• Install network-manager-openvpn using synaptic
• I know it’s not linux style – but do a reboot know – just to insure that all services are running. I had no success with the next steps without rebooting. Or I’ve been too lazy searching for the services that needed a restart.
• Download the .p12 file from IPCop or ask someone to do it for you.
• Now you have to extract 3 certificate files out of your .p12 file.
  
openssl pkcs12 -nocerts -in (filename).p12 -out userkey.pem
openssl pkcs12 -nokeys -clcerts -in (filename).p12 -out usercert.pem
openssl pkcs12 -nokeys -cacerts -in (filename).p12 -out userca.pem

  Or download that script and call it with pkcs2certs.sh your-username.p12 and it’ll create the required files for you.
• Now place the files into your vpn configuration and make the settings match your zerina configuration (cipher, compression etc.)

• Version 1.6.2beta now exists as a version for Access 2002 and Access 2003.
  If you are using 1.6.1 and everything works then there’s NO need for changing to 1.6.2beta.
  This version only fixes compatipility issues related to MS-Access.
• If you want to make modifications to MyAccess then the current source code file is here.
  Maybe someone would be so nice and test/port it to Access2007- Thanks !
  If you make any modifications then I’d be happy if you share the code.
• If you want to make modifications then please open the .mdb file and keep the <shift> button pressed. Now take a look at the autoexec macro or call from the direct window (ctrl-g) myaccess_start

Before trying MyAccess please make sure that MS-Access talks to your MySQL Server using MyODBC.
Otherwise it's completly useless trying MyAccess!

In case you suffer from a Error 40230 then it's most likeley that you need to run a decompile. How to do that is described here

MyAccess

xmodmap -e “remove lock = Caps_Lock”

In order to make these changes permanent open your ~/.bashrc using

sudo nano ~/.bashrc

and add the line above

I’ve setup the email client Thunderbird with its addon Lightning for Calender/Tasks

1. Email via IMAP
   Simply specify your Hostname and Username/Password
2. Calendar/Tasks via calDAV
   Add a new network calendar using calDAV with the address

   http://<hostname>/calendars/<domain>/<user>/Calendar

3. Adressbook via LDAP
   Create a new Adressbook with LDAP
   Name: Your name but can be whatever you like
   Adress: your server’s hostname
   Base-DN:  fn=ContactRoot
   Port: 389
   Bind DN: your emailadress
   The only Drawback is that this Addressbook will be read-only

When the servlet calls the entry point’s Url then we have everything UTF-8 encoded and additionally used URLEncoder.encode(URL).

On the jacob side the Data arrives as ISO8859-1 although everything in Jacob appears to be UTF-8. But a simple

String data1= new String(properties.getProperty("data1").getBytes("ISO8859-1"),"UTF-8");

does the job.

1. Pairing the 2 devices
2. Setup a connection on the Palm using Local Network via Bluetooth with 115.2000 Bit/s
3. Setup a Network using the connection defined above
4. Tell the Bluetooth Manager of your PC to start the Networking service on startup via autostart=true in /etc/bluetooth/network.service
5. in /etc/default/bluetooth set
   DUND_ENABLED=1
   DUND_OPTIONS=”–listen –persist –msdun call treo”
6. create /etc/ppp/peers/treo with
   115200192.168.2.1:192.168.2.2
   local
   ms-dns 127.0.0.1
   noauth
   debug

   where the first IP is your Ubuntu box and the second one will be assigned to your palm

7. after a /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart you should be able to connect.

In case you suffer from a Serieal Port Error Message you should call dund manually by issuing

sudo killall dund
sudo dund –nodetach –listen –persist –msdun call treo

Let’s assume the following database schema

We want to be able to delete records from the tables hauptprf and/or teilprf. Therefore we need to  add some code to the classes HauptprfTableRecord and TeilprfTableRecord both attached to the respective tablealias.

HauptprfTableRecord

public void afterDeleteAction(IDataTableRecord tableRecord, IDataTransaction transaction) throws Exception
{
IDataTable hprdet = tableRecord.getAccessor().getTable(Hauptprfdet.NAME);
hprdet.qbeSetKeyValue(Hauptprfdet.hauptprf_key, tableRecord.getValue(“pkey”));
hprdet.fastDelete(transaction);

IDataTable hprdok = tableRecord.getAccessor().getTable(Hauptprfdok.NAME);
hprdok.qbeSetKeyValue(Hauptprfdok.hauptprf_key, tableRecord.getValue(“pkey”));
hprdok.fastDelete(transaction);

IDataTable hprgeb = tableRecord.getAccessor().getTable(Hauptprfgeb.NAME);
hprgeb.qbeSetKeyValue(Hauptprfgeb.hauptprf_key, tableRecord.getValue(“pkey”));
hprgeb.fastDelete(transaction);

IDataTable teilprf = tableRecord.getAccessor().getTable(Teilprf.NAME);
teilprf.qbeSetKeyValue(Teilprf.hauptprf_key, tableRecord.getValue(“pkey”));
teilprf.searchAndDelete(transaction);
}

TeilprfTableRecord

public void afterDeleteAction(IDataTableRecord tableRecord, IDataTransaction transaction) throws Exception
{
IDataTable teildet = tableRecord.getAccessor().getTable(Teilprfdet.NAME);
teildet.qbeSetKeyValue(Teilprfdet.teilprf_key, tableRecord.getValue(“pkey”));
teildet.fastDelete(transaction);

IDataTable teildok = tableRecord.getAccessor().getTable(Teilprfdok.NAME);
teildok.qbeSetKeyValue(Teilprfdok.teilprf_key, tableRecord.getValue(“pkey”));
teildok.fastDelete(transaction);

IDataTable colldat = tableRecord.getAccessor().getTable(Collecteddata.NAME);
colldat .qbeSetKeyValue(Collecteddata.teilprf_key, tableRecord.getValue(“pkey”));
colldat .fastDelete(transaction);
}

The only important thing is that fastDelete offers great performance but DOES NOT trigger any other hooks. Therefore deleting the teilprf data from the hauptprf  function contains the searchAndDelete function ! All the other delete operations can be done using fastDelete since the respective tables are the last in the hierarchy.

openssl genrsa -out server.key 1024
openssl req -new -x509 -key server.key -out server.pem -days 1826
sudo mv server.key /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
sudo mv server.pem /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem
sudo /etc/init.d/dovecot restart

But take care that you specify the server’s fully qualified domain name (the name you use for connecting) as the common name ! Otherwise Mozilla Thunderbird will not allow you to accept that certificate permanently. However we will still need to accept that certificate manually since it’s self-signed.

What needs to be done ist do convert my utf-8 encoded files to iso-8859-1 is:

After stopping Tomcat I copied all my content to a new subdirectory called old. From that directory I called

for a in `find . -name \*.html -print`; do iconv -f utf-8 -t iso-8859-1 <”$a” >../”$a” ; done

Which means: Find all .html files and convert them from utf-8 to iso-8859-1 and put them in the same place as they where but 1 level higher.

Before starting Tomcat again please delete the $CATALINA_HOME/work/mesh-cms directory.

Oh, did I mention that the above command works on Linux only ?
