I'm writing a CMS application in PHP and one of the requirements is that it must be able to interface with the customer's Exchange server. I've written up this functionality a few times before and have always used WebDAV to do it, but now I'm leaning away from that. I will be running the site on IIS OR Apache (no preference) on Windows...
I have a client-server app where the client is on a Windows Wobile 6 device, written in C++ and the server is on full Windows and written in C#. Originally, I only needed it to send messages from the client to the server, with the server only ever sending back an acknowledgment that it received the message. Now, I would like to update i...
I'm trying to convince my providers to use ANT instead of Rational Application Development so anyone can recompile, recheck, redeploy the solution anyplace, anytime, anyhow. :P I started a build.xml for a project that generates a JAR file but stopped there and I need real examples to compare notes. My good friends! I don't have anyone c...

I'd like to set up a cheap Linux box as a web server to host a variety of web technologies (PHP & Java EE come to mind, but I'd like to experiment with Ruby or Python in the future as well). I'm fairly versed in setting up Tomcat to run on Linux for serving up Java EE applications, but I'd like to be able to open this server up, even j...
As a programmer I need a place to store my stuff. I've been running a server in my parents closet for a long time, but I recently came across a decent 2U server. I have no experience dealing with hosting companies, beyond the very cheap stuff, and I'm wondering what I should look for in a colo or if I should just keep my closet server. ...
I wonder what type of servers for internal usage you virtualize in the last -say- 6 months. Here's what we got virtual so far: mediawiki bugtracker (mantis) subversion We didn't virtualize spezialized desktop PCs which are running a certain software product, that is only used once in a while. Do you plan to get rid of those old machi...
Hi, we have a lot of users running in different shared and solo-owned repositories in Subversion. As part of our work, we do project-shared code and individual work, and we need to control access, ideally on a group basis. Currenly, we use SVNManager to allow users to manage access and create repositories. However, in order to get tha...
I've just put my new server up on an IP address with a domain pointing to it. I need to be able to remote admin it. I've opened the firewall for Remote Desktop and HTTP traffic. Is this going to be secure enough? I guess I should probably rename the administrator user... ...
Of course I am aware of Ajax, but the problem with Ajax is that the browser should poll the server frequently to find whether there is new data. This increases server load. Is there any better method (even using Ajax) other than polling the server frequently? ...

I am looking for any strategies people use when implementing server applications that service client TCP (or UDP) requests: design patterns, implementation techniques, best practices, etc. Let's assume for the purposes of this question that the requests are relatively long-lived (several minutes) and that the traffic is time sensitive, ...
For the past few weeks, I've been trying to learn about just how email works. I understand the process of a client receiving mail from a server using POP pretty well. I also understand how a client computer can use SMTP to ask an SMTP server to send a message. However, I'm still missing something... The way I understand it, outgoing ...
In the project i am currently working on, we have the need to develop a web chat application, not a very complex chat, just a way to connect two people to talk about a very specific topic, we don't need any kind of authentication for one of the two users, we don't have to support emoticons, avatars, or stuff like that. Some project memb...
So I was listening to the latest Stackoverflow podcast (episode 19), and Jeff and Joel talked a bit about scaling server hardware as a website grows. From what Joel was saying, the first few steps are pretty standard: One server running both the webserver and the database (the current Stackoverflow setup) One webserver and one databas...
I want to build a decently performing, but above all stable Linux system for home server use, on a reasonable budget. Sadly, I have several bad experiences trying to install Linux on recently purchased hardware. Whilst pretty much every component runs on Windows, Linux support is sometimes flaky or just plain nonexistent. Which off-the...
I have windows 2003 terminal servers, multi-core. I'm looking for a way to monitor individual CPU core usage on these servers. It is possible for an end-user to have a run-away process (e.g. Internet Explorer or Outlook). The core for that process may spike to near 100% leaving the other cores 'normal'. Thus, the overall CPU usage o...
