Dell Poweredge R300

Hi all, Just found out that the Poweredge R300 cant even load the CentOS 5.2 64bit installer. Had to revert to Ubuntu. Seems its a driver problem. Pity, but does this kind of case apply to many other servers? --- OSCC MAMPU MyMeeting Version 2.0 Release http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/solution-areas/application/mymeeting

OT: looking for a rsync equivalent for Windows platforms
by Rudi Ahlers 07 Jun '09

07 Jun '09

Hi all, Does anyone know of a good & free rsync type program for Windows platforms? Like most of us, I need to work on both Windows & Linux environments, and would like to sync some data (music, videos, photos, documents, thunderbird profiles, FF bookmarks, etc) between a USB HDD, my Linux (CentOS + KDE) PC, and Windows Laptop at the office. I found a program called Toucan (which also has a portable version) but it doesn't seem to work as well as rsync. When I tell it to "sync (copy)" or "sync (mirror)" file between the USB HDD, or even my Linux PC via the LAN, it copies every single file, every time. So it's not very efficient. Their forums doesn't have much help on this matter, and I just know from experience that help here is much better ;) -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Hosting Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532

[OT] Simple Shell Script (while loop)
by James Bensley 06 Jun '09

06 Jun '09

Hey Guys, I can not find the corrent syntax for what I am trying to acheive with a while loop. Having said that I'm not exactly sure what you would call it so I have been googling with no success probably for that reason. I am just working with some sub directories except there is one I don't want to use so I have a while loop like the following; if we stubmle into the sub directory I wish to leave alone then there is an IF statement and I have used the break command which is wrong, I don't want to end this whole loop I just want to skip onto the next increment of the loop as it were skipping this sub directory. Break is the wrong command but what should it be? Sorry I can't be any clearer but I don't know exactly what you would call this (which is why I am having no success finding it for my self!) #!/bin/bash find ./ -maxdepth 1 -type d | while read FOLDER do if [ $FOLDER == "./not_this_folder_oh_no!" ]; then break fi <otherwise do some magic here> done Many thanks for your time and input.

question on whiptail
by Jerry Geis 06 Jun '09

06 Jun '09

There is a script that uses whiptail command. Is there a way to wrap the script that calls whiptail 4 times and just send a carriage return to each character window that pops up? I want it to basically just accept the default option for each of the four prompted windows. without me hitting return 4 times. How do I do that? I tried unsuccessfully: script_calling_whiptail << EOF \n \n \n \n \n EOF ~ I dont want to change/edit the script as it may change again in the future. Thanks Jerry
