Solaris 7 does indeed have built in logging, but you have to enable it with the `mount -o logging` option or by putting logging in the last field of the/etc/vfstab file.
Type `man mount_ufs` for more info.
UFS logging kicks ass. No more fsck. Accidentally trip over the power cable? No problem.
Linux - I have Red Hat 6 on a server. Within two days of installing it it crashed. The file system was so screwed up it wouldn't boot again. After two days of smacking my head against a wall, I was forced to reinstall.
The ext2 filesystem is just the tip of the iceberg of Linux's problems. The kernel might scale to a whopty-do 4 processors, but the TCP/IP stack is single threaded and therefore doesn't scale beyond one processor. This makes Linux SMP useless on servers.
You don't have to be in Europe to do these things (although the European systems do seem cooler).
I have a NeoPoint 1000 PDA phone that I use with SprintPCS. Kind of Palm Pilot'ish except that you can't use a pen.
It's rather painful to add information into the PDA with the phone without handwriting support, but the cool thing about it is the voice recognition based dialing! It keeps your eyes on the road while driving.
It's $20 Billion with a 'B'. 1,000 times bigger - and in stock. The value is now acually higher than $20 billion because Lucent's stock price rose on Friday.
The press release says that Samaba 2.0 implements the NT Domain authentication protocols:
Samba 2.0 features the first non-Microsoft implementation of the Windows NT Domain authentication protocols, allowing a Samba 2.0 server to be seamlessly integrated into an existing Windows NT Domain.
But the README says:
In addition, there are outstanding (known) bugs with using Samba as a PDC in this release that the Samba Team are actively working on. For this reason we have chosen not to advertise and actively support Primary Domain Controller functionality with this release.
It seems like they are publicizing it. Or does the 2.0 release do something other than PDC emulation?
Type `man mount_ufs` for more info.
