How to make netcfg2 run with regular user permissions

when i want to run netcfg2 to connect to my wireless i always have to be superuser then run netfg2. is there anyway to let the regular user run netcfg2?

sudo is your friend. You can also set it to only work with certain commands. Instead of having
USER_NAME ALL=(ALL) ALL
You can have
USER_NAME ALL=/usr/bin/netcfg2./usr/bin/netcfg-menu,[any other commands you want to add]

[SOLVED] How to make "yaourt" run with "AUR" command?

I want to change the yaourt command so i can use something like aur or AUR.
for example, instead of
yaourt -S package-name-here
I want to use
AUR -S package-name-here
so that it's easier to type. "yaourt" is such an odd string to type! hehe
I think i might use something like this:
function AUR {
**something like: exec /.../yaourt**
**and some other code to pass on -S or -U conditions...etc**
Can someone tell me what to put in this function and where to save it to?
Also, What's better: using the yaourt call above or the following custom function (instead of yaourt):
function AUR {
cd $aurdir
wget http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/$1/$1.tar.gz && tar -xzf $1.tar.gz && rm $1.tar.gz && cd $1 && makepkg -s
pacman -U **some code goes here to output the correct filename**
I have to think to myself "yeah our t" to type yaourt (haha) so to think "AUR" is much simpler, since that's what we're getting packages from anyways.

When and if one uninstalls yaourt, still gonna leave the aliases in the .bashrc... that's untidy too... Wich is more simple, "ln -s /usr/bin/yaourt /usr/bin/AUR <enter>" or "nano ~/.bashrc <enter> alias AUR='yaourt' <ctrl+x> <y> <enter>" ... It's better to use aliases in .bashrc because you can do so much more and get to learn alil bit more for future reference, but the reasons for not symlinking it's really not that bad. If you've ever used windows for example, symlink works almost the same as creating a shortcut to an application on the desktop, once unistalled the application, you manually have to delete the shortcut. Aliases is the proper way to go, i didn't know this at all.. I just symlinked to yaort but after reading this i switched to alias Btw mark topic as solved ^^

How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

Shared how? The other users can read the documents or you all can read and write the documents?
The first is easy just place the documents in /Users/Shared anyone can access the files there and the other users will be able to read them.
The second is a bit trickier.

How to make a reading implausible in user define validations?

Hi all,
Can any1 tell me how to make a reading implausible
in user define validations.
Regards,
Darshana.

I don't have an example at hand right now, but I've done this in the past.
If my memory doesn't fail me, one of the return parameters of the user-exit in which you have to make your validations has a parameter that let's you define (im)plausibility.
Edit: the user exit has:
EXCEPTIONS
PLAUSI_ERROR
So, raise this exception to get an implausible reading.
Hope this helps!
Kevin

How to make text columns with adobe muse

Hi,How to make text columns with adobe muse (like InDesign)?

Multiple columns can be acheived with CSS - http://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_multiple_columns.asp
div
-moz-column-count:3; /* Firefox */
-webkit-column-count:3; /* Safari and Chrome */
column-count:3;
I'm surprised that Muse does not support text columns yet, but perhaps the custom CSS can be added in style tags on page properties. Haven't tried it, but don't see why it wouldn't work.

How to make email link with a button with AC2 in flash cs3?

How to make email link with a button with AC2 in flash cs3?
I wrote this, but it does not work:
btn_emailinfo.on (release) {
getURL("mailto:"[email protected]");
}

I am guessing you put that on a frame?
If so, the syntax is as follows:
btn_emailinfo.onRelease = function(){
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
Though, if you are placing it directly on the button itself,
the syntax is:
on(release){
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
}

I want to make a dvd menu in iMovie because i don't have IDVD and can't find anywhere to download it?
For making DVDs I would recommend iMovie 06 and iDVD 09 both readily available on Amazon or eBay. Shop for iLife 06 and iLife 09.
You can make menus and chapters with any version of iMovie except the latest one. There's nothing wrong with iMovie 11 either but I prefer iMovie 06.
By using iMovie 06 and iDVD 09 I make DVDs with professional moving menus with very little effort. They look almost as good as Hollywood.

You only need to use the source code to implant these shows there where you want. In my eyes it would be the best that you use first a very new and blank DW file to perform (maybe in LiveView) the one or the other.
