Remove watermark from PDF
by Simon Mbuthia 09 Jul '10

09 Jul '10

Hi guys, I have this PDF file with over 400 pages, each of which has a watermark that is removeable using Foxit PDF Editor. However, as far as I know, you can only do this page by page. Is there any application that I can use to do it on every page given the range of page numbers to edit? Shukran, Me.

eNewsletter web app
by John Wesonga 09 Jul '10

09 Jul '10

Hi, I need a web app that will allow me to send HTML newsletter easily. The app should have the following features: 1. Pick a static template- The template will be predefined and in most cases will just be one. 2. Enter content for the newsletter through a web interface like a mini-CMS specifically for the key sections of the newsletter. 3. Preview newsletter with the content to be sent out. 4. Send newsletter to specified email addresses stored in database.- The CMS should allow me to add the email addresses also. Preferred dev language is PHP or Python with integration to MySQL DB, it will run on a Ubuntu web server on a local network. Estimated number of email addresses is currently about 2000. If you have a solution for this contact me off list. -- -- John Wesonga

ISA 2004 Help Required
by Odhiambo Washington 08 Jul '10

08 Jul '10

I happen to be familiar with Unix firewalls but this Microsoft one is another - simply does not obey my rules. I need someone expert with it to help me out. I have a LAN in the 192.168.0.0 - 255.255.0.0 address range. ISA is running on SBS 23k. This PC has is multi-homed, with one public interface. I need to do the following: 1. Allow pop3, pop3s, smtp, smtps, imap and imaps for everyone 2. Deny ALL Internet Access except to a few hosts. These exempted hosts have static IPs dished out via DHCP servers running either on the SBS or Cisco. Now this is what I have attempted. (a) Policy no. 1: Action = Deny; Protocols = All outbound traffic except selected (like above), From = Internal (with Exceptions), To = External (b) Policy no. 2: Action = Allow; Protocols = Selected (FTP, HTTP, HTTPS) >From = Internal; To = Selected Websites .... Then I have the default Last Rule that DENYs everything. What happens is that rule 1 stops the guys even from Accessing their e-mails and does NOT allow the PCs in the Exception list to access the Internet. I am stumped. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube
