You changed the DNS server address on your computer, or was it on the router? Also, did you set it to the raw IP address, or the name? Finally, what OS is your system running?

Do either of them work? If not, have you tried the Microsoft web site for appropriate drivers?

I have to agree with WaltP in his assessment of this question, for both parts. In any case, DO NOT use a \n in a C++ output statement, unless you don't mind it getting mixed up with other output to the same device (such as a terminal or log file). …

There are 32-bit and 64-bit Adobe flash players available for Linux. Which you use depends upon the browser you have installed. On a 64-bit system, you can have a 32-bit Firefox installed, which would require a 32-bit plugin. A 64-bit version of FF or Chrome would require a 64-bit plugin. …

You get errors when you disconnect your cable from an active NIC. What is not to understand? Why the specific error messages are occurring, or that you are getting errors at all?

Show how you think it should be implemented and we will be happy to critique your code. Just don't ask us to do your homework for you... :-(

Man, are we fast! Superluminal (faster than light speed) for sure! :-)

So, to recap, your PC accesses the internet ok, but your PS3 does not? Is your PS3 configured to use 192.168.1.1 as the gatewey? What is it configured to use for the DNS server? Can you change that?

Argh! VAX questions! I haven't had to deal with any of this cruft for over 20 years! If you want, I might still have my system documentation in some boxes hidden in my basement, somewhere... :rolleyes: I think I also have my IBM VM 370 manuals in the same place...

Knoppix is a perfectly fine distribution. If you need help with your Linux wireless cruft, go visit [url]www.linuxwireless.org[/url] - that is where I go when I have to deal with this cruft.

I was in a similar situation some years ago when Verizon in Boston offered me their FIOS (Fiber to the Home) service. Fortunately, they offered a 3 month trial, so I kept my cable service until I was sure that the FIOS service was solid. It was - more so …

In my experience, your basic configuration at process is solid. However, you need to make sure that your web applications are not susceptible to SQL injection attacks. That is likely your most vulnerable point of system compromise.

G6 - smaller screen and less disc space. However, you don't mention what the screen resolution is on either system, nor do you mention the weight. Besides the screen, disc, and weight, these are pretty comparable systems. So, you need to decide what is more important to you. FWIW, my …

Data sent over networks can have this problem, which is why there are macro functions in C that will switch one form to a neutral form (network form), and another which will take a network form number and convert it to local. This needs to be done because you might …

Well, the first error is this, the declaration of BST::InsertRecursive: [icode]BSTNode * BST::InsertRecursive(std::string * str, BSTNode * n)[/icode] in that you are calling it with a const string& (reference), yet the function is defined to tak a non-const string pointer... No go. Realize that C++ is VERY strict in type …

Linux Mint is an Ubuntu/Debian clone. It is reliable, and provides one of the best workstation desktop environments from what I have heard. As far as installing it "around an installed Windows" environment, you should be able to dual boot it with Windows.

What you learn from Linux is almost 1-1 applicable to Unix systems. I would recommend that you use a Red Hat clone such as CentOS or Scientific Linux. That's what I do, and we use RHEL at my company which is one of the biggest mobile phone companies in the …

1. A large transfer like this really stresses a drive. 2. New drives, if they are going to have problems, will exhibit them early in their life cycle, statistically speaking. 3. You probably did not monitor the drive's temperature. My experience is that overheating is the root cause of most …

It is probably hardware related. Replace the mouse. They aren't expensive, although taking it apart and cleaning things (blowing the dust out and such) may help.

Overheating is often the cause of this sort of symptom. What happens if you leave it off for awhile and try to restore the system? Can it boot into safe mode?

What distribution+version of Linux did you install? Each major type has its own package manager that will download and install a package along with any missing dependencies. Also, for an audio/video player for Linux, you will have the best luck with VLC. It handles the widest variety of media formats …

Unless you are committed to Windows and having viruses interfere with your computing life, then wipe the system and install Linux instead... There is a learning curve, but most get past it pretty quickly. There are open source replacements for most Windows software, and there is Wine which will allow …

You need the passphrase to decrypt that file. I don't think there is any practical way to decrypt it otherwise since it uses very strong encryption and it would probably take longer than the universe has left to exist to break it via brute-force methods. Why do you need to …

The first problem is that you are NOT initializing your pointer variables. Set them to 0, explicitly. IE, [code] int main( void ) { // Local Definitions MATRIX *matrix = 0; MATRIX* newMatrix = 0; MATRIX* advMatrix = 0; . . . [/code] It is not worthwhile to look further …

WEP is not secure. You need to use WPA at least. If you want to mask all of your traffic, then subscribe to a VPN service. Then all traffic from your system to the VPN servers and back will be strongly encrypted.

You can start an ISP service small - a late friend of mine did that in his little town in central Massachusetts, where there was no DSL or cable internet - only dial-up. I think he started with a T1 or fractional T3, and worked out something with the local …

My opinion, and that of a lot of others, is forget the pain of DRM. Consider "piracy" as free advertising, make it easy to get your game, and easy to purchase legally. Friends share, and usually buy once they figure out that they like the game. It helps if legitimate …

Line 14: [icode]int n;cin>>n;int x=n/2,y=n%2,d,e,f,sum=0;[/icode] If 'n' evaluates to 0, then n/2 == 0, ditto n%2. BOOM! FPE...

You can change your power settings so that it doesn't sleep when closing the lid. I usually set it that way for when it is plugged into wall power, but you can do it for when it is on battery as well.

You could use message queues, or shared memory. A class static variable or translation unit static variable could also be used. In any case, there are a lot of ways around this barn, and which may be best for you depends upon a lot of factors, including concurrency, efficiency, and …

The full specification for the entire TCP/IP protocol suite takes up almost a linear foot of shelf space, is published by the US Department of Defense, and is called "The DDN Protocol Handbook". The DDN stands for Defense Department Network. Because the covers are white, it is sometimes known as …

This has nothing to do with your code. It is a missing header file, which you need to locate and make sure that the Include directives in your build file are correct so that it can be found.

Well, the way it is written would be, with scoping parens to mimic the actual operator precidence, D = A^4 + (B^6 / 3C) - 2B Are you SURE that is what you intend? Or do you mean D = (A^4 + B^6) / (3C - 2B), or something else?

They will use a keystroke capture program that intercepts all of the keyboard, and probably mouse, events so they can be played back. There are a number of programs available that do this. It should be noted that many viruses and trojan malware programs do this also, so the perpetrator …

To install, after building it, you need to run "make install" as root.

First, understand how recursive-descent parsers work. That is the fundamental method to build a calculator or numerical/mathematical expression evaluator.

This is possible - I do it myself, but you will want to be sure that your user and group ids are the same on both systems. Not the name, but the id number.

The mouse and keyboard should be just fine. The BIOS in all current systems supports USB devices like this without futzing about with drivers and such. Some older operating systems may not like them, but current ones from XP on for Windows, and any but really old Linux operating systems …

If burning at a slower speed doesn't work, then the image file is probably corrupted. If this is a downloaded file, see if there is a check sum (usually md5 or sha1) you can verify with the image you have. If you generated it, what software did you use? Also, …

It depends upon whether you want to create these shapes in a text console/window, or graphically. What is your operating system and desktop environment?

Exactly (re ChrisPadgham) - this is a mathematical proof, and has 0 to do with computer science, other than if you want to express the proof/algorithm as software.

You should be able to tether to a desktop with the phone, just like your laptop. Plug it in to a USB port on the desktop and enable the tethering feature. The desktop should recognize it as a USB broadband modem, and install the correct drivers (Windows), or just work …

What operating system are you running? This would not be too big a problem for Linux. Not sure about Windows, though Windows Server editions should be able to do this - effectively turning your system into a gateway/proxy server.

The second error is just a reference back to the first one. Note that you have not implemented the filefromtree(struct node*) function. Since you are calling it, it has to be implemented, otherwise you get this error, "unresolved external symbol".

Basically what swifttech said. You need to remove the existing partitions so XP can create an NTFS file system on a new partition. You probably have the option to do that when you start the XP installation disc - don't remember for sure because I haven't installed it for at …

One presumes this is a CRT and not a flat panel display? If so, then take it to your local TV repair shop (if you can find one). If it is a CRT, then the symptoms sound like the flyback transformer has gone snafu. FWIW, in the USA you can …

Since it is a pointer, what you are doing is printing the address of the pointer, not the contents. Try "cout << *ptr << endl;" instead.

Simply put, a friend class has access to the private and protected parts of the class that made it a friend. In your case, the queue class can access all the parts of a message, and that includes write access. Be sparing with your use of "friends" - they can …

After re-reading your post, the symptoms you describe make me think that the NIC (network controller) is going bad. If it is a plug-in card, replace it. If it is built into the system motherboard, then you may need to send it in for repairs or replacement. If manually manipulating …

Here are links to commercial products that will let you do this: [url]http://www.paragon-software.com/home/hfs-windows/[/url] or [url]http://www.mediafour.com/[/url] For a free program that can access files on your HFS/HFS+ drive (the formats that Apple uses), try this: [url]http://www.catacombae.org/hfsx.html[/url] FWIW, there are HFS/HFS+ open source drivers for Linux.
