This is a Windows 2003 machine that gets switched on every morning, but no one logs on until some hours later.
I want to use the time in between to run a backup script c:\script\backup.cmd
How can I start this unattended after the machine has come up?
I tried 2 registry keys, but this resulted in the script being run after a user logs...
Some applications have a check button for "start at login"...
How would you implement this?

When using opening multiple files with split windows from the command line, vim likes to state what the file names are, the line count, and the character count, for each file. Then the user is prompted to press enter to continue on to the good stuff.
Is there an setting or switch to disable this? I'm using this for diffing with Tortois...

On a customer machine (WinXP SP2) to which I have no access, I have a Win32 EXE (unmanaged C++) that crashes on startup. I guess the best way to troubleshoot this is to obtain a (mini-)dump and analyze it later with windbg or similar.
Now, I would normally tell the customer to install Debugging Tools for Windows and run
cscript adplus....

I want only one drawer to be open at startup. At the moment, all drawers are open.
The jQuery code

// apply the open class
$('li.drawer:first ul').addClass('open');

Hi,
[UPDATE: I forgot to add that this 30 sec. freezing problem only happens the first time I try to load a file from the server. Subsequent loads are very quick. Maybe some strange reverse DNS lookup? I am hosting on Google's appengine.]

I have been an amateur developer for a long time. I was hooked to computers since the age of 10. I started with windows 3.1 and Qbasic. Few months, I moved to Visual Basic where I developed few applications just for fun. During this time I was always a novice, amateur developer.
Two years ago, I started seriously with Dot Net for windows...
What's a simple way to get a Perl script to run as a daemon in linux?
Currently, this is on CentOS. I'd want it to start up with the system and shutdown with the system, so some /etc/rc.d/init.d integration would also be nice, but I could always add a custom line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local.

I have a terrible Rails test startup time. When running a single functional test that may take 2 seconds to run, the total time from execution to returning to the command line could be up to 10-15 seconds.
There are two gems I know are definitely getting in the way. A Facebook and Flickr gem (Facebooker, Flickraw).

I'm a C/C++ programmer recently working in C#, and i'm trying to do some fancy initialization stuff that I've run into some trouble with.
The best and easiest example i can come up with would be that I want to create an "Eager" Singleton - one that is created immediately at program startup, but without me requiring to go into the main f...
I'm using the function/message to check if the workstation is locked. Now my application is in the startup folder. It has worked without any problems on XP pro, but since I'm using the program on XP home WTSRegisterSessionNotification fails about 50% of the time on startup, but it never fails when the system is already booted up. Any ide...
I have tomcat 6.0.18 running on one server without a problem. With the exact same settings it fails to launch on my colleague's machine. He's even running from the same folder as me (I've stopped my copy while he tries to make it work)
All we get when we fire off tomcat using bin/startup.sh is this:

What exactly makes the JVM (in particular, Sun's implementation) slow to get running compared to other runtimes like CPython? My impression was that it mainly has to do with a boatload of libraries getting loaded whether they're needed or not, but that seems like something that shouldn't take 10 years to fix.
Come to think of it, how do...

I am wondering if anyone has a working startup script (/etc/init.d/varnish) for Varnishd that works on Ubuntu Hardy. It should set a pid file so it can be monitored. I have been looking all over Google but have yet to find something that works without hacking which I don't have time to do for a few days.
