Hi Some developers here said a long time ago that someone should show the code for LZO compression support for ZFS before talking about the next step. I made that code with a friend and we also made a little benchmark to give a first impression: http://denisy.dyndns.org/lzo_vs_lzjb/ I hope we made no technical error, but if you find something not accurate, we will correct it.

Hi there fellow hackers, geeks and others who want the UNIX desktop to succeed. I bring forward the question whether or not a (freedesktop.org) specification is necessary for application scheduling software. The current UNIX Desktop user does not have an easy way to configure the tasks which he wants to schedule. Sure we have such a utility. And sure we can shout to our Desktop users

Hi all. Can anyone help me with scheduling tasks? I'm running Centos4.2 (updated via yum starting from 4.0). I know I have vixie-cron and anacron packages installed (came like that, from first install, I guess). I read the crontab syntax man page (man 5 crontab) and I made an entry as a normal user (using crontab -e) that looks like the following: 30 0 9 1 1 /bin/ls -F /home/jose >

I'm just starting to learn to use R, and although I'm seeing lots of functions aimed at doing orthodox statistical analyses, I don't see the same for Bayesian analyses. What support does R have for Bayesian statistics?

hi, How can I open crontab with gedit any any other editor ? i want to edit my cron jobs with other editors beside vi.

The docs to installing cfengine refers to /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root That doesn't exist. Nor does /etc/crontab. Heck I remember that from the "old days", now there are lots of cron entries, in /etc but no crontab. Not installed by default. So, I'm hunting that one down. Nate, what did you wind up doing??

Hi, To get my system on time, I usually issue these two commands: # ntpdate de.pool.ntp.org # hwclock -w And when I want this to be done on startup, I put the two lines in rc.local. I wonder if this is an orthodox way to do things. Or is there something more appropriate? Niki Kovacs

Hi. I just setup one of my machines as a DHCP server. I'd like it to handle the hostnames of clients. Don't know if this is an orthodox thing to do (feel free to add your comments :oD). Here's the server's relevant lines of dhcpd.conf: --8<------- ... # Envoyer les noms d'h?tes aux clients use-host-decl-names on; # Adresses statiques host babasse { hardware ethernet

Hi, What's the best/safest way to "cat" the following job into crontab? */3 * * * * /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_megaraid_passive.sh > /dev/null 2>&1 I am used to doing this manually via crontab -e, but now I simply have too many centos servers to build in a given week (get to toss another 120K at some more 2U chenbro/tyan/amd64's -w000ooo). -karlski

Did you restart the crontab service after the change ? If not, crontab wont be aware of the changes. Nassri > rado wrote: > > for some reason, crontab is not picking up a job here > listed.

Hi, I seem to have a problem with crontab. I am running CentOS 5.5. If I add my bakup scripts into crontab they take very long to run. If I run my scripts manually they run 100%. I have also tried vixiecron, same issue. Any ideas? Thanks Jenny -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
