I was wondering if anyone has any experience using this convertfs toolset.
This simple toolset allows you to change type of file system in the lack of backup space. The idea is to use sparse files support of primary filesystem.
We create a sparse image of block device, mkfs secondary filesystem on it, mount it, mv files from primary filesystem to mounted image and then map image
to the device. Remapping utility uses some kind of journaling to avoid breakage in case of power failure. It's expected that you have linux 2.4, glibc 2.2,
recent util-linux, fileutils.
You can convert from virtually any filesystem type to virtually any one as long as they are both block-oriented and supported by Linux for read/write, and as long as primary filesystem supports sparse files.

SQL-Injection attacks are just as likely to occur on your PHP site with a MYSQL Backend. Porting your app to linux isn't going to protect you from poor design decisions made when your website was coded.

That one little piece of information is more than enough to determine anyones age within 1-2 years. I'm not so much worried about what they ask once I am there for the interview, I am confident that my abilities will speak for themselves.
The type of age discrimination that worries me is that it could be used to weed out applicants way before they get to the interview process. Then again what options do you have, your age isn't something you have any hope of hiding for any amount of time.
Having just been through a consolidation of 4+ NT4 Domains (1000+ users) to a single AD installation last year and the addition of an additional Child Domain overseas within the last 6 months I can say that there is really only one reason to consider using a child domain instead of OUs, and that reason is replication.
All DC's in a domain have an exact copy of the AD structure and it needs to be replicated fairly often for the domain to function correctly. We decided to make a child domain overseas because it really cuts down on the amount of replication traffic between the sites and will allow the child to still run well even if the overseas link is down for any substantial amount of time.
As long as you have a good (1/2 T1+) stable connection between all the different locations all other administrative functions can be delegated at the OU level, policy inheritance can be blocked and there really is no reason to use a child domain instead of an Organizational Unit.
Setting up a Windows 2003 Terminal Server would be one of the first applications I'd like to try out with the new OS, but one would have to be crazy to upgrade...
Microsoft has screwed it's customers once again and changed the license agreement in 2003 Server to require a Terminal Service CAL for all client OS's. With Windows 2000 as long as the client's OS was 2000 or above it had an inherent CAL.
Not that any of this surprises me at all, but I for one am not about to make the switch...
Perhaps if there was a bi-weekly digest, consisting of patches 2 to 4 weeks old that hasn't had major problems?
Perhaps SUS is what you are looking, we have been running it on hundreds of desktops at our company for months without any trouble. Simple as setting a group policy on the computers and logging on to a website once in a while to approve updates.

I recieved the following from my ISP a few minutes ago:
Trouble Ticket #22048416 Type of Event: Outage Affected: DED1.CLEVOH Description: Dear Ameritech Customer,
For several hours today, UUNET, our Global Service Provider in the Ameritech region, suffered a severe routing issue, which impacted most of the Ameritech Internet Services, as well as many other providers who use UUNET as a backbone service. Losses of routes, BGP failures, routing loops, and over-utilized circuits during this time were caused by these issues within UUNET (alter.net). By working with the network engineers at UUNET, we at SBC were able to assist in providing a working resolution for this issue, and we are currently working with UUNET to try and ensure that such an issue does not occur again. As all providers' networks begin to reconverge their routing tables, customers may continue to experience mild latency over the next few hours, but this should disappear in a matter of time. We thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter and apologize for any trouble or inconvenience that this issue may have caused.

I multiply that by my average hourly rate, and find out that, based on my current spam average, I will loose around $2,500.00 annually due to spam.
Using that logic you will lose around $50,000 due to reading /.

This is why we need the to mandate the implementation of RFC3514 right a way. It would sure make firewalling a lot easier.
