Ubuntu :: Send A Large PDF To Someone With Unknown Windows System?
Jan 18, 2011
I have a 58 mg PDF that needs to be sent to a person with Windows. I do not know what special software they have. I only know that I nust send them the file in a way that they can use it. I tried yousendit.com and it tells me I need to install their "yousendit express package". But apperantly it will not run on Linux.

How can I do some socket programming using which I can send some data from a linux system to a windows system and vice versa. Can we do that using the IO:Socket:INET perl module??

I need to send large files from a Linux machine to another using cryptography. The sender machine knows the recipient IP but not vice-versa. I don't need strong cryptography and prefer higher-speed less-secure solutions.
There are no problems with presharing crypto keys but I'd prefer not dealing with SSH users creation.
I think to HTTP PUT over TLS, but I never had experience with it and I prefer to hear which are the possible solutions. I know that it can listen as a daemon but I don't know anything about cryptography. So pipeing with OpenSSL may be a solution.

create a large buffer in my program so that I can send, and then receive on another pc, more than 4096 bytes (this seems to be the default for the serial port). I thought this might work:

I am looking for good free software to send large files to a friend. I have tried Skype, but it was too slow, so I am looking for something that basically only uses the two PCs, some software, and no third party or server. We can figure out our IPs, if that would be a step to eliminating a 3rd party or service.
I have searched the internet for terms like P2P, private P2P, F2F, SFTP, etc., and I'm just more confused! What's free and rocks? It's not for music or multiple users, just for 2 users and big documents.
Software Requirements:
* Secure
* Free or open source
* Both Linux (for me) and Windows versions (for my friend)
* Good GUI, easy to use (no command line)

Is there a file system that both Mac OSX 10.5 and linux can read/write for large files (like 4gb files)? My desktop is Ubuntu and I run most from there, but I want to back up my MacBook and linux box on the same external hard drive. Seems there are some (paid) apps for Mac that will mount NTFS but I'm wondering if there is just a shared files ystem that will work for both.

I am having a bit of a problem with my Ubuntu Server 10.04 install. I think it might be a kernel problem. Basically, what happens is when I copy a large file (a 160GB disk image) to my drive (>60GB) the system consistently crashes after about 60GB of the file is transferred. It doesn't matter if I am sending the file using cifs, or over SSH. Checking syslog (paste dump here), it seems these flush errors always appear shortly before the crash occurs. The destination filesystem is a hardware RAID 10 array with 2TB of space. It is formatted as EXT4.

I am trying to understand a large amount of allocated memory that seems not to be accounted for on my system.I'll say up front that I am discussing memory usage without cache and buffers, 'cause I know that misunderstanding comes up a lot.I am in a KDE 4.3 desktop (Kubuntu 9.10), using a number of java apps like Eclipse that tend to eat up a lot of memory.after a few days, even if I quit most apps, 1 gb of ram remains allocated (out of 2 gb).this appeared excessive, and I took the time to add up all values of the RES column in htop (for all users).the result was about 1/2 gb.am I trying to match the wrong values?or could some memory be allocated and not show up in the process list?this is the output of free
Code:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2055456 1940264 115192 0 123864 702900

I am not fully sure if this belongs more to the networking section or the software. O hope it is related to here enough.
My problem is as the topic says.
My port 80 seems to be already taken. lighttpd fails to start reporting that it cannot bind to port cause its already taken.
The error message itself:
Code:
"Starting web server: lighttpd2010-02-21 07:01:02: (network.c.345) can't bind to port: :: 80 Address already in use failed!"
I am not able to crack this by myself. Ihve tried investigating this by
Code:
lsof -i :80
netstat -ape | grep -v unix
First doesn't show anything second anything abt port 80.
Now hints I can think of. Maybe you have more experience and ideas what I can do and where should I look for the culprit.
I am using debian (unstable) and lighttpd. I even tried rebooting; it says that the port is taken already at the boot sequence (well it starts pretty much at end anyway but the system should be clean).
It seems that it started failing after a major distro update, so maybe there are some conflicts based on ipv6/v4 or something, though I have no idea what it could be. Well my hit for that is the part of error msg "bind to port: :: 80 ". This "::" looks like ipv6 naming convention. Maybe its lighttpd internal.

Recently, I've run into a rather interesting but also quite annoying instance of graphical corruption: a large black rectangle covering all or part of the window various running applications. What makes it interesting is that this graphical corruption only seems to occur in applications that have at least 2 tabs open. I've confirmed that it happens in pidgin, nautilus, gnome-terminal, and gedit; the latter 3 are shown in the attached screenshot.
Clearly, it has something to do with my graphics driver. I'm currently using the open source radeon driver in ubuntu 10.04 with a Radeon 9800XT.

I would like to transfer my music library and movie collection from my Desktop computer running Windows Vista and my laptop running Debian Squeeze. I have the laptop connected via wireless but it's possible to connect the two either directly with a CAT5e cable or through the router. I'm just wondering what the best way to do this would be.

I have a few hundred images of 30000 x 10000 pixels in size. Each image has lots of text (rendered as pixels) on it. I'd like to translate all text to another language. I speak both languages, and it's fine for me to translate each phrase manually. I need an image editor which can open these images quickly (faster than Inkscape, which needs about 60 seconds to open such an image), lets me zoom and rotate by 90 degrees, lets me erase (i.e. change the color of a selected rectangle to solid white), lets me add text, and lets me save the file as quickly as possible. I'd like to minimize the time I have to wait for the software to load, render and save images. Which is the best program for that on Windows? On Linux?

Title sums up my problem. Im running so many processes in Slackware, running KDE. I dont even run that many programs, and already its more than XP has (by a **** load). What is wrong here, and how do i kill a lot of the processes to cut down on my cpu usage by tons and cut down memory usage while still keeping everything the same?
Heres a picture of my system monitor - img651 DOT imageshack DOT us/img651/5994/systemmonitorz.png
I didnt put image tags because its a fullscreen.
The memory rises over time, when I restarted my computer it was up to 500 - 600 mbps. At the minute after its at 360.

I am removing some old graphics from my server and one of the gallery programs have created two enormous directories that I cannot even open with FTP.
I tried to tar each directory and the first came out to about 37gb and the second keeps failing (its bigger one would assume).
How can I archive and split these into smaller files?

Every once in a while on a computer I'm ssh'd into, I will accidentally type "cat largefile.txt" and my screen will start rushing with text for the next 10 minutes. I'm always working in a screen session, so my current solution is to just log out and then log back in, and since it can go 100X faster when I'm logged out, it'll finish in the short time it takes me to type my password in again. Is there a better way? Either involving the fact I'm in a screen session? Or a way to do this within SSH? What doesn't work: detaching from the screen session (doesn't respond until file is done outputting) trying command to move to a different window in the screen session (also doesn't respond) typing ctrl+C to kill cat command (also doesn't respond, probably because the command is done and the buffers just have to catch up).

I'm running Debian Wheezy on a laptop with an i3 380M and 4GB of DDR3 1066 RAM. Whenever I open a relatively large (~80MB) pdf in evince, my system will continue running perfectly fine for a few minutes and then at some point it will just completely freeze up. The mouse cursor doesn't even respond, and I have to do a hard reboot to get the system running again.

I previously had Ubuntu installed on my MBR. I deleted that partition (32 GB), resized my Mac partition back up to (250 GB), and then reduced it to 200 GB and created a new one with 50 GB via BootCamp to install Windows 7 from a DVD that I burnt (I got a Windows executable from MSDNAA that I used with Wine to obtain the ISO image. Insert rant about having to download Windows with a Windows executable here.).
I've tried burning two different DVDs. I used Burn on my Mac to burn a data DVD+R with the HFS+ and Joliet filesystems (I think) and then tried again with the ISO9660 and UDF filesystems. The latter has not shown any signs of working besides mounting on OS X. The first DVD would not boot whenever I held 'C' down at time of boot. So I went into BootCamp and clicked "Start Installation". It restarted my computer and this is where the real confusion comes up. I think that it tried booting via the empty partition. The reason I say this is that there are remnants of GRUB and when I boot, I get a screen that says this: error: unknown filesystemrub rescue>

how big and widespaced the fonts on Clementine playlist are and how good they look on the appmenu (where my mouse pointer is). This is not because Clementine is QT4, I've got the same problem with Chrome, Opera etc. I've been messing with system-settings (KDE settings tool) a day before the fonts become that widespaced in order to make my KDE apps look more native on my GNOME, but I haven't touched the fonts settings there.
