Irssi-users: anybody using irssi-xmpp? How to install as user?

hi guys,
I'm using irssi as irc client and would like to use / integrate the jabber plugin irssi-xmpp
Unfortunately I have no su rights the specific machine, so I'd have to compile + install it as user.
Also, the dependencies loudmouth and irssi-dev might or might not be installed.
Has anybody ever done this?
or
Is anybody using the module irssi-xmpp like this?
I figure I'd have to download the dependencies to my home and compile irssi-xmpp in there linking to the downloaded dependencies,
is that correct?
Thanks in advance,
grandtheft

To actually answer your question, yes you are correct. In the make file for irssi-xmpp you will need to tell it where those dependencies are located.

How to install/extend user licence in Netweaver SR3

Hello,
I purchased a Netweaver Devloper Subscription and installed the SR3 release on Windows back in October. Then I created a SAP developer user and installed an SSCR key for this user for ABAP development. Finally, I installed the permanent Development Subscription license under New Licenses and deleted the temporary one under Old Licenses in SLICENSE screen. Now under New Licenses, I can see my permanent license is good until next September but the logon for my developer user fails giving me an error that it failed the license check. I can still log on as SAP* but under System/Status the license expiration is blank and the color of the system icon in the mangement console never changes to green when I try to start the system. Is it not recognizing the new license that I installed? Is it necessary to extend the license for individual users?
Whatever help you can provide would be most appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Rovi,
I'll be happy to tell you what I know, which is still not much yet, but, yes, I did get past that point.
My original problem was that though I had a 64-bit capable CPU, I was running a 32-bit version of Windows 2003. The SR3 release is really only supported on 64-bit systems. When I installed Windows Server 2003 Standard 64-bit, that missing selection in the installer which has the Central Instance under it magically showed up in the list and I had no trouble installing it.
But there is one other problem I had later. Be sure you have the correct 64-bit version of the Java SDK. I am using the version 1.4.2_13 and the link I got for it from this forum for is:
https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/CDS-CDS_Developer-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewProductDetail-Start?ProductRef=j2sdk-1.4.2_13-amd64-JPR@CDS-CDS_Developer
The java installer packed with this may fail the first time and then work on the second try.
As for the license issue which I opened this thread for, I later found out it was the result of a wrong hardware key. There was a letter 'o' in the beginning of the hardware key which I mistook for a digit '0'.
Good luck in your efforts. By the way, I am leaving on vacation Dec 13, so if I miss your reply, I'll look for it in January.

GPO: CD and DVD: Deny write access prevents user from using their USB Pen drive, but other users or ok

My Users have secure pen drives that launch a CDROM partition with a secure logon app that decrypts the main USB mass storage element of the pen drive on successful logon. The problem I have is that users who install the usb pen drive cannot then
initialize the CDROM launcher app to input their password to access the mass storage element of the pen drive making it useless.
However, any other user that has the same type of pen drive who then plugs it in to the endpoint that already has the drivers installed is able to access their own pen drive or the other users pen drive (providing the know the password).
So I've isolated the problem being down to the presence of the GPO setting stated above on the Removable Storage Access Policy, and by not having this policy in place when a user installs the pen drive they have no issues, but I can't find a way to clean
up a user who is already broken even if I remove the GPO from that user, delete their local profile so that they logon as a new user (no roaming or other data) and use a variety of utilities such as USBOblivion to clear out the registry and file system of
the USB device and installation. When the original user logs back on and then installs the usb pen drive again they have the same issue, but no other users do. I have the same issue if I try this with an alternative user or admin as the first user after the
'clean up'. Everyone else can use the pen drive except the user that originally installed it when the GPO was in place.
If I move the user to a new endpoint or rebuild their endpoint then they have no problem being the installer of the usb pen drive and then using it since the GPO was removed, so what I need to know is what is it about the USB install and the GPO that
is tattooing in Windows somewhere and how do I remove it?

Hi,
In my opinion, this is probably not Windows GPO problem. To confirm the suppose, you can follow the path below to check GPO settings if there is any change after the software installed.
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Removable Storage Access
User Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Removable Storage Access
These two policy manage system and current user Removable Storage access.
If there is no change with these policy, it would be better to contact the manufacture of the driver for further assistance.

I am using macbook air; how to install tata photon plus

bought a new macbook air, using with open office right now. Unable to install tata photon plus.

Those two icons on the Desktop were probably the application, iPhoto.app and Preview.app. You will have to reinstall iPhoto from the disk it came on originally. If it was included on the Air when you bought it then look on the disks that came with it. It might look like one of these:

To get Preview download and reapply the Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update. That should reinsatll Preview. If it doesn't use Pacifist on the combo updater to extract and install Preview.

How to set which User Profile attribute is used for email messages?

I am having a problem setting up User Profiles in SharePoint 2013. I have users that are both (1) Active Directory users authenticated using Windows Authentication, and (2) Active Directory users, existing in another distinct OU, authenticated via ADFS (active
directory federation services).
My problem is with the ADFS users. I want to have the users unique id be their logon email account ([email protected]), but want to populate their work email attribute with their "actual" or real email account.
If I have an OU (External Users) and within that OU (XYZ Company Users), AND my domain is contoso.com, then I want to add a user such that they have a unique id in active directory ([email protected], but want their email address to be whatever
it is (I.e. [email protected]).
MY PROBLEM: I can setup the User Profile Synchronization service to map the properties perfectly, but when I I try to add/share a user in a SharePoint site, the user's account email ([email protected] is sent the message, not their "Work Email"
([email protected]).
QUESTION: How do I get SharePoint to use the "Work Email" attribute (NOT the account email) of a User Profile when sending email messages?

Okay, within Active Directory, the user's email IS set to
[email protected] The "unique value" (Using the account logon name) works just fine. The problem is SharePoint. When I logon with another account and choose to share a site with this particular test user, the Email for sharing the site is sent to
[email protected] (the account logon name), not
[email protected] (the user's email address)
How do I get SharePoint to actually use the email address of an AD user, and not use the account logon name when sending notifications?

How to make different users to use different Plan_Tables?

How to make different users to use different Plan_Tables?
I want each user use his own's Plan_Table. How to achieve this goal?

I want each user use his own's Plan_Table. How to achieve this goal?Which version of Oracle - if you're on 10g or later you are already (effectively) doing this.
If not, then copy the 10g strategy back to your version; in outline:
<ul>
drop all existing plan tables
create a table (but call it plan_table$) in the SYS schema (you may prefer to use SYSTEM) as a global temporary table on commit preserve rows
create a public synonym plan_table for plan_table$
grant select insert update delete on plan_table to public
</ul>
Look in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catplan.sql in a 10g version of Oracle to check how it's done.
Each user gets a private (temporary) table in their temporary tablespace whenever they use the plan_table
Their private data disappears when there session ends.

1. Current work flow :-In web site the user have to register themselves in the web site and enters his details along with user id, password and email id. Once user
is registered then he will login with his user id and password. The user id is picked from login control and that set in “SPWeb.CurrentUser” as user id and system uses "Membership.ValidateUser" method to Authenticate user for login.
2. New Requirement: we would like to facilitate the user to login with Email id as well as user id.
Problem:
We replaced "Membership.ValidateUser" method to our own method to Authenticate user with email id/user id and password.
When user is login with user id and password it is working successfully but in the case of email id and password –“the email id is picked from user control and set as
"HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name" but we are not getting “SPWeb.CurrentUser” and it shows null value.”
We are able to get user id from database using email id of user. Please help us how we can set user id in "SPContext.Current.Web.CurrentUser".

Chat App: how to store the user IP in database when they login.

hello,
i am working on chat application. first i made a login GUI form. after login when we run the Chat program, it ask the ip address of the server to whom it want to connect. and if u enter the ip address, it will connect to the server and chat will begin, thats working perfect.
but i want to show the list of users who r logged on and when i simply click on the user name, chat should begin.
i have the logic that when any user log in, then its IP address will be stored in the database. this ip address will shown to the online users.
but i dont know how to store the user information in database when they log in. can any body suggest me wht lines of code i should use.
thanks.

palakk wrote:
i have the logic that when any user log in, then its IP address will be stored in the database. Bad approach. That will only work if this chat is only intended for use on a LAN. If it's used on the internet, then your users' IP addresses will almost always be either a) those of their routers, or b) private IP addresses, and in both cases, multiple users can have the same IP address.
this ip address will shown to the online users. Why would you want to do that? I want to chat with "Bill", not with "1.2.3.4".
but i dont know how to store the user information in database when they log in.Do the same thing that you're currently doing to store the IP address, but with the other information you want to store.
can any body suggest me wht lines of code i should use. This is not a code writing service.

How to install user 'hwd' from CD (SOLVED)

Forgive me, but I've searched on how to install a user program. Namely I want to install 'hwh'
I have remade the Don't Panic CD with 'hwd-4.8.2.bin.tar.gz' inside the arch/pkg directory
on the cd. pacman see's it, but won't install it.
I know using the internet is the easiest way, but the pc I'm trying to install it on doesn't have
internet access. I noticed it is missing the .pkginfo and .filelist files that the other orignal one
have. I guess my question is how do I install "user" packages without using the internet.
I'm trying to get Arch installed using the below guide, and shows using hwd :
file://localhost/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/Arch%20Voodoo%20Install.mht
Should I have put the hwd file on my /home somewhere, or will this work. I don't know enough about
Arch and/or pacman to direct its path. I have manage to alter pacman.conf inside /etc to point to the
cdrom to get the other stuff off of it. I now have a working video but I would like to see how or
what 'hwd' does.
Thanks for any help, and please excuse my ignorance.

hwd-4.8.2.bin.tar.gz is not an Arch package - that's why pacman doesn't like it.
Get hwd-4.8.2-1-<arch>.pkg.tar.gz from any Arch mirror (<arch> is i686 or x86_64, as required).
Question answered, so now the advice: you don't need hwd. Arch's default hardware detection is better.
Thanks, I found it here:
ftp://mirrors.unixheads.org/archlinux/extra/os/i686/
Confusing for new user. Because I found the other one here:
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/3946/
Even though at the top of the header it states hwd 4.8.2-1
but in the sources it had hwd 4.8.2 ONLY.
In future I'll follow the ftp mirror.
Edit: Oh, I see. I think your advice is referring to this package:
hwdetect-0.8-8.pkg.tar.gz
If so, I thought 'hwd' added something this one didn't. Accoring to the guide I had listed.
Thanks for your help.

Recently bought new printer. All works fine with one OSX user. However, cannot print anything on other OSX user, including cannot print Adobe PDFs or to new printer. Puzzling!

computer = Mac PowerPC G5
OS = 10.4.11
Adobe Acrobat 7
HP laserjet M1212nf
I recently bought a new HP printer. I was on an admin user when I installed it. All works fine with this admin account/user. I can print to the HP, print to Adobe PDFs.
However, when I then go over to another user account, I cannot print *anything*. I cannot print to Adobe PDF, cannot print to the new HP. If I try to print an excel file, it says "cannot communicate with the printer" along with some useless suggestions. If I try to print a page on FireFox, nothing happens. That is, sure I get the usual dialog box, click the appropriate choice of printer, click the number of copies, then click the OK button ... and nothing happens. No pdf process is started. Nothing is sent to the HP printer.
The fact that both printer options are not working suggests it is some kind of OS problem, not specific to either printer "device".
Any assistance is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi BDAqua,
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm a bit leery of trying that. I would think that if the driver was not installed, then none of my users could use the printer. However, both admin users can use the new printer. The list of available printers is:
Adobe PDF 7.0
New HP Printer
I also used to have Old HP Printer, which I removed. Before, Users A, B and C could use both the Adobe PDF and the Old HP printers. Then, after I added the New HP Printer, it showed up in the list of printers for all three users. However, after I added the new printer, only the two admin accounts, users A and C, can actually print anything. Both users A and C can use the Adobe PDF printer AND the New HP Printer. But I get error messages with user B, for both the Adobe PDF printer and the New HP Printer.
