It sounds like you want a lan but not internet on the xp machine. If so, this is a method for Win10 but would probably work on xp. it allows lan connections but shuts off internet access. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/all/how-to-disconnect-pc-from-internet-but-retain-lan/4eca25dc...

Are these all 64 bit creations?
I see no mention of 32 or 64 bit.

Create an /etc/hosts.BLOCK and an /etc/hosts.UNBLOCK
Run your script(s) to delete the current /etc/hosts and then copy either of the above files to /etc/hosts.

Click on any file in that download dialog box and it will change the name of the file you want to download.
It's how it's meant to work.

I would suggest to not use the download dialog box as a file manager.

Trapster

When you click on a file to download, a window will open and ask if you would like to run, or save, the file. If you choose save, another window will open and ask where and what would you like to name the file. If you click on a file while the second window is open, then the name of the file you wan...

seamonkey -edit is also a wonderful wysiwyg html editor.
I have used it for many years.

Trapster

I presume you mean leafpad, without the capital "L" ?

Trapster

Try:

Code: Select all

nslookup google.com | grep Server

Trapster

Maybe CopyQ

I have no experience with it. Just something I found by searching.

Trapster

Try here?

The title of this topic has changed.
It was pschedule related. (?)
So I assumed his program was not running when entered in pschedule.

Trapster

Try:

Code: Select all

apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E88979FB9B30ACF2

Then:

Code: Select all

apt-get update

I do not us VMs but I do use sshfs with my server.
Does sshfs work with VMs?

I'm not sure about Bionic32 but Vanilla Dpup 32-bit 9.3.x series is the only one I've tried where bluetooth worked "out of the box" on my eeepc 1005HA.

It seems grub.cfg is where this can happen.
It was solved here for booting an os per time of day.

I finally got it.
Could not use current/latest gxmessage due to glibc problems.
I found this site full of series 4 goodies and the gxmessage pet worked right away.

https://ftp.nluug.nl/os/Linux/distr/pup ... ackages-4/

Trapster

This is on my server that is running puppy 4.10.
I just found that gxmessage is linked to xmessage.

I may have to upgrade but I don't think that system likes gtk-3

Code: Select all

xmessage.c,v 1.6 95/01/04 16:29:54 gildea Exp $

Off to google.

Thanks guys!

Trapster

I have output being directed to gxmessage that's longer (height) than the window.
I can't find any info to make the window scroll.

If not, any other simple alternatives?

Trapster

Thanks for looking into it.

Trapster

Very handy!

Can it have .html links in the notes?

Trapster

I don't have a 64 bit machine but there is an AppImage here for Friture.

https://friture.org/download.html

Trapster

I don't know how I missed this one.
This is awesome!
Thank you.

But....lol.....I'd like to insert a column with the city.
Is there any way I can use

Code: Select all

curl ipinfo.io/"IP"/city

in a cell in gnumeric?
Any other method to pull in the city automatically?

Doesn't the rmdir command remove a directory and its contents?

No, only empty directories.
rm -r should remove directories and contents recursively
rm -rf would force the removal but one needs to be careful with that.

Trapster

I'd be more curious on why rm -r is not removing the directories

Trapster

rmdir ?

Try PupControl.

mikewalsh and others. Mike, If you can ftp into your sites, this should work. I just set it up so I could ftp into my website and it works perfectly. I used rclone config and chose the ftp option and it runs thru some questions to set it up. The config settings end up in /root/.config/rclone. The p...
