jcater: it's definitely worth looking at. Are there design documents attached to it? The idea is that if it provides a good enough framework for us to start with, we'll be more than happy to work on it too. Action: dsmith isn't up on ldap, but wan't to be frayed: the schema files exist :) does that count? actually, derek has done most of the stuff in there he is swamped at work being the beginning of the year it's not too huge so he's hard to catch even I can grokk the schema ;) small business doesn't need much. :) but you won't hurt our feelings if it isn't far enough along :) I'll beat on it tonight for awhile then and see what I come up with. I was going to work on a personal finance app with GNUe. ooooooo I've wanted to do that jcater: all that matters is that the schema is "good enough" for us. :) Im working on a rental property management app myself well jcater: I would *so* like to get rid of Quicken right now. I watched my wife rdp into the windows box to use IE to play games. haven't touched it since november but I *am* working on it, darn it! Action: jcater keeps telling myself that suuure ;) crap, what am I supposed to use from cvs to run a .gpd file? gnue-navigator Action: frayed hasn't bothered creating a database yet, so is expecting to fail. :) though you can run the forms files directly command not found err gncvs? ooooo are you running against cvs head? DB000: gnue.common.GParser.MarkupError: Error processing tag [I do not recognize the "description" attribute yes? :) gnue-sb hasn't been upgraded to the new API why... I'm not sure but it is still running against the releases ah yes, must produce patches for 0.4.x & wxpython 2.4 aha. Maybe I should back off versions a bit anyway. Designer is very unstable under the new API, but I don't know if it's just generally unstable or not. jcater: when do you think wx 2.4 might be required for designer? 0.6.x ? ajmitch: read the channel topic hmm, right ajmitch: probably I suppose I should update or back off. heh. good to see someone's been working (unlike me) :) frayed: yeah, cvs is really being pounded on so for a little while, it may not be ideal for general usage :) how are the other modules for wx 2.4 compatibility right now? the 'compatibility' is a one liner or so ;P afaik, all the other tools were fine ok. is there an easy way uninstall the cvs copy I installed, in order to downgrade to the latest stable releases? jcater: frayed even volunteered to help with docs! :) has there been any commits to cvs cause I don't think I have gotten a commit email in a while and I am wondering what's up with my setup chillywilly: yes, at least 2 today hmmm frayed: no need to uninstall http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/gnue-dev/2002-11/msg00033.html btw, gnu.org NEEDS to set up apache mod_rewrites to automatically forward old-style mailing list URLs to the new style this is getting ridiculous frayed: add to that list cd common cvs update -r common-0-4-1-branch Action: jcater forgot that in this particular email I've got you. Are those the only 3 components I need to worry about? I'm still a little fuzzy on the architecture... yeah hmmm, I think I forgot to run fetchmail after my server reboot er, the last one woah getting butt loads of email lemme guess, you're running an NT server? Action: ajmitch claps Action: frayed dodges lol frayed: uh, no frayed: so where are you based? Debian GNU/Linux testing seattle (in the backyard of the beast) ah lucky fella frayed: I was rebooting it to make sure some things were setup correctly cause, unlike NT, the only reason my server went down was a hardware failure heh, there's not as much Microsoft sentiments around here as I thought there'd be. But people are genuinely afraid not to run MS software. chillywilly: aha, I get you. For a new guy like me, though, the two sentences sounded, well... I had to make sure GRUB was installed correctly ;) and that the network interfaces would come up on boot up well I suppose I didn't HAVE to but I did anyway you know, I've never gotten GRUB to work, for some reason. nor have I hey dude, the reason GNU/LInux servers last so damn long is because we double-check our work. :) I always decide, "eh, lilo works..." I install it form a boot disk usually from grub boot floppy that reminds me, i have to disable the default route on eth0 coming up at bootup :) I've been pretty happy with lilo, but I'm interested in that HURD kernel, and I understand lilo won't boot it. it is quirky though had a power cut today :( Action: ajmitch boots his gnu/hurd box beside him... The experience of Napster shows that we should also permit noncommercial verbatim redistribution to the general public -- when so many of the public want to copy and share, and find it so useful, only draconian measures will stop them, and the public deserves to get what it wants. -- RMS, "Misinterpreting Copyright" ;P I need more donuts -- jcater :-D Don't make me troutslap you -- chillywilly Mmmmm. Pizza. -- derek --- Derek ;P heh, I just wrote a music license the other day. lemme see..... ok, time for me to reply to bug report, tell jbailey to upgrade to 0.4.3 :) Goats! -- jamest Mmmmm.

DB000: gnue.common.GParser.MarkupError: Error processing tag [I do not recognize the "description" attribute lovely running what? same error. gnue-sb I'd recommand not using the gpd and using the gfd's by themselves :) frayed: no, what were you using to load it? I better go to bed heh, night jcater I just did the instructions in the post that jcater had me read gnue-navigator ok night jcater heh, funny story.... last night at about 11:00 my time I feel like it should be 4:00 am or so so I go to bed only to realize that it is 4:00 am or so my son, before I got home had changed my KClock to use Moscow time hehe and that's the only clock in my office :) so I am really tired tonight :) looks like you need an atomic clock frayed: it updates the time nightly against the naval time service so I usually trust it he just changed my displayed timezone :) jcater (~jason@cpe-066-061-083-220.midsouth.rr.com) left irc: "sleep" every reason to. :) The advantage to these atomic clocks they sell is that you can hang them on the wall out of kids' reach too slow, I was that is funny what's a .gsd file, and what do I do with it? it's xml markup schema file ideally you should translate it to sql with the gnue tools for whatever database you're gonna use however, I am not sure that is working right now I discovered that much. There's an Oracle and Postgres .sql file for creating the database, but no MySQL file probably cause mysql isn't too popular around these parts ;) in gnue/common/utils there some scripts we're talking about databases not toys be nice ajmitch ;) yeah, well, my real database doesn't work. ;) trouble getting Postgres to start, which was my first choice. Since MySQL started, I'm using it right now. when/if we do this, we'll likely setup a dedicated database server with Postgres, because my partner doesn't like MySQL either frayed: * ~/bin/gcvs ~/cvs/gnue/common/src/schema/scripter/Scripter.py schema.gsd postgresql > PgSQL/schema.sql is how to make sql presumable I change "postgresql" to "mysql"? steptoe (~notreally@ip68-99-239-155.ph.ph.cox.net) joined #gnuenterprise. steptoe (~notreally@ip68-99-239-155.ph.ph.cox.net) left irc: Client Quit frayed: nooooooooo ;) I think I'm on to what's wrong with my postgres installation. Might have it running pretty soon... SachaS (~Sacha@dialup-196-198.wasp.net.au) joined #gnuenterprise. I just discovered that if I ssh into another machine and run an X app, the GUI appears on the machine I'm sitting at. Forgive me for sounding green, but I didn't know about that... yeah, that's a small useful feature :) if you have a fast connection, only LAN :) more so if it's on the local network otherwise its (X) verrrry slow vnc is usable over 128kbps line :) even usable on 56k :) ok, I've got postgres running now. I believe it will continue to run even if I reboot, but I'm not going to reboot to test it. :P are you making fun of me? cause if you are you will be beaten senseless by fishies no. Well, yes. But also because my server doesn't boot reliably the first time. I think there's some bad memory in it, and I haven't fixed it. every couple of weeks it kernel panics for no reason.... I'm starting to feel like an NT administrator again. :( you need to get some freakin' ram are you waiting for an invitation?!? ;) I did, and that's the problem. I think the motherboard itself is broke and will only let me use one stick, and one specific stick in one specific slot But if I do that, then I can only have 32MB. blah rofl this weightloss infomercial came on and this lady is supposed to be a weightloss expert and she's like a big fat thing wtf expected. After having kids I noticed that everyone around me that didn't have kids were experts on how to take care of them. true dat when my wife and I were split up, all the single men around me were experts on how to handle a marriage and get laid. oh yeah, and for some reason, BSA accountants and managers are experts on how to build and administer servers. Riddle me that one. er, BSA = BA hehe Action: chillywilly was thinking "bullshit artists" dsmith (dsmith@oh-strongsvillecadent1-1c-203.clvhoh.adelphia.net) left irc: Remote closed the connection heh, that's what my sister calls 'em. She's a chemist, but the accountants and managers at her company seem to know everything about the scientific method. man I am kinda tired HEH check your locale setting, dude... most managers and suits are incompetent I know what time it is 1am is not. It's 11pm. no it's 1am CST damnit ;) is 8pm if I edit my postgres pg_hba file, do I have to restart the server? (I know that sounds dumb, but you don't have to restart samba...) yes you do can't recall, i usually did :) so samba unnecessarily reads the config file everytime it does something? aha, do a kill-HUP to it, or run pg_ctl reload bye or /etc/ini.d/postgresql restart inti.d SachaS (~Sacha@dialup-196-198.wasp.net.au) left #gnuenterprise ("Client Exiting"). no, it just reads it every minute, I believe. Remember, they're trying to make it act like an NT server. blah init.d!!! whew that's is so lame NT admins are that lazy? no, NT admins reboot everytime they open the command line. The idea is that it does unnecessary work. ;) yaaay I wanna read the config file every second hell I wanna rrad it so often that I never actually finish reading it it needs to be in a perpetual state of startup that would r0x0r I had an app that did that. Ran it on an old UNICOS system, when the system was brand new. couldn't figure out how to kill it, so I logged out. Next day I had an email from the administrator saying "do it again and your account will be terminated" I decided not to write back and say "That was a feature, not a bug" hmmm, how about "STFU" hmm, almost time for bed too bad no one will play tetrinet with me :( bastids reinhard (~reinhard@M689P002.adsl.highway.telekom.at) joined #gnuenterprise. btami (~tamas@ip102-205.ktv.tiszanet.hu) joined #gnuenterprise. ajmitch_ (~ajmitch@wlg1-port19.jetstart.maxnet.co.nz) joined #gnuenterprise. good morning good evening ugh how goes frayed? aking progress, if I can just figure out how to get postgres to let me connect to it you setup your pg_hba.conf yet? that's what I'm working on right now. host all 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 password password authentication for all private IPs? hmmm yeah, wireless NAT router ah right I am just thinking whether you need to specify the bits then you need a password file Action: ajmitch_ used to have similar, with this: erm, or add the person to pg_password host all 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 password passwords the admin guide is helpful chillywilly: that can be the password file, yes well I use the db...dunno if that's sick and twisted or what frayed: look at jcater's msg in gnue list 2003.01.13 sigh, helping someone setup their deadrat install Connecting to PostgreSQL without TCP/IP yea, that only helps if it's the sam machine right? Action: chillywilly tries to remember what jcater wrote um, I want to connect with TCP/IP, because I will have at least one client on d'WAN ok, sorry Action: chillywilly installs postgres real quick ajmitch (~ajmitch@wlg1-port35.jetstart.maxnet.co.nz) left irc: Killed (NickServ (Ghost: ajmitch_!~ajmitch@wlg1-port19.jetstart.maxnet.co.nz)) Nick change: ajmitch_ -> ajmitch Action: chillywilly wonders why postgres packages depend on python chillywilly: you can use python as a language with it funky I didn't know it had 'native' python support read the docs some day :) i found out a couple of weeks ago shut the hell up ajmitch fine I read the whole frellin admin guide last week or so I changed it to "trust" just to see if it would work, and it still didn't connect. Hmm........ so lick me is it running with -i? to enable tcp/ip umm........ there's an option somewhere in one of the configs lemme see if I can find it real quick tcpip_socket = 1 no? in postgresql,conf .conf hm, added it to the command line, still no turn it on in the config file still no, but the config file had every line commented. So much for default installation, eh? yea debian default turns tcp/ip on do you have a /var/log/postgresql.log file? there's a postgresql directory there, but I have to su to get to it. Just did that and waiting for authentication (doesn't normally take this long...) I lied, it's a text file, it's just empty no log there hmmm Action: ajmitch sobs can you connect locally? what's wrong ajmitch? can connect locally chillywilly: trying to help grandmother save scanned photos in jpeg format, she's using win95 & some obscure software :) can you telnet to port 5432? on the db server ajmitch: ok ;) ajmitch: sounds like fun ;P crap, I forget how to specify a port with telnet. what does netstat -l on the db server say? telnet host 5432 [dave@random dave]$ telnet benedict 5432 Trying 192.168.0.2... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused frayed: does postmaster run with -i option?

I went digging in the postgres docs to figure out how to make the database files psql -h host template1 psql: FATAL 1: user "dave" does not exist you have to give it a valid user pg_ctl restart -D /var/postgres -o '-i' also ;) and unless you added one that was the command line that finally got it to do this. :) postgres is th eonly user I thought I'd added one. I just want the administrative console, that's all. heh. login as pstgres psql -U postgres -h host template1 IIRC something like that, I got it yaaaay *phew* now I should create a user and grant him rights to some database, right? :) sure got that done. phew, this thing's picky isn't it? won't take a password wrapped in double quotes, has to be single quotes yea this is cool. thanks a lot dude, it's running. now I don't have to worry about making the schema for gnue-sb in mysql. :) :) now the rest of the fellas won't give you a hard time ;) do these schema files typically make the database too, or do I create the database first and then run it? ummmm Action: frayed is relieved not to get a hard time over a stinkin' testbed database server. pretty sure you need to have a db then you can do a psql < file.sql or whatnot the schema is just tables and such...erm AFAIK maybe there's syntax for creating a db, but I dunno not that I recall Action: chillywilly gets off his lazy a$$ and looks silly open office files I think not, since postgres won't let you login without specifying a db there's an OOo document that explains the format right but you can alway connect to temaplate one and still issues create database foo; but I don't think the schema stuff covers creating a db well, I did it. I wonder exactly what it did now..... :) you loaded an sql file? btw, GNUe Integrator should handle doing this kinda stuff eventually but that's not being developed currently I loaded the schema.sql file for gnue-sb also converting between formats and priming the pump with data ok try the forms? are there forms? all the tables are there. :) This is beautiful. it's been a while since I looked at it there are forms, but first I have to create the connection. ;) right in connections.conf I'm starting to understand why it was always so hard to get nt admins to evaluate the software I used to sell them. heh. also designer will do db intrspection and lket you build forms on an exisitng database erm, if you cna parse that ;) i grokked it. :) existing db and their tables why was it hard to get nt admins to evaluate software? btw, you could alos write a script that connects, creates a db, and then load the sql file we have examples like that in cvs all over the place it was hard because they had to setup a database first, and frequently had to install the server software. It was the nature of the stuff I was selling. HEH Lord forbid they should have to do that! ;) where's the setup.exe?!? omg!!! no shit. of course, if the software had been good software, it would've been ODBC compliant and allowed them to just point it at an access db. the world is coming to and end!!! aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! true dat um, how do I make a connection to point at my postgres installation now? :) hmm.... I'm probly missing a python module or 3, come to think of it. where do you have gnue installed? /usr/local/gnue ? yeah go into the etc subdir at that spot edit connections.conf did that, and hacked in. um, here's the error message I've got right now. Error: No database driver found for provider type 'psycopg' :) install psycopg :) python mod that's what I was just thinking..... :) like you said ;) or use another one psycopg is good erm with one catch i think a certain version doesn't work like the lastest one Action: chillywilly wishes jcater were here possibly mandrake doesn't have that one yet it broke in debian sid ah well, I'll try it and see what happens. um, i just downloaded the tarball..... (unstable development debian) no rpm? didn't even look. maybe I should..... I thought mandrake had the wonderful urpmi ;P apt-like package thing mandrake does, and it's wonderful up to a certain point. Action: chillywilly hugs apt-get we are also debian "promoters" here....but it's not to support and have someone using a different distros I'm ready to throw in mandrake and run debian, actually. I just don' t have the time to do it. :( hehe ok, I went and ran drakconf, which is actually a sweet little program. Action: chillywilly looks at ajmitch and thinks back to the days when he used to run mandrake Action: ajmitch luvs mandrake! riiiiight ;) Action: ajmitch rm -rf's debian ajmitch: you know more about debian than I now being a mad packaging fewl heh Action: ajmitch tired drakconf didn't get cool until 9.0, and it still bugs in a few spots.... are you looking for a deb? did you install 0.4.x tarball of gnue? erm, rpm I mean me? no. I think I screwed up well, originally. Then I had to install the cvs to get it working with wxPython 2.4. Then I backed it off to the 0.4.x from cvs when jcater told me to earlier. :) oh yea that makes sense or rather, he said there's been patches applied to 0.4.x so it works with wxPython 2.4 yea there was an 'import string' that was forgotten in the designer code that's the big PATCH ;) wxpython used to import it ina certain place luckily for me there's no PostgreSQL headers on the system, and no PostgreSQL headers package. so no one noticed until now get the -devel package? not one, or if there is, it isn't installed. *think think* you can install just the headers from the postgre tarball, right? erm, I mean go get it man! ;P Action: frayed thinks he read that a few minutes ago -devel rpms are the safest I just looked for it I'm taking another look, though *phew* ok, the devel package is already installed. I'm glad that's settled. hmmm Action: frayed laughs I just need to find the headers, I can pass it to the configure script when I know where they are :) I think 1.0.13 is the version that is b0rked what do you have? 1.0.14 now it needs the mxDateTime.h file. I swear I installed that already right I hate rpms did I mention that?!? ;P rpms are the devil! I'm going to see if there's an rpm for that right now. :) I can't believe there's no damn psycopg rpm for mandrake well I don't see one on rpmfind.net I love debian Action: chillywilly hugs debian I wouldn't trust it either. Since they went to gcc 3.2 all previous rpms are now broke, officially. maybe I didn't install it at all...... hmm..... why not use postgresql's own python driver package, i can't recall the correct name eh? idk.... they even have debs on the psycopg site lol well yea you can try something else if you want whatever you do, cw, don't tell me to count all the time I spend dealing with rpm and compare it to the time it would take to change to debian lol I left rpm hell long time ago and I'm a better person for it ;) or something ok, I just now installed the egenix-mx package from source, and the ./configure script still didn't find it didn't find what? mxDateTime is in the egenix package, right? dunno but that sounds pretty right btami: how would I configure a connection in gnue using postgres's python driver? Not knowing is the reason I'm not doing... ;) python2.2-egenix-mxdatetime - Date and time handling routines for Python 2.2 guess so ;) you need to know the name and there has to be a gnue driver for it it might be called postgresql checking if curiosity killed the cat... yes danielb@frodo:~/software/src/cvs/gnue/common/src/dbdrivers$ ls CVS/ _dbsig/ _pgsql/ configfile/ dbf/ informix/ msado/ odbc/ popy/ pypgsql/ sqlrelay/ __init__.py _empty/ _static/ cxoracle/ gadfly/ ingres/ mxodbc/ odbc-db2/ postgresql/ sapdb/ sybase/ __init__.pyc _oracle/ appserver/ db2/ geas/ interbase/ mysql/ oracle/ psycopg/ sqlite/ # DESCRIPTION: # Postgresql implementation of dbdriver using Python DB-SIG v2 # specification. wow wouldn't have thought that this works how would you redirect stdout of a command to a file and stderr into a pipe at the same time? hmmm, I think I broke my cvs ssh access to sunversions subversions damnit tee :) wow, changed the provider to postgresql and got something.

Chipaca: I saw in the commit logs that he committed that last night jcater: ah, great jcater: I don't (yet) keep track of the cvs commit logs Chipaca: why not? it can be a very useful resource :) jcater: because others here do that (except that StyXman isn't coming in today), and the main focus here is papo, not gnue or at least, it should be :) today the focus is more on how-can-you-keep-your-brains-cool Chipaca: http://www.herringtoncatalog.com/fs730.html Action: Chipaca wants one it s warmer out today Action: chillywilly is back (gone 00:20:44) now I need a drink and a rest ;) man my foot hurts does gnue use more than one connection to the database per form? no unless you are connecting to multiple databases not even if there are multiple datasources? correct why wouldn't you want to reuse the connection? I want konq to import my galeon bookmarks afaiac, we do want to reuse the connection as it provides an implicit transactional mechanism that was a distinct design decision the question was because we have seen behaviour that seems to imply otherwise i.e. in a master-slave relation whith which we can't use the master-slave infrastructure gnue gives us jcater: can you help with an example of using gnue common for standalone apps? (if you need more detail on that one, I'd have to call on aprono) ra3vat: have you looked at common's Developer's Guide? it has an example on using gnue-common in a script ok, will look again oh, i mostly looked at the Forms' one do we have rpm packages for gnue tools? no one here likes rpms yeah, I thought so someone contributed them a week or so ago s/week/month (man, time flies) where to find them? i need to look on a spac file never did it before spec Yeah, rpms suck. Andrew offered to update the gnue packages the other day, hmm..

Action: ajmitch has more recent one than that now ajmitch: You wanted to update the gnue packages? jbailey: might as well do something ajmitch: Excellent! =) we need to have a working & nice gnue in sid :) Care to be a co-maintainer? ajmitch: can those 2 coexist? (You're a DD, right?) working and nice? :) no i'm not a DD Oh, hmm.

I would like to get some idea what it takes to build a form, and see something work. Where to start? form developers guide or the many samples in gnue/forms/samples right, so what does one do with a .gfd file?

This expected? schema ? I don't understand your question I was hunting for the branch to use, and was wondering if this is tree wide, or per designer, appserver, reports, etc.? oh do you treat these as more or less separate entities, or one big tree they are separate our cvs structure is not ideal heh, who's is? gnue us the place of crazy ppl okay - one more, where does your 'gfclient' command come from - I haven't a whiff of it here anyway, I think common and forms, possibly designer are on that branch you install it...if you do ./setup-cvs.py in the main gnue dir it will install either local or system wide you pick and the executable name then is gfcvs I believe if you go into each dir and do ./setup.py install and install system wide then I think the exectable name is gfclient I usually run it in my home dir and all of it goes un ~/bin and ~/gnue erm installing it via ./setup-cvs.py okay - that seems to be the juju I needed I think jcater had a mail about how to check things out while HEAD is b0rked b0rked? would that be in the archives - I just got on the list today we consider it to be "in the process of being blessed" jcater: HEH hoppy: it was in the November -02 archives http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/gnue-dev/2002-11/msg00033.html now the gfd format is changing right? or did 0.4.x change it? however, I left out GNUe-Common in that email so in addition to the steps in that email do: cd common cvs update -r common-0-4-1-branch chillywilly: 0.5.x changes it right k and when is 0.5.x due :) well hehe we're reasonably sure before christmas but don't hold us to that "when it's ready damnit" christmas?!? j/k :) dude one of the issues I'm having is 0.5.0 introduces a lot of changes but the way we have ppl trained now once we release 0.5.0 ppl are going to want 0.5.1 to be a bugfix release and 0.5.2 to be one too and so one s/one/on and we aren't ready to freeze 0.5.x :( in many ways, the even/odd versioning really does seem better in practice but I won't rehash that old debate :) but that's part of the holdup of the 0.5.0 release we'd originally planned to do it during christmas holidays so what I've fallen back to doing is just doing periodical prereleases :) okay, thaks for the help. Looks like I'm off to battle wxWindows for awhile.... jcater: what's the issues with the win32 interface? jcater: someone was mentioning there was issues there eh? well, the underlying OS would suck that would be issue #1 Vee2d2 (~vin@c66.169.136.41.ftwrth.tx.charter.com) joined #gnuenterprise. jcater: lol that's not my point jeff told me win32 interface has issues yeah wx on windows isn't letting us intercept all the events that wx under gtk does hmmm so the interaction with the form ends up being inconsistent why? not 100% sure but a native Win32 interface is HIGH on our list for forms are there python bindings to the win32 api? yes win32all (the same package that provides our ODBC support in windows) wooo 245KBps downloads rule nah Mango Lasse those rule Action: jcater had two tonight hoppy (~hoppy@cs242221-114.houston.rr.com) left irc: "using sirc version 2.211+KSIRC/1.2.1" ninja (rossg@203.146.54.188) joined #gnuenterprise. jamest (~jamest@adsl-64-216-106-78.dsl.tpkaks.swbell.net) left #gnuenterprise. frayed (~dave@12-230-185-238.client.attbi.com) joined #gnuenterprise. hello? howdy jcater: did you read my post on the developer's list? well I got to the part where you said this was a long email and stopped heh. want it in a nutshell? :) actually, I was on my way out at the time sure we want to use GNUe, and we want to work on the applications part of the package. So, we want to work directly with the project and have our code merged into the project. It would solve a few of our problems if we can work that way, and it would contribute code back to the project. basically, we start with the database schema for the master plan, and when we are all agreed that it is perfect, we'd use it and start coding the specific modules we need. :) um, all of our code would be turned back to the project. I think I said that, but I definitely meant it. hi frayed *gasp* he lives deke! hi derek. pardon the pause, I'm trying to figure out how to hack together online account access for my own bank account Action: frayed hopes to take a hammer to his windows terminal server in the coming weeks. frayed: nah just replace it with LTSP reason it's windows right now is because it runs quicken for me. seriously, if I can get rid of it, I'll turn it into a database server instead. :) man if you only have one windows app you can't do without looksl ike you can download ofx with http from my bank, if you have a url for one.
