"The survey was conducted online with 3,613 respondents between mid-December and mid-January, the company said."
I guess they forgot to mention that the survey was only open between midnight and 5 a.m. during that period and placed only on webpages containing word games and puzzles?
How would choosing an alternate root server fix brokenness in the.com and.net tld's?
They still point to Verisign's gTLD-server.net's nameservers for the.com and.net domains, so using these alternate roots won't solve this problem.
Of course, you could set up your own alternate.com or.net TLD. Good luck in getting the full and updated list of all registered.com and.net domains and their nameservers:)
If you can't move the outlets closer to the racks, why not move the racks closer to the wall?
Or, if the racks are too heavy to move, why not put another rack halfway between wall and current rack and you only have a couple of inches to bridge instead of 3 feet.
Just use your favorite volume managment system to create a snapshot of whatever volume you would like to backup and use dump, tar or whatever to write that snapshot to tape. This way you'll have a consistent backup of the filesystem.
I'm using LVM as a wrapper around Amanda to create and remove snapshots of every filesystem I'd like to backup.
According to the 'Tech Specs', typical power consumption is 300 W. Not taking into account any power losses in conversions etc., this means that for 72 hours UPS you'll need 72*300/12=1800 Ah worth of batteries. I don't know what the latest research in batteries have brought us, but I don't think you can fit a total of 1800Ah in batteries in 3u rackspace (and still have room for the 14 disks).
It's obvious that it's only 72 hours of battery backed up cache.
You guy's are really considerate: fire destroys network, they do all their best to get it somewhat back to work and then you slashdot it back into oblivion.
Don't worry about that. The temporary www.utwente.nl website is hosted at a temporary site just across the street (but it sits at the same subnet as some of our own servers, never had a/. effect that nearby....)
Though the arsonist takes a huge part of the blame, i think the university also made some faults. Why put your servers in a building that burns that well? If you have so much expensive equipment, you should consider everything, including arson! A few days ago they were happy that no asbestos was released because it was removed shortly ago. But isn't asbestos a fire retarder??
I think it's partly because of historical reasons. The building was built in 1974 and even back then it was already called the TW/RC building because it came with a computer room.
I believe the University is assured against fire, but I'm afraid that these researchers who lost years of their research in the flames have no other option that to do it all again:(
The building in question is the TW/RC building (Technische Wiskunde / Rekencentrum = Technical Mathematics / Datacentre) which is a 3 floor high building consisting of 4 wings (A, B, C and D) and partially built on water. A Google Image search on 'tw utwente' will show some pictures from the outside of the building.
The building is almost 30 years old and the two destroyed wings have just been renovated a year or so ago. Because of this renovation the 2 wings are believed to pass current fire code (the other wings don't).
The hallways are a bit narrow and are laid out in what can be described as a maze, so I'm not surprised that a large enough fire managed to spread through the entire building.
I'm almost sure A108 is one in a series of 'normal' classrooms with only chairs and tables and a blackboard, so I'm a bit puzzled why the fire would have started there.
Or any other firewall that can filter on mac addresses.
Just configure dhcpd to hand out dynamic ip addresses using the range keyword.
Then either put the firewall on the same box as the dhcpd server, allowing only known mac addresses access to the dhcpd or put the firewall on the gateway between your customers and the internet.
If you pick the second option, everyone can get an dhcp lease, but only registered customers can pass. You could even set up some rules that redirect all access to port 80 for unauthorized users to a special webserver telling them they need to register or whatever.
Then you asume that a computer using 10base2 uses the same amount of power or less than a 10baseT network client.
I didn't read the ethernet specs, but from a page like this
which I found on google shows that most PCMCIA networkcards need about 100mA more when used on a 10base2 network.
Make a copy of the/dev device itself, if you have the space for that on another partion. Then use that backup-file to try out whatever other posters here suggest.
No, the user is still free to disable the expiry from the source. The difference is that when a user disables the expiry date from the software, he knows what risk he takes.
Does this formula hold when you compare the price of bandwidth with the price of computational power ??
I can get all the bandwidth I want (and a bit more) but I have to pay for it.
All the CPU's I use are overpowered, but I already have paid for the full capacity. This is not the case for my bandwidth, because I have to pay for every bit of data my webserver sends to the internet.
That's not a problem of basic X, but a problem of
how your distribution has configured X to run by default.
X is extremely flexible in using multiple input and output devices, but because most people have a very straightforward setup, your Linux (?) distribution doesn't bother you with all the posibilities.
Unfortunately my desk is too small, or else I would be running both my 24" and my 20" dual headed:)

GPL, section 6:

Believed to be not compatible with the GPL.
The license itself is probably Open Source, but distributors would break the license of every GPL'ed program that links with XFree86.
Release source code, to have more developers working on Windows security.

Too bad that it is considered just an urban legend.

I don't think so.

This is not a case in France, but one in Germany, started by a german lawyer against a german company.

That's a little bit of an understatement. So how many version of Windows before it starts getting redundant?
