I have liked windirstat for this purpose too. These tools can be a huge time-saver

Just wondering if anyone has ant opinion about Zenoss vs Nagios. I have helped people set up one or the other, but I have not used either of them over time. Zenoss looks like it has a nicer user interface, but it was less intuitive for how it was set up. (I used the NagioSql tool for administering much of Nagios, and that made the setup much nicer)

So there are lots of free tools I use daily :) Many of these are things I would recommend to any/all eriders. [ulist] - truecrypt - keypass - gimp - hamachi - wireshark - vistumbler/netstumbler - freemind - SUPER (erightsoft) - videolan - cygwin - unison - blogdesk - gmer - treepie - camstudio - daemontools [/ulist] What had been on my list is SpyBot

A slightly lower amount of work than the aforementioned LTSP+VideoLan solution, would be to install VNC on the "clients" (so they can still be keyboardless on the client end) and simply click into a full-screen vlc tuned to the multicast every morning. Or put it in the start-up on a Windows box.

One thing I did once along these lines, was to use VideoLan. We had a bunch of Linux clients without keyboards that would boot up into Linux with video-lan loaded. Video-Lan was in multicast mode, and we had three "channels" set up (the various clients would boot into one of the three mulitcast domains). We used powerpoint to generate a slideshow/announcements

Well. It has been a while, and I do not have an empty HD lying around to play with. Can you click on the "create" and then change the size? Otherwise, you may need to go with partition magic, gparted (opensource), or another partition editing tool.
-
Well, there are a few possibilities. With Linux command-line tools (from an Ubuntu or Knoppix boot CD) you can verify the partitioning, zero out what is there, and do some basic reformatting... That is the way I would do it, simply because I trust that stuff more than I do most of these other tools... But, in you prefer Windows solutions... My initial

If you can see it in the drive management, but it is not accessible, then you may simply need to set the drive letter on it. You can do this by right-clicking the partition in the drive manager.

I was noticing that the original post was for a player/recorder for XP, and the majority of the posts were about Linux... ;) So my appologies for bringing it back to XP. Due to a number of reasons, our media computer is a laptop running XP, and we needed something to do our recording/watching on. We found mediaportal, but it did not have drivers for

What you are looking for may be very simple. Something like: #!/usr/bin/perl while (<>) { ($first,$last,$address,$phone)=split /,/; print " \"$last\" , \"$first\" \n"; } Then run the file, sending it your file: cat [filein] | [myprogram] where filein is the name of the file containing your data and myprogram is the name of the program we just created
