  1. My Solution on Home Server Rooms? · · Score: 1

    I have over twenty machines, two switches, and two routers running in the basement of my house. The BTU output is many time more then the space heater in the den. The temps of these machine never each the danger level, becuase of nature convention, of course. Most of the problems of cooling comes from putting to many machines into too small of space. Such as seven severs in a 10 * 12 bedroom, or twenty machine in a five by four closet.

    Having the server in a large room such as the basement which is 60 feet by 15 feet means that heat genrated by the server will rise and move towards the cooler side of the basement. The cool air will move towards the servers, thus creating a nature cooling environment. This solution has worked wonders and cost nothing.

    In terms of network design, you should not trust anything. The whole idea of trusting a computer is obsolete. It dates back to a world where everyone knew everyone else.

    Today network are designed and built with idea and mind set that anything on the network could be cracked. Machine you know are cool need to prove who they are. Don't assume anything. By default insecure service should be disabled and never used. The insecure terms should not be used. When the phase `telnet into a box` is heard it should should be corrected with `ssh into a box`. Anyone that still uses r services or telnet for access get what is coming to them.

    Death to port 23!!

    I don't know about your town but in my town the cops only pull people over for speeding, hang out, and show up after a crime.

    The prevention of crime has little or anything to do with the police force. They are not there to insure your safety, but to maintain the peace.

    The main problem with airport security is the under paid workers. The only other job the people checking bags is McDonald. They are unskilled, underpaid, and untrained. The city or airport that contact the company accepts the lowest bidder. If you want to know how bad it is, the company that checks bags in Atlanta responded to 9/11 by increasing the wages of people that work there for five year by $2k to a whooping $17k a year. Goverment won't help becuase like the postal system, it's all about power and money, and nothing about security. Goverment solution to a problem is more government. Europain country tried government empolyee but went back to private company because it was a huge failure.

    American is great becuase of private company, not becuase of it's government. The rights we love so much are unalienable. They are not given to us by government. Goverments take away rights, not give them.

  10. pure research on NASA Considers Privatizing Space Shuttles · · Score: 1
    Tax dollars go into developing an asset for pure research. Republicrats in Congress get tired of paying for it and raffle asset off to corporate friends/sponsors. Corporate friends make lots of money (at US Taxpayer expense mind you, since we paid for the initial investment) while killing initial purpose of the asset (since 'pure research' isnt profitable). Taxpayers get ZERO benefit from this unless they happen to be significant shareholders, which very few of us are.


    Ummm, didn't the internet get started as pure research government project? No wonder why it has ZERO benefit!!!

  11. hard work lead to the best on What Do You Do When CS Isn't Fun Any More? · · Score: 1
    You major in what you love to do, and use computers to make what you love that much better.

    Most people fail at doing this. They are driven by the lust of money. They soon forget what they love to do, or why they are involed in their current actions. If they can learn to keep moving, towards making theirselves better at what they love to do, they might find happiness at the end of the road. However, sadly to many people get in a rut and are unable to move out of it becuase of the fear of failure. They value much were they are at and all the work they put into it. They think they can ever get to the same position. They become content. They accept the belife that they are a failure and could never become "that". They accept the thinking what is now is good enough then the hard work that lead to new paths on the road. They end up degrading the furture to feel better. However, that is their own lie. The best is yet to come. Knowing who you are will lead you to the best.

  14. Debian Network Install on Debian On DVD · · Score: 1
    SuSE has done this for a while and installing one DVD is a lot less "sitting in front of the computer changing disks" of a hassle. Only problem is: what if you have multiple machines, some of which only have a CD drive, with others having both? I know SuSE, at least with Professionl, give you both. Call me a SuSE fanboy, but I am.


    Well Debian can easily be installed over a network, so to answer your question, if you have many machines but one dvd drive you just mount the DVD on one machine, setup a ftp or http server, and do a standard network install. Now if you have a many simler machines that require the same config you would want to setup FAI (fully automatic installation) on a master node and use the DVD as the package source.
