Hello all, I''ve recently observed some strange behaviour on several DomU (spread over several xen setups). While I''ve found a few reports on similar issues, the discussions were fairly old and discontinued without providing a cause or solution. Every once in a while (sometimes with an interval of several months) I get a "host down" alert for a guest host. The host is

I am sending an email from my machine devcentos5x64. the transcript below (hangs for 60 seconds) at the line: MAIL From:<root at devcentos5x64.msgnet.com> SIZE=56 AUTH=root at devcentos5x64.msgnet.com The email succeeds - but I am trying to figure out the 60 second delay.

To continue here with problems on this compaq v2000 laptop, I put kernel source on a USB disk and plugged it into the v2000. NOTHING IS recognized. I tried to manually mount the disk and nothing either... I thought USB was well established.... I thought trying to recompile the kernel for realtek support might get my networking going... I am stuck??? Jerry -------------- next part

I need to (occasionally) automatically drop out of X11 mode, recompile something, and then reboot. I can drop out of X11 with "init 3", works fine. I use "chvt 1" to ensure I am on virtual terminal 1 My recompile and reboot also work. The piece that doesnt work is: make | tee $LOGFILE I was expecting the output (stdout) to be virtual terminal 1. My LOGFILE has all commands

What might I look at changing to ensure my

Here is a puzzle. I have a network with several servers. It''s a mess. It''s a /24 and pieces and servers are all over the place inside this /24 block, on both sides of the firewall. For example, the router at 1.2.3.1 is outside the firewall and many of the servers at 1.2.3.nnn/24 are behind the firewall. (Obviously, 1.2.3.nnn is a fudged network.) eth0 points outward to
