Does anyone have a recommendation for project management software? We don't need anything too fancy - just boiler plate tasks, time lines, Gantt and Pert charts, etc. We would like to put the area on the web with Apache using SSL/TLS and password authentication or client authentication (and an alternate port).

Is there any reason why taskjuggler is not included in openSUSE? I can see a version available in openSUSE Factory but it is not built with latest libs. I have several of my friends asking for Project Management software under openSUSE and I don't know what to advise them.

I'm trying to install Codendi project management software in Ubuntu. this software is recommended to run in lynx by xerox (manufactures of Codendi). Since Ubuntu too is a lynx OS I used that for my installation. My issue is when I try to run the installation script codendi_install.sh the terminal window loads and in few seconds it closes, the script doesn't get executed. when tried from the terminal by navigating to the cdrom, I cant list the files in the CD rom.

+copy from a source dir to a destination dir (1st -> 2nd dir)+del files and folder not found in the source. +Exclude copying files that are already in the destination (if files are same size, then skip)(if files size is different, then overwrite).+Remote folder sync such as ftp, would be nice. In other words something that will synchronize destination dir with the source. I tried a program called lucky backup. Was not impressed.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am looking for an email client with the following specifications. I have trialled most of the commonly recommended clients but have found ongoing irritations that push me to keep looking.
Specifications
1. specific email client, not PIM
2. can run as a portable application or configuration files and mail can be stored remotely
3. minimal or no dependences
4. can scan for viruses
[code]...
Evolution matches 5, 6 and 9. The program is a good general client but slow and glitchy. Can't scan for viruses in emails. Kmail matches 1, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 9. Does most of what I need with the powertools plugin but does not play well with Gnome. The program comes with too many dependencies that makes it very hard to move data around or even use on various machines. The dependence on the akonadi server is quite frustrating and makes this kde application a great product but only really useful on kde. Thunderbird matches 1, 2, 5, 8 and 9. Again reasonably comprehensive but lacks the basic ability to scan incoming emails (filters can pipe incoming data to an external program). The fact that the mail is intrinsically linked with your Mozilla profile makes working with the email file very difficult.
Clawsmail matches 1, 2 (old version), 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 (Windows Port old and not maintained) and 9. Looks good but appears to lack portability and a current windows version. I want to check my mail (predominantly POP accounts), have spam and viruses set aside/deleted/quarantined, have my attachments saved to a directory so my mailbox does not get too big and for the emails and configuration data be stored in a distinct directory that can be readily synchronized between computers. The program should be able to run on Ubuntu and Windows XP/Vista/7, on the same data once the data directories are synchronized. And no, I don't want an Internet based option like gmail or yahoo.
I got a laptop that I'd like to install Ubuntu on (I've done this numerous times before). But this one already has 4 partitions on it, and the Ubuntu installer complained that you can't have more than four. I know you can make a logical or whatever partition that holds others sub-partitions, but I'm not sure the best way to do it without destroying data from the other partitions.
The existing partitions include: a recovery partition, the primary windows partition (large size), a small boot partition, and a special partition for hp software that can run without booting windows. Can I convert the windows partition into a logical partition or something like that which can be divided up, without wiping out the windows files and data there?
And yes I know I can use the wubi installer, but I prefer a more permanent solution (Ubuntu is my primary OS, but I don't want to wipe out Windows at this point).
I have been contemplating switching to Linux for some time now, frankly because I'm tired of the blue screens and viruses, the slow speeds, low customization, new versions of programs coming out after years of waiting, high costs/no sharing. As for Apple, I'm not a fan of Steve Jobs going from share-ware to locked down apps and frankly I despise the whole Apple company for that and its high prices. my first HP ever crashed so coming in is a new Dell with details to follow on it - this particular Dell doesn't fit with my habit of getting everything thats the newest thing out, but its close enough to what I had and was a "fast track" item, meaning built and ready to ship. Also, always owned Dells in the past with no problems.
I use my computer for movies, music, internet, e-mail, the occasional spreadsheet and word document as well as games that perk my interest every once in a while. I heard Ubuntu would be good, with Wine to be able to run the occasional Windows based program correctly. I was looking at a dual setup which I would switch to a single set-up if I became extremely comfortable with Linux.
Something easy to use and preferably with idiot-proof instructions!It's mainly to improve light conditions (as my snake tank is quite dim) but anything that cna edit out certain sounds would be a bonus!

View 2 Replies View Relatedan Ubuntu newbie here looking for advice. Apologies if this is a frequent question. I misplaced my Belkin USB wifi antenna recently -- I'd never gotten it working with Ubuntu as I lacked the original driver CD and hadn't bothered doing the footwork with ndiswrapper (without driver files, as Belkin just gives you an .exe) to get it functional. I'm currently living in a home where I can't be wired directly to the router, so I'm looking for advice on what kind of antenna I should get to replace it. Are there any manufacturers out there that provide Linux drivers out of the box, who make quality hardware?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSystem76 laptop, 10.04, 320GB HDD, VMware with Win7 in one VM; want to use Clonezilla as am using it to back up (bare metal backup image) another older smaller dual-boot Ubuntu/XP machine. This System76 laptop is a work machine that I control; the Win7 VM only does a couple of things but they're necessary for work and I don't want to lose the configuration. The reason for the bare metal backup is so if I have to, I can restore and get back to work - something I've had to do on some previous occasions back when I used Windows. Data is no problem - I back that up separately on an hourly basis.
My question is what FS to use on the backup drive; for instance, for the dual-boot XP/Linux work machine I'm currently backing up, I'm using a 30GB external HDD formatted in FAT32. That's OK because 30GB is below the limit for FAT32. But for the newer laptop I'll need a much bigger backup partition. I chose FAT32 for the old one because I know everything on the computer being backed up, Windows & Linux both, is compatible with it. But what FS should I use to back up the new laptop, considering that I'll be backing up the Win7 VM as well as the main Linux part of the machine? I plan to use a backup partition of about 160GB. Could I format it NTFS and have it work with Ubuntu 10.04? Or, conversely, if I format it EXT, will it back up the Win7 VM OK?
i'm converting from w7 and before doing so made up a list of functions i wanted to be capable of doing in opensuse.i have most of them complete but saved the ones that gave me some problems or simply perplexed me until last.i managed to figure out ps3 media server, but still need to know how to automount my external usb drive upon boot.i have my vnc needs met with x11vnc and no probs there.
but what i'm not sure how to do is to synchronize my files between my three computers as well as how to backup my files to an offsite file service (perhaps datastorageunit). i've considered just using dropbox, which from what i've read will backup to offsite ( i used mozy on w7) as well as sync my files across my lan (goodsync handled my syncing). however, i really dont want to pay $10/mo. for 50gb of storage with dropbox when datastorageunit is only $3/mo for 100gb. datastorage unit says that rsync can be used however, even with the gui (grsync) installed i still couldn't make much head way. id rather not take the lazy/pricier way out with dropbox, but instead learn how to use grsync.

It is an old IBM 300GL from the '90s that is apparently never going to die. But it is noisy and not exactly low powered and has to be on all the time. The only machines that I have presently that can be used as a replacement are full blown AMD 3000 and 6000's, and I hate to waste one of those just to be a firewall. I can find some mini cube systems that are very low powered - some even run on just a wall cube - but can't find one with two ethernet ports, and of course there is no plugin buss on a tiny box.
We are working on a new ERP for the company. This will run in MySQL 5.1.x, the GUI will be Web, the language PHP. This is a big project, is a good option to have the 3 applications in the same server or is better to have Mysql on 1 server and httpd+php on other server?
Speaking that I want to virtualize this app with Xen on Centos 5.5 as Host and the guest's will run Ubuntu.
I was reading a magazine article today which was a discussion of internet detective work for tracking down ip addresses which attempt an ssh login to your machine. I have never really paid much attention to network security since I only run a small home network. I have WPA encryption and a firewall on my router. But while reading this article, I remembered that I myself has seen log files in the past that inidicated someone somewhere had attempted to log into my machine (attempts all failed). This had happened a few times, but I never really considered it a threat.
But, the more I read about home computers becoming "zombies" for criminals, I guess I am getting a little paranoid in my old age, particularly since my wife does quite a bit of business on the net with credit cards. I have four computers connected to the net and each other on this network, and would like to be able to easily detect attempted log ins and deal with them quickly.
So my reason for posting is to ask if someone could recommend a novice-friendly application for monitoring traffic to check this intermittently. I have read bodhi.zazen's excellent tutorial on snort, but I it appears to be written for large lan's or web servers and is over-kill for a small home network.

I'm looking for recommendations for a graphics card that will support dual monitors and runs well under Ubuntu. Would like some decent 3D support.
Looking for a recommendation on database development software. I tried Openoffice Database. The program crashes frequently when establishing relationships. If the data types of the relationship disagree, the program crashes. Also, the screen for establishing relationships is too small. I will probably need about 40 tables, and the Openoffice relationship map can realistically handle only about 12.
Apparently Access is up to the task of the development. Ultimately, I want to convert the developed database into a LAMP Web application. Also, I'm thinking of jobbing out much of the development. Is their an equivalent Linux-based solution, or should I hold my nose and go ahead with Access and Windows?
I was wondering if there is a good program for drawing charts of fx programs. Flow charts, Gannt charts and such.I'm sure I can get openoffice to do it, but somehow I'm not comfortable with drawing anything in that program. I don't really know why. There is a nice program for it in the OpenSuse 11.2 with gnome, but I run KDE4. Is there a good recommendable program for this under KDE4?

What is the best sound card to purchase for a Debian Box that I intend to run 7.1 surround sound with for both movies, as well other multimedia? I may do games on this machine, but that will not be the box's primary purpose. What are the special hardware requirements (if any) that I should be aware of before I make a purchase?

I am searching for a recommendation on a video card replacement for my home server. I currently have a BFG Geforce 7300GT and looking for simpler, less power hungry videocard. It is running slackware 13.1 and XFCE as the DE but I dont normally have the X server running because there is no monitor attached to the machine... Only if I have problems I can hookup a 15" LCD. No hardcore computation, no video/graphics programs, like i said, mostly VNC sessions (if need be) and networked services and mainly used for storage (NFS).
The machine has roughly the following components:
MSI k9n platinum mobo
Athlon 64 x2 CPU
1GB ram
3X 1.5TB SATA2 HDD's

I work for a small retail company which until recently consisted of just one location. This month, we will open two new stores.I have been given the task of setting up a VPN network between the three locations and maintaining it.This network will consist of a main data server on the original location which has four client computers.The second location (another part of town) will have three clients, and the third location will have one client, all connected to the main data server (Retail POS system.) This will be a hardware VPN, with the main data server and all of the client computers running Windows XP.I have been working with the telecom company that is installing the phone system and is providing the routers at each location for the VPN.
I realize that since these are all Windows based machines it is not a Linux question, but I know that many of the experts here maintain Windows machines as well in their work. I am not an IT professional (I am a gemologist), but because I have been a Linux user for most of the last ten years, my boss seems to think I could handle this task so rather than contract this work out, he has asked me to do this. I truly enjoy this type of work, but I am concerned that my lack of knowledge is going to catch up with me, even though I do have a fairly good basic knowledge of Linux networking.
My question is simply this: Can anyone here recommend a good book or online training course which will give me the knowledge I need to maintain this system and trouble shoot it? I have searched online and there are literally hundreds of such books and it is like wading through a swamp. With such a small network, I am sure I can learn what I need, but if someone can recommend a good training/reference book that you have personal knowledge of, I would appreciate the recommendation.
Do any of you have a favorite multifunction printer that you would recommend? I am abt ready to replace an oldie and would like to get something that works well with Linux - esp the scanner.
