The latest version improves the Login Assistant with a tiny floating window that contains a pulldown menu of your password items. This makes it easy to have access to all your passwords from within any program. This works on the Mac via AppleScript and on Windows via a VBScript. If someone know

Max length of value passed to shell()

Whereas I'm lazy, I thought I'd ask rather than run a test. Is there some limit to the length of the string passed to shell() on any platform, especially OS X, whether by the engine or the shell-command program itself. Or even the typical limitations of utilities themselves. I'm not concerned

Bob, thanks. I am aware of that. The data is not top secret, but should not be free available for everyone. We use other authentication methods for more critical data. Regards, Matthias Am 30.08.2011 um 00:49 schrieb Bob Sneidar: > Not sure, but as you must know, cleartext passwords are easi

Re: [revServer]http authentication -

Not sure, but as you must know, cleartext passwords are easily sniffable. As long as the web site is not serving up private or critical information, I suppose there's no harm, but if it is, then you should consider using https and having a form that gets the credentials. Bob On Aug 29, 2011,

Hi, is revServer able to read/get the username of an http authentication, if username and password are included in the url. for example http://JohnDoe:abcd...@web.com is the url the customer uses to connect to the server. Is it possible for revServer to get the username JohnDoe? Or are user

An easy way around the issue is to always dispatch or send in time to an object belonging to another card. That way you can be sure that the message path flows through the object itself and through all it's parents. Bob On Aug 28, 2011, at 10:34 PM, Timothy Miller wrote: > > On Aug 28, 2011
