best performance on large files that i've ever seen (3 years ago), i also always have been able to recover +99,9% of all the data when the hd crashed (i had a very flaky hd that was just over a year old -- goodbye warranty:( -- and crashed a lot)
Not true. I've rarely had a problem compiling things that aren't in the ports tree manually (quite rare, considering there are 19,000+ ports) and those that I did have issues with always failed as they depended on certain Linuxism.
i never mentionned ports, offcourse they work they have been edited to... WORK i'm talking about all those source code tarballs you can get from every damn sourceforge,berlios or freshmeat project, you know... shit that's outside of ports
You are wrong. FreeBSD defaults to tcsh, and csh is mearly a symlink. Not to mention if they are actually using a shell and not a GUI, they should know what chsh is.
i'm not wrong, you just were 2 damn eager to reply... reread my sentence please
What? You can't edit passwd directly, FreeBSD uses shadow passwords, use vipw. You also don't need to use VI. If you want a simple editor use ee
huh ? the shells get defined in passwd it has nothing to do with shadow (where the hashes of your passwords lie) and one can edit that directly (root user) although it's not wise !
Very, very often I scratch my head and wonder why there's such an obsession with the Linux kernel when it comes to desktops based around GNOME/KDE. From a desktop end-user point of view (and I'm an end-user), there's little difference between the two. The various types of BSD have great wifi card support, and most printers are supported by CUPS nowadays independently of the kernel. That's just about all I need, to be honest. Everything else I need is provided by software, such as Firefox.
What I like most about BSD is simply that it isn't Linux. It hasn't got the baggage that Linux has. I can mention it in polite conversation without being thought of as a fanatic. There are very, very few BSD fanboys -- people using it tend to be older, and more mature. It doesn't get on Digg, and if it does there will be like 10 comments from people passing the time, rather than debating how Windoze sux!!!!1!
This is a great thing. Perhaps it's just like Linux used to be 10 years ago.
linux today has the momentum and the hardware support. i would switch if i could run vmware
and if there finally was full XFS support
i don't want to get into the 'which fs' is best discussion because i settled on XFS a long while ago and have been extremely happy since
untill XFS is fully supported i won't touch BSD on my home machine also... autoconf/automake source code tends to be developped and hence compile cleanly on linux while in FreeBSD it does require some serious fiddling another odd point i think, could be wrong about this one is that a lot of people learned the bash shell and the BSD's & solaris tend to default to csh or tcsh (i like tcsh but i really loathe csh -- no tab completion ? ) offcorse a chsh can fix that, but most linux users have never had the need for that command and most don't even know it exists yes one can edit passwd directly but then you have to use vi instead of vim unless you install it with ports which requires yet another man lookup etc... it's unix but it differs just enough from linux to be annoying to affiliates:D
yes i've tried it and yes i'll play with it more in vmware but right now my slackware is my most useable and enjoyable system
i could be wrong but iirc nmap by default only scans 17xx widely used ports scanning the whole range (-p 1-65535) takes a lot of time and most automated tools (script-kiddies) won't waste their time on that one imho and if they do then the attack is probably personal. and the experienced attacker (although sometimes it's a nmap newbie/curious person) would have a lot more tricks up his sleeve than just scanning ports and then yes configuring your public services with the principle of 'least priveledge for the job' in mind, sanitising your scripts (php), don't let your SQL server listen at the world unless you really have to, are indeed better security measures. but by god... running your 'special' services on non-standard ports is still a good way to get all these automated scan attempts to not hit your server incessantly. if an automated tool finds a webmin port open it'll try an extra scan to get the version string (-sV),... or it could try a dictionairy attack,....
i guess you should pay close attention to the size of a programmers webcam collection most programmers hold dear to the beta-testing-production routine:D
RAID5 is going to kill your performance, no matter what kind of CPU you have. Don't expect much above 20-30mb/sec unless you spend a zillion dollars on a hardware-accelerated RAID controller
As for the validity of the IQ test, it had two nearly identical Bible questions (which book comes after Genesis). Is such simple factual knowledge even relevant to IQ?
backtrack is pretty sweet tho
it's the only kde based live cd i can actually appreciate out of the box(nice theme, small taskbar, no stupid eyecandy) and it's very solid due to its slackware underpinnings, odd thing is that it drops you in root by default
It's the same with hardware emulators -- the programming interface must be the same as that of the original hardware. And the software "thinks" it's running on the original hardware.
huh ?
so your great grandfather was killed by your great granduncles ??? and your great great grandfather took revenge at a drive-by shooting ? please elaborate this doesn't make much sense
do notice however that all these killings were at the hands of gunowners.
this could greatly facilitate finding the proper people to fund OSS development especially if it's by the right companies (ibm,google,redhat,novell,...)
my question ? where do they get the reference light to base their redshift off it could just be a very HOT star eg a star with some odd materials and thus more red light can someone please elaborate
it's a dark tower:gunslinger (stephen king) reference, the paragraph stems from one of the early books in the saga when he, the gunslinger (roland) is still assembling his team, and in doing so, needs to find his future comrades in different (parallel?) worlds

what's nano ... i really need vim not vi
it's not hard it's just not slackware or Solaris :D
and i really missed having a paper issue of the manual

also
while in FreeBSD it does require some serious fiddling
another odd point i think, could be wrong about this one
is that a lot of people learned the bash shell and the BSD's & solaris
tend to default to csh or tcsh (i like tcsh but i really loathe csh -- no tab completion ? )
offcorse a chsh can fix that, but most linux users have never had the need for that command and most don't even know it exists
yes one can edit passwd directly
but then you have to use vi instead of vim unless you install it with ports
which requires yet another man lookup etc

would have a lot more tricks up his sleeve than just scanning ports
and then yes configuring your public services with the principle of 'least priveledge for the job' in mind, sanitising your scripts (php), don't let your SQL server listen at the world unless you really have to, are indeed better security measures.
but by god
if an automated tool finds a webmin port open it'll try an extra scan to get the version string (-sV),
just asking, does microsoft's vista or xp come with something similar to ulimit ?

but it has become my favorite live cd since slax
try slocate
what about nbtstat ?
what was the most foul comment you encountered :D ? and where did it reside
can you give me some pointers on how to do this ?
lately i've been thinking about this http://www.vernalex.com/guides/sysprep/introduction.shtml
but i just can't seem to find the ideal solution myself
huh ?
so your great grandfather was killed by your great granduncles ??? and your great great grandfather took revenge at a drive-by shooting ?
please elaborate this doesn't make much sense
do notice however that all these killings were at the hands of gunowners.
do you mean label as in use the label tag or label as in use the alt attribute or another attribute ?
