It was posted a few days ago, but this article on incron was interesting. Rather than run a script every so often to check for new files to be processed, this hooks into the kernel and triggers a script when a file handle event occurs. Even my Mum mentioned the “Me-Tube” [sic] incident. Renesys blog [...]
Not sure why but I searched for my name in Google. Fairly common name so it wasn’t till about page 7 that this showed up. So I poked around a bit on the SFS site and found some more photos of us. Kuro5hin article barracking for more modularisation and sharing between software projects. Apple stops [...]
At $work[0] we’ve had issues with a server that has a Nvidia SATA controller. The errors look a little something like: ata2.00: cmd 60/08:78:3f:8f:3b/00:00:00:00:00/40 tag 15 cdb 0×0 data 4096 in res 40/00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/00 Emask 0×4 (timeout) ata2.00: cmd 61/00:80:66:32:77/01:00:00:00:00/40 tag 16 cdb 0×0 data 131072 out res 40/00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/00 Emask 0×4 (timeout) ata2: soft resetting port [...]
I’m a Sony Ericcsson fanboi. Despite wanting a “smart phone” the P1 was totally underwhelming, so I upgraded to a k850i. Just in time for them to release the g900. Sigh. “It’s a doggone chart buster – a song audible only to dogs has topped New Zealand record charts, and is looking to go global.” [...]
I’ve followed with interest the cable cuts in the Med and Middle East that have seen rumour layered upon rumour and every armchair commentator lathered in to a frenzy with conspiracy theories. There has been excellent coverage at the Renesys blog (Parts 1, 2, 3, quash Iran rumours, 4, summary) and Data Centre Knowledge has [...]
Data Centre Knowledge reports on Speed Cabling and links to another story and the official site. Crimping tools at 20 paces. What will they think of next?!? Stilgherrian links to a story at El Reg on the cable cut rumours. Speaking of the cable cuts, the Beebs has a nice article covering all the basics [...]
So, I admit it’s been a while since I really looked into x86 hardware, but I remember a time when Intel and AMD (and any other CPU manufacturer…) had 2-3 lines at most. There was the one aimed at servers pitched at a speed/feature set, the one aimed at desktops pitched at a price point [...]
So, at $work[0] we needed to do a “many to one” SNAT on Cisco IOS. I’d only ever previously done this by SNAT’ing to an interface, however this required specifying the IP. My Google-fu failed me, I could turn up how to do the “SNAT to interface” and “SNAT one to one from a network [...]
