@ewwhite We want to upgrade our pentest lab equipment, I was wondering if HP Storageworks are performant enough to run virtual machines off? We would fill them up with 24 SATA disks
There are two external enclosures... the D2700 and 2600, with 25 x 2.5" bays or 12 x 3.5" bays.
unless you're talking about the SAN devices, like the P2000 G3. That's a standalone SAN, while the D2700 and D2600 are intended to be connected directly to a server.

@ewwhite It's just "oh, I turned off transparent hugepages and look ma, it worked!" Doesn't explain why it worked. Or get any closer to the real problem...
it's the sign of an experienced sysadmin - even as someone who's worked with windows more than *nix, I still find myself resorting to it more than a few times.
If you have to do this, and you have to be in a really bad place to even think about doing this...
It's safest to copy the partitions individually. For instance:
dd if=/dev/sdb1 | ssh user@host "dd of=sdb1.img"
dd if=/dev/sdb2 | ssh user@host "dd of=sdb2.img"
Wait a few minutes or hours for t...
@Chopper3 bought the Bioshock double pack on the weekend to play through and prepare for Infinite - the first one may be a couple of years old but it still looks sweet.
@Chopper3 I think my dad would like ARMA3 - I showed him a video where a player used the ARMA2 map editor to spawn in a ton of tanks, choppers and airplanes and watch them duke it out. Spectacular, to say the lest.
@tombull89 yeah, son loves it, really plays to how he is, he showed my daughter how to play it and she just filled a field with animals and one minigun :)
yeah, much better today thanks, very weak physically, but less tired, mouth's very metalic today and my stomach's far from right but yeah, on the way up
I learned a new word yesterday. I love it when that happens. The word is hamartia, and although it's often used to describe a hero's key weakness, Isabel Hyde refers to Humphrey House's work (among others), and says that modern (as of the 1960s) scholars interpret the use of hamartia as being, an error which [...]
Windows Server 2008 R2 appears to be hanging while loading the OS.
The server gets to the welcome screen and appears to be loading, but this process for 20-30 mins before the OS loads. The screen also displays the message "setting user profile" while loading. The system only started running slow...
So on Friday (afternoon, natch) our entire datacenter went offline. Catastrophic storage failure. Over the weekend, the HDS team looking at the firmware bug tells us to stop doing volume creation or allocation. This morning, the very expensive (and seemingly underqualified) consultant from HDS shows up ready to start "helping" with migrations.
I'm going back home.
He can't do anything until we resume migrations, and we can't do that until we get the box to stop screwing up
@trhaynes it's working great for me :) Though I'm a bit disappointed that it doesn't integrate properly with ssh key based auth (forwards etc. are set up before duo auth)
@trhaynes maybe it could hook into AuthorizedKeysCommand? Don't know if the AuthorizedKeysCommand can do challenge/responses, but at least it's in the authentication phase.
How would I build a large scale (1M+ inboxes) email system out of standard products or open-source components?
I am not interested in the Oracle-type solutions.
Ideally, I would like a solution that scales horizontally i.e. symmetrical architecture where we just add some servers for more inboxes.
I liked SquirrelMail when there was nothing else small scale like it around. RoundCube can use a SQLite DB now though. Much prettier interface and functionally at least as good as SM.
That's pretty close to the default configuration of RC
You probably want SMTP authentication for sending e-mails, but RC doesn't judge if you want to run an open relay.
I also like TLS... CalDAV and CardDAV are on my list of things I'd like to work on if I ever have that much free time.
It'd probably work out quite well for society on the whole if I did something dumb, got put in prison for a while, sat there and just coded the whole time... I wonder if they'd let me have a computer in my cell.
I am having a very frustrating time configuring the IPMI interface on a Supermicro box.
Unfortunately with IPMI it is not always clear which interface is being used by the BMC. The Supermicro Embedded BMC Manual says that the active interface is determined during the initial power up:
Note 1...
@ewwhite @MDMarra Hot market or no, I would never waive the inspection. I've seen places that looked great, and post-inspection the report essentially said "I think this building should be condemned."
I pick up after myself daily. I straighten out the livingroom and bedroom at the end of every day and turn the dishwasher on every night before bed. The kitchen and bathroom get cleaned every sunday
I've also taken to piling all of the shit that Katie leaves around the apartment in front of her dresser so she has to put it away in the morning before she can get clothed and go to work
@mossy Happened to one of my friends - she created some publicity material for the gym she went to, to find it ripped off and used by a rivial gym and a number of blogs due to the picture in her designer profile coming up on 1st page of google image results.
I have two accounts on Windows 7. I can set one account to auto-login. How can i make the second account login also the same time? Now i need to switch to the second account and switch back to the first one to do this.
Yes, It is possible. According to me Nginx is more flexible, light loaded server than Apache. I am personally using Nginx to run php-fpm.
