Netcfg v2 works - but I do not know how to do this things

Hello,
I just succesfully installed netcfg v2. I can connect to the wireless network using
netcfg2 home
But I do not know how to do the following thins:
It is mentioned in the wiki, but I do not get what exactly I have to do for this.
I have 2 configuration: Home and Uni
- Can the startup script detect which Networks are available and connect to the available one?
- When I connect to the "Uni" configuration, I need to start vpnc afterwards. Can I somehow automate this?
Thanks!
Nathan

netcfg2 can do 'dumb' detection on boot. Set SCAN="on" in both profiles, and put the profiles in your rc.conf NETWORKS=() line.
It'll check if each network is available, then connect if it is.
There's also an autodetect script in the netcfg2 source, look in the contrib dir in the tarball or git.

    I think your Voice mailbox goes by time, not # messages, so if one or two of the messages is longer, then it would be "full" faster.
    Go to youmail.com and follow the directions to set up youmail.
    Just curious - why do you need to save 20+ messages?  Once I deal with them, I delete them.... and I rarely have more than one or two \saved messages....

  • I would like to restore certain things such as pictures from my oldest backup, but I do not know how to do this.

    Well, I put my whole question into the title. I have one old backup that is about 3.5g and I would like to restore just some on its content and then delete the rest to free up storage. I am a new user of icloud and find it difficult to access my content that is backed up.
    If I restore all 3.5g backup to my iphone won't it create duplicates, restore old settings and configurations, and use up a lot of space. I really don't want any settings or config. to change or revert back to the old back up. I would like to restore photos, notes, voice memos, and videos I created with my iphone camera.

    I wished I had known this before I said yes to using icloud. I guess those things will be lost and gone forever, since I do not want to lose my present settings and data. Also do not want to go through the hassle of backing up present, then resetting phone, then restoring oldest back up, then backing up oldest backup to pc, so I can safely backup selected items to my pc; then reset my phone again to restore latest back up. It would take way too much time and no guarantee.
    I backed up my phone to my pc, but have not checked it yet, so don't know if it worked.
    If I decide to quit using icloud (which will probably happen since backing up to external hard drive allows me to open backups) what will happen to my present data and settings? Will they just remain as they were without icloud, as they were before icloud? I'm scared to just delete it; not knowing what will happen. Also why is icloud now my outgoing mail server, when my web email was before I installed icloud and how do I restore my web email as my outgoing mail server. I am using yahoo/at&t for all my mail.
    What will happen to my contacts, notes, messages, voice memos, calendar info, alerts, etc., on my phone if I delete icloud?

  • HT4623 my iPhone 4 has died, I have not done iCloud backup for ages so this might be the problem but i do not know how to do this without using dead phone!  any assistance is appreciated.

    How do you get your iphone connected to itunes as it is not there on the device menu

    Have you tried resetting your iPhone?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • Flash player installer requests that I close DashboardClient, but I do not know how to do this. How should I proceed with Flash Installation?

    How do you close DashboardClient on a Mac, running OS 10.9.5, when prompted to do so by the Adobe Flash Player Installer?

    Hi,
    Go to /Applications/Utiliites/Activity Monitor and look for the Dashboard Client process.  If Dashboard Client doesn't display select to view 'All Processes' or 'All Processes, Hierarchically'.  Select it and then click the 'Quit Process' button at the top of the Activity Monitor window.

  • I am just trying to restore my photos from my pc to my phone that i have backed up already on my icloud but do not know how to do this?

    I am just trying to restore my photos from my pc to my phone that i have backed up already on my icloud but do not know how to do this on my iphone 6 ios 8.3

    If the iPhone is still working and the photos are in the Camera Roll (i.e., taken on the iPhone) then, when you connect the iPhone to your PC, it should be recognized as a Camera and Windows should start AutoPlay.

  • I recently changed from a pc to a mac book. The major issue I am having right now is getting yahoo to work properly. The major thing is autocomplete does not work and I do not know how to load my contacts to "mail".

    I recently changed from a pc to a mac book. The major issue I am having right now is getting yahoo to work properly. The major thing is autocomplete does not work and I do not know how to load my contacts to "mail". Furthermore, I cannot attach any type of documents to my emails (Yahoo says there is a problem). I suspect there is a setting somewhere, but I don't know where. Javascript is enabled, so I am out of options

    Which os are you using?
    Yahoo issues should be posted in their forums or contact Yahoo tech support.

  • I have downloaded the 30 day free trial using Adobe Download Assistant but I do not know how to open it and start using it.

    I have downloaded the 30 day free trial using Adobe Download Assistant but I do not know how to open it and start using it.

    This was so annoying!! It took me a good couple of hours but i figured it out, you need to do the following: Go to the folder where you saved the download (in my case i saved it in My Downloads) -> click on 'Adobe Photoshop Elements 12' -> click on 'PSE 12' -> click on 'Setup' (select the icon which is a box with a shield) -> follow instructions and....voila! You will need to restart when it suggests so save anything else first, then when it reboots you should see the icon on your desktop....hpe this helps!

  • I just purchase an IPhone5C to upgrade from my IPhone4, but I do not know how to get all of my photos that were on ICloud on my Photo Stream (875 photos), on to my new phone. I thought that since my 5C can see Icloud that all photos would be there...

    I just purchase an IPhone5C to upgrade from my IPhone4, but I do not know how to get all of my photos that were on ICloud on my Photo Stream (875 photos), on to my new phone. I thought that since my 5C can see Icloud that all photos would be there... Can someone help me get the pics from my Iphone4 to the 5C?

    Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there (subject to a 1,000 photo limit) until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
    The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

  • I want to see movies in my HBO app, but when I try, I am told that I have to shut down my HTTP in my wi-fi settings. I do not know how to do this. I am a novice at this.

    I want to see movies in my HBO app. I cannot do so because the message keeps coming up that I must take the HTTP off in my wi-fi settings. I do not know how to find this in those settings. I am a novice at this whole thing, so be patient with my ignorance with techie things.

    There is no HTTP in WiFi settings. Are you talking about an HTTP Proxy server? If so, this may mean that the HBO App does not work correctly if you are using a Proxy server for your internet connection. To see if you are using a proxy go to Settings > Wifi and touch the blue ">" to the right of your network name. This will bring up the network connection details. At the bottom will be information about any Proxy server that you are using.
    What exactly is the error message?

    The memory on my MAC is full. It holds 4GB of RAM of which 79GB are photos. I would like to back up my photos to an external drive but just do not know how. I do not wish to use time machine. How do I back up my photo library, then delete them from my MAC to free up that 79GB? Thank you.

    Hi
    Just to clarify a couple of points in your post.
    RAM (memory) is different from hard drive space. You have 4GB of RAM, but that has no bearing on the amount of drive space you have, of which we know that 79GB are photos.
    If those photos are in iPhoto, you should be able to move the entire iPhoto Library, from the Pictures folder, to your external hard drive. You can just drag and drop. Do not have iPhoto open while you're doing this. Once it's done, you can double-click on the moved iPhoto Library file to associate it with iPhoto, so that the app remembers where the library is for next time.
    One more thing. When you move a file to a different location, and then delete the original, you don't have a backup. You still only have one copy. So if that external drive dies, you will lose all your photos. Time Machine is a very good way to prevent this from happening. You should dedicate a different drive for Time Machine backups.

  • I have a great number of Hi8 video tapes and I would like to burn them onto CDs through MacBook Pro (ME665LL/A), but I do not know how to transfer those footage into Mac. What would you recommend?

    Hello everybody! My question is; my parents and I have a great number of video tapes (Hi8 and mini DV) and since I purchased a MacBook Pro (ME665LL/A) I would like to burn them onto CDs, but I do not know how to transfer those footage into Mac. What would you recommend(it can be a software, a hardware or combination of both)? By the way, I also purchased an external DVD-RW(Asus SDRW-08D2S) separately.

    Just Google "convert hi8 to dvd" and you'll find a number of software/hardware combinations that will allow you to do what you want. One important piece of the puzzle is whether or not you still have access to the video recorder(s) that the movies were shot on.
    Good luck,

  • Want to purchase new mac mini but I do not know how I would install programs from dvd without internal optical drive

    I am planning to purchase new mac mini that just came out today but I do not know how I will be able to install programs or save stuff to disk when there is now internal optical drive.  I know I could purchase an external drive but is that necesary. Thanks.

    If you have access to another Mac with an DVD drive you should be able to share it using Apple's drive sharing feature in the OS or at the very least if you have a firewire cable boot into firewire disk mode...
