Hi, Y'All, This morning when I went into my computer/library, I
detected a
strong electrical smell. The computer system had been shut down
Thursday
night and was still off this morning.  About 3:30 p.m. I used a
flashlight to reconnect only my G-5 computer
system, punched the start button on the front, and got ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING.
Now I'm really concerned, scared, almost terrified. I've had this G-5
only
since Dec '09. No trouble except the usual noisy fan(s).

Can someone give me a checklist to go through before I haul this heavy
behemoth 50+ miles to a repair dealership.

If the Mac was shut down it's VERY unlikely it's the Mac.

Where is that Mac plugged in? I suspect that outlet is what fried.
Personally, I'd wait for the electrician, or someone like him.


 I replaced the G5 with this old Sawtooth and had and am having NO problem
 and am using same cables, power cords, etc. in the same power strip spots.
 Is  ALL power  off just because I have Shutdown my computer? Could a

Check for coolant leaks, since it's a dual 2.5. Check here for more

 Diane, yes it is multifunction and no the scanner will not work wirelessly.
 For scanning I switch the USB cable over to another computer. The reason I
 need the wireless connection is so I can print from my G4 Ti-book. I
 primarily scan photos and generally do it in batches.

I'm not entirely sure on this because your experience has typically
been mine, but I would think multifunction printers with wireless
networking support builtin would also support wireless scanning. A
friend of mine actually has a ethernet enabled multifunction printer
and it does support scanning over the network which is really nice. So
in short, it seems to me that any multifunction printer with some sort
of networking builtin should support scanning over that interface. But
YMMV.

 The batteries used in these units (AAPC;s too) tend to be standard lead-acid
 sealed batteries. Try someplace like Batteries Etc. for replacements, if
 they have them in your area.

Oh ok cool, that's good to know. The battery hasn't been much of a
issue so far so I haven't had to check and see if it's something
generic or proprietary but it's good to know that most likely the only
thing I won't be able to replace is the unit itself which so far,

 Could you briefly state how to do that? Terminal is kinda over my head.

Sure, it's: cp -R src dest, where src and dest are full directory

Re: To Journal or not

2010-03-22 Thread John Musbach
I would strongly recommend you enable joirnaling because not all
filesystem changes are written to the physical HD medium until
shutdown but are tentatively recorded in the journal which helps
prevent data loss in the event of unexpected shutdowns. If there's no
journaling and a unexpected shutdown occurs there's a better chance of
data loss than were journaling enabled.

This is anecdotal, but I did observe it first hand.   At the 2008
PyCon, the wireless network performance was very bad at first.  Our head
network guy made 2 changes.  He changed the channels on some of the
access points.  The wireless contractor had set them all up on the same
channel.  Our guy also lowered the power on the access points.  He told
me that both changes were needed.  The higher power was causing multiple
problems, he said.  I did not give a lot of details before, because I
don't know them.  But, our wireless network worked much better after
both changes were made.
The rooms were pretty big, and so people were not always close to the
access points.

 Too many WAPs in one location, so close that they overlap and step on
 each other, probably with flourescent lighting here and there --
 that's a whole other house of pain!  You can cure some of it by
 repatterning the coverage - changing the channels.  And when that's
 not enough, then you need to reduce the power to further reduce the
 overlaps.

 In this particular thread, however, we're talking about needing to
 provide coverage over a distance, to a place where there is no
 coverage at all!  No overlaps etc.

Personally, I think the best solution would be to purchase a cell
tower. Sure the FCC might eventually come knocking on your door but
until then and as long as your network is secured with a very strong
password... g

Not only that, but IIRC higher power means a thinner broadcast radius

 I'm afraid I wasn't able to parse thinner broadcast radius. What
 shape (??) results from a thinner (??) radius?

Basically, in lower power access points--like consumer Apple airport
base stations the signal is broadcast in a circular fashion around the
base station. But as the power increases, the signal becomes more and
more narrow until at the highest powers the signal is simply broadcast
in a line from the access point to the receiving end. At least that's
how I understand it.

 Only so long as you have the Postscript update in them; the original

 got a 1994 4M with the old Postscript, on my network via a built-in
 JetDirect

 Mechanically it's stellar, but I have continuing issues with print jobs
 blowing up on PS errors. Along about 10.4 or 10.5 HP yanked the old old HP
 drivers of their web site, and Apple's HP4M driver just does not work, any
 time I print anything more complex than plain text it blows up.

I don't think that's anything new actually, I recall using those
printers at elementary school and on the ones without the newer
postscript ROM anything beyond the basics printed gibberish.

Oh ok, I meant more like a software solution for allowing people to
dialin and send you faxes which are then saved on your computer
automatically. I know Windows 9x came with such a solution and I
believe Mac OS 9 had similar software based solutions but I don't know
if Mac OS X comes with such a solution or if a 3rd party one is
available? It seems like with the decline of modems and faxes in
general there is little demand for such software and as a result
little to no selection for such a application, although ultimately I
guess one of the email fax services would work if one was looking for
a solution of this type and could not find proper software for their
OS.

 The time I witnessed it shutdown I wasn't actually using it but it seemed to

 strange except that it typically seems to shutdown a little after midnight.

The following link uses archive.org because for some reason Apple

Those websites always end up getting shutdown, and then they just come

no it's not legit. They're taking pirated copies of software and
selling it for pure illegitimate profit. You won't be able to get

 The offending thread containing the spam (entitled [no subject]) is

Oh noes, it's also still present in all the mirrored archives as well
(e.g. http://www.mail-archive.com/g3-5-list@googlegroups.com/msg15332.html),
whatever will we do?! Realistically with such a method of
communication like this, there is no way to delete a message once it
has been sent because even if you can delete it from the main archive
it'll still have been sent to all email subscribers and it'll appear
in any mirroring archives regardless. The only way you can really
control this is on a per person basis, and that means deleting the
emails you don't want, creating filters for constant nuisances, and
ultimately unsubscribing if the majority of the list postings are not
useful to you. So really, although the nannies are doing their best to
keep things under control (and they're doing a pretty good job at
doing so) they can truly only do preventative measures--there is very
little that can be done after the fact but they can do preventative
maintenance after the fact to help prevent a recurrence both from the
offending poster and from other posters as well which is what they've
been doing by posting FAQs and warnings publicly to the list. I don't
really think there's much more that can be done...

Re: How to Trace Spam / Harassing e-mails off G3-G5 list and others

2010-01-25 Thread John Musbach

 How do you trace bad e-mails back to their origins? These things, mostly
 VIAGRA ads,  are also coming from the G3-G5 list, although I think this one
 came from someone who has viewed my artsite recently. I usually send them on
 to spamdetector.notcau...@verizon.net, but I'd like to follow this one back
 if possible to their ISP.

According to the data you provided, the spam email was relayed through
vms169131.mailsrvcs.net whose IP address is 67.215.65.132 which when
whois'd through arin.net's IP database returns that that server is
owned by OpenDNS. The sender, whose IP is 192.223.124.145 lives in
Brazil and it appears either a rogue employee is sending spam or one
of the company's machines (more likely) has become infested with
malware as that IP returns:

phone:   +55 11 545 4432


and when the company Industrias Gessy Lever Ltda is googled it turns
out to be a cleaning products business
(http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=ensl=ptu=http://industrias-gessy-lever-ltda.br.telelistas.net/vct/produtos-para-limpeza/araraquara/78082070.htmei=rBpeS6ClHIea8Abnvu2TBQsa=Xoi=translatect=resultresnum=1ved=0CA4Q7gEwAAprev=/search%3Fq%3DIndustrias%2BGessy%2BLever%2BLtda%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Doff%26sa%3DG).
So my best guess as to what's going on is that  Industrias Gessy
Lever Ltda is a client of OpenDNS with one of their hosted solutions,
and there is a internal issue (likely malware) that is attaching
itself to the appliance and using it as a spam relay. To get the most
likely reaction and action against this act, I would report it to
OpenDNS as the problem is coming from one of their clients.

 How do people get our e-mail addresses from the G3-G5 list?

If you google g3-5-list archive you can see that there are multiple
archives of this list being maintained apart from the google groups
archive, it is possible that one of those archives does not censor
email addresses contained in emails sent to the list. It is also
possible that a service you at one point subscribed to sold your email
address or even that at some point you became victim to a piece of
malware that harvested your email address. So in short, although it is
possible that your email address was harvested from one of the
g3-5-list archives, it is also likely (perhaps more so even) that a
service you subscribed to sold your address to spammers or a piece of
malware harvested it at one point in time (if you ever used Windows).

 In my case, that's three strikes for PayPal over eight years. It's not a
 terrible track record, but PayPal's ability to stop you from using the money

 Even if you don't stop using PayPal, you may want to have a second option
 available before you run into an unanticipated account lockout.

Disconnect from the Internet. Seriously, disk space, bandwidth, and

 John, Garage Sale has matured a LOT since I last looked at it.  I have an

Good, Garage Sale looked pretty nice to me too. AppleWorks should work

 Hello,

 I am a Nanny here at LEM.  We have some rules about posting in our forums.
 One rule that gets looked over quite frequently is what is called ³top
 posting.²  We ask that you post your responses AFTER the text you are
 answering.  This is called ³bottom posting² and considered the polite
 Internet standard.  Naturally you should also trim out some of the
 non-essential information from the previous post as well.  Here is a snippet
 of the rules that you read when you signed up for these lists:

 http://www.lowendmac.com/lists/netiquette.shtml

 Thanks for your understanding.  You will be warned first, then temp banned
 and then banned from the list if you don¹t follow the few rules we ask you
 to follow.  Usually we will ban you or moderate you (so your post has to be
 approved by a nanny before it will hit the list) then temporarily ban you
 (usually 72 hours), and then if you still don¹t ³get it² you will just be
 banned from the listŠ.which we really do not want to do.  So please take the
 few extra seconds and trim your posts then post your response at the bottom.
 Not only is it polite, it is a requirement of our lists.  Some threads get
 really hard to follow if you ³top post.²

 We have posted several warnings.  The warnings are going to stop and then
 bans are going to begin.  It is not that difficult to trim a post and then
 reply in the natural fashion which is below the quoted text.

 Thank you again for your understanding.

 Kyle Hansen

Why are you trying to enforce a non-existent rule:

Friends:

After discussion with the other list managers, we've decided to end
our policy of asking that list members not top post their replies.
That's the default behavior of most email clients, and just reminding
people of our recommendation to bottom post or interleave your
replies has become more trouble than its worth. From this point
forward, top posting is no longer an issue.

Dan Knight, list owner
publisher, LowEndMac.com

.Dan Knight a while ago made this rule no longer a issue, I don't
quite get why you're trying to reinforce it now. I don't think it's
too wise to try and cross the list owner.

But you also gotta realize that unlike Microsoft, Apple's source code
is not bloated with backwards compatibility hacks like Windows is. If
you look at the leaked NT source code you can see such outrageous
stuff like bits of windows 95 code being hacked on top for backwards
compatibility. This is actually Microsoft's ultimate fall because
these backwards compatibility hacks are catching up with them and
preventing decent security and stability. Additionally, because
Microsoft business consumers now expect this constant backwards

Vista is crap... Is it just me or does your vista machine take forever
to shutdown while appearing to do nothing?

Re: Creating temporary File?

 I've never used the empty free space option when zeroing my hard
 drive in disk utility yet. So, when the Creating temporary file
 comes up in the progression of the emptying process, what exactly does
 that mean, creating temporary file? I thought I was zeroing out the
 free space? Jeff

It zeros out the free space by creating a large temporary file that
spans the entire free space (or close to it) which in effect
overwrites whatever was contained in the free space. However be aware
that one pass is only sufficient for home usage, there is still a
possibility that old files contained in the free space are
recoverable--only many multiple passes, or simply degausing the hard
drive (which would erase EVERYTHING on the hard drive, not just the
free space) can ensure that old deleted files are not at all
recoverable. And even then you can never be too sure, ultimately the
safest way to prevent access to confidential files is to destroy the
hard drive itself.

Friends:

After discussion with the other list managers, we've decided to end
our policy of asking that list members not top post their replies.
That's the default behavior of most email clients, and just reminding
people of our recommendation to bottom post or interleave your
replies has become more trouble than its worth. From this point
forward, top posting is no longer an issue.

Re: OS X Server 10.4 v's OS X Client 10.5 for home server

2009-03-27 Thread John Musbach

On Thu, Mar 26, 2009 at 1:07 PM, Expat ian.prick...@gmail.com wrote:

 Hi All
 I'm setting up a home server (Xserve G4) to act as my main server for
 data, itunes, web hosting and possibly mail etc. given the choice
 between OS X Server 10.4 and OS X Client 10.5 which would you choose?
 I really like the OS X server management tools as they make monitoring
 and administrating the server incredibly easy but 10.4 doesn't have
 Time machine , lack of budget is what's preventing me from choosing OS
 X Server 10.5.
 What do you think?

Don't waste your money on any version of OS X server. Instead use a
client version that you already have (or even better, something like
Debian for your server--OS X is much more suited for general desktop
use then server use). Using a repository like macports you can install
nongimped versions of Samba, Apache, Postfix, etc. Then you can use
the following instructions (ignore the comment about it being for OS X
server, it works fine on OS X client) to install Webmin which'll give
you a web based administration interface for all the services you want
to run on your server for free: http://www.webmin.com/osx.html. IMO
the only benefit of OS X server is the ability to define security
policies for macs in one central location as well as have a central
source for login authentication, everything else it provides can be
done for free without the purchase of a OS X server license. Since you
don't seem to want to do either of those things OS X server really
won't provide you any benefit.
