I have no firewall set on my machine but the university does however they tell me that they do not restrict bittorrents. I don't know how to check the number of seeds and /or number of clients.

The above is true but I waited 2 hours and not even 1 CD was downloaded. -- Aaron Konstam <akonstam(a)sbcglobal.net>

Dell to Linux users: Not so fast Todd R. Weiss, Computerworld Tue Feb 27, 6:48 PM ET San Francisco (InfoWorld) - If you're looking for a new Linux-equipped Dell laptop or desktop from the PC vendor, you may be waiting a while. Despite obvious support for the idea last week from thousands of visitors on its new customer suggestion Web site, IdeaStorm, the company said it's not yet building machines with Linux pre-loaded for the consumer and business markets.

Building a strat1/2 time server
by Weiner, Michael 28 Feb '07

28 Feb '07

Dear list readers - Sorry to cause some additional noise on the list, but I am looking for help in building a strat1 or 2 time server. I have a Fedora Core 6 server running with the latest NTP server installed. What I am trying to do actually is build an authoritative or reference time server that we can use here for testing daylight saving time adjustments in our environment. After thinking about it, I have come to the sane conclusion that this wont work with a normal ntp server as it will constantly want to FIX the time back and my ntpclients wont pull time if the server is out of whack. So I need to build an ntp server that doesn't go out and sync with an outside source, that my clients can use in this test environment. So, my question is, just how do you build one? Any insights and additional information would be greatly appreciated.

BIND not resolving some addresses
by Tim 28 Feb '07

28 Feb '07

Hi, Recently I've tried to follow a few links in e-mails and news, to find the browser couldn't do so. At first I thought it was just the server being temporarily unavailable, but realised it's BIND. And it's all the BINDs that I have (the latest available using yum on FC4, FC5 & FC6). For example, doing a dig on eweek.com it takes ages and eventually fails. Conversely, doing a dig using my routers resolver, returns results almost instantly. I don't use it, however, for two reasons: I use internal DNS servers for the LAN, and my ISP's servers aren't always very good (don't ask me why, I'm not the one that manages them). Samples from different BIND servers and the router below. I wonder if anybody knows why, and whether they get the same effect for that address? There's about three addresses that I couldn't resolve, but that's the only one that I can remember, at the moment. -------------------------------- [tim@serge .gnupg]$ dig eweek.com ; <<>> DiG 9.3.3rc3 <<>> eweek.com ;; global options: printcmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached -------------------------------- [tim@serge .gnupg]$ dig eweek.com @localhost ; <<>> DiG 9.3.3rc3 <<>> eweek.com @localhost ; (2 servers found) ;; global options: printcmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached ------------------------------ [tim@serge .gnupg]$ dig eweek.com @server ; <<>> DiG 9.3.3rc3 <<>> eweek.com @server ; (1 server found) ;; global options: printcmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached ------------------------------ [tim@serge .gnupg]$ dig eweek.com @router ; <<>> DiG 9.3.3rc3 <<>> eweek.com @router ; (1 server found) ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 17304 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;eweek.com.
