPage.tex

will make FrontPage.pdf
