Re: [BLUG] SAN (for Ubuntu 8.4 and 10.4) recommendation?

Well, it's not too 'big' either given that nowadays you can buy a 4TB
HD! ; -)

I just had to remark that 10 TB being small seems funny to me, given the
amount of memory I use to get by with.

[BLUG] SAN (for Ubuntu 8.4 and 10.4) recommendation?

Hi,

Anyone in the group have any recommendation of a small scale SAN that
works well with Ubuntu (especially for 8.4 and 10.4)? It's for a small
lab and the storage requirement is not high (probably between 5 to 10
TB?). I'm seeking for 1) ease of installation/maintenance 2)
performance and 3) reliability. I know it's vague but just a starting
point.

Thanks,
Shing-Shong Shei

[BLUG] Courseload in Indy is looking for a system engineer to design and manage a cloud-based infrastructure

Courseload has a very beautiful HTML5 application for universities to manage e-texts.  They are well-funded, past the startup stage and have paying customers including IU.

You can see their job posting here.

They are also looking for a web developer and a front-designer.

If you or anyone you know is interested, send me a note at my work email -- jmckean@careerinvestments.com -- and I will get them considered.

[BLUG] gnome-terminal, xfce4-terminal, terminator and others are unsafe

I'm trying to release this many places so that people see it and
take care of it for themselves. Terminal emulators that use the
libvte library, which include gnome-terminal, xfce4-terminal,
terminator and guake write their scrollback buffer history to disk in
the /tmp directory:

A video showing how this works and why you should be concerned is here:

Re: [BLUG] Mounting a network drive

Are these CIFS file shares? or NFS?

[BLUG] Mounting a network drive

Hi,

If anyone is up to doing a 'Mounting network drives in Redhat for Dummies' primer, I'd be most obliged.   My Googling abilities seem a bit suspect on the topic.

I have a Redhat server that I want to write backup files from to a QNAP NAS which runs some flavor of Linux.  I can't remember what it is off the top of my head and am on my way downtown to an appt with Dr. CrazyHorse but can get the info Monday if it's needed.

I can navigate to the share on the NAS from Redhat and have no access restrictions on that share at all but still don't seem to be able to write my backups to it. 

I'm hoping that if I mount a drive I'll have more luck.  I just can't seem to get the syntax correct.

Thanks In Advance!
