[OT] Hospital Software
by Rony Bill 10 Nov '05

10 Nov '05

Hello All, Yesterday I was at a hospital to oversee a patient's discharge. It took a whole day for them to simply discharge the patient. What was surprising was that even though the hospital had computers in practically all departments, they didn't seem to maintain records progressively. They made small hand written bills for various medical activities and put them in a patient's file. This file would then be passed on from one dept. to another. Finally during discharge, the billing dept. would enter all these records one by one into their computer. This was a long process and to add to the delay was a pile of many such files to be entered into the computer at a time. Ultimately inspite of having lots of computers with them in the entire hospital, they were underutilizing this usefull resource. There are many software developers on this list who are also into database management. This is just a suggestion. Whenever they create softwares for hospitals, they could create a system wherein every department creates its bills directly into the computer and prints it out on a tiny printer just like the one used in restaurants and STD/ISD booths. So when a patient's portfolio is created on admission it is stored on a central server. Every department's new bill is added to this record at the time of creation itself. So during discharge the billing department does not enter any bills into their computer, instead they simply click a button to get a final print out as per their format. In order to overcome local networking glitches that may temporarily prevent access to the main server, a sub server database can be kept running in every machine that is used to enter data. This server will store a backup of all its own records and also act as a buffer holder when network is down. When the network is up again, it will automatically locate the main server and update the main database. This will be a background process that will run without user intervention, thus allowing records to be created inspite of network loss.

> What is offending in suggesting an alternative which is non-linux? I dont see what real alternative (linux or non-linux) you provided... (? "stuff" ?) As I see it, your remark spreads the myth that linux is complex, and is unsuitable or too sophisticated for normal person... A newbie user CAN feel totally snubbed, and unwelcome by such responses.. and just give up on Linux.. Linux is not an exclusive club with "only command-line users allowed, normal ppl need not apply" ... The future of Linux is dependent upon the growth of a community of users amongst us... who help each other.. ultimately this should help all of us.. (maybe, if we get enough critical mass, ISP's, IE only websites, and device manufacturers would actually start caring about us!! :-) ) ANYWAYS, can we move on from this to the real question being asked please.. pasting again... > > Hello, > > Linux has excellent bandwidth management subsystem.

Linker Flag information
by Mandar Khanolkar 08 Nov '05

08 Nov '05

hi, I am facing a problem related to ld (linker directive) on RH Linux AS 3. Functionality: We are using OHS (Oracle HTTP Server), which loads our shared library module, consider A.so. This A.so has dependancy on some LDAP SDK .so modules. These are mozilla LDAP SDK libraries we use to do LDAP related xsactions. Also OHS has its own LDAP SDK libraries and it loads these libraries and symbols globally. problem: When we do some LDAP related transaction through Web-browser, our modules calls mozilla LDAP SDK for DS connectivity. This is as expected. But mozilla LDAP SDK is failing to invoke correct routine internally. It calls OHS LDAP routines as it finds them defined globally. So we want to resolve mozilla LDAP calls internally w/o going into OHS. We are doing this for both Linux and Solaris. For Solaris we have resolved the problem by linking mozilla LDAP SDK libraries with -B direct linker option. This way all LDAP calls are resolving internallywithin mozilla libraries. But problem still exist with Linux as I couldnt find -B direct linker option for ld. If I use static libraries to generate A.so, ofcourse it resolves the issue. But I want to use mozilla LDAP shared libraries. Is there any compatible option on Linux like -B direct? -mandar

Re: [ILUG-BOM] Help me with pppoe problem with ubuntu 5.10
by Faraz Shahbazker 07 Nov '05

07 Nov '05

>> i have to pppoeconf everytime i want to login to inet You mean you have to run the "pon" script. pppoeconf is the configuration tool that asks for login info each time. Once configured the info is stored in: /etc/ppp/peers/<some_connection_name> You can then start ppp anytime by doing: $ pon <some_connection_name> As for automatic starting, I added this to /etc/network/interfaces --- cut here --- auto ppp0 iface ppp0 inet ppp provider <some_connection_name> --- cut here --- Just put your connection-name correctly. The network service should take care of bringing the interface up at boot. NOTE: this is for the kernel-based pppoe implementation (using deb packages "pppoe" and "pppoeconf"). If you are using user-space implementation (namely rp-pppoe) the startup script is pppoe-start instead of pon. Also the configuration utility is pppoe-setup instead of pppoeconf. - farazs
