I'm not kidding, this type of stuff really works for some things. For example, we used to see 5-7 spiders/day in our house, and after getting the ones from costco, we now see 2-3 per month! It is wonderful.
I just got done reading Knuth's 1965 Algorithms book. It was hilarious! However, even though all of it was in Assembly, some of the math algorithms are applicable today.
I'm the same way. I've setup about a dozen Juno accounts for friends and family, and every time I "fill out" the form for them by randomly clicking one thing from each selection. If it wasn't required, I wouldn't pollute their statistics, but oh well.
Ha ha. You're right. But there penalty for not having ip affinity is $$$, and it isn't worth it (don't believe them when they say all the AOL users will hit one box -- ip affinity works fine). Look at the cost of F5 iron. Ouch. (Compared to a $50 Pentium 300 doing the same work even faster using ip affinity).
Agreed again.:-) But you may also consider RAID-50 (a RAID-0 of RAID-5's). Further, the 12MB/s (100mbps) network card is probably your bottleneck. Gigabit would be best, but FEC of 4 100mbps would give you 400mbps, or about 50MB/s.
I must say that you are an amazing yet rare individual, to have commanded that much respect at the age of 18. Wow. I can't handle OS design now, let alone when I was 18. Would you be so kind as to share some about your upbringing, environment, faith, or other factors that were beneficial to you in making you who you are today?
It's good to have anyway so your OS can swap out stuff that isn't used at all but is loaded anyway -- and make more room for stuff that is used. i.e., swap out that screen saver code for more room for a GIMP cache or what have you.
No, passwordless private keys are in part 2, passwordless authentication is indeed covered. (Yes, you use a password for the private key, but the actual authorization is by RSA/DSA).

I'll use MySQL 4 when Slashdot upgrades to it. :-)
ROTFL :-)
Yes, that is true, and sad. But I never really notice, what with 512mb ram and all. :-)

The Linux Virtual Server with ip affinity is a great way to go. Very fast and effecient, stable.
Servers, networks, and service are the only ways to go. IMHO.

I concur.
All you who say there is no high-class CRM for Linux, pay attention:
Compiere.
http://www.compiere.org
Mozilla License. Enterprise-class ERP/CRM (okay, the CRM is a little lacking, but the ERP is awesome).
Opennms.org, may not be enterprise-class yet, but you should check it out.
I agree with one other poster who mentioned Compiere. It is a very complete, robust, and *awesome* ERP/CRM system. http://www.compiere.org
Marcelo,

Thank you,
Interchange (ic.redhat.com) is much better. :-)
Not to mention that Windows 95 had a bug that it would blue screen 47 days after installation: after doing aboslutely nothing.
But yes, it would be a neat project if someone put in the resources to do it right.

Me too!
I loved that game.
I highly recommend SAP-DB, an open source database (GPL) with Oracle 7.3 compatibility mode and features. http://www.sapdb.org
One word: paypal. :-)

I like Dotster too. What's funny is I live about 5 miles from the Dotster headquarters, and my sister in law worked there until she moved.
powerarchiver.com has a good gui zip program that is free but not open source.
When they had the ads for the "used VA servers", I should've known it would lead to this.
