  1. Re:uPnP on Apple Plans To Release Rendezvous As Open Source · · Score: 1

    whoa .. thanks for the link .. I didn't know about stateless autoconf for IPv4, nor did I know about link-local addresses (:

    hmm, well .. I don't see the point of all that, as IPv6 is already standardized with all these features ..

    IPv4, link-local? HUH?

    could you go a bit further into that, please? (:

    as far as I know, there is no scope for IPv4 addresses.. So what you say is making me wonder ..

    uh? What's the relation between ethernet an internet?

    You could have a 10Gbit/s pipe to your ISP, although I'm not sure if they would be able to handle that ..

  7. Re:The question remains... on An Application For 10-Gigabit Networking · · Score: 1

    10Gbit ethernet is useful for large backbones, although I still haven't seen any.

    For a normal office LAN, 1Gb ethernet up to the switches, then fast ethernet to the boxes is enough.

    But I wouldn't refuse a 10Gbit fiber up to my box, tho' :)

    Small recipe against spammers & co.:

    1) Get a huge pen
    2) Write a message in huge letter, preferably on more that one sheet
    3) Stick these sheets together
    4) Find out their fax number
    5) Fax the copy
    6) While the 1st end comes out of the fax machine, stick it to the other end
    7) Take a cup of coffee, and sit back while emptying their paper buffer

  25. Re:Needs constant power on Why Not Solid State Hard Drives? · · Score: 1

    Hey that's not stupid!

    You could have a nice little ramdisk filled at boot from an HD, then, you put the HD to sleep (hdparm -Y /dev/hd), and if you shutdown, or when the UPS says it's time to go to bed (there's an action defined into /etc/inittab) it could wakeup the HD, save everything (only /home or /).

    The rest is static, or, if you need to install something new, just chroot on the HD (haven't found a better solution right now: saving the whole ram on HD every reboot/shutdown is a bit, erm .. annoying :)
