WTB: Mini DV Camera

2002-09-30 Thread Scott Palmer
Hi,

Bit off topic but I was wondering if anyone has a Mini DV Camera with IEEE
1394 (i.Link / FireWire) that they are wanting to sell?

Preferably a Cannon.

Its for Uni assignments so nothing too expensive.

Please contact off list.

Ragards,
Scott

Apache Web Server PHP for 10.2

2002-09-30 Thread Scott Palmer
One note.

When enabling PHP for the Apache Web Server in OS 10.2
the httpd.conf file will not contain the following (as outlined in the
tutorial)

# For example, the PHP 3.x module will typically use:
#
# AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
# AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .phps
#
# And for PHP 4.x, use:
#
# AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
# AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps


Instead you can add the following:

'AddType application/x-httpd-php .php'

after

'AddType application/x-tar .tgz'

In the httpd.conf file.

Re: Apple Australia apologizes to Gartner

2002-09-29 Thread Scott Palmer
Gartner is a research/IT/measurement company.

See www.gartner.com

 Are you referring to Garner? Not GarTner?
 
 Hi all I'm not sure if this is the same Gartner of Apple Australia here in
 W.A, but have a read. At http://www.macnn.com/news.php?id=14864
 
 Steve Jobs should come over and do a tour of duty of all his Apple HQ around

Re: Software raid in 10.2.1

2002-09-29 Thread Scott Palmer
I have 2x Striped Raid 40GB Seagate Barracuda's.

Works fine in 10.2 although does not display in OS9.


 Anyone know any good info on Software Raid performance and
 requirements of OS 10.2.1?
 
 Finally got a new machine (Damn impressed by delivery speeds from
 G-mac. Machines released in US on Tues, had mine here on Fri) and
 looking into Striped Raid Array with some extra HD's before i start
 to install anything.
 
 I'm gathering the Software raid gives improved HD access times at the
 expense of computer cycles? I can only find info on performance of
 softraid in OS9 and raid cards so far. I don't do any high level
 ripping or audio work though i'm more info graphic design and often
 work with very large files. Any recommendations. Assuming the
 hardware raid cards would take all the CPU performance loss on
 themselves relieving the CPU of that extra strain.
 
 Plan is 2x 120gb on ATA 100 bus Striped Raid Array for the main work drive
 2x 40gb on ATA 66 Striped array for the system and temp files and scratch
 disks
 
 Can 10.2.1 run on a striped array without any problems?
 Should the HD's be identical speced? The only 120g i can buy around
 is western digital whereas the internal one is IBM brand.
 
 I'm gathering the drives should be as closed speced to each other as
 possible to stripe. I cant' get an IBM deskstar here but can get a
 120GB westerdigital with 8meg cache.
 
 Any help greatly appreciated or a direction to a page with good info
 would also be great.
 
 Have yet to run the machine through its paces which i annoying with
 such a good machine just sitting here for now . Need HD sorted as
 soon as possible so i can go on an installation mission

FTP Problems in Dreamweaver with 10.2

2002-09-08 Thread Scott Palmer
Hi all,

If anyone experiences strange problems with Dreamweaver MX in OS10.2.

Eg: Constantly ³waiting for server², ³Cannot establish connection²,
³connection timed out², etc. etc.

When they shouldn¹t be appearing. Try setting the FTP timeout to 30sec.
There seems to be a strange glitch that makes dream weaver crash constantly
and display strange alerts if its set to 60sec in 10.2

Regards,
scott

 Keith, after installing 10.1 did you install in order :-
 1. Security Update 10-19-01
 2. Installer Update 1.0
 3. Then you can install MacOSX Update Combo 10.1.5
 When I try to install the ³apple installer updater² the drive I wantto

 is greyed out. And when I go to install 10.1.4 it tells me the installer
 update is needed
 
 The drive was erased before install. And software update says that
 everything is up to date (its certainly not!)
 
 Any comments would be appreciated.
 This is the way I updated my Sister's iBook  my iMacDV with out any

Re: MP3 music servers

2002-07-25 Thread Scott Palmer
Try Limewire, Acquisition, Phex or Neo.

The new version of acquisition is great. Limewire tends to run really
slowly.

Alternatively search for gnutella on Versiontracker.com and download one
of the other clients not listed above.

 Hi All, where do folks go for music sharing now that Audio Galaxy seems to
 have suffered the same fate as Napster?

Re: MP3 music servers

2002-07-25 Thread Scott Palmer
No the dodgy things don¹t work on the mac because Neo is not actually a
true Kazaa client. It is actually a shadow client. You have to manually
scan a range of IP addresses to find online servers.

The PC versions of Kazaa run more like Limewire. And we are yet to get one
for the Mac. Neo is ok though.

The official Kazaa client comes installed with spyware. As does Hotline
versions 1.5+, Adobe Photoshop 5+, Illustrator 8+, Stuffit Deluxe (new OSX
versions) and Surprise Surprise Office X. There are a few places on the web
where you can find information on the new spyware and how to disable it.

Because you can block ports and play with the firewall and do other fun
things in OSX it is quite easy to disable these programs from sending
private information back to the vendors.

Also I don¹t think a port scan can be classed as an attack of any kind asit
is targeting a different IP every few seconds. If you were bombarding the
same IP with requests from multiple computers then It could be considered a
DOS attack and your ISP would not be happy. In fact neither would the
authorities.

A great place if your interested in learning about DOS attacks, spyware and
amazing sofware is http://www.grc.com it is the homepage of Steve Gibson,
probably one of the best assembly language programmers around, It documents
various DOS and DRDOS attacks that have been inflicted on GRG.com in
alarming detail. Its a really intriguing site.


Regards,
Scott


 No one has mentioned Neo, a kazaa client. It is a Mac OS X only app butit
 allows you to search kazaa user files. It is not a perfect client, however;
 it actually scans the kazaa ports for online servers. Apparently this can
 (in some places) be constituted as a port scan attack, which may be
 considered very bad by your ISP. However, if you don't want to do this, the
 kindly souls that make the program have a starter kit where they have
 already done this so you can search from a predetermined list of servers.
 Naturally this will miss out any new servers though. Nevertheless, I have
 found this a pretty good program for most stuff.
 
 Kazaa is one of the more popular music sharing systems on PCs, even though
 they do dodgy things to your pc (transmit viruses, sell your computer time
 to companies etc). Fortunately I think the nasty stuff doesn't work on the
 mac. 
 
 You will need both the neo app and the starter kit, available at these
 locations:
 Neo app : 
 http://www.versiontracker.com/redir.fcgi/kind=1db=macid=14971/Neo.app.sit
 
 Neo starter kit:
 http://www.versiontracker.com/redir.fcgi/kind=4db=macid=14971/NeoStarterK
 it.sit
 
 You will need to follow the instructions included with the starter kit *to
 the letter*
 
 
 Hope this helps!
 
 Dave
