Hi, An offtopic quesiton, but I could not think of asking any other list where it might be answered. I have a client uploading a few designs (25-30 Mbs) daily at a remote ftp server. We download them in morning. Since we have a slow connection we daily waste a couple of hours downloading it. Is there any way I can download them at night. The only thing is that I am not sure of the time they

Hi, I am taking my machine loaded with Mandrake 10.0 and Suse 9.1 to my friend''s place. She has 2 different ISP providing pppoe connections in her office. She has allowed me try load balancing on my machine on Sunday. I just wanted to know does lartc stand good with pppoe? I have heard conflicting opinions on the same. I do not want to patch my kernel at all for it. Is it possible

Hi, I have 2 ftp servers with 3 identical users. I want server B to be updated of server A. Whatever changes mmade by users on server A should be made on server B say every 5 hours. Is rsync the right tool to use here? Can rsync be used such that only changed files are downloaded? Thanks a lot and bye.

Hi :) As I'd say in French "de rien !" (you're welcome :)) Yes, you can use PAM to redirect the system authentication calls to your LDAP directory, but in reality samba will continue to use two types of accounts : the "posixAccount"s (same as /etc/passwd) and the "sambaSamAccount"s. Everything will be stored in you LDAP directory, but Samba still needs two

My NFS server is on 192.168.10.10, with the following setup in /etc/exports: /backup 192.168.10.0/24(rw) Then, form a client (192.168.10.11), I run mount 192.168.10.10:/backup /bck, but get the following error: root at vps01 [~]# mount 192.168.10.10:/backup /bck mount.nfs: Input/output error On the main server, I see this in /var/log/messages: Mar 8 08:42:52 venus kernel: kjournald starting.

Hi, Is it possible to use more than one default route? I believe yes. Any comments on them. If I use more than one, where will the trafficc be diverted from?

Hi, My branch office as got a 256Kbps b/w from their service provider at a very very high rate per Mb. They don''t require 256Kbps at all but the ISP does not offer anything low. Can we restrict the bandwith to say 64Kbps nothing fancy? How do I go about it? With warm regards, -Payal

Hi, I have 2 interfaces - one for adsl and other for LAN on my Linux gateway machine. The IP addresses are 10.10.10.3 & 192.168.10.101 respectively. Now my routing tables show this particular entry. What exactly is this? 169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0 scope link Or by traditional route -n, 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 What exactly is this 169.254.0.0/16

Hi, A friend of mine has 2 lines of 512kbps terminated in two Linux boxes. He now want to remove those 2 boxes and have some device which will loadbalance the two ISPs and also have a failover arrangement. But he has agreed to give me a chance to do it on Linux for my own satisfication. Is this easy to do with lartc? How do I go about it exactly? I have very less time to do it since his

Hi, The other day I went to my friend''s company where her local LAN IP was 37.0.0.8 I was pretty shocked since that IP is not for internal use. So, I asked her system admin about it and he muttered something about classless IP range and went off. Was he right in giving such a range to internal IPs? Also, the netmask was 255.255.255.0 and the default gateway was 37.0.1.x. Is this

I have two hosts as Xen Server named host A and host B in the same network. A VM is created on Host A. Host A and B have a shared storage using NFS. While doing migration from host A to host B, how can I see the memory pages being migrated. If I run a small continuous program on the VM residing on host A, will the migration complete first or the sript running will complete first? How can I see

Next week are going to start using rsync "live" to mirror our primary and secondary web servers. I am still trying to iron out a couple of bugs, any help would be much apprecitated.

Hello all, The question is not necessarily CentOS-specific - but there are lots of bright people on here, and - quite possibly - the final implementation will be on CentOS hence I figured I'd ask it here. Here is the situation. I need to configure a Linux-based network load balancer (NLB) solution. The idea is this. Let us say I have a public facing load balancer machine with an public IP

Hello, I am trying wondershaper-1.1a on a friend''s pppoe connection on her Linux box. There are a few things I don''t understand. 1. She has pppoe connection so should DEV=eth0 or DEV=ppp0 ? 2. Her ISP just says on her payment bill that the speed is 128kbps, but doesn''t mention any downlink/uplink speed, so in that case what should be, DOWNLINK= and UPLINK= ? 3. She
