@ewwhite I've never had or seen any problems with SATA over SAS in the FreeBSD world. That's pretty much my exclusive recommendation, if you need to be cheap use SATA disks, but at least stick with SAS controllers. I wonder if Solaris has issues with the SATA Tunnel Protocol or something...
I have various web sites and over the years the file structure and number of files on the server has increased, some of which aren't being used any more.
I want to clean up the files on the web server so only the files currently being used are present.
Is there any software/technique that I c...
So I was going to root Katie's phone so that I could actually install a backup utility. Looks like she just applied an OTA update that has closed the holes the kit uses.
I'm not sure I want to put that effort into it anymore.
@ScottPack That's one reason I got an HTC phone, they officially support you rooting the phones (voids the warranty and they wont help you if your carrier gets mad, but I think that's an acceptable tradeoff)
Speaking of which, I don't think I've done a nandroid in a while.
@ChrisS Probably. This all started because we needed to change the primary account on her phone. Which requires, as near as I can figure out, editing a sqlite file deep in the bowels of /system or issuing a factory reset.
Since right now I have to use the official HTC unlock procedure which allegedly also requires a reset and who is currently having a non-functional website
@ScottPack The unlock absolutely does a factory reset on the phone... So get any contacts or whatever off the phone first.
@JoelESalas Eh, no. The rooted ROM I run just had the root user "unlocked" and the su utility added... There's no weird hacking going on, no crashing services and buffer overruns.
@ChrisS I pretty much went with that path. She's actually happy enough with the AT&T Sense that I'm not going to bother trying to force a change. I've found that's generally a bad idea with any user.
@ScottPack I don't really care if my wife's phone is rooted except rooting makes it east for me to get into the /system partition and delete crap, or update "stock" apps, etc.
@ScottPack Sure, I've thought about putting rsync on our phones to do stupid simple backups at night while they're charging. I've been lazy so far and just do nandroid backups with CWM now and then.
@ChrisS One of my friends went the rsync route. I'm seriously considering it, particularly considering that 90% of what she wants backed up would be pictures and such.
Most of the ROMs for my phone are just rolled up Nandroid backups... Something very akin to a Syspreped Windows image methodology. CWM makes it really easy to switch if I wanted to.
I have a somewhat hazy memory of a knock-off Ghostbusters cartoon which ran around the same time as the "real" ghostbusters cartoon, but my eye time was cheap then, so whatever was on got watched.
@Dan I don't like the bottom heavy fonts, they just look wierd, and I'm used to 'normal' fonts in living in the real world. On the other hand, as a dyslexic I tend to favour sans serif mono fonts. I wantreadregular.com/english/contact.html this font, but I can't seem to find how to get a copy of it
(sorry for the late reply, noticed it when someone referenced something earlier, and I spend a lot of effort actually setting stuff up to be usable for my little brain ;p)
@JourneymanGeek having a compiler does not go against maintainability. it's called discipline you damn linux bitches - don't MAKE me whip you with the cat6-o-nine-tails!
@JourneymanGeek Ah. I don't have the resources to muck about with strange stuff like nginx. My users aren't demanding but it absolutely must work all the time without any hiccups or hassle.
@voretaq7: no, it dosen't. But its between maintaining one peice of software and periodically checking it for updates, vs just throwing it in the system and letting the package manager handle it.
@Adrian Gotcha. It's been many, many years since I did QA testing. At the time Rational Robot [long since acquired] was the weapon of choice. I'm sure there's merit [and PAY] in it all, but Christ was it numbing.
Can anyone explain to me in layman what's SSH (Secure Shell) in a shared hosting?
I know you can access the web hosting server remotely using a command line interface using an application like Putty. But does it give you have more access to the server or it's another way of creating directories ...
@voretaq7 QA testing isn't about uncovering bugs, it's about making sure the software meets the [Ill defined and obtuse] spec/requirements. THAT IS ALL SIR.
@jscott yeah. still havent gotten to all the stuff i shouldve done last winter. I did get me old VF1100S running though, so all it needs is a clutch slave rebuild so that it doesn't lean clutch fluid.
@MarkHenderson Yeah. It's been like that for a while. A lot of it, several years ago, because I was really scrambling to "make up for lost time." I felt like I slacked in my teens and early twenties so I hammered the books hard to get knowledge, and also to get certified.
@MarkHenderson Now, it's to try and get my business going and being profitable.
@Adrian Nope. =( A lot of it is trying to get a business plan and model down. OR tracking down people that are somewhat interested in using me. Also, now a decent amount of time is going towards a place that I'm now have a percentage of ownership in. Sweat equity. Maybe... 4 hours a day of unbillable time.
But still, that's only three months old. A lot of my time has been tracking down ideas, possibilities, people who are interested in me (but never seem to want to pay market wages)
So... I dunno. Been in something of a wuarter life crisis for a little while.
@MarkHenderson Yeah. I'd be happy with... $75 an hour consistently. Even that is hard.
I need to build out some hosted services, and I've got enough money saved up now to where I can make a decent go at something. Colocation space focused on local businesses here in Phoenix seems like a great idea.
All I can really say is that shit happens. If it's bad, downvote it.
from How can I list my open ports on Debian?
if "-10 votes" isn't a signpost, there's very little else we reasonably can do. Oh, and:
This is caused when there is other service running on this port 443. We have to check what is the service running on it and shutdown and then restart the apache. To check what service running on port 443 use below command
nmap localhost
Well, I kind of shooed them away today... but everything I've learned needs to be put into something so the next person can pick it up cleanly and fast. We've got everything in a wiki which did a good job of explaining things for the first 48 hours I was there. Unfortunately, it's not quite enough. The really handy scripts are things that sometimes just appear in trunk or are sitting in somebody's home directory, or the magically sometimes working build system... which sometimes magically fails
Or my favorite, "Did you read the README file?"... No... :(
E.G., I coded up a script that hard links all the RPM files between code branches to make my branches take up less space and update RPMs faster. I really don't want to spend a few more hours idiot-proofing it for the next person so they don't have issues and can use it. It will probably never go in our repository.
@Adrian I tried that meeting with our QA build system. It went more along the lines of, "Let's try to identify where you're stuck" rather than, "Let's put resources at really building a shining piece of work that is full of solid tests."
As the Joel test goes, we do number 3 and yet fail hard at #2.
@Adrian Well, they all are doing a good job of asking me questions and having drive on their own... I just haven't been able to have enough time for them while tackling my own projects.
@JeffFerland Yeah. Going through that with one of mine. It's been a tough road and I hope that the padawan can come closer to Up to Speed before the probationary period ends.
