RMM-like tools for a non-MSP guy

Hi beta, while the web-filtering part is still a little further down the road, why not have a look at our Comodo One product (https://one.comodo.com). Best of all is that it is free.

All,I support a local non-profit in my spare time. I'm trying to find an all-in-one solution to make it easier to provide support for them.I've used Kaseya in past jobs, and I guess I'm looking for something similar. Preferably something cloud based that would just require me to install an agent on the client workstations. I'd prefer to be able to do the following:Remote access for end user support sessionsAntivirusPatch managment (3rd party programs like Flash would be a plus)Web filteringAre there any products available that can do all these things for a small fee per agent (would be looking at around 50 workstations total)? Like I said, I do this in my spare time, so I'm not a full-fledged MSP. But, if there is a product out there, that would make support easier, I think I could convince them to sign up for it.Any thoughts?

Javadoc like tool for PL SQL

Hi ,
Is there any document generator tool for PL/SQL.
Thanks in advance.

Is anyone currently using NaturalDocs for PL/SQL documentation?
http://www.naturaldocs.org/
It seems to be about the only project out there that is still being maintained and expanded. The downside is that NaturalDocs does not currently read javadoc-type comments for PL/SQL code (looks like a long while before it will), rather you need use the NaturalDoc-style of comments.
However the resulting documentation is quite nice looking (compared to pldoc):
http://www.naturaldocs.org/documentation/html/files/NaturalDocs-.html
Some larger projects such as OpenLayers use this:
http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.7/doc/apidocs/files/OpenLayers-js.html
but nothing I could find anywhere actually showed PL/SQL code in the documentation.
Thanks,
Paul

Any diff-like tools for comparing two .vcf (vcard) files?

Hi all,
I'm used to keeping contact information backups in .csv form, its just much simpler to parse with sed/awk etc., I have a small home-cooked script to move fields around between Evolution .csv files and JPilot .csv files such that they match (brittle, but worked for me).
Current Evolution doesn't seem to support csv output anymore, though, and to be honest the brittle-ness of having to hard-code in my scripts which column in the csv was what data always stung a bit. Evolution DOES output vcards, as does J-Pilot. Unfortunately, parsing vcards with sed/awk and the like promises to be real headache-inducing.
Basically, has anyone heard of tools for comparing .vcf files? Sort of like diff (which works line-by-line on text) but working element by element on .vcf files.

Was afraid the answer was gonna be that.

Config Lab tool for Oracle CC&B Package

Hi,
Is there any configlab tool for Oracle CC&B package for confifuration management accross different environments. we can use VSS as version management for java codes and cobol codes in CC&B. But i am unable to identify any config lab tool for configuration management.
Guys please help me out in this.
Thanks and Regards
sayantan

Sayantan,
There is (unfortunately) no silver bullet for your requirement.
Here is a good blog article on the different options available.
https://blogs.oracle.com/theshortenspot/entry/configlab_versus_bundling_vers
Implementations use variations and combinations of the 3 tools that are available, coupled with 3rd party migration tools (like vss). The strategy for an implementation's development-to-production life cycle will vary based on a multitude of factors. Skill set of the IT shop, what tools they are used to, internal audit procedures, etc.
Hope the article provides some food for thought!

It sounds like you are talking about the cloning tool?
Tool looks like this:
Then when selected you can change the size of the brush and using Alt (windows) and Command (Mac) to select your region you want to copy then start to create you cloned image.
Hope this helps?

Have just installed Mavericks and restarted the MacBook Pro. That was 3 hours ago and after logging in, I got my wallpaper and dock, but none of my desktop icons, just the spinning coloured wheel. It's been like that for 2 hours. Is this normal? What should I do, please?
I tried holding the on/off switch down to make it shut down, but when I turned it back on again, the same thing happened and none of the keys etc makes any difference.
HELP!!!! Please.

No, what you're experiencing is not normal.
Try booting whilst holding down the Shift key - this will allow you to boot into Safe Mode, disabling third-party kernel extensions, etc. Your Mac will be slow to boot and will operate sluggishly. That's normal. If you can get in using Safe Mode then you have some start-up item that doesn't play well with Mavericks.

Is there a tool that works like 'Liquify' for Photoshop Touch on Ipad

I always use photoshop on my PC and i am thinking of getting an IPAD.
Photoshop Touch looks good but there a few tools that i cant find much info about online, so please help of you can.
I would like to use it for fashion and beauty images so i need to do the following things......
Make bodies slimmer/wider (i usually use liquify/bloat/shrink for this, im worried that if i use 'warp' it will look gimmiky and too extreme but i still want it to look quite natural.
Make skin texture smoother manually (like blur tool)
Make eyes and teeth whiter manually (to look natural not gimmiky)
Please help if you can and let me know what tools i can use for this in Photoshop Touch on IPAD.
Thankyou

There is a blur tool in PS Touch. You can also use the dodge or burn effect via the paint tool. (Instead of painting with a color, you "paint" the effect, which can be customized to your liking. In addition to dodge/burn, there are also a bevy of other adjustments and effects to paint with, like saturation and brightness.)
There is a warp tool. Not sure if it would be the right tool for the job but it doesn't seem gimmicky to me from what I've tried (mostly corrections in perspective).
If you know anyone with an iPad or Android tablet and they have PS Touch, ask to see it.

We have a tool profiler in sqlserver,we need the tool which works like profiler...
Regards,

You can enable tracing at multiple levels using the DBMS_MONITOR package. The following link shows how to enable session tracing: [Application Tracing Tools|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/sqltrace.htm#CHDFCGAE]
You can then use a tool like TKPROF or TRCSESS to aggregate the trace data into more readable files for analysis.
HTH!

I installed Adobe Web and Design Preium CS6 on windows 8.1, but when I open the program the size of the menus and tools are so tiny. It is not like that for Acrobat, but all the other programs. Is there a fix for this?

Thanks for the help. I installed CC and it fixed everything but Photoshop. I guess I will have to use my old laptop for images until Adobe fixes the problem. Do you know of a place where we can send issues like these to Adobe?

Any RunningApplications-like function for non-windowed processes?

Am I missing any RunningApplications-like function for non-windowed processes like Unix executables? To start with I'd settle for processes in user-space but would ultimately like to list processes like Activity Monitor does. Even comparing RunningApplications results to user space Activity Monitor results will show the difference.
As far as I can tell you need to go all the way down to kauth and kernel space to watch for non-windowed processes being launched. Is there somethig in-between I'm missing? A notification device about launching apps would be perfect if it cover all processes.
Thanks,
=Tod

I think kqueue may be able to do what you want. Look at the EVFILT_PROC filter. You may have to watch a number of processes - perhaps all of them. But that would tell you any time you get a fork and whenever a process is reaped.
I looked at kqueue at it does what I want but you need to register it on a by process/file basis which is great for a very specific set of things but not for overall system watching. (I also looked at fsevents but it is designed as a post-event notification system.) While NSWorkspace has the usual Cocoa model notifcation willlaunchApp, didlaunchApp, etc it seems that you need to get the kernel to watch the launch lifecycle of non-windowed functions.
I actually did manage to get a comprehensive list of running apps out of parsing sysctl output with much less trouble than I expected. So far I have managed to get the pid, uid and abbreviated processname and the list seems to match the Activity Monitor list - at least at this testing printf stage. Getting the username from uid should be trivial and the full file name is doable it just requires some struct length and offset math. I'd like the launch path information but I can live without it for monitoring purposes if I can't figure out how to get it.
This means that the monitoring part of the running system seems relatively straight forward - wrapping the call in an NSTimer and watching for changes in the returned results. But the watching of the actual starting and stopping of all processes remains some deeper work.
Thanks for all the suggestions,

Free, Online Tools for MSPs

Evernote I use for storing things. Some of which probably shouldn't be stored, but as I don't make it obvious what they're about it would be pretty useless for anyone.
I use teamviewer at home, meant I could update my desktop pc from my parents when I spent 4 months there recovering from my op. I also use it to help friends and relatives remotely. It isn't used at work.
Don't use any of the rest.

I'm looking to pull together a master list of free online tools that can help MSPs succeed. So far, I have come up with this list...
Evernote
Sidekick by HubSpot
Google Keep
Charlie
Canva
Password Safe
Have any of you had experience with these tools? Can you think of any others?

Error during DatabaseCopy using SAP tools for SQL Server (v7.12)

I'm trying to perform a system copy from PRD to QAS. The database has been mounted to QAS via detach and attach method. I did a DBCC on the database and everything looks OK. I'm running SAPINST (SAP Tools for MSSQL) and selecting the Database Copy option. The source database has a schema of DBO. Both PRD and QAS are running SAP 4.7/Basis 620. The target schema is QAS. SAPINST fails in step 2 (Define Params) with:
"This service cannot be used for a system with SAP ABAP release 620"
Is this message misleading? Has anyone receive this message before.
UPDATE:
I donwloaded the latest version of SAP Tools for MSSQL and now it failes during the execution phase on step, "Convert DB objects to new schema".
Here is the log:
