Is fast approaching. April 10th to be exact. While I’ve not been in the past (I was busy last year), I’d like to attend this year, and perhaps even contribute something.
I’m just trying to think of some topic’s that I could maybe discuss at BarCamp.
Here’s a list of things I’ve thought of so far… (I’ll [...]
A friend emailed me tonight asking how he could create a file on his Linux system of a specific size, but with no real data in it…
He could have googled… but. Here’s a run down:
dd if=/dev/zero of=somefile bs=1024 count=1048576
dd – the command
if – input file (zero in this case)
of – output file
bs – byte size
count [...]
If you administer Linux servers, you might have heard of Webmin. If you haven’t, then you should take a look!
Well today, Jamie Cameron (Webmin developer) e-mailed me a sneak peek of the Webmin mobile device theme which will be released within the next week or so
The add-on is a theme that allows a mobile user [...]
Check this out.. Run Fedora 9 (and other LINUX’s) right off a USB stick. Plug it in, boot it up, instant mobile desktop, with the liveusb-creator
“The liveusb-creator is a cross-platform tool for easily installing live operating systems on to USB flash drives.”
I tried it, it works, it’s super cool. Mind you I tried [...]
Today Fedora 8 is available to the public. I’ve been trying to find a mirror to download it however it seems everyone has the same idea and most sites are flooded and timing out. The demand must be huge. I’m pulling it down now via torrent. This could take a while!
I’ll have more information soon. [...]
I use transmission to download files sometimes, it’s a torrent client. http://transmission.m0k.org
It has a neat feature where you can set how much bandwidth the client has during certain hours, like an on peak and off peak.
My off-peak quota is 15Gig, not much I know, and isn’t nearly used enough. So I figured why not set [...]

Today I’ve migrated this web site to a dedicated web server that I’ve setup in the USA with Superb Hosting.
It’s expensive to have the server, but hopefully I will have some web clients that will help ease the monthly costs! The server is just an Intel consumer box running Linux (Fedora Core 6)
The speed improvement [...]
Last night I setup a backup scheme for a client, they have two Linux machines, a mail server and an intranet server, with no real backup….
I setup a little ‘rsync’ script, that uses SSH to copy data from one machine to the other. It’s all setup on the one server, it copies data off the [...]
