G'day. I am trying to get a very old Solaris 5.7 server to ftp data to my updated CentOS 5.4 server but the Solaris box keeps losing networking after sending some data. I can't ping the Solaris box from any of the servers on my network. Could this be related to a much newer (modern) TCP/IP stack in Linux and TCP options? If so, does anyone have any suggestions for how I can tune the

I just updated and rebooted a VM host server which runs CentOS 6.5/x86_64. After rebooting, I can't start the virtual-manager due to the error: Error starting Virtual Machine Manager: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ [^]

I am building QT 4.8.6 on CentOS 5 and it is failing on building the webkit module with __sync_add_and_fetch_4 not being defined. My build is for Embedded Linux, which allows me to use the framebuffer. Posts report this error when trying to cross-compile for ARM, but I am building for X86. Several posts also indicate that this is due to the old GCC used by CentOS 5. Does anyone have any

The last few releases of OpenOffice have gotten very unstable on my desktop which is a CentOS 5.5 i386 system. After multiple crashes when doing embedded simple drawings in OpenOffice writer (circles and lines with connections), I started using the versions from Sun then Oracle. I am now using version 3.3: openooffice.org3-3.3.0-9567. I've lived with this but with version 3.x it has gotten

Anyone have any luck running updated Firefox on CentOS 5? We have CentOS 5 workstations and need to update their Firefox but it dumps core even when using the libstdc++ from Fedora 9. I would like anything stable and secure beyond Firefox 3 but can't find tarballs for anything other than 7.0.1. CentOS 5.5 i386 w/ updates firefox-7.0.1.tar.bz2 libstdc++-4.3.0-8.i386.rpm from Fedora 9

We have an application that has many processing threads writing more than a billion files ranging from 2KB ? 50KB, with 50% under 8KB (currently there are 700 million files). The files are never deleted or modified ? they are written once, and read infrequently. The files are hashed so that they are evenly distributed across ~1,000,000 subdirectories up to 3 levels deep, with up to 1000 files

Having recently read about the lack of security of Active X controls, I was wondering if I could get some specifics about its lack of security versus the security of JAVA. Also about the security of JAVA under Linux. I understand that MS''s concept of security is a) investigate the vendor, b) issue a certificate of authority, 3) vendor is now trused to do anything (fox guarding the hen

hi :) when using ext3, i can't get my hard disks to go to standby mode any more. i am using timeouts set by hdparm with 2.4.18 kernels. even when i issue a standby command manually, the disk spins up again after a few seconds. however, (to my knowledge) no user space program accessed this disk at that time. i suspect ext3's journal to be causing the disk accesses. is that possible?

Hi! With 3.2-rc4 (probably earlier), Ext4 seems to remember what areas it trimmed: merkaba:~> fstrim -v /boot /boot: 224657408 bytes were trimmed merkaba:~> fstrim -v /boot /boot: 0 bytes were trimmed But BTRFS does not: merkaba:~> fstrim -v / /: 4431613952 bytes were trimmed merkaba:~> fstrim -v / /: 4341846016 bytes were trimmed Is it planned to add this feature to BTRFS

Anyone know a pretty way to get a list of all Models? That is, a list of all classes which inherit from ActiveRecord:Base I can''t seem to figure it out! The best I''ve got is to list the /app/models directory... but, that is *dirty*. -hampton. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi I installed a new SSD in my Macbook running Arch Linux (Kernel 3.1). root partition has btrfs with discard and ssd mount parameters. I wanted to test whether the discard option was actually working, so I performed a testing procedure similar to what is described on various websites. The test file was the output of "seq 100000 999999" which is about 6MB in size. Instead of looking up

So, I''m trying to write a nice bit of regex to handle finding anchor tags in a bit of html. This is what I''ve got.... /<[aA][^>]*>[^<]*<\/[aA]>/ I''m planning on using this with a gsub!. Here is what it has to do.... <html><a href="http://stuff.com" class="link">Anything in here.</a></html> As you can

Today, I had a tragic hard drive crash. I hadn''t updated anything to SVN in two weeks. I''m posting this here as a reminder to my beloved Rails community. Everyone, right now..... make a backup of your rails work. Make sure its on two disks. Many of you already do that automatically, but just make sure its working. Two near-release rails plugins were lost in the tragic crash

I'd like to to put the hard drives in standby mode during periods of no activity. I'm just running a file server plus a couple small things on a Qube 3 from home, although the web stuff will increase it's still minimal. On my NetBSD systems I can use atactl to do this via: mount -u -o async,noatime,nodevmtime / mount -u -o async,noatime /usr atactl wd0 setidle 5 [wait a time]

Has anyone ever experienced this problem? Every 12-24 hours *one of* my mongrel processes gets a TERM signal and quits. There is all I get in my mongrel log.. ** Mongrel available at 0.0.0.0:8003 ** TERM signal received. And my rails-log is silent too. No request starting. Just the end of a successful request and then nothingness. The other processes are doing just fine and stay up for good.
