A bit wide, but legible. The only difference with your original text is that I left the SVNParentPath the same as in my text. At least I hope that's the only difference. If not, tell me. Ernest,

You can also remove the resource fork for any file with the following command: xattr -d com.apple.ResourceFork filename xattr does not have a man page, use xattr --help for more info.

There should be beginning and closing Location tags on either side of the Apache config. The #Require ... for Kerberos should all be one line as well. It is commented out, but mine is actually "Require user eab3 eab3@domain.tld", getting both at once. Feel free to edit these posts to consolidate them and making the config more legible.

We buy a $300 tablet because we need a $300 tablet with a stylus for drawing. But once that tablet occupies your best desktop space, there is no place to use a mouse anymore, and you still need a mouse. Most regular mice don't work very well on top of a tablet for a variety of reasons, and there's no space for using a mouse next to the tablet, and you don't want to stick the tablet in a drawer every time you need to select something from a dropdown, for instance, so all the real tablets come with both a stylus and a mouse. That mouse, unlike regular mice, is designed to work fine on top of the tablet. Until it doesn't work anymore, and that's where my blogpost comes in. Does it make sense now?

why not buy a $300 mouse?

i dont get it…

]]> Comment on Powering up your ReadyNAS NV+ remotely by martin http://ursecta.com/wp/2009/03/powering-up-your-readynas-nv-while-indecent/comment-page-1/#comment-22848 martin Mon, 12 Jul 2010 13:45:04 +0000 http://ursecta.com/wp/?p=212#comment-22848 That's indeed a good tip, Dan. The only problem may be where to get the power. You could take it from the power supply to the web relay which, if you selected the right model, is 5V. But if you power your webrelay from a PoE source, you don't have that. You could also steal power from inside the ReadyNAS. Must be a lot of places you can take 5V in there. But on the whole, I admit it would have been better to use an internal relay or opto coupler. It wouldn't add much to the cost or the effort and reduce the risk to the equipment considerably.

Connect it's NO contacts in parallel to the Power-On switch. The relays' power (5V) comes from outside. So this has two advantages: You can use thousands of feets of controlling cable, because the acting circuit remains inside. The controlling circuit comes from outside and has *no* connections to whatever inside's circuits!!! Alternatively you can use an opto-coupler, with no mechanical parts!
