Hello dear list! Just wanted to tell you that there's a simple and somehow smart backup solution using rsync named ccollect [0]. It uses the hardlink feature of rsync to create fullbackups with only minor size differences (it uesd cp -al and pax before). I would be happy for any critic about the software, the documentation the configuration style (cconfig [1]) and the idea itself. Sincerly

Hello guys! I'm thinking about using rsync with multiple times --link-dest= specified in ccollect [0]. Now I'm wondering about the performance and memory usage: - How much more memory will rsync use for every --link-dest= parameter? - How heavy do you expect it to influence performance with every additional --link-dest= parameter? In general I think that rsync could either - use

Hello guys! I'm doing a middle scale backup job using ccollect [0], which uses rsyn, with about 50 servers, each about 1-10 GiB changes per day and have some problems, that servers do not finish their backup completly: [host1.backup] Read from remote host host1.backup: Connection reset by peer [host1.backup] rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (41306592 bytes received so far) [receiver]

Can anyone comment / expand upon http://www.nico.schottelius.org/blog/puppet-sometimes-loads-a-class/ I am experiencing a case which may be related. We have an ENC, and recently on our twice daily noop runs from cron, puppet has reported some servers aren''t in sync because they do not have a certain module/class (dns_server) even though they are not subscribed to the dns_server module in

Good evening gentlemen, the attached patch against openssh 6.2p1 exposes remote forwarding ports to the remote shell: targethost % ssh -R 1234:localhost:22 controlhost controlhost % echo $SSH_REMOTE_FORWARDING_PORTS 1234 targethost % ssh -R 0:localhost:22 controlhost controlhost % echo $SSH_REMOTE_FORWARDING_PORTS 54294 targethost % ssh -R 0:localhost:22 -R

Good morning, I was wondering what you think about SNI (server name indication) support to OpenSSH? Background: SSH is one of the rare protocols in the data center that cannot be easily load balanced, proxied or made highly available. If the ssh client would indicate to which host it wants to connect to, a proxy or load balancer could easily be implemented. While this is an obvious feature for

Good morning puppets, as stated for reallife, "one always meets more than one time", this is true for puppet and me: Although I''m migrating away from puppet [0] to cdist [1], a customer requests a new puppet installation. This brings me again to the question on how to bootstrap a new puppet infrastructure, which we did with a shell script or a Debian package and then running

perhaps the boot-from-cdrom code in Smart Boot Manager?

Hi gang, I recently set up a smb server on rh7.2 to be able to share files with my 2k boxes. I am able to see the Linux smb server via network neighborhood on the win2k boxes but cannot connect. I get a path not found error. Can anyone give me a few pointers where the problem may be and how to fix? Thanks in advance for all replies. tt

hpa etal, Im trying to get PIRT running on an SBC which has no CD-ROM drive. (an 8 MB ISO which demo's RTAI - RealTime Application Interface, on linux patched with Adeos) (BTW, PIRT uses isolinux) anyway, Im trying to use pxelinux to chainload / memdisk / mboot it, Im having no success. Ive also tried booting memtest86, which I can boot on my laptop using grub, ie title memtest

I have just released SYSLINUX 3.00-pre9. The only change versus 3.00-pre8 is that the MEMDISK query API now reports the boot loader ID byte, per Bernd's suggestion. This is a release candidate, and I plan to release it as 3.00 *tomorrow*, unless I hear back anything bad. -hpa

I would like to develop a system where by I can boot any of the machines on my system - and select from a menu what I would like that particular client to do. For example, maybe load a bootdisk image from a network share, and boot that. Or boot the first partition on the local disk.

Package: klibc-utils Version: 1.5.15-1 Hello! I'm trying to boot Debian from a different nic than the first one. After some digging into klibc and initramfs, it seems like DEVICE=all in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf is near a solution (I cannot reliable tell, which name the nic has, it may be eth0, eth1, eth2, eth3, ...; as I've machines with one to four nics). /scripts/functions
