Bias in R's random integers?
...nsional phase space. This is then plotted in a graph so that you can visually see if something odd is going on. I used runif(10000, min = 0, max = 65535) to get a set of numbers. This is the resulting plot that was generated from R's numbers using this technique: http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/r-random.jpg And for comparison this was generated by collecting the same number of samples from the bash shell: http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/bash-random.jpg The net result is that it shows some banding in the R generated random numbers where bash has uniform random numbers with...

Bias in R's random integers?
Hello, Top posting. Several people have asked about the code to replicate my results. I have cleaned up the code to remove an x/y coordinate bias for displaying the results directly on a 640 x 480 VGA adapter. You can find the code here: http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/vseq.c To collect R samples: X <- runif(10000, min = 0, max = 65535) write.table(X, file = "~/r-rand.txt", sep = "\n", row.names = FALSE) Then: cat ~/r-rand.txt | ./vseq > ~/r-rand.csv And then to create the chart: library(ggplot2); num.csv <- read.csv("~...

...nted by SELinux), the privileges are dropped as before using permanently_set_uid(). This patch is implemented using libcap-ng [1] library, which is making the use of the Linux capabilities much easier than the native inteface (the patch can build with or without it).

Good Centos Security Advice & Gnome Thumbnails
...for one thing unexpectedly brought me to two good and useful documents: (1) Guide to the Secure Configuration of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 http://www.nsa.gov/ia/_files/os/redhat/rhel5-guide-i731.pdf Revision 4.1 February 28, 2011 (2) Hardening Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/hardening-rhel5.pdf Updated 12 August 2010 Gnome Thumbnail system is mentioned in (1) as dangerous. As many Centos/Red Hat installations use it, here is a brief extract from page 30. 2.2.2.6 Disable All GNOME Thumbnailers if Possible The system?s default desktop environment, GNOME, uses a...

There is an issue, but it is in vseq.c. The plot I found striking was this: http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/r-random.jpg It shows a scatter plot that is bounded to some rectangle where the upper right and lower left corner are empty. Roughly speaking, X and Y correspond to *consecutive differences* between random draws. It is obvious that differences between random draws are bounded by the range o...

puppetlabs-ntp template discussion
Hi guys, As I mentioned in a previous email I''ve refactored ntp and released a 1.0.0 release candidate. There''s one outstanding "flaw" remaining that''s bothering me and I wanted to solicit opinions on the list. We currently maintain a template per distribution that is close to the stock distribution provided ntp configuration. This leads to massive
