<HTML> Listen hear you little piece of unhelpful dipstick, the reason being that every time you log on to email up comes two passwords the one for the email and one for the keyring as the email will not store the emal password for some resson. I have ask the question before in such a short sentence and never been a problem, no wonder there is so much abuse at linux as in the lack of helpful support. Gee you lot are Dipsticks I have errased my email so I will not see the response.

Licensing is very similar. No, it isn't. There are important differences between the GPL and BSD licenses that may or may not make a difference in your particular use case. It is a good idea to understand what they are before you commit to one or the other. The BSD license, which is how PostgreSQL is licensed, is the more permissive of the two. > MySQL offers maybe > better enterprise-class support for those who need it. Nonsense. You can get the same or better support for PostgreSQL. Sun, for example, has offered PostgreSQL support for years and in fact, has (had?) at least one of the core PostgreSQL developers on the payroll. > In any case, Sun > is a significant contributor to both (though it OWNS MySQL)... :) MySQL is full of bugs, doesn't scale, and which of its various forks is going to "win" remains to be seen. Oracle's purchase of Sun only makes the future of MySQL cloudier. Unless you're forced to use MySQL, don't use it. PostgreSQL is a much better choice. -- Regards, Clifford Ilkay Dinamis 1419-3266 Yonge St. Toronto, ON Canada M4N 3P6 <<A href="parse.pl?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fdinamis.com" target=_blank>http://dinamis.com</A>> +1 416-410-3326 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I added the drivers to ubuntu Jaunty using Ndiswrapper. When I run lsusb, I get a USB device that is identified as "Belkin Products", so I guess that Best Buy has some kind of arrangement with Belkin to use their stuff in the Dynex product line. This adaptor and router work somewhat. They advertise an "operating range" of "up to" 1000 ft. In linux, I get an operating range of approximately 35 ft. before the signal strength starts dropping off to nothing. The network is unusable once I get beyond that 35 feet. Under Windows, the operating range is a little better - maybe 50 feet. Is wireless really that bad? Am I doing something wrong? Is there a better option available to me? I'm seriously considering getting the phone company to install an DSL connection in another room in my house so I can use a wired network. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Fairly accurate - except that I question Oracle as being used by "Banks" which have a horrible tendency to be monolithic IBM shops (thus, DB2 if they want a relational database, otherwise IMS). But you missed commenting on Postgres, which is, indeed, a viable replacement for Oracle for many users. It probably can't handle the load that a big Oracle database can, but it can do pretty well everything Oracle can - making it easier to switch databases between the two than between either and MySQL. All accounts suggest that as a web back-end, nothing beats MySQL. -- derek ------------------------------ Message: 7 Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2009 22:39:14 -0300 From: Derek Broughton <<A href="javascript:top.opencompose('derek@pointerstop.ca','','','')">derek@pointerstop.ca</A>> Subject: Re: Keyring To: <A href="javascript:top.opencompose('ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com','','','')">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</A> Message-ID: <<A href="javascript:top.opencompose('2v33h6-vb2.ln1@morgen.pointerstop.ca','','','')">2v33h6-vb2.ln1@morgen.pointerstop.ca</A>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" sg1 wrote: > Can you please tell me how to turn of keyring. > > My last two messages bounced back. No, they didn't. Please don't keep posting the same message to mail lists. Try asking a question in context. "Turn off keyring" not only makes no sense to most of us, it seems downright silly, so why not explain why you think you need to do it. -- derek ------------------------------ Message: 8 Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2009 22:39:51 -0300 From: Derek Broughton <<A href="javascript:top.opencompose('derek@pointerstop.ca','','','')">derek@pointerstop.ca</A>> Subject: Re: Is OpenJDK now the default JDK for ubuntu to replace Sun JDK?

Trust me: fish always operates via ssh. If you _can_ use sftp, do so - always. However, not every ssh implementation provides an sftp server - which is why there's fish. -- derek ------------------------------ -- ubuntu-users mailing list <A href="javascript:top.opencompose('ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com','','','')">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</A> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <A href="https://mail.iinet.net.au/mail/parse.pl?redirect=https%3A%2F%2Flists.ubuntu.com%2Fmailman%2Flistinfo%2Fubuntu-users" target=_blank>https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</A> End of ubuntu-users Digest, Vol 58, Issue 265 ********************************************* ) <BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></A></BLOCKQUOTE></HTML>
