I haven't looked at FreeBSD since the 1990's or there abouts, but I'll give it a look. I'm also looking at lubuntu, but was hoping that there was a lcentos. We tend to like what we're used to. I'd be interested in your views on the differences between bacula and Bareos. I do have one Bareos storeage device but tha...

I have an old A1 ISDN card that we used to use in the mid 1990's for the delivery of data to our ISP I have seen some users have been using them, with respect to doing web searches. Can someone please let me know what drivers I require to use this card under debian and with asterix, and what the limitations are of using this card. I dont want to make cal...

Dear all, I would like to employ a European map in a presentation. My idea was to use: library(mapdata) map("worldHires", c("Austria", "Switzerland", "Germany")) where I include all countries from my analysis as a vector of character strings like in the example above. Unfortunately, I was unable to specify the Baltic States (Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia) or

hi everyone, is there a way to add custom mount points at installation point? And if there is would you say /usr should/could go onto a separate partition? many thanks, L.

...e things that DevOps personnel get paid for. I am eternally grateful to the older engineers who *tolerated* and educated me in existing technologies as a new sys-admin back in the day, and hope I paid off their investment with introducing them to tools like Samba for multi-platform work back in the 1990's.

...zed by the arithmetic, > geometric, and harmonic means. In spite of off-topic: I think it is a good question, not really only about geo-chemistry, but about statistics in applied sciences (and engineering for that matter). Something I sure good applied statisticians in the 1980's and 1990's would all know the answer of : To use the geometric mean instead of the arithmetic mean is basically *equivalent* to first log-transform the data and then work with that transformed data: Not just for computing average, but for more relevant modelling, inference, etc. John W Tukey (and se...

Yes, our users' uidNumber range starts from a little over 500. This is baggage from the 1990's.

Hi list, I have a request to integrate Iridium in a Asterisk system. A quick search didn't return much: I expected to find products similar to GSM gateways, but this does not seem to exist. so I'd be very interested about possible solutions. Has it be done already, how? Thanks, -- Jean-Denis Girard SysNux Syst?mes Linux en Polyn?sie fran?aise

There is absolutely no need to include irrelevant text when replying to a posting. Trim and Cut were sensible skills acquired by some of us in the 1980's and 1990's.

This was because /home was not guaranteed to be mounted when the system started up AND people were annoyed with the Unix tradition of having UID 0 with the / as the home directory.

...need --modify-window=2 not 1. But here in the US for half of the year you need --modify-window=3602 instead. The same goes for many other locations. The simple fact of the matter is that FAT is an obsolete filesystem designed for 5.25 inch floppy disks that is not in any way compatible to doing 1990's vintage things. I know there are devices out there that are stuck with FAT but it is the user's job to adapt to their incapabilities not rsync's. Years ago, when I still had a Win98 computer to backup I suggested that rsync should have a --fat option. The --fat option would would h...
