  1. No SUV, but... on The Laid-off Techie · · Score: 1

    I work in the IT Dept for a local govt agency.

    The pay is slightly below the mean for this market and my skills, 5 yrs exp., A+, Linux+, MCSE.

    Private sector guys are always whizzing by me in their new SUVs while I hum along in my Saturn.
    There is disdain in this town (Charlotte,NC) for anyone making less than 100k or anyone whose car is more than two years old or gets more than 10 mpg.

    Now, the hotshots are stay at home Dads while I'm still employed and quite secure.

    So, which is better? 90k per year then a layoff? Or, 60k per year but a stable job with low stress, and home by 4:30 every day?

  2. What about Hybrids? on GPL Violation, Microtest's DiskZerver · · Score: 1

    We too bought many from MicroTest. Linux/Samba/mkisofs works well as a replacement most of the time.

    Question: How do you handle hybrid CDs? Win32 mounts them as CDFS so that files from both the Apple and ISO session are exposed. Linux can mount as CDFS but this only exposes the images on the CD - not the same thing. Each still has to be mounted individually then exposed as a Samba share.

    What do I do with these multi-session types to share them thru Samba just as a Win32 client expects to see them? One thought is to mount the two sessions, copy the files from both and create a new ISO. Not perfect. Any other thoughts?
