Nonags is the safest place on the Internet to download free software from. Before we list anything here we check for viruses, trojans, spyware etc. And even if we find something clean, it still has to pass our special “cheesetest” which for obvious reasons we do not publish exact specs. NonagsPlus is even safer, downloads are from our server and files can’t be switched after we list them. Sure all this means a lot of work for us, but it’s what brings our visitors back for years… and that’s how we like it.

Ice Mirror looks really good for synchronizing files for backup purposes.
from the website:
What is ICE Mirror ?
This utility creates or maintains an exact duplicate of the original directory. ICE Mirror will compare the mirrored directory to the master directory and correct any disparities. ICE Mirror allows ultra fast mirroring because it performs incremental updates. In other words it only copies files that have changed. If only a few files have been updated, it performs very fast.
Also ICE Mirror allows making differential updates. The differential updates are very useful if you are use read-only media (CD-R, DVD-R, DVD+R, etc.). There are two steps in differential updates:
1. Comparison the master directory and the mirrored directory.
2. Copying all new files from the master directory to the secondary mirrored directory.In other words it only copies files that have changed in the mirrored directory to the secondary mirrored directory.
ICE Mirror features:
ICE Mirror support incremental mirroring. Comparing directories/files for mismatches and replace only mismatches.
ICE Mirror support differential mirroring. Comparing directories/files for mismatches and copy only mismatches in separated directory.
ICE Mirror is a native Unicode application. That means that you can safety mirror/compare files with any filename languages.
ICE Mirror made as multithread application. This is allow to see mirror/compare process real-time.
ICE Mirror performs four comparison modes, include binary comparisons.
ICE Mirror support fast maintenance of backup images located on removable drives. Such as a CD-RW, DVD-RW, DVD+RW etc. used packet writing software such as DirectCD, InCD, etc.
ICE Mirror creates safer backups by not merging everything into a single file.

this is a collection of some GREAT scripts.
I really love the leechpop perl script… from the command line, you can connect to a pop mailbox, and download all the attachments from an INBOX.
I’m subscribed to some Fonts mailing lists, and I get all these messages with attachments. Using this script, I can just automatically save off all the attachments from those messages, and save myself alot of work.
i found a great script that will extract the redhat enterprise linux ISO files, and recompile them into a bootable dvd image, so I can install off of one dvdr instead of 6 cdroms !
glad i just got that new dvd+rw drive.
So, I’m currently upgrading one of my systems to be redhat linux enterprise v3, instead of redhat linux 9. kxua and kuaf will not be available via streams from http://listen.uark.edu/ for the afternoon (I hope sooner than that).
After that’s done, I have to reinstall all the apps and stuff, then install my development webct server, so that I can start testing the peoplesoft/isis/webct integration functions. i have to get that operational within a month or so.
scary !
i clicked the icon for photoshop, and it loaded up SUPER DUPER FAST ! That “Quick Launch Bar” REALLY DOES WORK!!!!!
Then I remembered that photoshop had already been open (and had been for the last 2 days), so the quick load time was really the 2 seconds it took for photoshop to blink open from the background.
dammit.
