Ubuntu GDM Auto Login

Do you want to auto login a remote computer to Gnome using SSH? I will setup VNC but forget to setup auto login and realize this after I reboot the computer.

# edit gnome preferences
sudo pico /etc/gdm/gdm.conf

# edit gdm.conf and add the user you want to auto login
AutomaticLoginEnable=true
AutomaticLogin=branflake2267

# this will log you in
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart

How to Get Date/Time in/with GWT

* get a unix time stamp since the epoch
* get year, month, today, date, hours, minutes seconds


//Get the browsers date (!!!note: I can't get gmt time zone in eclipse debugger)
Date date = new Date();
int Month = date.getMonth();
int Day = date.getDate();
int Year = date.getYear();
int Hour = date.getHours();
int min = date.getMinutes();
int sec = date.getSeconds();
int tz = date.getTimezoneOffset();
int UnixTimeStamp = (int) (date.getTime() * .001);

//get unix time stamp example (seconds)
Long lTimeStamp = date.getTime(); //time in milleseconds since the epoch
int iTimeStamp = (int) (lTimeStamp * .001); //(Cast) to Int from Long, Seconds since epoch
String sTimeStamp = Integer.toString(iTimeStamp); //seconds to string

//get the gmt date - will show tz offset in string in browser, not eclipse debug window
String TheDate = date.toString();

//render date to root panel in gwt
Label label = new Label(TheDate);
RootPanel.get().add(label);

Encoding URL delimiters (for GWT)

This is what I do to encode a parameter for my querystring:


publicstatic String encodeUrlDelimiters(String s) { if (s == null) { returnnull;     }     s = s.replaceAll(";", "%2F");     s = s.replaceAll("/", "%2F");     s = s.replaceAll(":", "%3A");     s = s.replaceAll("\\?", "%3F");     s = s.replaceAll("&", "%26");     s = s.replaceAll("\\=", "%3D");     s = s.replaceAll("\\+", "%2B");     s = s.replaceAll("\\$", "%24");     s = s.replaceAll(",", "%2C");     s = s.replaceAll("#", "%23"); return s; }
This is how I use it: private String getGoogleLoginUrl() { if (cp.getAccessToken() == null && cp.getAccessToken().getThirdPartyLoginData() == null) { returnnull;     }     String domain = GWT.getHostPageBaseURL();     String path = Window.Location.getPath();     String qs = Window.Location.getQueryStrin…
