I just added an Ubuntu system to a network whose traffic i'm not 100% familiar with, and wanted to spend some time logging iptables rules to become conversant with the traffic the network sees on a...

He's right.
The shell script suggestions i (and others) provided would work best in lieu of dns, not conjunct with it. If you ran into a situation where dns would need to be updated due to a...

i definitely will. depending on how quickly i can get everything up, i may compare filesystems too. i'm most likely gonig to go with xfs, but i may benchmark it against ext3 just so there's a...

interesting.
i was hoping to find a definite difference between the two, but perhaps there's not. if i don't find anything, i'll post up some benchmark results, as i'm a bit curious even if the...

correct me if i'm wrong, but it sounds like what you need is to install a desktop manager after all. since you're running a server and will most likely have very little need for things like 3d...

there's far more to x86_64 vs i386 than just memory utilization. for instance, this article compares the two (both using 2GB RAM):

i also have another question which i'm hoping to further clarify.
the four raid disks will be sata 2 disks; however, the OS disk will be ata 133. since the raid array will be a separate partition...

definitely will, thanks!
this is a good start, though i'm curious-- why would you choose 64bit if not for difference in throughput of this specific application? I'm going to try to research this a...

did you restart apache after making the change? also, make sure apache (or whoever runs apache) has access to the index file.

i see-- i was basing my advise on your example.

but let's try this again:
if it's commands you're looking for, simply adding them to apache's path should do the trick (so instead of...

Not the answer you're looking for exactly, but why not add apache (the user) to the GROUP that has write access to the directory in question?
For instance, if i want apache to write to...

lol... looks like i was beaten to the punch, though i like that mine only sends an email if the address changes as opposed to sending email every time. gives more of an "alert" feel to it (and a...

Your best bet would be to write a small shellscript piping the contents of ifconfig to an email message.
Since you're not behind a router, and your system is (i'm assuming) using the DHCP address...

I'm preparing to configure a fakeraid system as a dedicated file storage box.
I've been doing a bit of investigating and am not quite convinced as to whether or not i'd benefit from running x86_64...

I'm going to configure a 400GBx4 raid 5 (fakeraid, nforce 570) fileserver on 8.04 this week, and was looking for a way to monitor disk/raid health and email/sms alerts if anything goes wrong.
i'm...

I'm currently using Evolution to check an MS Exchange account (at work).
I'm using Debian Etch, but i had the same issue running Ubuntu 8.04 with the same exchange account.
Periodically (ranging...
