I unscrew the casing, extract the disk platter(s), slide a very strong magnet over both sides of the platter surface then bend the platter in half. How secure is that ? I can't afford a machine that

DBAN is obsolete. NIST 800-88 for some time now says to use secure erase or enhanced security erase or crypto erase if supported. Other options do not erase data in remapped sectors. Chris Murphy

I'm trying to get a script working on a website to send out automatic email reminders to customers reminding them monthly to change furnace filters. I haven't got one running successfully, yet. That made me think - could it be done with a phone call using Asterisk? A monthly automated phone call to remind people to change their furnace filter? I have no ability to figure this out

I am wondering if there is any such thermostat available which can be controlled from Asterisk. Like you call your home pbx, dial some extension, e.g. 333 and it asks to set the temperature, you enter a temperature, and it sets the thermostat to that temperature. This thermostat will be very useful, e.g. when you're coming back home after a few days and now its snowing and you want home to be

I thought I would give the new IMAP support a spin on my home server, but without much luck so far. Asterisk 1.4.0 Dovecot 0.99.14 Maildir format C-client 2006d The imap server is also the Asterisk server, so connections are on the localhost. The error posted to the logs is: IMAP Error: Can't open mailbox {127.0.0.1:143/imap/authuser=root//user=dan_austin}INBOX: invalid remote specification

Hi All, Running Samba on a Fedora 4 machine in a mixed home environment. Domain=[HOME-NETWORK] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.14a-2] Trying unsuccessfully to mount the dir that's on hdb1 on another Fedora 4 machine. Can mount any dir from hda just fine. Only problem is the one on hdb1. File permissions and everything else I can think of checking is identical. Just refuses to mount hdb1. Here

dear R wizards: while extolling the virtues of R, one of my young econometrics colleagues told me that he still wants to run ox because [a] his code is written in it (good reason); [b] because ox seems to be faster than R in most benchmarks (huh?). this got me to wonder. language speed can't matter much, so it must be mostly the underlying matrix algebra by now. I presume that nowadays

a customer of mine needs a UPS capable of supporting a small server in his office. Obviously, nut is a good thing for him for clean shutdown etc. especially with the crappy quality power in his office condo. I wanted to purchase an MGE UPS but it looks like they purchased APC and are now flogging that product line. Now, I've never been happy with APC. I have an APC 3000 (sans

Hi All, I''m using iptables-1.2.7a on RedHat8 kernel 2.4.20. I wanted to limit the file-sharing traffic to the internet. I marked the packets with iptables: iptables -A FORWARD -t mangle -p tcp -s 192.168.1.1/24 -d ! 192.168.1.1/24 --dport 1024:1862 -j MARK --set-mark 1 iptables -A FORWARD -t mangle -p tcp -s 192.168.1.1/24 -d ! 192.168.1.1/24 --dport 1864:65535 -j MARK --set-mark 1

So i?m using dovecot, and i created a self signed certificate with mkcert.sh based on dovecot-openssl.cnf. The name in there matches my mail server. The first time it connects in mac mail however, it says the certificate is invalid and another server might pretend to be me etc. I then have the option of trusting it. Is this normal behaviour? Will it always be invalid if it?s not signed by a

Hello, I had an idea last week: why shut everything off (in my basement) when the power goes off (and run time goes below X minutes)? My idea: shutdown the big stuff first (two servers) leaving the little stuff (switches, wireless, gateway) running for a while longer. I might get another 30 minutes of internet that way. Let me watch a bit more streaming?. I?m convinced that idea is achievable

This is a newb question, and probably one that is a matter of taste more than objective merit. I''m working on a home server, running Linux [FC 4], hosting a website [look for generocities.com shortly]. I have a delightful new Windows XP Pro Dell Inspiron 9300 laptop. What would the community recommend for the environment in which I develop? I don''t mean technologies like RoR

I persuaded a reluctant friend to buy a new computer. I enthusiastically extolled the joys and benefits of Centos and promised to install it on his new machine - dual booting with Micro$oft Windoze 7. His super-duper new laptop arrived. Acer, AMD 4 core, fast etc. but not as nice looking as my impressive HP DV5. The wireless refused to connect. After 8 hours on Saturday I could sometimes see

Dear All, I am a novice user of the R software package. When I try and compute, exp(-1000) or exp(-2000), i get the answer as zero. Is there any way i can get R to compute the answer and give me an actual number ? ( by increasing the precision or any other method). If I cannot get R to give me a number, can anybody give me some advice on how to manually compute this number ? I would greatly

I have a small LAN in my basement, with my PC running RH5 Linux and a Win95 PC connected by Samba. Everything works fine, but when I smbmount a CD (burned with xcdroast) from the Linux box (CD is in the Win95 machine) I do not get the proper filenames. All files are uppercase, and the TRANS.TBL files appear to be ignored. I have tried playing with name mangling, but it didn't help. Is this a

Hello I'm sure someone has already tried this: I use a couple of electric heaters to heat my office. I'd like to somehow connect them to Asterisk so that I could switch them on remotely by either calling the IVR or sending an e-mail to the Asterisk host, so that the room is warm when I get to the office :-) Any information appreciated. Thank you.

I do a bunch of "kindness of strangers" hosting in my basement and my three kVA apc unit died recently. In looking around, it looked like Belkin was a reasonable low-end replacement for a few machines. Then I read this mailing list after I purchased one and was gifted another. It looks like people don't like Belkin. ;-) So the question is what's a good UPS for running
