While on entry to xs_unwatch, there may be an event on its way from xenstored (eg in the ring or in the local kernel), all such events will definitely come before the reply to the unwatch command. So at the point where the unwatch reply has been processed (after xs_talkv), any such now-deleted watch events will definitely have made it to libxenstore''s queue where we can remove them. As

Hi everyone, I have a licencing question : do one need to buy CAL for every user in a Samba4 domain when there is a Windows Server as a domain member, knowing that the Windows server will be accessed using SMB by Windows workstations? As per http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch01.html and many other web sites, one of the main advantage of samba is that no user CALs are required. And I

The proposed settlement in the Microsoft antitrust trial will probably be accepted by the judge unless a lot of people complain soon, even though it lacks any useful enforcement provisions and fails to prohibit many of Microsoft's anticompetitive practices. I've drafted an open letter to the Department of Justice to explain why the proposed settlement should not be accepted; it's at

Heineken NV and Carlsberg A/S may be fined after the European Commission charged that they conspired to curb competition in the Dutch and Danish beer markets from 1993 to 1996. The European Union's antitrust regulator said evidence collected in raids two years ago showed the two brewers broke EU law by agreeing not to sell ``intensively'' in each other's territory.

I saw your post and read the replies with great interest. Did you draw any conclusions from the /. replies? Where do you think you might go with the licensing issues for embedded systems? I would vote for the BSD license approach myself. Here's another licensing question. Your source code lays out the functionality of the FLAC codec and the file formats. What if someone comes along

Story: Linux systemd Affected by Memory Corruption Vulnerabilities, No Patches Yet (bleepingcomputer.com) 286 Posted by msmash on Thursday January 10, 2019 @01:00PM from the call-the-IT dept. Major Linux distributions are vulnerable to three bugs in systemd, a Linux initialization system and service manager in widespread use, California-based security company Qualys said late yesterday.

We can't do that until we provide a reasonable way for SMB1 clients to connect, probably via a SMB1 -> SMB2 proxy based on the NTVFS file server (where we had such a prototype until very recently). It won't be perfect SMB1, but needs to be enough for basic operation. I'm quite convinced Samba and SMB1 are critical infrastructure in many places and while we may dislike SMB1 for

I may not agree with everything they say, such as ISPConfig (I prefer webmin) but this tutorial offers a "step by step opportunity for newbies". Does this indicate that CentOS is now a "mainstream" distro? (Technically speaking its not CentOS 4.3 but CentOS 4 Update 3 but we are not into semantics).
