iSight Disabler Version 3, Leopard Support

Btw, I suggest saving the script on the desktop of a user who has administrator privileges so you can easily enable/disable the camera whenever you want.

$ sudo fdisk -l

That will tell you what hard drives/partitions are available so you can mount them. This is *not* the easy way to do this; I’m just doing it b/c I enjoy the practice. For me, that command revealed:

/dev/sdb1 is the device name I need to mount the usb drive.

I then called:

$sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o rw,uid=1000,umask=0222 /dev/sdb1 /home/partimag

The command that the drbl-live cd ran was:

$ /opt/drbl/sbin/drbl-ocs -b -g auto -x hn1 PC -y0 poweroff –time-to-wait 300 -l en_US startdisk multicast_restore folderNameOfClonezillaImageInTheDirectory-home-partimag hda

The NYCDOE provides a few network challenges.

1) TCP/IP traffic requires a proxy setting. Resolving this is easiest achieved by calling:

$ export http_proxy=http://filtr.nycboe.org:8002

A really good ltsp link: ltsp.org

Windows Firefox script:
user_pref("security.warn_entering_secure", false);
user_pref("security.warn_leaving_secure", false);
user_pref("security.warn_submit_insecure", false);
user_pref("security.warn_viewing_mixed", false);
user_pref("network.proxy.autoconfig_url", "http://proxy.nycboe.org//proxy.pac");
user_pref("network.proxy.type", 2);

Mac Firefox script (Mac Firefox doesn’t have a user.js file, so you have to create one):
user_pref("security.warn_entering_secure", false);
user_pref("security.warn_leaving_secure", false);
user_pref("security.warn_submit_insecure", false);
user_pref("security.warn_viewing_mixed", false);
user_pref("network.proxy.autoconfig_url", "http://proxy.nycboe.org/proxy.pac");
user_pref("network.proxy.type", 2);

Select EDIT — Publishing Site Settings…

For BHSEC, write in:

For the first time you set this up, select “Save password”. However, if you’re not on your own computer with your own username and password, after you’re done with Kompozer don’t forget to go back and uncheck the box. You don’t anyone else being able to access the site.

After all of this is set up, under Site Manager you should be able to see the name of the site you entered, with a plus in front of it.

Once you click on that plus sign, Kompozer should take all of one second to access into your site, after which you should be able to see all of the directories and files of your site under the site name.

Also, the proxy needs to be setup. Select TOOLS — OPTIONS — ADVANCED.

In the Connection box, click on Connection Settings, then fill in the following:

General points to remember:

1. Don’t reveal email addresses. This is a sure way to get lots of spam.
2. Watch your relative links. IOW, <link href=”../bhsec_stylesheet.css”> will only work if this css file *really* is in the directory above the current one. (Double dots mean the directory above.) You could also use static links (ie http://www.bard.edu/bhsec/yadayada/bhsec_stylesheet.css”) but this is generally poor practice because if any folder name is changed, in the path above the file, all the static links will break.
3. Make use of our pre-defined format styles found in our css file so that the look and feel will be consistent across the bhsec website. In kompoZer, switch to the Html Tags view (tab at the bottom) to enable the css pulldown on the top left.
4. Think about how to make it easier for the faculty to change the the content of their webpages without having to deal with code. For example use inc files for the content (just one idea). But also maybe make a form (in php) to edit their content.

FireFTP is, IMHO, the simplest ftp client. It works on osx/win/linux. It’s opensource (”free as in beer and free as in speech”). It’s a firefox addon, so you’ll need firefox. Go ahead and bookmark it so you can easily find it. On the top left look for a new toolbar with: Manage Accounts>New…

Ok> then select “Connect”. Notice it changes to “Disconnect”. The left hand side is the filesystem of the computer you’re working on right now, the right hand side is the remote server you’re editing. You don’t need the left hand side (you can drag/drop from outside firefox) but I recommend you use an ftp client so you can easily keep backups while you edit web pages… and the left hand side makes copying entire folders much easier.

I recommend you first make a backup of the entire site. It won’t take long, websites are often very small in size.
Next, I recommend that before you edit any file, you make a copy and name it something like filename.html-bkup01. Then, each time you edit the file again, increase the number eg bkup02.

Occasionally I need an sftp client, which fireftp isn’t, and I use filezilla. On OSX I hear you can use fugu or cyberDuck.
