similar to: NTFS is more resilient than ext3? Or is it hardware issue?

Hi All. Yesterday I was installing Centos 5.5 to my web server, and it looks like the main hard drive has gone AWOL. Fedora 12 put the file system into r/o mode. The drive is an Hitachi, still under warranty. There are bad sectors on it, and running the Hitachi DFT tool confirms this. Also I cannot repair the bad sectors. Would this be caused by a faulty I/O chip, or is it safe to say

Hello, I''m not able to mount a HPFS/NTFS domU partition. My system: dom0 is on a debian (Lenny) machine, using xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-i386 Xen Hypervisor. domU is a Windows XP machine, that works well. My target is to mount file system domU machine (when domU is not active). In my domU configuration file I have: disk = [''phy:/dev/virtual_machines/xp_disk,hda,w'',

Hi, I am not an engineer or linux expert but I have been using syslinux to boot live disk filesets (extracted from iso's) residing on fat32 and NTFS volumes. In FAT32 there has been no problem going with larger cluster sizes up to the nominal maximum of 64K however, with NTFS it has not been possible to exceed the cluster size of 4096. With NTFS formatted using clusters of 8192 or larger,

Hi all, Sorry for the OT. I've got an IBM N3300-A10 NAS. It runs Data Ontap 7.2.5.1. The problem is, from the docs it says that it only supports either RAID-DP or RAID4. What I want to achieve is Max Storage Capacity, so I change it from RAID-DP to RAID4, but with RAID4, the maximum disk in a RAID Group decrease from 14 to 7. In the end, either using RAID-DP or RAID4, the capacity is the same.

The following comment in win/syslinux.c seems fairly innocent: /* Map the file (is there a better way to do this?) */ So I?ve got an ?ntfssect? git repository going: http://git.zytor.com/?p=users/sha0/ntfssect.git;a=summary Hopefully Paulo can plug its functions into his NTFS working repository. It appears that we?ll have to take one path (in the Windows installer) for FAT and one path

This miscellaneous patch adds bindings for: - ntfsfix - ntfsclone - ntfslabel and unifies filesystem label setting through a single API 'set-label' which replaces 'set-e2label' and is also able to set labels on NTFS using the ntfslabel program. 'ntfsfix' has been added as a possible way to fix RHBZ#797760. However I have not found a way to fully fix this bug. See

Hi all, A friend of mine gives me a copy of Centos5 DVD. I then make an iso of it using dd if=/dev/cdrom of=centos5.iso command. I then check it using sha1sum. But the result is different than of listed in Centos website. Should it the same? Or we simply cannot compare sha1sum from burned DVD to that of 'unburned' iso file?

Hi all, Is it possible to send mail from CLI (bash, python) without any LOCAL SMTP installed, using SMTP on another machine. Care to give a glimpse of the code? Thank you.

Hi everyone! I''ve been reading this list for a while and I''m thinking that the best way to do backups is using LVM snapshots as discussed here several times. The problem is that when i use a LVM logical volume as windows disk, windows writes the partition table onto the LV so the LV itself is not a partition - it''s a whole disk. lvm/device-mapper does not create the

Hi all, Has anyone encountered this: On ServerA, I make this directory: /var/ftp/pub/userA with ownership root.root It gets rsynced to serverB with this command: rsync -avzgorp --delete -e ssh /var/ftp/pub/ root at serverB:/var/ftp/pub/ However, when I change the ownership of /var/ftp/pub/userA to userA.userA, this change is not rsync-ed to serverB. Is there any option to achieve this? Thank

Hello all, In the network there is already a W2K server serving as DHCP server for the network. Then we want to implement LTSP, so we need to setup another DHCP server, right? Due to unexpected reason (little by little migration of w98 clients to LTSP), we need to keep the W2K server running in that network. Can we then have 2 DHCP server in the same subnet, only serving pre-determine clients

Hi all, As long as I can remember reading various articles/docs, they all say that telnet is not secure because all traffic is in clear text.
