It works like a charm and saves me a lot of time. I have some feature request for upcoming versions. I would like Rumplet to also copy the expiring date of the link into the clipboard or even better, have a preference dialog where I can set what is copied to the clipboard, could be like the settings for Event notice, so it could look like this: ??TEXT TO CLIPBOARD?? Link: This link will expire After this we will charge ?100 for creating the link again.. _________ Med v?nlig h?lsning / Kind Regards *Ren?

Message-ID: In the three years since I last asked this question on this list, Apple has discontinued the Xserve, gutted their server software, and re-re-re-launched their own Internet storage product. I write this from USENIX LISA, where Apple has a small booth on the show floor-- trying to recruit senior Linux system administrators. I think the writing is officially on the wall for Mac-based servers. I like Rumpus a lot; I don't like it well enough to move to a Mac Mini "server" or to turn over 12U of rack space to a Mac Pro (assuming THAT isn't discontinued soon). But my last couple of Xserves turn 4 years old next month, and I need to have a plan to replace them in July. The only one that I don't already have a plan to replace with another platform is my Rumpus server (which, incidentally, I love). So, my question: Is there any realistic chance of a non-Mac* Rumpus server in the next 6-7 months, or is it time for me to start looking for a Rumpus replacement? I recognize that opening Rumpus up to non-Mac servers would probably put more of a support burden on Maxum, and would be fine with a business model in which Rumpus Enterprise (for non-Mac systems) had a higher price tag. But I also think that the Mac server market has peaked, and that sooner or later Rumpus needs to support other platforms with a larger server market share. I'm voting for sooner. :^) *(In order of preference: Solaris**, Linux, FreeBSD, Windows) **Yes I know Solaris would make no business sense at all-- but I love ZFS and as long as I'm dreaming I might as well dream big! -- Dave Pooser Manager of Information Services Alford Media http://www.alfordmedia.com From john at maxum.com Thu Dec 8 06:21:37 2011 From: john at maxum.com (John O'Fallon) Date: Thu, 8 Dec 2011 08:21:37 -0600 Subject: [Rumpus-talk] Three years later: Any nearer a Linux port?

It works seamlessly. However, today we tested it on a 26Mb PDF file with a guest client, who is using IE on a PC. According to their (as yet unsubstantiated) feedback, "Yes I allowed notifications in my browser and there were no error messages. But, it took a long while to open and when it did there was nothing there." Not very helpful, really... We have had no issues accessing the drop-shipped file ourselves, from a remote Mac, using Safari, Opera, Firefox or Chrome. And we have now had the opportunity to test this on our own PCs, outside our LAN, and seemingly, yes - there may be some issues - but not with IE. Speed is obviously dependent on connection bandwidth and is out of our control. Nonetheless, we can report that using a DELL laptop running Windows 7 Professional on a wired ethernet connection through a DSL modem - IE 8 and Opera v11 gave us no issues at all - notwithstanding our client's feedback. Comodo Dragon Browser v11.4 worked perfectly - and was the fastest. Google Chrome 16 and Firefox 8 failed abysmally - a download did not even initiate. We have yet to test it on other PC browsers. I realise that this is not a Rumplet issue - if indeed this is a real issue at all. But I thought I would ask the question - has anyone else experienced issues for guests accessing drop-shipped files from the world of the PC? Should I just tell these clients to go buy a Mac? Regards John MacLulich Our reassurance to you... Colours will be open as usual on every business day over the 2011 Christmas and New Year break. However, if you need urgent or large-volume digital printing work at this time, it would be wise to let us know in advance, especially as our suppliers, couriers and freight companies may be overworked and rush deliveries may be more difficult.

It runs on OS X 10.5 and later, on both Intel and PPC Macs, and is feature complete. A couple of changes have been made since the last beta release... The number of downloads of each drop ship URL is now shown on the history sheet. However, this change also requires an update to the server, which isn't available yet. Rumpus 7.1.5 is due this week. Until then, the number of downloads will be shown as "?". Once you update to 7.1.5, the display will be accurate. You can now specify a "pasted message" to be automatically copied to the clipboard when sending a file. The message can include the filename and size, and is defined on the setup sheet. The message is applied only when you initially send the drop ship file. If you use the "copy to clipboard" button on the history sheet, only the drop ship URL will be put on the clipboard. Thanks for all of the feedback on Rumplet. Not all suggestions have been incorporated for version 1.0, but they are appreciated, and are in the database of things to work on in the future.

Some of the updates are worthwhile, especially if you... * Use the "boxes" appearance * Tend to upload files with long names via the Web interface * Use Rumplet * Use Growl As always, let me know if you have any trouble. John Rumpus 7.1.5 ------------ Corrects a bug that causes Web interface folder downloads to fail when using the "Boxes" appearance. When the "Always Prompt For Login" option is disabled, the URL returned in the HTTP redirect that establishes the session will now include query arguments sent in the initial request. When the Web interface file upload progress indicator is displayed, long filenames are now truncated so that they don't extend beyond the edge of the progress dialog. Corrected the tool tip text for the "Delete Expired Files" field on the Define Users window. Added "EncodeSearchResultNames" config file option to have filenames in search results unencoded (implemented for better handling of Korean filenames). When a possible hack attempt is detected in an HTTP session, triggering the client IP address to be added to the blocked clients list, and the HTTP connection is persistent, the connection is now dropped, reducing the possibility that malicious clients can make numerous login attempts on a single connection. Growl notifications now use the GNTP growl interface, when available, for compatibility with Growl 1.3 and later. Adds support for full drop ship reporting via Rumplet (coming soon).
