Were looking to hook up a Lacie 2TB external drive to be our little rdiff-backup volume and we need a usb 2 interface. Can anyone make a suggestion to a good USB2 PCI card for centos? Thanks, James

We have about 4 servers connected to an APC UPS. The UPS only has one UPS connection. So my question is, in a power outage how do i get all my servers to safely shutdown? Do i run a USB hub? Do i write a script on the one machine connected to turn off all the other machines? I'm confused. Jamie

Maybe this is a silly question, but i have a few million files i need to delete but i can't just reformat the volume. Right now the fastest thing i can think of is nice -20 rm -Rf /folder-i-want-to-delete is there a better or faster way to do this? Thanks, Jamie

Does anyone have any idea why this could be happening? The long version We have centos 4.6 installed on 2 different machines, different hardware, different nics. Even on 2 different subnets. I've tried different switches,
