Hi there,

I am using Ubuntu 9.10 and I am looking for a program to download nzb
files similar to grab it for windows. I have tried to install hellanzb
but the file stays at 0. Do I need to look at another distro or is
there another application that works better?

I hope that someone can help me.

Hi,

Try sabnzbdplus. It has a web interface, so it runs in the background, 
but it works really well.

Re: [SLUG] Spider a website

You could use wget to do this, it's installed on most distributions by  
default.


Usually you'd run it like this: wget --mirror -np http://some.url/
(the -np tells it not to recurse up to the parent, which is useful if  
you only want to mirror a subdirectory. I add it on out of habit.)


It's not always perfect however, as it can sometimes mess the URLs up,  
but it's worth a try anyway.

I have a site written in PHP which needs to be hosted temporarily on  
a server which is incapable (read only does static content). This is  
not a problem from a temp presentation point of view as the default  
values for each page will suffice. So I'm just looking for a tool  
which will quickly pull the real site (on my home php capable  
server) into a directory that I can zip and send to the internet  
addressable server.


I know there's a lot of code out there, I'm asking for  
recommendations.


TIA's

The -k option to convert any absolute paths to relative ones can be
helpful with this (depending on what you meant by mess the URLs up).


I think it was URLs in stylesheets and in javascript (well, there's  
not much you can do with the javascript really)

[SLUG] Book Discounts?

2007-03-05 Thread Ycros
Hey,

Does anybody know if SLUG is signed up to and book discount programmes
for LUGs?

I did a search over the mailing list archives and came up with
nothing. Both O'Reilly and Pragmatic Programmer offer user group
discount schemes: http://ug.oreilly.com/ and
http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/sk/faqs/user_group_faq.html

I noticed that SLUG is listed on O'Reilly's LUG wiki page already,
does that mean we're already a part of their UG scheme? I think it
would be a good idea to consider signing up to one of these schemes
(if it's not expensive!)
