Does the hardware have a console with a network port?
Examples:
- On DELL systems, there are these DRAC cards allowing a https connection to the console.
- On SUN hardware, there is ILOM (x86) and RSC (sparc).
- IBM xSeries has this thing.
- You may be to connect a serial line to ttyA from another server to 'tip' for console, making the security a little easier. See this.
- I'm sure there are others for HP, etc...
- Fancy "KVM swicthes.
- There may even be a 3rd party PCI option
Advantages:
- Console sessions require login/pass (some even accept keys)
- You can set your firewall rule to specific IP endpoints
- Minimal cost
- Minimal techy techy knowledge
- No extra software to install
To solve your 'tail -f' requirement; run nrpe/nagios, or even simpler use *.* @loghost in/etc/syslog.conf and set the correct loghost in/etc/hosts.
I understood that you presently run X11, if that isn't necessary with a hardware option and shipping logs, you may be able to run a straight terminal on the host. Unless, of course, your number cruncher requires it.
If anyone really learns much about the Linux OS from this thing I would be amazed.
YMMV, I guess.
I bookmarked it. I think its a handy reference and I traced a few module problems that I've worked back through the map, and some things I've heard/read actually made some sense.
I like the nav, but I'll agree it's not the prettiest map I've seen. I also like the links.
1. 300 is too small a sample. Far too small. 2. No breakdown on size of shop per admin. My SA/server ratio is 1:100, which means very little time. (I MAKE time for/. -- shutup:P) 3. No breakdown on 'admin' roles. If this is a mom-pop-shop admin survey, then I guess it makes sense. Cisco riders can't touch a server in my shop. Neither can the Domain/AD Admins. 4. MSNBC? Now -theres- credibility.::eyeroll:: 5. These shops obviously don't log admin activity. Someone needs to watch the watchers. 6. I am not a snitch. I don't get paid to snitch. 7. auto_home FTW, baby! 8. 1 out of 3 survey topics are meaningless.
They already have the tools in place to ship XP. It costs them $$ to retool for Vista. Since Vista is a steaming pile of shit, they have to recoup the cost of up-tooling for something nobody wants. Sounds alot like the music industry if you ask me.
the repair costs of the fabric are competitive with metal, it might even reduce costs over the life of the vehicle. From TFVideo (paraphrasing): "The entire skin can be replaced in about 2 hours".
I am skeptical that this would ever become a reality.
1. It flat out makes too much sense; therefore 2. Body shops lose out, even if they are under the insurance companies thumbs. 3. Insurance companies don't like it when you mess with their profits. 4. Power to weight ratio is increased a ton creating more efficient fuel economy; therefore 5. Bush/Cheney and the Oil companies don't like it when you mess with their profits. 6. In spite of the 'roll cage' under the fabric skin, I'm hesitant to believe these things would be as safe as metal cars.
Other thoughts: 1. Would falling/flying debris 'bounce' back at => velocity? 2. Legality/Registration issues aside, how cool would it be to have a wardrobe for your car? Make mine plaid. 3. This technology would probably work way better in airplanes where safety (read: falling out of the sky) is a forgone conclusion. 4. I really wonder how aerodynamic this technology could be.

I recall the early lycos search business model -- you'd get 40 or free searches, then a subscription was 'required' (not really, but it was supposed to be required). I can specifically recall goofing off in my IT hardware support role searching and downloading DOOM *.wad files for late night fraggage. There was no/. then, sadly, there was only DOOM and Efnet.
Altavista seemed to get replaced by google, in rather short order. I can't recall a specific reason I stopped using it, unless it was related to the repeated sale/reorg of DEC -> Compaq -> HP. I remember the news spreading about altavista hacked in '97 and '01 (the pr0n).
Maybe I'll use that webcrawler search thingy to look this stuff up. Maybe I should go back to work instead.

Wait, are you blaming corporations for the crap that *you* bought? No. I am angered because I don't really have a choice to purchase American made products. They are scarce and/or more expensive, although the ones I do purchase are often of higher quality.
Also, I have arbitrarily determined that your pay is excessive. Please hand an additional 10% your income over to the government so that they can put it to better use. The government can't spend the money I send in now correctly. What in the world would make anyone think more would solve the problem?
... at first, that these articles would lead to a concerted 'middle finger' aimed at Exxon/Mobile/etc, their excessive first quarter profits, and the like.
I interpreted much of TFA/links as little pissing matches involving legal loopholes that are so far below the obvious problem.
Too much crap in my house has a little sticker on it which reads "Made in [!USA]".
American voters cannot vote these idiots out. There is a line of party idiot miles wide just waiting to step in and 'get their piece' of the American political pie.
As I understand, they are sending data to a contractor so he/she may populate a DB (or something) with data for an app migration. This is an unacceptable practice, no matter how you slice it, because ITS A CONTRACTOR.
I'm pretty sure the contractor can jump on a plane and perform the neccesary work on a known, secure platform without the requirement of sending data out. If not, I'm 100% there is another capable contractor willing to perform work in a safe, secure manner out there.
The net cost is easily justifiable, IMHO, compared to the cost of restoring business reputation from sloppy policies and process.
True story. If you listen to the "Big Classic Rock" channel long enough (~3 hours), it runs out of songs or the db gets AFU, and starts plays hip-hop, big band, anything except big classic rock. This happens to me quite often and is easily repeatable.
Another annoying 'feature' is the process (DRM check I'd assume) called "synchronizing your library" at login. If, in fact, its not DRM, then its still annoyingly slow to reconcile the 6 whole songs I've purchased from them. Combined with the appearance that RP wants to own the songs/media I did not buy from them.
And yet, one of the first responses a HW vendor tells you is "update the firmware, update the driver".
I've recently experienced a condition in which the firmware is beyond the kernel, so we now get tons of 'null' messages from the card, and the kernel just goes "duh".
Yes, yes, yes, I know -- update the kernel. Response: sometimes you just can't.

How many would actually embrace an open source Windows, extend the code, and extinguish the bugs?

Alfred E. Neuman != mad-libs.
Why don't they, oh I don't know.... make a decent game for starters? Seems to me the easiest way to get good reviews is to put out a quality product.
Thats the way it is here in crazytown, anyways.

+5 flaimbate.
Since it's built so well as to exceed expectations x4, why doesn't someone go get it, and bring it back for an refit/upgrade and a new mission?
Worst case would be that it just looks damn good on someones front lawn.
I can think of a few people I'd like to see volunteer to fly into space... and be shot into the sun.

Considering the script and what was asked of him in Transformers, I'm struggling to understand why lots of folks don't like Shia much.
I do consider Transformers to be a 'kids movie', so maybe my expectations were tempered enough to avoid being overly critical. I did like the movie.
