Trying out
While Windows Media Player continues to sneak all this DRM and information-gathering in on you (10 is the worst yet), it has some additional really broken functionality that annoyed the crap out of me today. I couldn’t seem to grab a screenshot of an avi clip I was playing. Media player, Zoom-in, and MS Paint were in cahoots to defeat me, so don’t tell me it’s not intentional. :> Finally “beat the system” with good old Winamp.
Moral: switch to Linux while it’s still legal.
It’s been a while since I’ve added any info about HangTheDJ. It’s been going through a revamp where I’m making user-resizable components out of most of the elements of the GUI. The menu, controls and toolbars are all now hosted in a resizable rebar, ala IE’s toolbar, where you can have multiple resizable toolbars on each row:
Also, the other major components are contained in dockable dialog bars:
There are still a lot of kinks to work out with this rework. Just so you know… 😛 Should have a downloadable version soon…
I am no longer a total Cyrus IMAP newbie. Cyrus IMAP newbies don’t run and administer Cyrus IMAP servers, at least not for long.
That said, I’ve lost a lot of email along the way. This stuff hasn’t been easy or straightforward. That’s mainly due to linux’s modular architecture, which is the only way to go, but it’s a mixed blessing. By the time you really figure out something like Cyrus, you’ll likely have learned a lot about linux’s authentication (PAM), your mail transport agent (MTA – it actually listens for mail and hands it off to Cyrus), other available MTA’s (sendmail, exim, qmail… why are there so many?), PHP and Mysql configuration, and so on.
So I’m not going to try to explain what it takes to get it all working. The main doc that makes that attempt is
I just wanted to document the steps that are needed with postfix and cyrus to get multiple virtual domains handled on one installation. There are two files that need tweaking, /etc/postfix/main.cf, and /etc/imapd.conf.
To do…
