I have a script that uses PHPMailer to send out an email. The email is sent with a direct SMTP connection to a remote mail server. The problem is that while everything seems to be okay when I run the script on my local machine, when the script is run on our live site using the same remote SMTP server the email never gets through. What...
I'd like to be able to identify the chipset a particular USB device is using. I know about lsusb (and now /proc/bus/usb/devices), but they don't provide as much information as lspci. Here is an example of how I use lsusb: (laptop:/proc/bus/usb) # lsusb -v -d 050d:805c Bus 001 Device 008: ID 050d:805c Belkin Components Device Descrip...

How can I set Linux environment variables remotely from a Windows application? ...
When I used to write test tools in Windows, I use MFC for creating the front-end GUI. This made development of GUI development very fast, and I always used to concentrate on the back-end. Recently I moved to the console based Linux-world. Where most of the things are just console based. My question: Is there any easy to use equivalent o...

One property i have < property name="log.path" value="/abc/4/5"/ > Problem is that i cannot give absolute path("/abc/1/2/3") as above. i have to give something like "../../../4/5". < property name=...
Hi everyone! I have a wxPython application and I'm using Evince to display the reports it generates. Since I'd like to delete every report after the user has closed the corresponding Evince instance, my application uses a thread that does a subprocess.call() to invoke Evince, and then removes the report when the subprocess terminates. T...

I have a very simple program written in 5 min that opens a sever socket and loops through the request and prints to the screen the bytes sent to it. I then tried to benchmark how many connections I can hammer it with to try to find out how many concurrent users I can support with this program. On another machine (where the network bet...
I'm performing this grep: grep -l "Validation failed" *.dbg This returns a file listing. However, I'm most interested in the times modified of these files. What would the proper command be? Edit: the argument in the title was wrong. ...
Hi, I will maintain a C program which I was told it should only work on Redhat Linux. I want to setup a development environment for it but I'm wondering if Redhat Linux server is free? If it's not free, is there any other free Linux distros can relpace Redhat for me? ...
I have a set of operations that are very expensive but are all pretty much self-contained. Some of them rely on some "global" states or data, but all very much read-only. The operations themselves, I'm fairly certain, can all be done in parallel, but all the operations need to complete before the program progresses past a certain point. ...
I have tried to create a simple program in different languages (C#, Java, C++, PHP) to connect to a server and all behaved in the same way. So I believe this problem is more of a OS level thing. Basically I want the program to connect to the server with a TCP socket and send 1 byte and then close the socket. This needs to done thousands...

I am hoping that someone can point me toward Linux software similar to the Microsoft tools Application Verifier and Driver Verifier. (They are stress testers for Windows applications and drivers, respectively.) Do such things exist for Linux? ...
I am writing an editor which has lot of parameters that could be easily interacted with through text. I find it inconvenient to implement a separate text-editor or lots of UI code for every little parameter. Usual buttons, boxes and gadgets would be burdensome and clumsy. I'd much rather let user interact with those parameters through vi...
Let's say I want to profile usage of a single library which is used in many apps in the system. I'm ok with only statistical profile, not an accurate one (but that one would be nice too). What I do not want to do is to recompile every running program with profiling support. I'd like the profiling information to be dumped either periodic...
I'm working on a big app (ns2) and somewhere someone put an exit(1) in there without any debug or print statements and it is being executed. I don't want to have to manually check every file that calls exit to figure out why the program is exiting. Is is possible to determine where the program exited? This is running on Linux and coded i...
