How to add printers with no user interaction in Windows

How to add printers with no user interaction in WindowsView products that this article applies to.Article ID:189105Last Review:January 27, 2005Revision:5.1This article was previously published under Q189105SUMMARY Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003 provide the ability to
install a printer using a command line. This is particularly useful when you
add or remove a printer from a group of users using a login script or a
scheduled event. Although Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Zero
Administration Kit (ZAK) contains tools such as Con2prt.exe, the Con2prt.exe
tool provides the ability to add or delete only network printers. You can also
modify and delete local printers using Windows 2000. The result is that an
administrator can control all aspects of a user's ability to print by having
users run a batch file or logon script. NOTE: Using this command in a login script or a client-launched batch
file requires the client computer to be running Windows 2000 or Windows Server
2003. Because the login script runs on the client computer, a Windows NT 4.0
client is unable to process the command. In addition, these commands
can be run from an administrator's workstation or from a server so that the
printers are push-installed to the client computers without having to go to the
actual computer.

Java Parallel Processing Framework
Topic: Technology 3:10 pm EST, Oct 30, 2005

ava Parallel Processing Framework is a set of tools and APIs to facilitate the parallelization of CPU intensive applications, and distribute their execution over a network of heterogenous nodes.
It is intended to run in clusters and grids.


Features

* an API to delegate the processing of parallelized tasks to local and remote execution services
* a set of APIs and user interface tools to administrate and monitor execution services
* real-time adaptive load balancing capabilities
* scalability up to an arbitrary number of processing nodes
* support for failover and recovery
* limited intrusiveness for existing or legacy code
* fully documented APIs, administration guide and developer guide
* runs on any platform supporting Java 2 Platform Standard Edition 5.0 (J2SE 1.5)

6.5 Monitoring RAID arrays

You can run mdadm as a daemon by using the follow-monitor mode.
If needed, that will make mdadm send email alerts to the system
administrator when arrays encounter errors or fail. Also, follow mode
can be used to trigger contingency commands if a disk fails, like
giving a second chance to a failed disk by removing and reinserting it,
so a non-fatal failure could be automatically solved.
Let's see a basic example.
Running
mdadm --monitor --mail=root@localhost --delay=1800 /dev/md2

should release a mdadm daemon to monitor /dev/md2.
The delay parameter means that polling will be done in intervals of
1800 seconds. Finally, critical events and fatal errors should be
e-mailed to the system manager. That's RAID monitoring made easy.
Finally, the --program or --alert parameters
specify the program to be run whenever an event is detected.
Note that the mdadm daemon will never exit once it decides that
there are arrays to monitor, so it should normally be run in the
background. Remember that your are running a daemon, not a
shell command.
Using mdadm to monitor a RAID array is simple and effective. However,
there are fundamental problems with that kind of monitoring - what
happens, for example, if the mdadm daemon stops? In order to overcome
this problem, one should look towards "real" monitoring
solutions. There is a number of free software, open source, and
commercial solutions available which can be used for Software RAID
monitoring on Linux. A search on
FreshMeat should return a good number of matches.

Slacker or sick?
Topic: Health and Wellness 11:29 am EDT, Oct 29, 2005

The connection between this "off" feeling and possible neural and musculoskeletal injuries may not be immediately apparent to the employee or employer, since actual pain is rare at this early stage of injury. Over months, however, as inflammation worsens, chronic pain will eventually lead workers to seek clinical help.

While some employers might see the cytokine connection as a simple opportunity to slack off work, Barbe disagrees.

"Cytokines are self-protective," she says. "This undefined feeling of malaise may be telling the body to take some time off to heal, before things get worse."

Meanwhile, recent work with another disease strikingly similar to the plague, AIDS, suggests O'Brien was on the right track. HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, tricks the immune system in a similar manner as the plague bacterium, targeting and taking over white blood cells. Virologist Dr. Bill Paxton at the Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center in New York City noticed, "the center had no study of people who were exposed to HIV but who had remained negative." He began testing the blood of high-risk, HIV-negative individuals like Steve Crohn, exposing their blood to three thousand times the amount of HIV normally needed to infect a cell. Steve's blood never became infected. "We thought maybe we had infected the culture with bacteria or whatever," says Paxton. "So we went back to Steve. But it was the same result. We went back again and again. Same result." Paxton began studying Crohn's DNA, and concluded there was some sort of blocking mechanism preventing the virus from binding to his cells. Further research showed that that mechanism was delta 32.

Scientists studying HIV first learned about the gateway-blocking capacity of the CCR5 mutation in 1996. Several drug companies, then, quickly began exploring the possibility of developing pharmaceuticals that would mimic delta 32 by binding to CCR5 and blocking the attachment of HIV. Previous methods of treatment interfered with HIV's ability to replicate after the virus has already entered a cell. This new class of HIV treatment, called early-inhibitor -- or fusion-inhibitor -- drugs seek to prevent the virus from ever attaching at all. These pharmaceuticals are still in relatively early stages of development, but certainly stand as a hopeful new method of approaching HIV treatment

Poptop - Open Source PPTP Server
Topic: Technology 12:53 am EDT, Oct 29, 2005

What is Poptop?
Before Poptop, no solution existed if you wish to connect PPTP clients
to Linux servers. Using Poptop, Linux servers can now function
seamlessly in a PPTP VPN environment. This enables administrators to
leverage the considerable benefits of both Microsoft and Linux operating
systems.

The current release version supports Windows
95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP PPTP clients and Linux PPTP clients.

Poptop is free software, licensed under the
terms of the GNU
GPL.
