[*] /utils/checkhotmail.class [*] /utils/checkhotmail.java A java utility and source code to test a list of Hotmail addresses for validity. That is, the program establishes whether each address actually exists. The program does this without sending any test messages to the target addresses. This needs to become a 'web-script' to allow any user to access it. (See the page which is listed in the 'miscelaneous' section of this web-page) * The NetBeans Tomcat Guide|/alexis-info/external-docs/netbeans-tomcat-guide|html|txt|pdf| This is the guide to using Netbeans with the Tomcat Server * The NetBeans Users Guide|/alexis-info/external-docs/netbeans-usersguide.txt|html|txt|pdf| This is the general Users guide from the Netbeans IDE.

The Alexis System uses WebDav. * Some RedHat Linux And U.S Server Information|/matth3wbishop/docs/some-redhat-stuff|html|txt| This file contains the beginning of my investigations into how to do just about everything in RedHat Linux. This has become necessary because the US Server (T1) is running RedHat not Debian like the 'local server'. * Information about 'iptables'|/matth3wbishop/docs/about-iptables|html|txt| This is the beginning of some information and links about the Linux program 'iptables' which is designed to prevent 'network abuse' * Information About 'James' and 'SendMail'|/matth3wbishop/docs/james-and-sendmail|html|txt| This page contains some links to resources about the two mail servers James and Sendmail. Ella Associates uses the James Mail Server (which is written in Java) but the U.S. Server initially had the Sendmail MTA (mail transport agent) installed, which had to be 'disabled' before setting up James. * http://httpd.apache.org/docs/ Documentation for the Apache Web Server.

There are many examples for configuration. * Some PHP Resources|/matth3wbishop/docs/php-resources|html|txt| Some web resources and information for the PHP web scripting system * DNS Learning Materials|/matth3wbishop/docs/dns-info|html|txt| This page contains some links to on-line resources for learning about the DNS service and how to set up a DNS Server. * Netcat and Smtp difficulties|/matth3wbishop/docs/smtp-torture|html|txt| A description of attempting to get SMTP to work from a shell script The trials and tribulations.

This file requires the 'ella internal' password. * http://gnuWin32.sourceforge.net/ Microsoft Windows 'ports' (versions) of many Gnu (open source) tools. * http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/IG/ert/iso639.htm A list of valid two letter language codes. You use these when you translate a web-page into another language and want the 'users' browser to automatically display the right language. eg: If you file is in French name it 'mygreatwebpage.html.fr' or it could be 'mygreatwebpage.fr.html' (I am still not 100% sure). * About the RPM System|/matth3wbishop/docs/rpm-info.txt|html|txt| Some basic notes about the Redhat package manager system, which is the basic and normal way to install stuff on RedHat Linux.. * Some Bash Shell Resources|/matth3wbishop/docs/some-bash-resources|html|txt| This page contains some links for useful stuff for the Unix Bash Shell, including CGI scripting * Some Apache Tomcat Stuff|/matth3wbishop/docs/tomcat-info|html|txt| This page contains or will contain links to resources about the Apache Tomcat application server, which is a major component of the Alexis program * Important Tools|/matth3wbishop/docs/important-tools|html|txt|xml| This page contains links to free programs which you may need or may not need to use in your work.

The system does not send 'test emails'. * Some Nicely Designed Web Pages|/matth3wbishop/docs/html-design-links|html|txt| This page contains some links to pages which I consider to be well designed. Of course its all probably subjective, maybe. * About These Pages|/matth3wbishop/docs/about-web-pages|html|txt| This page contains some brief information about these web pages which you are viewing and how they can be maintained. * A Script Summary|/matth3wbishop/docs/script-summary|html|txt| This page provides short descriptions of the scripts used to make this documentation which you are currently viewing. * The Ametlla Music Festival|/poseidonia/| This site contains information about the Ametlla de Mar music festival which is going to take place on the 15 August 2003.
