I sometimes need to allow sub-contracted admins root ssh access to my servers. Later, I always wonder what they did during access. Is there any shell that provides all shell abilities to the remote user but monitors/emails a designated user each command executed in the shell terminal and does not allow the user (even root) to modify the bash history file or similar shell history file, or maybe

Since I want to run it under a Zope page I made a Zope "external method" to run the script through a Python module.

Hello All I made the mistake of assuming all Intel motherboards would be Linux compatible out of the box and bought one without checking support information.

However, you really should grab some older or cheaper hardware and install Xen directly on the hardware - it will be very, very slow running inside parallels. 2) There really isn''t

Hello all, I have just testen Xen on my Fedora machine. Would like to test Xen on a Centos machine for production use evaluation.
