@voretaq7 Eh. wasn't that far out then.. I generally figure that with servers you can change the currency symbol between $ and £ and not get any price difference
Where people will get friendly with a youngster to slowly indoctrinate them into abuse...you're grooming them to get close to them and gain their trust. It's not just a UK term.
@Chopper3: Well I am curious if it happened at a reboot or while it was live. It happened quite a while ago and RRD shows the drop before the reboot. But I wonder if just looks like that due to RRD consolidation
In reference to 2U rack hardware, budget but stable, what to buy?
Plus many other similar questions, it has been noted that there's actually nothing in the SF FAQ about asking really localized questions like "What hardware should I buy", or "Which server software should i buy, and which vendor d...
@Jacob ARIN will happily give you all the v6 space you want -- it's even free if you have (ARIN-allocated) v4 space already (otherwise you have to pony up some cash). Getting transit from providers will be a bigger challenge though :)
Also re: an ASN, ARIN should be able to assign you one -- let them know you're setting up an AS and they'll help you through the process. They're generally good people (unless you're asking for IPv4 space - then I suggest wearing full-contact gear)
I've got a copy of the Pulling Strings with Puppet book (written in 2007) but given that it has a bunch of equivocal language, I'm wonder how much has changed since then? I've found this Release Notes page but it doesn't have dates so I don't know where to start (and make for rather dry reading)....
@voretaq7 You have to remember the budget; I hope they'll do it; possibly so they can say like " this 15yr did it... so can you or along the lines of that
@lynxman About 6 months ago I used the book to help me get a better understanding of the basics, and it worked pretty well. You're right, feels way too broad.
I was thinking you'd give your array a foot in each tunnel network and they'd do the same -- if those are unique (and assuming your array & theirs can handle >1 networks) you'd be OK.
@SmallClanger that's a desktop chipset, therefore I personally have no concern at all - edit of course I do get paid by intel to do PR for them so I would say that :)
nope, not yet - not ready yet - and they won't be delayed as they don't have any sata components, they'll be delayed because they go bloody pop within minutes of booting!
I have a Linux server that needs to offer some services to an intranet. There will often be users that are not too familiar with using their laptops in a network environment, and so I'd like to announce the services they can use in an intuitive way. Ideally, when they connect their machines to th...
@Jacob Send out an email announcing what services are available and where. Follow up with a dead-tree memo. Anyone who can't follow that shouldn't be allowed to connect to the network.
@Jacob Grad students tend to be useful for other things.
Some of my favorite incidents to respond to have been systems that, when asked who administered it, "Oh, a grad student set it up 7 years ago and it's just kept running." That rather colors my opinion, unfortunately.
@packs That's an area you really need an interest in to do well. It's hard. Not as hard these days as it was back in '95 when I was playing with it, but still.
I decided to go into the private sector instead of staying in academia to work towards a CSci Masters in Parallel-thingies because I was strictly a C-student in the maths. Parallel computing is very math heavy.
@sysadmin1138 I was dealing on the networks side, he wanted me to build out a kernel module for doing PSS. In concept it seems really cool, but I'm neither theoretical nor enjoy coding. That made it rather hard to get past the notion that it seems really cool in concept...and that's about it.

This would be a production database doing reads and writes. I'm not sure what they're thinking they'd gain by putting it behind a load-balancer. Maybe that just means the Load-balancer admin has to write ACLs not the Firewall admin.
Hello,
we are a small business company with 5.000 employees. Every day we send and receive about 10.000 e-mails.
We want to set up our own Linux-mail-server (Postfix+Cyrus). What is recommended hardware for such needs?
the datacenter was in the city center, as a foreigner you can't go out unescorted, otherwise you can be stabbed just to get money and gadgets out of you
even the hotels have metal detectors in Jakarta :(
