multipage tiff
by Pradeep Phatak 21 Apr '04

21 Apr '04

hi, I want to create a multipage tiff file, from a group of pnm files and later convert it back to pnm files. this is what I have tried: pnmcat command creates a multipage pnm file. pnmtotiff command with g3 option converted it to a tiff file with good compression. (960K file converted to 80K) problem is that its not a multipage tiff file & tiffsplit doesnt work on it. -- With Regards, Pradeep Phatak Software Engineer Affordable Solutions Lab, KReSIT, IIT Bombay

Hello luggers, Now our company have shifted to linux platform.Previuosly we wee using windows OS and tally for managing the company accounts.Now as we have migtared to linux we need some good web based accounting package which can be installed on our intranet server and all the users should have authenticated access to the web based accounting package(for example an application written in php+mysql+Apache) .Also one more reason to have central web based application is that on windows we have to install the accounting package on all the client workstations,but with this kind of web based application we wont need to install any client software and purchase seperate licence for all those client pc's. I have searched sourceforge.net,googled but with no results.Please point me to some useful links where i can get this kind of software package or if anybody does develope such application's feel free to contact.

SELinux Move.
by Animesh Singh 19 Apr '04

19 Apr '04

The U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), also known as the codemakers and codebreakers cryptologic division within the Department of Defense, has helped to harden Linux with newly-released Security Enhanced Linux (SELinux) kernel modifications. The SELinux improvements mark a major breakthrough for Linux. Because of the NSA's contributions to the kernel, the new security features will now show up in mainstream distributions of Linux. SELinux was released by the NSA under the GNU GPL open source license. SELinux is essentially a Linux Kernel with a number of utilities that provide enhanced security functionality. But the critical component of SELinux is how it implements and handles mandatory access controls. http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/news.cfm PS: Do read the FAQ section. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
