<0> too bad that Kermit and the rest of the muppets didn't continue to be with Sesame Street.. I guess that is where I remember most of those characters best.
<0> Now all I have in my head is that comment from Family Guy...
<0> "The Count is a vampire right? Have they ever showed him doing someone in?"
<0> LYTR, you finally get your bots extracted?
<1> has anyone worked with AIX or Tru64 systems?
<0> AIX was written by Aliens.. and Tru64 was boring...
<2> actually digital unix wasn't too bad, considering digital would have much rathered you ran vms..
<1> actually digital unix = AIX?
<0> Umm.. no.. Digital Unix is more Tru64. =-)
<2> Tru64 is what Digital Unix was renamed to, to appease Compaq.
<2> (Not to be confused with DG-UX (data general's unix))
<0> Very much so.. DG/UX and Digital UNIX / Tru64 are very different beast.
<1> so who uses Tru64 and AIX anymore?
<0> and didn't even run on the same platform.
<1> and why?
<0> No clue about Tru64... AIX people use on big iron servers still. Mainly because it has a lot of DoD certifications for high security locations.
<1> what are Big Iron servers?
<0> Big *** collection of servers on one hardware platform.
<2> my general definition is anything big enough that there are multiple admins for single systems..
<1> lol
<1> that's insane
<1> must be a 6 figure job
<0> When I think "big iron" I think of the old Mainframe systems.
<2> why?
<0> why? <shrug>
<2> there's plenty of machines that are responsible for millions of dollars of traffic (or other mission critical stuff) daily..
<0> When I was introduced to the idea of m***ive serving it was an IBM Mainframe.
<0> So it has kinda always been the first thing that comes to mind.
<2> well, a counter definition is that big iron systems are installed in place by fork lift..
<0> And they are made of M***ive amount of metal. =-) Enough to make a lot of good swords.
<2> one cl***ic is the vax that fell off the back of the flatbed when delivered..
<2> smashed the concrete floor
<2> was put back on end, and due to a six month waiting list for replacements, was installed with fingers crossed
<2> vax worked fine
<2> vax just barely qualified as big iron
<0> I never saw a real vax until I worked for a printing company. Everything in College was microvax stuff.
<0> I was floored by the size of a real vax.
<2> well.. the common ones (6000 series) were roughly refrigerator size.. with several such cabinets for cpu and drives
<3> vax 8700
<3> vax 8600
<2> the vax from the story was an 11/780
<3> both i've used at RIT
<0> I have no clue what it was.. I don't remember anymore.. Just remember they had 3 of them. Two in active use and the 3rd was used in case something ****ed up.
<4> mouring my ex bought me an aix ibm lappy, should i be scurred
<4> it's not here yet..
<0> Must be a PowerPC laptop.
<0> I hated AIX.
<4> no i ordered it from IBM
<0> erm?
<4> or so i thought..
<0> If it is an x86 laptop I'd be surprised. I don't remember the x86 AIX port surviving.
<4> oh really ok..
<0> but I don't know of a PowerPC laptop that isn't Apple.. <shrug> But never looked.
<4> i consulted the IBM website.. they're all AIX, AIX training etc..
<0> painful experience.
<1> lol
<5> http://www.geocities.com/mr_integrity20/microtune_radio_software4.JPG <----that software runs with my high performance car radio evaluation board :P
<6> Sorry, this GeoCities site is currently unavailable.
<5> ****ing geo****ies bandwidth limit
<7> hi
<8> morning
<9> where is postfix's "mqueue" ?
<10> under the couch?
<11> Reminds me of a cat
<10> you don't know our MourCat very well yet, do you?
<0> inge, yes under the couch.. now I'm back at work and feel like crawling under the server.
<10> Mouring is a funny case
<10> I have had dogs who think they are people
<10> Mouring is the only person I know who thinks he is a cat
<0> inge, I walk around the office and people turn and jump because they don't hear me coming.
<0> It is just how I've been for years.
<0> and this isn't a once in a while thing.. this is a constant thing.
<0> besides, my cat thinks he is a dog sometimes.
<10> I always thought you were a sneaky bastard :P
<10> uhm.. your cat runs after cars?
<0> no my cat plays fetch
<0> and is as loyal as any dog.. comes most of the time I call for him.
<10> wow
<10> perhaps it is the cat in you that does it
<12> Hello
<13> it's done with newfs(8)
<12> aha! :)
<12> *goes digging in the man pages*
<12> ty.
<14> :O mouring
<14> that's a hell of an uptime
<0> solaris 2.7
<15> good lord
<15> paste that
<0> 12:34pm up 1263 day(s), 20:49, 2 users, load average: 0.02, 0.01, 0.01
<15> and paste uname ;-)
<0> the box is going away.
<0> umm..
<0> SunOS [..] 5.7 Generic_106542-23 i86pc i386 i86pc
<0> mr_you, it is a lie for the uptime in reality.
<15> hows that?
<0> the box has only been in my posession for maybe 2 and 1/2 years.
<15> its Solaris 7 BTW ;-)
<15> so?
<15> its not about you ;-)
<0> When it shipped to me the date was off by almost a year.
<15> awww uggh
<15> heh
<0> so after I changed the time to fix it.. the uptime jump.
<0> still 2 and 1/2 years is pretty decent.
<15> yeah
<0> it is being replaced with Redhat.
<15> bumer
<15> I still don't know if we are going to go with Solaris or what.
<0> I feel more comfortable with Redhat... I never did feel comfortable under Solaris.
<0> I would rather it be OpenBSD.
<15> *shrug*
<0> This is just an external webserver doing perl/cgi.. so nothing special is needed.
<15> RedHat always felt icky to me in the past.
<15> CentOS is decent though. But I'm still in love with FreeBSD.
<0> I ripped Redhat to pieces when I was college. So I have a greater understand of it.
<15> Solaris 10 has new startup crap.
<15> starts up clean though.. and Java Desktop is impressive.
<15> I just hate the subscription updates model even though I wouldn't mind having a business based on it hahaha
<12> Quest for more inodes; Created a new partition using disklabel j 1g, newfs, read the man, can't get newfs running - what to type in newfs to create a new filesystem in partition j?
<2> what os is it?
<12> openbsd
<2> what's the device?
<2> ie, sd1, wd2, etc
<2> shouldn't require too much contemplation, since you've already created a label on it
<2> still there?
<12> here
<12> yes
<12> wd0
<2> ok..
<2> did you label this drive up from scratch?
<12> during the install?
<2> ie, was it a brand new drive when you started, or has the installer already done some of the work on it?
<12> brand new, vmware
<2> hmm.. so the system normally boots of scsi and you've just added the ide drive?
<12> well it's op a virtual harddrive file
<12> *.vmdk
<2> that's not relevant as far as openbsd is concerned..
<12> ok
<12> well I just ran disklabel and typed a j
<2> But how have you booted a brand new drive, yet intend to put a partition j on it from within openbsd?
<6> ok, i think that topic can go now :P
<6> heh
<12> oh, there's no new drive then I guess
