Update to 0.2. Links remain the same. At the moment I cannot host many versions (it’s mostly uncomfortable), but this might change in the future. I have created a GUI cables installer and configurator for L2TP on Linux. I have noticed that there is no GUI solution, so, after this has been brought up, I…
VMware allow setting a virtual machine as a private machine. By doing so, it actually adds to “/etc/vmware/vm-list-private” an additional comment, stating who is the owner of the machine. For example: cat /etc/vmware/vm-list-private # This file is automatically generated. # Hand-editing this file is not recommended. config “/vmware/Centos4-01/Centos4-01.vmx|root” config “/vmware/Centos4-02/Centos4-02.vmx|user” While it is very effective…
While DL140 G3 is quite a new piece of hardware, RHEL4, even with the later updates, is rather old. When you decide to install RHEL4 on a DL140 G3 server, my first recommendation is this: if you decide to use the embedded SATA-II RAID controller – don’t. This is a driver-based RAID, much like the…
Installing older Linux systems on new hardware is always fun. SuSE 8 especially might be tricky, due to several assumptions during install: 1. The install kernel is the Single CPU version. However, on an SMP system, the Single CPU kernel would not be actually installed. 2. HP assume you have a floppy with your server….
Lets assume you have a method of point-in-time copy of Microsoft Exchange DB and logs, while the system is running, to an alternate server. Let’s assume, if we’re at that, that this point-in-time is consistent, and that you can mount this store (depending on using the similar directory structure, etc.), on an alternate server, and…
I’m in the process of installing VCS on two guest (virtual) Linux nodes, each using the following setup: 256MB RAM One local (Virtual) HDD, SCSI channel 0 Two shared (Virtual) HDDs, SCSI channel 1 Two NICs, one bridged, and one using /dev/vmnet2, a personal Virtual switch. The host (carrier) is a Pentium 3 800MHz, with…
