-----Original Message----- From: Harsh Busa > How about a lecture on "Introduction to Windows 2003 Server Features" > That shld people compare Linux and Windows objectively,and > know where Linux scores/doesnt score over the fav rival. > Knowledge of the 'enemy' is the prime requirement for a > win! I will take this point in a very positive way and will surely be attending it. we always talk about ourselves, lets see how others are doing in the same race. Regards Harsh --- I would not be able to attend any GLUG BOM meet though, I would like to provide some input. Win 2k3 SBS is different from its previous lot and is a good operating system ( technically), providing good number of features. ( Don't put cost and Freedom issues for time being) In the release of Longhorn, which should support IPv6, the idea is, if you need to enable IPv6 support then -> Right Click in My Networks -> Click Properties -> Check the Box which says Enable IPv6 support. Imagine doing this with Linux kernel based system. (Read the HOWTO and follow the steps). Do you get the difference? Senthil

multipage tiff
by Pradeep Phatak 21 Apr '04

21 Apr '04

hi, I want to create a multipage tiff file, from a group of pnm files and later convert it back to pnm files. this is what I have tried: pnmcat command creates a multipage pnm file. pnmtotiff command with g3 option converted it to a tiff file with good compression. (960K file converted to 80K) problem is that its not a multipage tiff file & tiffsplit doesnt work on it. -- With Regards, Pradeep Phatak Software Engineer Affordable Solutions Lab, KReSIT, IIT Bombay
