   • Where does request.get_host() get it's information from? (How to make it have the name of the host, not the IP?)

     Top Answer

     Answered Nov 29, 2014 · 5 votes

     If you have the django setting USE_X_FORWARDED_HOST set, then django will look for a request header named X-Forwarded-Host and use that.

     If the above doesn't pan out, then django uses the Host request header.

     If neither of the above work (and this should be rare), django uses the WSGI environment variable SERVER_NAME which will most likely be the IPv4/v6 address of the socket that your python application server is listening on.

     Most likely, you are running a reverse proxy server in front of your python server, and the proxy is altering the host header of the original request. If this is the case, you may want to set settings.USE_X_FORWARDED_HOST in django, and tell your proxy to pass the original host header in X-Forwarded-Host.

   • where does rails get information about gem path and gem info?

     Top Answer

     Answered Nov 19, 2013 · 0 votes

     Rails itself doesn't know about the gem path, as it's essentially a framework. Tools like Bundler, RVM and rbenv help you setup the gem path in environment variables.

     If you get confused about the loading order, perhaps you should resort to RVM.

     Or if you really want to do it yourself, first check the manual below:

     Make sure to type in gem env in command line to see your current gem related information.

   • Where does "getent group A" get the information on group A?

     Top Answer

     Answered Apr 09, 2014 · 3 votes

     Where does "getent group A" get the information on group A?

     It is configured in /etc/nsswitch.conf. man getent tells this.

     Does it only get from /etc/group?

     It depends on your config files. On my machine it does not get this information only from /etc/group since it is configured in this way:

     group: files ldap

     is it possible that i can find a user (belong group A) by "getent group A" while can NOT find the user from group A in /etc/group?

     Yes it is possible if there are at least two sources of data for groups. By the way, take a look at how getent group work - run it under strace.

     strace -s 256 -o getent.strace.txt -v getent group

     And see what system calls it does. In my case it first reade from /etc/group and loads an ldap module and starts reading from socket

   • Search and get file information from remote workstation on a Windows domain

     Top Answer

     Answered Apr 29, 2012 · 1 votes

     No need to run this from a domain controller. With proper privs, you can run WMI queries from anywhere. In fact, pushing them to a DC would add a hop to the query and likely be slower than querying directly. If you have domain admin privs for the process, I'd just query directly to the unc path for the file existence check, and be done with it.

   • Where does VB6 get its default font from

     Top Answer

     Answered Sep 04, 2014 · 5 votes

     Font for application is set in the Font property of a control. VB6 has as default MS Sans Serif (size 8), which was default system font in Windows 95/98 and this name is hard-coded in VB6. Windows XP uses Tahoma 8, Windows Vista and higher Segoe UI 9. So if you need a modern look of all forms and other controls, change font according the Windows version. It would be difficult to detect it, so this sub takes the first existing font from list:

     'fonts and sizesConst MODERN_FONTS_CSV = "Segoe UI/9,Tahoma/8,MS Sans Serif/8"Sub ChangeFont(oFrm As VB.Form) Dim i As Long Dim mf() As String Dim fontSize As Long Dim fontName As String Dim oCtrl As VB.Control Dim oFont As New stdole.StdFont mf = Split(MODERN_FONTS_CSV, ",") 'list of fonts and sizes as CSV 'trying if the font exists i = 0 Do fontName = Split(mf(i), "/")(0) fontSize = CLng(Split(mf(i), "/")(1)) oFont.Name = Trim(fontName) 'does the font exist? i = i + 1 'font exists or end of the list (last name is the default whether exists or not) Loop Until StrComp(fontName, oFont.Name, vbTextCompare) = 0 Or i > UBound(mf) 'at first change font in the form With oFrm.Font .Name = fontName 'name .size = fontSize 'size '.charset = 238 - you can set charset, in some cases it could be necessary End With 'loop through all controls in the form 'some controls doesn't have font property (timer, toolbar) - ignore error On Error Resume Next For Each oCtrl In oFrm.Controls With oCtrl.Font .Name = fontName 'name .size = fontSize 'size '.charset = 238 - charset, if you want Err.Clear End With Next On Error GoTo 0End Sub

     Solution 2 - get the name of system font

     This code is similar, but reads the system font name and size via API (thanks, Bob77). Well - it is exact, but has some disadvantages:

     • You cannot test all crazy settings of crazy users. For some font sizes may be your program unusable.
     • It gets font name and size set for message (MsgBox Window in VB6), but user may have different fonts for other texts (menu, caption...), however default size is the same.
     • User may have set system font, which doesn't support your language.
     • It may get wrong font size for other than 72 DPI device (see fontSize variable) - it should be fixed.

     Code:

     Option ExplicitDeclare Function SystemParametersInfo Lib "USER32.DLL" _ Alias "SystemParametersInfoA" (ByVal uAction As Long, _ ByVal uiParam As Long, pvParam As Any, _ ByVal fWinIni As Long) As LongPrivate Const LOGPIXELSY = 90Private Const SPI_GETNONCLIENTMETRICS = 41Private Declare Function GetDeviceCaps Lib "gdi32.dll" (ByVal hDC As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long) As LongPrivate Type LOGFONT lfHeight As Long lfWidth As Long lfEscapement As Long lfOrientation As Long lfWeight As Long lfItalic As Byte lfUnderline As Byte lfStrikeOut As Byte lfCharSet As Byte lfOutPrecision As Byte lfClipPrecision As Byte lfQuality As Byte lfPitchAndFamily As Byte lfFaceName(1 To 32) As ByteEnd TypePrivate Type NONCLIENTMETRICS cbSize As Long iBorderWidth As Long iScrollWidth As Long iScrollHeight As Long iCaptionWidth As Long iCaptionHeight As Long lfCaptionFont As LOGFONT iSMCaptionWidth As Long iSMCaptionHeight As Long lfSMCaptionFont As LOGFONT iMenuWidth As Long iMenuHeight As Long lfMenuFont As LOGFONT lfStatusFont As LOGFONT lfMessageFont As LOGFONTEnd TypePublic Sub ChangeFont(oFrm As VB.Form) Dim i As Long Dim ncm As NONCLIENTMETRICS Dim fontSize As Long Dim fontName As String Dim oCtrl As VB.Control Dim oFont As New stdole.StdFont 'get font properties ncm.cbSize = Len(ncm) SystemParametersInfo SPI_GETNONCLIENTMETRICS, 0, ncm, 0 For i = 1 To 32 fontName = fontName & Chr(ncm.lfMessageFont.lfFaceName(i)) Next i 'name fontName = Replace(fontName, Chr(0), "") 'trim 'size fontSize = -(ncm.lfMessageFont.lfHeight * (72 / GetDeviceCaps(oFrm.hDC, LOGPIXELSY))) 'at first change font in the form With oFrm.Font .Name = fontName 'name .Size = fontSize 'size '.charset = 238 - you can set charset, in some cases it could be necessary End With 'loop through all controls in the form 'some controls doesn't have font property (timer, toolbar) - ignore error On Error Resume Next For Each oCtrl In oFrm.Controls With oCtrl.Font .Name = fontName 'name .Size = fontSize 'size '.charset = 238 - charset, if you want Err.Clear End With Next On Error GoTo 0End Sub

     Other questions

     Is it determined by locale?

     No, but I had troubles with national-specific characters, when in Windows setting was different locale and language of environment (German Windows environment and Czech locale). I had to force codepage for all controls (see code above).

     Is it always the same size irrespective of the actual font?

     The text size changes in proper way, if you change font size in Windows environment. I strongly recommend: test your application for all combinations - fonts from MODERN_FONTS_CSV constant and Windows text size 100-150%.
