    Solaris 2.5.1 Veritas VM 3.0.4 Mirroring - How is it handled

    Does anyone know what algorithm is used? If at has a 3 way mirror, will Veritas ACK the write back to the app after the primary mirror hardware has reported the write complete, or does it wait for all mirrors to ACK first? Yes, I'm aware Sol2.5.1 and VxVM 3.0.4 are more ancient than the hills...

    FalconStor IPStor and Big Brother on Linux

    Maybe it'll actually post this time. ... We are trying to integrate FalconStor's IPStor SAN appliance into our existing Big Brother monitoring. While I can write the scripts to integrate it. I thought I'd see if anyone had already done so. So does anyone know of any good bb-ext scripts for...

    Proxy and mail setup nightmare

    /etc/shorewall/rules should hold the key (I think Fedora is still using that) The line ACCEPT <internal zone> all tcp 25,110 Should allow your clients to reach the servers

    We are trying to integrate FalconStor's IPStor SAN appliance into our existing Big Brother monitoring. While I can write the scripts to integrate it. I thought I'd see if anyone had already done so. So does anyone know of any good bb-ext scripts for monitoring an IPStor and replication status?

    Need a fast &quot;tail -f&quot; like command

    Nice solution Annihilannic.. That's got style... something like #use a reasonable starting value DELAY=10 LAST_SIZE=$((`ls -l $1|awk '{print $5}'`-1024 )) while true do TAIL_OFFSET=$(( `ls -l $1|awk '{print $5}'` -${LAST_SIZE} )) tail -${TAIL_OFFSET}c $1 LAST_SIZE=`ls -l $1|awk...

    Active Directory + Solaris integration

    Sounds like the client update to the domain controller is slow..check it's timeouts and syncronization intervals. I'd bet the old password would still work for about 30 min after the password change.

    Telnet to server not working - routing prob ?

    I was going to say, it sounds like login is timing you on the reverse DNS lookup. This can generate up to a 15 minute (5 min timeout x 3 attempts) delay before presenting the login prompt. very common problem with incorrect DNS settings or a bad DNS server.

    bsm audit files

    Question 1: What version of Solaris Question 2: What is generating the largest percentage of the log entries? Once I have that I can begin to help you determine how to trim up your auditing.

    user account passwd issues

    MANY versions of ssh aside from the one shipped by Sun for Solaris 9 or Solaris 10, are not configured using the --with-pam option. No PAM = No password aging. It also causes wtmp/utmp problems as well. See here: 3.15 - OpenSSH versions and PAM behaviour. Portable OpenSSH has a configure-time...

    Check your jumpers. Sounds like dual masters or one cable select. and a master...that'd do it.

    Sambones is correct. find is the most effective way to do it.

    Can I hide the process appearance ?

    There are very few options for this. 1: Never include a password in your commandline. 2: The application should be able to 'rewrite' it's commandline in kernel space if it requires a password on the commandline. - Many do not, but they can if written properly - 3: make ps impossible to use for...
