Is it possible to create an "offline" file of company specific updates?

Hello everyone -
Wanted to know if and how it is possible to create an offline file(.cab) of our current, company specific Windows Updates. We currently use the stand alone SUS for all domain PCs.
I'd then like to apply this file to our current image, then capture it.
Currently our image is a bit dated and any deployment of this image will then have to "catch up" to all of our updates that we deploy, (around 300MB+ right now).
TIA,
randy

Is it possible to create an installation file, or JumpStart file, for iCS 2.x?

Is it possible to create an installation file using the
"setup -k" command for
iPlanet Calendar Server(iCS) 2.1? And is it possible to install iCS 2.1 with
JumpStart
from an installation server, or do I need to use the installation log?
<P>
The installer for iCS 2.x does not support silent installation (the
setup -k command). To install
iCS 2.x, the system administrator must run the installer directly on each
system where the calendar server is to be installed.
<P>
Silent installation may be supported on a future release.

Is it possible to create a MPEG4 file that is still hi def?

Hello, I'm new to Compressor, having just installed Compressor 3.5. I have a short Final Cut hi def (1080i) video file that my son wants to upload as a hi def file on youtube. He tried uploading the Final Cut file, but it was too large for youtube (over 3 gig), and apparently they requested a mpeg4 file. I messed with Compressor last night and created a 952 MB file using the Hi Def folder in Setting. I also created a 252 MB file using the MPEG4 folder in Settings. But somehow I don't believe that the MPEG4 file is hi def.
Is it even possible to create an mpeg4 file in compressor that is hi def? If so, could you please tell me which setting to use?
Thanks so much, Bob

Does the 1280 X 720 indicate that it is definitely hi def?
By definition (no pun intended), 'high definition' is any resolution greater than 'standard definition.' Standard definition video in NTSC is 720x480 (NTSC rectangular pixels or NTSC 640x480 square pixels). Standard definition in PAL is 720 x576.
how is it possible to still have hi def, if the file is 1/9 the size of the original file?
For a watered down version of compression, some of the information for each pixel's RGB values are thrown out during the compression process. For example, in MPEG-2 compression (commonly used for DVD and broadcast TV), the first frame is an independent or "I" frame, containing all the data for each pixel's RGB value. The next 14 frames only contain the data for each pixel that changed from the I frame or from the previous frame. This group of 15 frames is known as a GOP (group of pictures). The 16th frame is another "I" frame and consequently starts another GOP.
In reality it's a heck of a lot more complex than that, but that's the basics of video compression. For a more detailed explanation, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_compression

Is it possible to create a control file without the datafiles

Hi All,
Is it possible to create a control file without the datafiles?
on any OS or DB version
regards,
sachin

if I understand properly:
- you have a script to recreate the controlfile
- you have all of your database files backed up except your controlfiles
This should work as this is how we sometimes refresh dev databases:
1) restore the copies of the database files
2) recreate the controlfile
3) recover the database files to the desired point in time (if hot backup or archivelogs are available, otherwise, it would be as of the time of the backup)
4) add temp files to temporary tablespace(s)
The simpler solution would be to backup your controlfile at the same time as your datafiles (RMAN or o/s copy).
I hope I understood your question properly.

Possible to create a JAR file from within a java app?

Is it possible to create a jar file from within a java application?
Can it be done more elegantly than by spawning-off another
process with the Runtime and exec() portions of the api?
Thanks
Scott

Thanks! I was mislead by the API notes for java.util.jar:
The JarOutputStream class is used to write the contents
of a JAR file to any output stream.
I was looking for a class or method to make jar files.
Seems this is it ;)
Thanks
Scott

Possible to create globe [Xresources] file?

Hi there!
I installed arch with standalone openbox WM, plus urxvt terminal emulator. Everything goes well but I want to change font & font size in urxvt, I need to create .Xresources file in my homedir, because "Xresources is a user-level configuration dotfile", as the wiki says. I'm wondering if I can create globe Xresources file for all users on my system, and how?
I'd like to refine common features as much as possible, for all users on my system, e.g, source pkgfile 'command not found' hook, command aliases for common utilities, colored man pages etc.
Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Trilby wrote:
None of the things you mention would actually go in an Xresources file. They'd all go in shell profiles which *can* be system-wide.
Mod note: moving to NC.
I HAVE made global change for /etc/bash.bashrc, to refine common settings for all users, like hook 'command not found'.
Now I'm doing is to create global Xresources for X app parameters, is this possible?

Is it possible to create a vi-file in an .exe file with labview 6.1i? and how to create it?

Hello,
I want to create a vi-file into an exe-file but don't know how to do it with labview 6.1i.
Maybe somebody here can give me hints to do it!
thank you very much!

To build EXEs you need the application builder. To see if you have it, open the tools menu. If you have an option named "Build application or shared library", you're OK. Just open it and you can set up your app there. To run this application, a computer would have to have the LV run-time engine, which can be downloaded from the NI site. For the first time you deploy the app, you should use the app builder to create an installer, which will install the run-time engine as well as your app.
If you don't have it you can purchase it seperately from NI.Message Edited by tst on 03-17-2005 10:42 AM

Make offline files accessible after profile update

Hi altogether,
is there anybody out there who has a deep understanding of the Windows 7 offline files feature? I would really like to know how users are granted access to the offline cache. I found the files in C:\Windows\CSC, but this folder and its subfolders do not
have any ACL structure (just one: Local System). Where are the access permissions stored? And is it possible to adapt this if we change the profile owner?
Here is the background for my question:
We are about to perform a AD migration using the Quest Resource Updating Manager. The offline cache is consisting of system files, that you can just access either taking ownership or using scripts executed as Local System. So the RUM is not possible to grant
the updated profile access to this offline cache and the cache has to be rebuild. We do not want every user to rebuild his offline cache. The problem is mentioned here:
https://support.quest.com/SolutionDetail.aspx?id=SOL9359
Still this is not a Quest only problem.
For Windows XP there exists CSCCMD.exe which is contained in the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tool. These tools are not compatible with newer Windows versions (I installed, had to replace the cscdll.dll and it didn't even recognized that CSC was enabled)
not to talk about 64 bit. Is there any way to imitate CSCCMD.exe /RESID? This article aims in the same direction but concerning another problem:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/977229 . I did not figure out how to solve our problem using the Offline Files WMI Provider.
Here are more information about CSCCMD:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884739
Can anybody help me? I am really curious about this!
Martin

You may try to reset the local offline file cache
on the problematic client computers to check how it works. A corrupted offline file cache may prevent you from accessing the cached files and folders when offline

Is it possible to create a batch file in Mac OS?

In MS-DOS, a batch file is a text file containing a series of commands intended to be executed by the command interpreter. It's very convenient and handy. Is it possible to do the same in Mac OS? I tried the automator of Mac OS and copied the workflow, but it is quite clumzy and painfully slow, and stops working afte a relaunch.

Having come from a Apple ][ & DOS background, it took me a while to learn Automator. It's more graphical so some concepts took a "AHA!" moment. You don't mention what "stops working" but likely it's "just" a step that is missing from your workflow. For example, in one of my workflows, the "AHA!" was realizing I needed to specify a name by "Get Specified Finder Item" before I could work with it.
Perhaps you'd be more comfortable with Applescript, especially if you've done any C or other programming language beyond batch files.
If you're up for it, or if your needs are that complex, you could create shell scripts. In fact, my latest Automator work flow calls a shell script because it's actually the KeePass Windows executable run in Mono. I know I probably could have done the whole thing as a shell script, but Automator was easier and would have been simple if it wasn't for this one shell script.

Possible to create multiple pdf files from links?

In Acrobat X Pro, is there a way to apply the option "create pdf file from link" to several links on the same website at once?.thanks

About the closest you can get is to use the Tools > Document Processing > Web Capture > Append all links on page command, which will traverse the links and append them to your existing PDF that has been captured from a web site.

Is it possible to create soap to file sync/async bridge

Hi All,
I am balakrishna, I have one requirement, at sender side we have ep system and at receiver side having http system. from ep side we are using soap req/res as sync communication. At reciver side we have to use the reciver file adapter as a dummy because receiver file adapter doesn't pick the file from the http links. so, again we have to use the sender file adapter to pick the files (text/excel) from the http links directly using wget os command. how can i implement this scenario using bpm.

Hi,
You will find a sample BPM for sync/async bridge under
SAP BASIS --> http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Patterns --> Integration Process --> BpmPatternSyncAsyncBridge.
Your requirement would be similar to this.

Is it possible to create a multitiered numbered list using specific stiles for each level, such as in MS Word?

I intended to write a long document, with sections and subsections, using Pages. The title of each section / subsection should be numbered, such as:
1. First Title (style: title 1)
text text text
2. Second Title (style: title 1)
more and more text
     2.1 First Subtitle (style: title 2)
          text and text
     2.2 Second Subtitle (style: title 2)
          text text
3. Third title (style: title 1)
even more text, and so on
Is that possible? Is it simple?
Thanks

How to create downloadable vcs file for a single event (not whole calendar)

Is it possible to create a vcs file in ical that, like the reservation made on opentable, can be downloaded and opened in both ical and outlook? I've tried creating an event listing for website visitors to add to their calendar, but some of the outlook users have trouble with the ics file opening as a meeting, not an event, or opening as a complete calendar. Big problem. Any solution?
