ssh, xterm terminal, and sh shell
by David Mehler 15 Aug '17

15 Aug '17

Hello, I'm using a router with the merlin firmware on it. It's using a terminal type of xterm, and the shell is sh. I was wondering if anyone had any experience/tips/tricks with ssh-ing to a machine with that combination? Thanks. Dave.

Active Directory and IM/Presence with Asterisk
by Katherine M. Moss 15 Aug '17

15 Aug '17

Hi all,, Was wondering whether or not anybody has gotten this to work? We've got a nice Asterisk PBX running, and now we're trying to incorporate chat into it. The big question is whether to use something like EJabberd and use its extension, though doesn't Asterisk itself have an extension? My thoughts were the more integrated this is, the less administration any of us have to do with one server handling calls, while the other is handling chat ... not to mention, the prospects of using Active Directory credentials with it. Any suggestions, guys? I can't find anything worth a dang regarding documentation on this (It's my friend who set up the asterisk server; he's teaching me, not the other way around). Also, for soft clients, was looking at X-Lite or Bria, their paid product. How does everyone around here like either one of those? Thanks for all the assistance in advance. Appreciated. I wish I could give you more information on our server environment, though last time I spoke with people, tweeks were still happening. I'd think it's probably either Ubuntu or CentOS; some members of my little group or obsessed with those. LOL

deploying NVDA with custom config
by Zameer Mahomed 15 Aug '17

15 Aug '17

Hi List, Apologies in advance if I am going off topic. Has anyone gotten NVDA to install silently using a custom config pointed elsewhere? My question stems from some NVDARemote messages which I've followed from Simon sometime ago, Thanks Simon. I've setup the config and put it it on the server however, My problem is that If I install NVDA with switches like: c:\nvda.exe --install-silent -m launchNVDA -r -c \\share\NVDA After a silent install, on the desktop, target of the icon shows like: "C:\Program Files (x86)\NVDA\nvda_slave.exe" launchNVDA -r Of course I could modify the icon to point to the config, but I can't imagine having to do this on many pc's within the company? Any help regarding my issue would be much appreciated please. Kind Regards

NVDA with Windows 10 Creative Creating User Accounts
by vic.pereira＠ssc-spc.gc.ca 14 Aug '17

14 Aug '17

Good day everyone I am having issues creating local user accounts when running NVDA as my text to speech program. I think this might be specifically related to NVDA, because when I unload NVDA and call up Narrator I am able to create local user accounts. When running NVDA after selecting add someone to this computer I hear the please wait message then it comes back to the same button. No dialogue comes up to enter the required information. This behaviour has happened on more than one computer running Windows 10. Vic

Merlin firmware with Samba
by David Mehler 13 Aug '17

13 Aug '17

Hello, I'm using the latest Merlin firmware on my router. Is anyone using this and using samba? I had the thought that I could make my router internal a lan server as it also has an external USB drive in it, and could use that as a media/storage/backup drive. The issue is the drive is visible to my machine, it's a win10, but not to anything else, got an 8 box, and a Mac, and phones as well as other win10 machines which are not working. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks. Dave.
