similar to: using a Laptop as a KVM console?

Hello, Are there any KVM over IP switches that are not thousands of dollars? Ideally a 3-4 port switch for a few hundred seems reasonable to me. Mike -- Michael B Allen Java Active Directory Integration http://www.ioplex.com/

My manager reminds me that "in the old Sun days", the ssh server came up first, *before* the fsck on boot, so that if there was a problem, and fsck was waiting for an answer, you could remotely ssh in, kill it, restart it, and answer (or give it the right flags). Does anyone know if it's possible to have that happen with CentOS? It would be nice to have it boot that way, so that if

Hi all I've been thinking about using CentOS on a Dell R200 server and turn it into a firewall / network monitor / traffic shaper in our datacentre, instead of using a dedicated firewall device. One of the devices that I have been looking at, with my limited budget, is the D-Link DFL 860 - http://www.netdefend.eu/Product.aspx?m=15&ref=DFL-860 It provides AV, SPI, VPN, DOS, P2P, etc

HVM = fully virtualized. The question is, why are you using fully virtualized domUs?

Hi, What is the preferred OS to use with XEN, as the dom0 host? We primarely us CentOS (currently 5.6) but it seems that the native XEN that comes with CentOS is a bit behind.

Hi all, Does anyone know what the correct steps are to add a XEN bridge, let''s say xenbr0 to Debian Squeeze? I have added the following to /etc/network/interfaces # XEN Bridge auto xenbr0 iface xenbr0 inet manual bridge ports eth0 bridge_stp off bridge_fd 0 And then rebooted the server but brctl show still shows eth0 as bridge: newusaxen:~# brctl

Hi, One of my servers in a IDC in another country mysteriously went down this morning, and when I contacted the IDC, I was told that XEN doesn''t boot up, as follows: [QUOTE] This is error message on the screen " Error 19: Linux Kernel must be loaded before initrd" Server is currently up with 2nd kernel. Please check the grub.conf. [/QUOTE] Looking at grub.conf, I see the

Hi all If I do a "dig mydomain.co.za" from a Linux server, how do I know which DNS nameserver returns the queries? I seem to have a faulty DNS server, but can't see which one, so I want to find out which nameserver (if there's 4 - ns1.myserver, ns2.myserver, ns3.myserver & ns4.myserver) returns the queries? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Web:

Hi all, Has anyone managed to get CentOS 6 domU (i.e. guest) working on a Debian 6 do0? Both OS''s are 32bit and I''m running XEN 4.0.1 with HVM support. A CentOS 5.6 domU works fine on this very same server though.

If you use any NAS (or a SAN) devices, what do you use? And I''m referring more to larger scale network storage than your home PC or home theater system. We''ve had very good experiences with our NetGear ReadyNAS devices but I''m in the market for something new. The NetGear''s aren''t the cheapest ones around but they do what it says on the box.

Hi, Does anyone know of a stable / working "2way authentication" system for SSH, and even web authentication services? Most of the banks in South Africa have a system that, when you want to make a payment, they send you an SMS and you need to verify the action with a secret code which was SMS'd to you. gmail also has this. Does anyone know of a "universal" plugin /

Sorry about the previous post, I see the subject had a typo. So here's the correct one :) Does anyone know how to configure Postfix to use SMTP authentication on a relay host? i.e. I have a Linux server, running PostFix on an ADSL line with a dynamic IP. Thus I can't just send out emails from this server but need to relay it via our ISP's SMTP server, which is very unreliable. Now
