Re: modifying phpnuke, postnuke or phpwebsite for utf8

Does anybody know what I should look out for if I want to apply such modification? (I know, grep iso-8859-1 and then change that. I am looking for the other cases, and whether I have to add something like 'use utf8' in perl.) I have once started working on post-nuke 0.63 with a UTF-8 hebrew locale. I don't recall any horrible technical difficulty, but I didn't get to work very much with it, so I may have missed some database issues. There was no problem posting articles and such, IIRC. The thing is that the main code should be charset-neutral.

perl question
Hi, Assume file q.txt contains one line with the text A = $a and I want to read this file in a perl script and substitute the value of $a for '$a' without using a s/\$a/$a/g construct. Can I do that? It should be understood that the value of $a is set in the script, not in the text file. This is useful for creating localizable error messages that contain runtime information. Thanks, Arie Folger -- It is absurd to seek to give an account of the matter to a man who cannot himself give an account of anything; for insofar as he is already like this, such a man is no better than a vegetable. -- Book IV of Aristotle's Metaphysics = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[Perl] Next Perl metting on 10.10 in Tel Aviv
Hi ppl, I am sorry that it took so long for me to arrange this but finally we have the place thanks to the generosity of Raz Information Systems http://www.raz.co.il/ who provide us with the place to held the next meeting. See the location on their site. So the next Perl meeting will be on 10.10 , this thursday in Tel Aviv. We'll meet at 18:00 Shlomo Yona will talk about sort in Perl and I'll give a short book review. (see details in the archives of the Perl mailing list at www.perl.org.il from Shlomo) I'll bring books with me that you can take home. I'll list all the books on our web page along with the person who took it so we can track the books. (See the list of books in the archive of the Perl mailing list) Since then I have received two additional books from Manning: Data Munging (which I read now, sorry guys :-) and Extending and Embedding Perl. I am going to update the details on http://www.perl.org.il/20021010.html soon. Please e-mail me if you intend to come so I can have an approximate head count. regards -- Gabor = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Mounting few Iso's on the same point

Linux does not have this feature (I think BSD has it). I remember a few months ago someone metioned something similar here, but I could not find this message. Here's the solution I use on IGLU's server. On IGLU, we wanted to mount all of RedHat ISOs into their standard directory structure, as it appears on RedHat's FTP site, to save disk space. It all worked out pretty well. 1. Mount the ISOs into different directories. 2. Use my union utility to consolidate the different directories into one single directory. It creates directories and symbolic links as necessary, so that the target directory almost doesn't take up any disk space. Usage: union source-dir1 source-dir2 source-dir2 ... target-dir (Tip: If you want to offer those files via FTP, like we do, make the source directory paths relative -- because your FTP site doesn't begin at /) You can get it from http://toast.unwind.co.il/hacks/union Share and enjoy! = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Linux + Internet by Kvalim
On Mon, 7 Oct 2002, Boulgakov Andrei wrote: Hi! What is the way to connect Linux to Inet by Kvalim? Is it the same as ADSL? Naturally, you will get a cable modem which will let you be connected via a USB slot or via a network card. The USB way is problematic and not recommended in general. Not only that the support in Linux (for USB cable modems) is still in its underpants (some good modules exist only in Mandrake 9.0, and probably in Redhat 8.0 as well, but on the last one I didn't check. anyway correct me if I am wrong), but it is not recommnded since it's a direct resources consumer, and if you attach to your USB slot another device (such as a printer, a scanner and a like), it will start working even worse (some hickups may occur, priorities problems with your modem and the rest of the devices and more). The more recommneded way is via a network card, which your cable modem is plugged into, and you are done (the only thing that needs to be recognized this way, is the network card, and there's almost no chance that it won't be so. This way, your cable modem plays only as a matchmaker between your netword card and the packets, and the signals that you get from the cable line). What should be installed/configured? In general - not too much. If you attach it to a network card, then you don't need to touch the cable modem at all. If you insist on a USB, go for the right modules (ofcourse), and good luck. Can small home network be connected? Ofcourse Will my Web server be visible to the World? Ofcourse.. once you connect it in the right way, you've got full network abilities at home. Highly recommended - don't touch the cable modem settings :) You would really not want to change settings such as frequencies, etc. (unless you really know what you're doing, ofcourse).

ddclient question
Hi people, I know that many people here uses dyndns.org services for registering their dynamic IP - and I'm having a problem with Netvision's transparent proxy... The problem is very simple - the ddclient perl script checks every 3000 seconds (50 minutes) the IP using web address: http://checkip.dyndns.org - and there's the problem - sometimes it gets my real IP, and sometimes... netvision's cached IP. The problem doesn't occur if you're connected several days in a row, but unfortunately, due to stupid Bezeq movement - I had tons of problems when I moved to a new house - 1200 meters (yes, meters) from my old house (took them 10 days to move a single phone line + 48 hours to move the ADSL service, not mentioning another 48 hours for voice mail) - so I had a bunch of connect/disconnect scenarios.. Any suggestions? Thanks, Hetz To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
XF86Config problem
this is mandrake 9, fresh install . my card is NVidia GEforce MX. everything worked very nicly after installation. i rebooted the machine today, and X will not load. it complains that no screens found, which is kinda redicules since i didnt change anything in the config file, and didnt change anything in my hardware since the last time it worked. the only modifications i did was to add the load glx option for 3d support, and changed the driver name from nv to nvidia (had to do that for playing quake ;) the only way to load X now, is to change it back to nv and to disable glx support. NVidia drivers are installed (from the nvidia website) and the NVdriver module is loaded.

Any suggestions? Why are you using the URL to probe IP in the first place? I just use the default setup which reads the ppp0 interface IP using the ifconfig command. It works very well for some time now, with any ISP. If that won't work for you, I guess you can simply run a daemon somewhere that throws your IP when you connect to port X. Embedding this into ddclient should be easy.
