Has anyone had problems accessing random websites since going up to 6.4? Since about the day after I got partly upgraded, if I try to access nytimes.com, or orbitz.com, I get server not found. With a lot of work, I, my manager, and the other admin, found that setting options edns0 in /etc/resolv.conf fixed it - I suspect that the network folks updated their internal nameservers (which are M$) about that time... but... we got this Thurs.

I have some data which is censored and I want to determine the median. Its actually cost data for a cohort of patients, many of whom are still on treatment and so are censored. I can do the same sort of analysis for a survival curve and get the median survival... ...but can I just use the survival curve functions to plot an X axis that is $ rather than date? If not is there some other way to

I have a script that needs to be run, that in some cases will take longer than the server timeout. So, I''m thinking just throw the script in its own thread, but I need to be able to get the data back from that thread and refresh the page with the data returned. Any suggestions how to do this? Thanks, PJ

Hi all I''m trying to set up a separate puppet master and client on EC2. I''ve used two instances of CentOS5.4 with nothing other than the base install and have installed puppet via the ruby gems. Puppet is at 2.6.4 on both machines. I''ve been following the guide to get a basic configuration working (http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/configuring.html) with a little tweak
