cache confusion

Running FF on Linux. With about:cache I do see the following: Memory cache device Disk cache device Offline cache device

Running FF on Vista. With about:cache I do see the following: Disk cache device Offline cache device

This is with both, FF12, and FF13 beta. Is there no memory cache for the Windows version? Thanks.



trackingAreas can be snuck up on without triggering?

I have a view for which I am adding a tracking area so that I can update the cursor. The view entirely fills my window and is the only view in the window’s content view.

The tracking area is being registered thusly:

- (void) awakeFromNib { NSTrackingArea* trackingArea = [[NSTrackingArea alloc ] initWithRect:[self bounds] options:NSTrackingCursorUpdate|NSTrackingActiveInActiveApp owner:self userInfo:nil]; [self addTrackingArea:trackingArea]; }

and I have defined in my view:

- (void) cursorUpdate:(NSEvent *)event { NSLog(@”cursorUpdate: %@”, [NSDate date]); [[NSCursor openHandCursor] set]; }

If I whip the mouse into the window’s content area, my cursorUpdate method is called and I see the correct cursor. If I slowly sneak the mouse into my window’s content area, I see the window resize cursor for a moment as I cross into the window content area (I’m running Lion), then… nothing. The cursor reverts to the arrow cursor, and my cursorUpdate: method is not called, even though I am well into my view’s rectangle.

If I inset my view from the boundaries of the window a bit (16-ish pixels), things behave as expected.

What am I doing wrong?

Firefox security certificate exceptions

I sometimes get the invalid certificate message from FF for visiting sites that I wouldn’t expect it from. This often happens when I use the laptop from behind a (pretty tight) corporate firewall. A proxy is used to access the internet in that case. For example, www.google.ca would generate that message. I sometimes accept them because I figure they are due to the use of a proxy (though I’m entirely sure). Then I get second thoughts, because I’m not always behind the corporate firewall using a proxy, perhaps I really shouldn’t have such an exception. So I go on the lookout to nuke them.

I access tools->options->Advanced->Servers. I see a list of items, some indented, some not. My vague understanding of how certificates work (correct me if I’m wrong) is that trusted authorities give them. I am assuming that the unindented list items are authorities that I have somehow chosen to trust e.g. DigiNotar, DigiNotar B.V., my own organization shows up on the list, Entrust.net, Equifax Secure Inc., GTE Corporation, The USERTRUST Network, etc. If I nuke them all, perhaps I would be nuking entries that are suppose to be universal. Would I be obliterating any ability to access the internet at all? Would I have to install FF from scratch? I would have to access the internet just to get at the current version of FF.

What should I do? There are several specific questions that I mean by this.

* What should I do with regards to nuking the certificates under some servers, considering that I expect to use the laptop both within and outside of the corporate firewall / proxy arrangement? That is, what is best practice, and what is the trade-off in such a recommended practice?

* How do I identify which certificates (which I assume mean the same thing as exception, at least in this context, right?) and/or servers should be nuked?

Thanks!

Study material for CCIE R&S troubleshooting

Thanks Jay. Appreciate it. Will do them in the order advised. I am definitely not at the “I’ve got this” stage so will start with INE and Narbik.

It depends on where you are at within your training. They are all great as I contribute them to my success.

IPX VOL 3

If you feel you are an expert

If you have the large number of routers needed

You don’t need to know why a solution was chosen If you have their videos that accompany them, they somewhat help you

These are for the Advanced, “I’ve got this” Engineer (and trust me, you won’t think that after you see them)

Narbik Troubleshooting

If you like a good explaination for the “why”, and where to look for the traps Have racks similiar to the Cisco 360 layout

I advise most to start here as they are for the beginner to experienced Engineer, as they aren’t as hard or kill your spirit as IPX does

INE VOL 4 If you have older hardware and don’t need that much detail on the why

If you have the videos to accompany them- that helps

I appreciate all three of them. If I had to choose one or two, I would choose (in this order), Narbik and INE. IPX is over-the-top difficult, and made me want to give up at some points during my training.

Good luck!
