I've used mbtPdfAsm to script the assembly of multiple PDF documents on the fly. Its been a hand tool and one that I have websites that rely on it. Recently I tried to re-compile this code for use on a Debian Lenny (5) system. It uses GCC/G++ 4.3. Apparently there are some syntactical errors that previous versions of G++ ignored. So when I ran "make" on my Debian system I ended up with:

Apple has long had a policy of releasing a new version of OS X every 18 months. This is not bad in and of itself but it seems that every release introduces incompatibilities. Fortunately the versions are backwards compatible so that the software you bought for v10.3 will run on v10.4 and higher. But software that is built with a new version of the OS won't run on the older versions, even if they don't use features specific to the new version of the OS. Software developers compound this by developing with the new OS soon after its release making software that is incompatible with computers that have not been upgraded.

There are actually two bugs, that I know of, that can be covered by this title. Unfortunately in the workplace they often work together to create a large amount of trouble. The first issue is a Windows NT, 2000 and XP (I haven't tested 2003 or greater) issue, which results in client sessions being dropped. The second issue involves Windows 98 and 98se. The workstation will simply forget it has a connection to the server and create a new one ignoring the first. When using applications that share files, specifically database files, and all clients have to be able to access the files in a synchronized manner, these issues become real ugly.

Linux is an operating system that is based on the Unix architecture that has 40+ years of experience under its belt. Linux is a relative newcomer to the operating system world, having been started in the early '90s by a Finish student, Linus Torvolds. It is currently available for a huge number of devices and computing platforms, including PCs and Macs. In fact you probably have some device in your possession that is Linux powered already.

In this article I assume the user is familiar with the idea of a host name / domain name mapping. It is typically referred to as a "hosts" entry because the entry is made to a file usually called "hosts". I won't go into the details of what or why you might actually want to do this as it would require writing a document on how the Internet works, which is way beyond the scope of this simple HOW TO.
