Help! I can no longer boot F12
by Dan Thurman 02 Nov '12

Apparently, my disk started failing and dropped some critical files. I tried to use LiveCD but I cannot do a linux rescue What I planned to do was to yum reinstall and try to recover what is missing. Does this make any sense?

Routing packets through specific interface
by Alex 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Hi, I have a host with an ethernet interface and an alias that I've created. I need packets to specifically be routed through the alias interface because that is the IP address the remote host is expecting. Should I do this using SNAT or otherwise with iptables? Does someone have an example they can forward on for routing all packets through a specific interface? Just to be clear, when I telnet to a specific port on a remote host, the remote host receives it as the primary interface. It should be leaving the source through the virtual IP. Thanks, Alex

Download video from vimeo
by Junayeed Ahnaf 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Hello, In windows, there's this software called Internet Download Manager (IDM) which performs all sort of cool grab and stuff, it even shows a tiny download button on top of videos through which I can download them. I was wondering if there's something like that for Linux too. I usually use aria2 with a cute UI (https://github.com/ziahamza/webui-aria2) but it would be really nice if I can at least post the link of a video and have it downloaded through a desktop application. You guys know anything? Junayeed Ahnaf Nirjhor Software Engineer @ Hulu Twitter @ Nirjhor
