How do I transfer the solaris syslogs to another windows server. Please share the source and destination configuration steps in detail.
I'm trying to figure out how to send all information that is normally identified in the /var/adm/message file on a Solaris system to a remote system.
There is no continuous injective function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}^m$ Past participle form of "exit"? Why is it called an “Indian file”? Suppose that a deck of 52 cards containing four aces is shuffled thoroughly and the cards are then distributed among four players so that each player receives 13 cards. Determine the probability that each player will receive one ace.   The answer to this is given as$$\frac{13^4}{\binom {52}4}$$  My doubt is the following:   The book justifies ${\binom {52}{4}}$ as number of possible different combinations of the four positions in the deck occupied by 4 aces. That sounds like a case of arrangements to me, so shouldn't we think about permutations and not combinations if we are concerned about how the aces are to be arranged in the deck ?. Shouldn't the denominator be ${\binom {52}{13}}$ since you are choosing 13 cards for 4 people. 32-Bit UEFI Boot Support I recently purchased a Dell Venue 8 Pro.  I have read online about what it needs in order to boot into Ubuntu or any other Linux distro.  From what I have gathered, what really needs to happen is 32-bit UEFI support.  I got information from several sites, but where it was really summed up was in this previous post:    "Ubuntu has no 32-Bit Uefi installer, ask them to add support, they may listen."  That thread was specifically about getting the Dell Venue 8/11 Pro to boot Linux.  However, there are a slew of new tablets coming out running 32-bit UEFI, and I think this is a trend that is going to continue to grow:  mjg59.dreamwidth.org/26734.html  "UEFI on IA32 isn't going away. It will show up on more embedded systems as time goes on."  Others have tried this before with mixed success, but haven't gotten things to work quite right:    "It doesn’t really work. But it’s interestingly close."  I'm trying to start a thread dedicated thread on 32-Bit UEFI support, because that is the piece that is missing (from what I understand).  I don't really know how to work with this stuff, but I'm hoping that some people who do will read this and either contact canonical or somehow patch Ubuntu (or any other distro, really) to work this way.  Again, I don't really know how to do any of this...I'm just hoping someone can help!  Dell Venue 8, 11 Pro, Toshiba Encore, Acer w3, w4, Lenovo miix, and the asus transformer a100 are all tablets that will be affected by this...I think these are going to be incredibly popular tablets once their prices go down, and I think people are really going to get interested in putting linux on these.  Any help is appreciated, and thank you all so much!  EDIT 4/1/14:  Just booted into Ubuntu on my DV8Pro!  All you have to do is follow the instructions here:    To summarize, what you need to do is download the latest Ubuntu 14 daily build (AMD 64 is what worked for me) and put that on a USB drive via Rufus.  'For “Partition scheme and target system type”, choose “GPT partition scheme for UEFI computer.”' You can get the latest daily build here:   You will need to put the file found below into your EFI/Boot directory:   Disable Secureboot and such--follow the original instructions link if you don't know how.  Then set the USB to boot first in BIOS.  This should get you to GRUB.  The rest I'll quote the original author, it's real straightforward:  In the GRUB menu, highlight “Try Ubuntu”, and press “e” to edit it. In the editing screen, scroll down to the command line options, where it says “quiet splash”. Delete “splash” and replace it with: video=VGA-1:1368x768e reboot=pci,force [EDIT: For those of us using the Dell Venue 8 Pro, you need to use this line instead: video=VGA-1:800x1280e reboot=pci,force That accounts for the different resolution of screen.]  Then press F10 to boot. You should get all the way to the Desktop.  There you have it!  This got me to the Unity Desktop.  Problems:  Wifi is not working, but I used an Ethernet adapter and that seems to work.  I tried rotating the screen, but it throws your touch input off to one side, so I left it.    Make sure to read the tutorial mentioned earlier, it is more comprehensive, even though it is made for the ASUS T100.  If nothing else, the instructions I have provided should be enough just to get you to the Unity Desktop, which for me was amazing!  Hope you too can have the same success and keep building on it!  For what it's worth, someone else did this and posted a youtube video here: A known identity of binomial coefficients is that $$ \sum_i\binom{m}{i}\binom{n}{j-i}=\binom{m+n}{j}. $$ Is there a combinatorial proof/explanation of why it holds? Thanks. Test if there are files matching a pattern in order to execute a script I am trying to write an if statement to test whether there are any files matching a certain pattern. If there is a text file in a directory it should run a given script.  My code currently:  if [ -f /*.txt ]; then ./script fi   Please give some ideas; I only want to run the script if there is a .txt in the directory. Recently I bought a new laptop that came with Windows 10 installed but not activated. I use both Windows 10 and Ubuntu 18.04, so I tried making a dual boot with a USB flash drive. It was recognized by the BIOS, I tried Try Ubuntu without installing and Install Ubuntu. With both options the PC freezes, and I need to press the power button.

I talked to the customer support and they just said that my laptop might not be compatible with Ubuntu. I also tried Ubuntu 16.04, but there were no changes.  EDIT: Thanks a lot for all the answers, but unfortunatelly I returned the PC to the store, neither the technical support found a solution for the problem, they just said: "Our PCs are just able to work with Windows, anyother OS might work but without our warranty". I have an older iPod touch which which supports up to iOS 6.1.6 and nothing newer.  This device is equipped with a Linea Pro barcode scanner and previously had an application called "" installed.  Recently I was attempting to do some work on a web application I wrote and realized that I needed to update to a newer version of Web Barcode - but unfortunately the Apple ID saved on my device was deactivated a few years ago.  So I went to settings and updated it with my current Apple ID.  Then again tried to update the App from the Apple store.  Still no dice - it was asking me for the password on the old account.  So then I figured I'd just remove it and reinstall from scratch.  Deleted the app and went to the store but now I am met with a message that the new version requires at least iOS 8.0.  I feel I followed a very logical series of steps to update this application and while I can understand that I won't be able to install the newest version, how can I get the old version back?  The device is completely useless without the barcode scanning application and the Apple store is now refusing to install any version at all on my device.  What can I do to get the original version of this application reinstalled? Irreducible cyclotomic polynomial Do separate autofocus motors exist for entry level Nikon DSLRs? Changing Network Interfaces name Ubuntu 16.04 I tried to change network interfaces name on this new Ubuntu 16.04 LTS version but doesn't have the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.  So, I tried to use /lib/udev/write_net_rules but it not exist.  Why do I need this modification? Because I'm using a tool to Simulate virtual platforms that use flex licensing and the authentication need to be in eth0 interface name.  Any suggestion?

I've lately become hooked into building computers in Minecraft and today I decided to build a giant hard drive. I've built HDDs before, but not at the scale I'm currently attempting, and I anticipated problems. As I was wiring some pistons, they activated and pushed forward oddly. As far as I can tell, there's nothing powering them.    I thought at first that it might be the redstone torches (top left of above pic) but they aren't powered.   Here's a top view of the same pistons. I also thought the line of redstone above  them might be the problem (middle of above pic), but when I destroy it, the pistons stay extended.  Is there a reason why my pistons are extending? If so, is there a way to get them to power (when I want them to) without disturbing the pistons above? I created the following script:  #!bin/bash cat &gt; Top10 &lt;&lt;EOF Linux Mint 17.2 Ubuntu 15.10 Debian GNU/Linux 8.2 Mageria 5 Fedora 23 openSUSE Leap 42.1 Arch Linux CentOS 7.2-1511 PCLinuxOS 2014.12 Slackware Linux 14.1 FreeBSD EOF sed -ri "s/^[^0-9]*$//" Top10 sed -r "s/(.*)([[:space:]][[:digit:]]*.*)$/\2\1/" Top10 | sed -r "s/([[:space:]])([[:digit:]])/\2/" | sed -r "s/([[:digit:]])([[:alpha:]])/\1 \2/" &gt; Top10 sed -r -i "s/(.*)/\L\1/" Top10 sed -r -i "y/[aeiou]/[AEIOU]/" Top10 sort Top10 -g -o Top10 cat Top10   When I run it a few times the following happens:     As you can see sometimes the Top10 file turns out empty and sometimes it turn out the way I needed it to be. I know that the command which replaces the extensions from the end to the front of a line is done poorly. I ran this script on a VMware virtual machine. Could that be the reason?

What's wrong with "I'll open you the door"? When I call the buzzer outside my girlfriend's flat, she sometimes says *"I'll open you the door". I correct this to "I'll open the door for you".  I've never heard a native speaker say it the first way, which is why I think it's wrong. But I can't explain why.  There is a pattern in lots of English phrases that would suggest both are correct. A few common examples:   Give the keys to me before you go — Give me the keys before you go I'll buy a coffee for you at the cafe — I'll buy you a coffee at the cafe We sent a text to Martin on his birthday — We sent Martin a text on his birthday   The left-hand side is more formal, and the right-hand side is more common in everyday speech.  What do you call this pattern?  What makes the 'open-the-door' sentence an exception? I will give this question a little context. Firstly, as I understand it, as soon as I "close the switch" on a circuit, electric current pretty quickly establishes a steady state where, at any given cross section along a wire, the average kinetic energy of that slice is both constant and equal anywhere along the wire. (Please correct me if I am misunderstanding).   If the average kinetic energy is constant anywhere throughout the wire in the circuit (which confuses me, as I would think that the electrons should all accelerate after exiting the resistor since they are no longer being impeded as much), that means that the average velocity is constant. So, in the example of a simple circuit with a battery of v Volts and a resistor of o Ohms, my question is the following:  Because a 'voltage drop' is known to occur across the resistor, what type energy is being "traded" to generate the heat that radiates from the resistor? I would think that the reflexive answer is "electrical energy"...hence the VOLTAGE drop (the sacrificed energy is clearly not kinetic, as the velocity is constant everywhere). However, I find this confusing. Does this mean that if I had a positive test charge, it would be easier for me to bring it to the beginning of the resistor as compared to bringing it to the end of the resister?     Further, if the correct answer IS "electrical energy", why exactly DOES electrical energy get "dissipated" as the electrons pass through the resistor? I always here the comment Oh! It's because all the electrons are running into densely packed crap which impedes their flow but that to me sounds like a reason for their KINETIC energy to be reduced. However, clearly that's not the case. So, ultimately, I guess the real question is:  **What goes on in the resistor that is literally removing electrical energy **. I am sure that this is a quantum mechanics question, but my quantum mechanics knowledge is not terribly strong. If I could get an answer that is devoid of crazy wave function equations, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks! Dimension of open subsets of $R^n$
