<0> bbiab stealin heat sink off this comp
<1> hey
<1> anyone?
<2> Anybody good with courier-imap ? :) http://pastebin.com/566128 "chdir Maildir: No such file or directory"
<3> Hello
<4> yo
<3> That topic by Gaia^ is a ripoff of last week's Garfield comic
<3> but anyways, thats not what I came here to say =D
<3> I have a wierd message in /var/log/debug
<3> kernel: TCP: Treason uncloeaked! Peer 1.2.3.4:1698/80 shrinks window 547213520:547213521. Repaired.
<3> What does that mean?
<4> bad packets on the network
<3> Oh, nothing to worry about?
<3> heh, except in the log cloaked is spelled right ;)
<4> usually nothing - though it could be fake packets being generated
<4> was an issue with real old kernels (early 2.2?)
<4> (Redhat 7.0? 6.0?)
<0> couldn't steal it :(
<3> HellHound must be lagged
<0> let see how long doom3 roe holds up before computer stops
<4> thank google for cached pages (xvid codec download page down)
<3> ladybyte, lastlog
<3> Shrek-: Ironically, your nick is colored green in my xchat window
<4> hehe
<4> hmm, mplayer try3 isn't out yet *blinks at security adv*
<5> hi i have a question about mounting. I am a newbie and was wondering if this fstab structure is correct
<5> /dev/sda1 / /dev/sda3 /home /dev/sda2 swap /dev/sda4 swap
<0> no
<0> you can't have all that on 1 line
<0> you have to define eacy mount point on a seperate line
<5> because i found that when i save something to the home directory it gets saved to both sda1 and sda3
<5> yeah
<5> not the lines just the mount points
<5> i didn't want to get booted for flooding
<0> nothin wrong with those mount points, you can check them with mount or df -h
<5> so why is my home directory in both sda1 and sda3?
<5> and would that create a problem in the future if my /home directory gets too large?
<3> How do I get syslogd to write a test line?
<0> first i would unmount /home and make sure home directory existed on /
<0> then mount /dev/sda3 to /home
<0> though thats probably how it is
<5> hmm ok
<0> did you just create the new /home partition?
<5> no
<4> Braden9: man logger
<5> this is what df -h says
<5> /dev/sda1 21G 2.7G 18G 13% /
<5> tmpfs 467M 12K 467M 1% /dev/shm
<5> /dev/sda3 210G 280M 210G 1% /home
<0> at some point maybe you wrote to /home when sda3 wasn't mounted
<4> (that what you're looking for?)
<5> is that alright?
<3> Satyr: Yeap, thanks =)
<5> and is there anyone here that can recommend a great partition setup with a 250gb hard drive?
<5> i gave home 210gb and i am not sure if that is a good thing
<0> other than special permissions for /tmp and /var/tmp i dont worry about partitions much on my servers unless its divided because of multiple drives
<4> ariel__: depends on your usage/users/etc - I'd stick the m*** of it as a generic data area (to stop users from filling up home - and have a central 'dump area' where anyone can clean out if required)
<4> my 1.89 cents (excluding tax) ;)
<5> well i am the only user
<4> then it makes no main difference
<3> heh, is that inflation up from 2 cents?
<5> alright
<3> Ok, serious question again. I have three exactly identical harddrives. What would be a good program to use to back up one hard drive to the other two on an hourly basis?
<4> Braden9: run them as Raid1 ;)
<5> is it a good idea to have 2 swaps and is the limit still 2gb?
<3> This mobo doesn't have hardware raid capabilities
<4> Braden9: software raid works good
<5> i put a swap after the / and before the /home and one at the end of the drive
<3> What software raid do you recommend?
<3> ariel__: My swap file is 4 gigs
<4> Braden9: linux comes with it
<3> What is it called so I can read the manpage?
<5> and does that make the computer any faster Braden9
<5> and what size of swap would you recommend for a 250gb drive
<3> ariel__: No, but it is a production server, so its there if it ever needs it
<5> oh ok
<3> I always take (for servers) the amount of physical ram * 4
<3> for swap
<3> on desktops you don't need near as much
<5> oh alright
<3> and if your server is using /any/ swap you have issues
<0> if your setting up a server definately make a /tmp and /var/tmp partitions
<6> that is pretty much nonesense
<4> Braden9: trying to remember - mdadm or something?
<4> actually swap is useful for processes that sit in the bg when you go to sleep ;)
<6> but not 4GB
<4> freeing mem for more useful foreground stuff like bittorrent or amule ;)
<0> !paste
<7> More than 3 lines? Paste your stuff at http://paste.getlinuxhelp.org/ and then tell us the url it gives you.
<0> you can paste there
<5> http://paste.getlinuxhelp.org/1985
<5> does that look fine?
<4> lunchtime - and a fresh kernel download..
<4> back later
<5> i had problems installing debian because it didn't recognize my hd and so i installed suse because i heard it was good and i don't want to have to reinstall if there is anything wrong
<0> damn it locked up again
<0> ariel__ for my servers i use centos myself
<8> Hell-O
<0> that looks fine but must ask why reiser
<0> hi
<8> why are new versions of wine so broken?
<4> delt: what about broken?
<6> delt, laughing about your real name field
<0> no idea, never used it
<8> hehehe
<8> maybe i need to delete my ~/.wine config
<6> delt, what do you run on wine?
<8> it -would- be nice if i could get adobe audition running.....
<8> that way i wouldn't need to constantly fight with the headache (windowz) machine
<8> microsoft products are generally far beyond my patience.
<5> Redragon^ i read an article in Linux Format i believe that said that the benchmark times on reiser were better
<6> as an alternative you could run windows on a virtual machine via qemu or vmware
<5> is there any way to get a free version of vmware or do i have to shell out the 180 bucks
<8> yeah but then it would be 10 times slower, and i often need to process large numbers of large audio files
<5> is there anyone here that has had success in getting a ms windows license refund?
<8> i do all my sampling and sequencing in linux anyways. i just use audition on the windowz box to mix them from across the network
<8> ariel__ good luck with that.... !!
<5> have you tried delt
<8> no, but my grandfather once knew a guy whose uncle's friend had tried
<0> ariel__ if you have a drive problem odds are you'll loose your data on a reiser system
<0> i've stuck with ext3 on all my servers
<5> alright
<5> so does that mean i should reinstall with ext3?
<0> ariel__ also if your going to run a web server you want a partition for /tmp and /var/tmp so they can be mounted noexec,nosuid
<4> reiser is fast on small files, xfs is fast on large files, ext3 is avg on both I think (middle ground)- last I checked
<8> good advice about the noexec/suid thing
<5> great thanks Redragon^ but right now i am going to be using linux as a winxp replacement hence SUSE
<3> If I am wanting to zero out a drive using dd but not impact the other processes running on the system how much bytes should I write at a time? Small or Large?
<5> and I would like to run a server for a website but i have 0 knowledge right now
<0> delt its one of several things i do to avert injection
<3> ie. nice -n=19 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdc bs=128
<5> is there a way to use xen to do a virtual machine with windows xp or 2000 pro?
<3> or bs=4k ?
<0> xen 3 supports windows
<5> Redragon^ have you had any luck on ms refunds?
<5> where do i get it?
<4> I'd put the bs=512, or 1024 (even number for sectors is multiple of 512)
<0> i guess from xen website hehe
<0> !xen
<5> and does it cost anything and is it good better worse than vmware
<0> i remember reading an article about it
<0> xen is OS i believe
<8> all your OS are belong to us.
<5> thanks everyone good night God bless
