[PATCH]: Workaround a security leak on Windows
The attached patch should solve the following problem: ssh-agent creates a temporary directory under /tmp with '600' permissions. The actual socket file is created in that dir using the default umask. That's no problem in U*X systems since nobody but the owner of the directory can read the socket file. Unfortunately, Windows has a user privilege called "Bypass traverse

StatET & Sweave cannot compile pdf files
I am new to R, Sweave, and LaTeX. I am running StatET with Eclipse 3.7 on a Windows 7 x64 OS. StatET also includes the Sweave add-on, which I use to try and compile a PDF document. I also installed MiKTeX 2.9, because, previously, R could not execute texi2dvi (presumably, because there was no TeX runner). Basically, no .tex file could be compiled into PDF file. After I installed MiKTeX, I was

8.2.2004 Quick recovery and fix for unbootable machines
This is a quick recovery and fix for the machines rendered unbootable after the grub2/shim yum update. It is written for CentOS 8.2.2004 but similar should work for any CentOS 8 or 7 as long as you get the correct shim file, that is, the one from the latest installation media. I am running on an x86_64 architecture (see uname -i). Please use the correct shim file for your architecture

Vcpu allocation for a newly created domU
Hi all, I am having confusion regarding the way a newly created domain is allocated vcpu. Initially during dom0 creation alloc_vcpu is called to create vcpu structs for all the available cpu''s and assigned to dom0. But its not the case for domU creation. 1. So how will dom0 relinquish/share vcpu to/with a newly created domU. Does this happen as part of the shared_info page mapping??

Fwd: 8.2.2004 Quick recovery and fix for unbootable machines with rescue disk
Hello all-- These instructions are somewhat OK but my messed up box is the only one I've got basically to help with this problem. Where can we find "correction" instructions using a "rescue" CD or flash drive? I understand RedHat provided detailed instructions to supported customers.

Very low FPS in Wine/Ubuntu vs WindowsXP

Is efiboot.img required?
> The most annoying thing (to me) is that it doesn't boot at all on > Legacy OS mode (MBR), while it should... :-/ No, it shouldn't. If you are initially booting in (U)EFI mode (into rEFInd, or some EFI shell or any other EFI boot loader or EFI boot manager), then generally speaking you are expected to boot in EFI mode. But some (U)EFI firmware _might_ be able to

Help with backups
I've got a Redhat 5 server running Samba, and two dualboot CentOS 5 workstations. Until we get a better backup strategy, I'm backing up the workstations to the server via mounting a shared samba drive to /mnt. Trying tar cvf /mnt/samba_share/backup.tar /* eventually yields backing up /mnt, which produces an unwanted loop, including /mnt/samba_share I looked at tar with --exclude /mnt

Question related to Single-step execution and Emulation
Hi all, I am trying to perform single-stepping and instruction emulation both in Xen-3.2.1. I am using the following approach: First, I mark a guest page "not present" inside the shadow page table so that I could intercept any operation that involves this page. When the guest tries to access that page, it faults and control goes to Xen (sh_page_fault function). There, I emulate that

Different distros have different defaults. There's no actual right or wrong here. Pretty much anything you can think of can be made to work.
