<html><body><p>Today I had a lot of problems installing some software on a Windows CE based PDA. When the installation procedure tried to open the software screen of Active Sync the screen would open but close again immediately. The installation program would claim the software was installed, which it wasn't. Shutting down Zonealarm solved the problem.</p></body></html>
<html><body><p>If you've installed the default cvs package on Debian sarge, but chose not to configure it as a CVS server, you've got problems when you want to correct that. So far I've followed these steps:

<li>Remove and reinstall cvs package. Didn't help.</li>
<li>Create a cvs user</li>
<li>Change ownership of /var/lib/cvs to cvs user</li>

Hmm, nothing I tried worked. I just found another machine with no prior CVS install and made it work there.</body></html>

Nou ja, dit is hetzelfde land dat doet alsof terrorisme iets nieuws is en dat het met wat meer blauw op straat (of incognito) op te lossen is... Alsof er ooit grootschalige arrestaties zijn geweest van RAF of IRA cellen. Ook die kampeerden in Nederland!
Daarnaast een regering die het land zo in de put praat dat de economie nog steeds niet wil opstarten. Zucht.
