  1. Re:Restarting services... on Server Monitoring With Munin And Monit · · Score: 1

    For some (maybe even most) servers the admin isnt available 24/7.
    Some issues like memory leaks or other bugs cant be solved by the admin in a short period of time.

    In an attempt to have the services available for as often as possible an automated restart can be helpfull. Ofcourse the cause of the event should be found and resolved.

  2. Cacti on Server Monitoring With Munin And Monit · · Score: 4, Insightful

    How is this different from cacti?

  3. Blu-Ray will win on Video Games and the Hi-Def Format Wars · · Score: 0

    Sony will release the PS3 below $500 and nobody will buy an $300 dollar external HD-Drive for the 360.
    Within a year more then 1million consumers will have a PS3 and therefor will generate demand for blu-ray movies.

    Blu-ray will win this war unless the hd camp has some trick. Microsoft released the 360 too early (not even enough production).

    Altough the fight between game consoles will continue blu-ray will win the disk war.

  5. Diversity is the key on The Biology of Network Security · · Score: 2, Informative

    The key point in network security is diversity and multiple layers of security. When there is a fault (due to whatever cause) in one of the layers only that layer will be comprimised but no real severe damage done.

    Ofcourse it is important that those layers are created and maintained by several entity's.

    A simple example:
    - Have your network guys maintain your firewalls
    - Have all traffic go through a application gateway which is maintained by a third party.
    - Have system administrators to secure the system

    Ofcourse adding layers increases costs and security.

  9. Re:Land of the Free on AT&T Seeks to Hide Spy Docs · · Score: 1

    All americans I know have escaped to The Netherlands and they believe that the US should be free.

    And here there still not in "The land of the Free" but atleast they can smoke a joint without getting thrown in jail.

    Most non-native english speakers find this acceptable or just dont care.

  12. Re:Normal windows operations on Border Security System Left Open · · Score: 1

    First:
    Some admins can read the patch.
    Some admins will analyse the patch.

    After there can be a discussion;
    Why is there a change to qos when the patch should fix an igmp issue?
    Is this because the two are related are is this patching another issue in the same time?
    Could this qos change have side-effects, should I include qos in my testing?

    When you get a binary patch you should run all you tests, which will probably take way too long. Instead of just testing the relevant parts.

  13. Normal windows operations on Border Security System Left Open · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This sounds like normal windows operations:
      - an exploit (bug) is discoverd
      - the virus is released
      - a patch is relesead by microsoft
      - the administrators dont trust the patch (cant see what it exactly does) so need to test
      - in the mean time the virus is spreading
      - there should be a profit line here, but I gues microsoft already made a profit before all of this started.

  22. Patent on iPod Update to Address Volume-Level Concerns · · Score: 4, Funny

    If think they should make a system where the user can decide for it self what the volume should be by using a "-" and "+" button. Hereby giving the user full control of the volume level.

    Should this be patented that would be true inovation!

  23. .forward on Review of GMail for Your Domain · · Score: 1
