I have installed xcp/xen on ubuntu 12.04 server using the instructions found here: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/XCP_toolstack_on_a_Debian-based_distribution It seems to be running correctly and I can access it using XenCenter and create and run vm''s. However, the keyboard doesn''t work in the vm console. The mouse works fine, but no keyboard. I have tried a vm with Windows 7 64

I was having a discussion with a MS person about the performance of NT. I got this reply: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- By the way, I looked into that claim that Linux could outperform NT server, and my source claimed that the test was done on different hardware (i.e. it was rigged) and that Linux still loses to NT on equivalent HW, although "it has gotten closer." Do you

Hello. I once read somewhere that it's possible to limit SSH pubkeys to 'tunnel-only'. I can't seem to find any information about this in any of the usual places. I'm going to be deploying a few servers in a couple of days and I'd like them to log to a central server over an SSH tunnel (using syslog-ng) however I'd like to prevent actual logins (hence

Builds of the R-2.0.0 release have been considerably more successful at my site than previous releases. I now have it installed on these platforms: Apple PowerPC G3 267MHz GNU/Linux 2.4.19-4a (Yellow Dog Linux release 2.3 (Dayton)) Compaq Alpha Sierra OSF/1 5.1 Compaq/DEC Alpha OSF/1 4.0F Intel Itanium-2 GNU/Linux Red Hat Linux Advanced Server release 2.1AS (Derry) Intel Pentium II FreeBSD

I have asked this before in -questions but due to a odd security requirement, I need the option to auto lock a normal user's account (root and those in the wheel group must be excluded) after let say, 3, login failures. I know this can cause a DoS issue but I HAVE to have the option of doing it in FreeBSD. Any info is appreciated Thanks. Mike C carlson39@llnl.gov

These source addresses are likely spoofed, but am still curious whether other FreeBSD admins saw a preponderance of DNS probes originating from Microsoft corp subnets ahead of the recent ISC bind vulnerability announcement?

What would be a good POP daemon to use? I know there are a few in the mail ports. Are they any good? What I mean by good is 'secure as possible' (is there really such thing as being totally secure / invulnerable?) Cheers

Hi there, I've been a happy djbdns+tinydns user for many, many years. I want to keep using it, so answers of the form "bletch! Use ISC BIND the way BSD intended" will be ignored :-) Having said that, one annoying consequence of my transition some time ago to using ntpd, rather than just setting the clock once-off with ntpdate as I used to, is that the /etc/rc.d mechanism starts

Good Day! I think we have a serious problem. One of our old server running FreeBSD 4.9 have been compromised and is now connected to an ircd server.. 195.204.1.132.6667 ESTABLISHED However, we still haven't brought the server down in an attempt to track the intruder down. Right now we are clueless as to what we need to do.. Most of our servers are running legacy operating systems(old
