similar to: Amazon AMI based on CentOS 5?

I''m looking at using EC2 for hosting deploying my Rails site. The reasons for the decision are these: I want something that will work for 10 users, but with capacity to expand to 10,000,000 if needed. EC2 starts at $15/month (before bandwidth) which seems reasonable even for a site in its infancy. And the costs seem to scale up well, along with the capacity. There isn''t the

Dear All A quick update. I just bundled a 30Gb EBS backed AMI for Windows 64, Revolution R and R64, Deducer,R Commander,Java SDK, Chrome, Open Office, Acrobat Reader.

Hello, are there any best practices for the length of user names? I tend to limit them to 8 characters and to follow the pattern 'first letter of the first name'+'first 7 letters of the last name' (e.g. mbaudier). But people are sometimes frustrated with having their last name truncated and I wonder if limiting the user name to 8 characters is not a kind of superstition coming

Hello, I'm considering buying a second-hand Thinkpad T60 (with 2 GB RAM), as a secondary laptop in order to run CentOS 5 on the field. My main focus is therefore to have something robust, reliable and above all well compatible with CentOS. Hibernate / suspend feature are important to me, because that's the main issue I have with CentOS on other laptops. I have found the following

> Then I hope to finish my tutorial on installing Eclipse > Helios for Centos 5.5 Is there anything special to be done? I just unzipped the SR1 distribution for RCP/RAP developers linux-gtk-x86_64 and it works without problem on an up to date CentOS 5.5 x86_64. (to be more precise: I install it as root under /opt, install some plugins like subclipse and regular users start it from there)

Hello, since I upgraded from CentOS x86_64 5.4 to 5.5, I noticed that Firefox has become significantly slower on GMail (or Google Apps Mail). The page becomes slow to scroll as soon as there are more than a few mails in a conversation (like in a typical CentOS mailing list thread). Did anyone else notice that as well? (I guess that I'm not the only GMail user around) Could I have missed

Hello, I'm currently travelling (in south-eastern Europe) with a netbook (Samsung NC 10) running CentOS 5.4 i386. I frequently try to access internet from bars or hotels (mostly via wireless). Although it works pretty often, it happens quite regularly that in some hotels I cannot access internet from CentOS while it is possible from Windows. This is the case in the hotel where I am currently

Hello, I'm currently setting up a virtualization infrastructure based on CentOS 5.4 x86_64 and KVM. I want to use LVM because of its flexibility, especially the ability to add more disk space to a guest if needed. We are considering using an hardware RAID1 with BBU as the lowest layer. My question is: where is it recommended to put the LVM? 1. On the host only In that case, the guests

La configuración es, esencialmente, de hardware y software. Aparentemente, uno puede crear "configuraciones" con

Greetings, I just found Puppet last night. Really wish that the discovery had been made last month before tons of late night messy bash scripts were written to help boot up an ec2 image.... With very little effort Puppet is now installed on my desktop as a server and one of my staging servers is able to call into the puppetmaster to run a very very simple manifest. So far I am super-
