  1. IronMountain on Online Backup Solutions? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Although pricey, IronMountain offers excellent service in this backup genre.

    http://www.ironmountain.com/Index.asp

    I highly recommend them if you can afford it.

    Aside from that, if you are a smaller shop hit up freshmeat/sourceforge for projects like Bacula and BackupPC...they work well for smaller installs.

    I've had great luck with a 24dBi Parabolic Antenna at over 1.5 miles away.

    If all of these sites are within a mile with reasonable line of sight and not many trees in the way, I'd suggest putting the parabolic antennaes at each location directed toward your main location.

    At the main location go with a nice sector antenna array.

    Heres a link:
    http://squitter.com/products/antennas/parabolic24. htm

    Homebrew your AP and end nodes with a workstation or soekris board and a netgate radio...or connect the antennas to commercial AP/Bridge units.

    Depending on how many sites you have to link, you should get out at a reasonable cost.

    "I don't like the majority or the form of democracy our country has taken on in the last 100 years or so"

    Then move! or show us what you are actively doing to change it.

    "return to a strong local government and a weak federal government"

    Yeah, because this really worked well for under the articles of confederation...or the few other _plans_ of this sort suggested around that time(ex. New Jersey Plan).

    I'm sorry my friend..but in any system..the majority has the oppotunity to win..from the most ungoverned level of "the state of nature" up to the "social systems" we have today. When you seed a group of humans with opportunity that benefits them..eventually it will be seized in some form or another.

    "this country was founded on a Constitution that should severely limit what the federal government can do"

    very good point..our founding fathers didn't have much faith in our intent :(, and for good reason.

    All and all..good points..appreciate the view.

  8. Linux Arbitrator works well on Throttle Apache Bandwidth Based on IP Address? · · Score: 1

    I use a great product called Linux Arbitrator..as I'm sure a lot of you are familiar with it. I put it in my DMZ..with a farm of machines behind it and it throttles whatever traffic I want based on port, traffic type, ip address or MAC address. http://www.bandwidtharbitrator.com/ Check it out..I think you'll like what it offers.

    1 Scent of a Woman 2 Donnie Darko 3 Das Boot I think Al Pacino did one hell of a job in Scent of a Woman and not that many people have seen it. Donnie Darko was just an all around good movie, if you like that kind of mysteria. And come on, Das Boot, how can you go wrong there. pgp4privacy
