Infiltrator

When I did my CCNA, about 4 years ago, the lab used to have a big rack with 6 cisco switches and routers, can't remember precisely what models/types. There were over 8 standalone computers and the lab was pretty much it. We did however use Packet tracer and GNS3 for training as well.

I use almost the same method for backing up as you do, backing up to an external hdd or to another device on the network. In addition, what tape of tape drive do you use? So far I have only been backing up to nas devices, but haven't used any tape drive. Since I haven't decided what type/brand to get from?

What's the video quality on these cameras like?

Loved the case, its that case from Antec?

Just bridge the two network interfaces together, on your laptop then connect the desktop to the laptop via an Ethernet cable.

I've never used CentOS before, so I can't comment on that. However I have used Ubuntu and liked it very much. Great performance and above all very stable.

If you want to crack passwords using a cluster, invest into nvidia graphics card, like the GTX 580s. They have over 500 cores, of parallel processing power and they are more efficient than having over 50 standalone computers. And to crack PDF passwords, you will need a distributed password cracker like http://www.elcomsoft.com/edpr.html

I very much agree, nothing is safer than having a full backup of your data. Hard drives are inexpensive but they do fail eventually. Keeping a full backup of all the data is very important, however just out of curiosity what do you guys use for backing up your data? Do you guys use any backup tape drive at all? Or just DVDs?

Sorry wasn't clear enough!

I was referring to the wireless connectivity in the printer. I own a Cannon printer, which has wireless connectivity capabilities built in to it. So when enabled, it broadcasts its SSID just like a normal access point would. And then you can connect to it, from your computer.

Do you know who administers the website? You could ask him/her for the password, that way you are not doing anything illegal.

Are you able to use this hard drive on another machine?

It not only would be useless for normal users to own such CPU, but also a waste of money. Nvdia graphics cards could be used instead, they would be a lot more efficient and cheap as well.

What raid are you trying to boot the system on?

Most wireless devices like a printer for instance broadcasts its SSID. It could be that the device you are trying to connect to may be a printer or another device that is not an access point at all.

I never thought I would stop using floppy disks in favor of USB. Floppy disks used to be cool back in the old days, but now they have been succeeded by USB sticks. But don't you love technology. Its so friendly to us, always bringing us new and better toys.

Just turn off the server, unplug the faulty hard drive plug in the replacement and power it back up. And then go to the Raid controller control panel and rebuild the array. Should be an easy task and tell your friend how important backup really is.

Raid 6 may give you better redundancy but offers minimal performance, in terms of reading/writing. I would only recommend it, in situations where you would require more redundancy than performance. However you can still get good performance out of your raid 6 configuration, if you invest into a decent raid controller.

Raid 5 requires a minimum of 3 hard drives and they all must be equal in size. With Raid 5 you also loose some capacity, due to the parity checks it performs. So if you have x4 1TB hard drive, you only get 3.3TB of storage just like Sparda pointed out. In other words, its just how Raid 5 works, you have done nothing wrong.

You will need to a decent hardware, if you want to run a webserver. I am not talking a high-end server which will cost several hundred dollars. I used to run a web server before, on an OK hardware, 1.66Ghz cpu (non-threaded), 7.5K 250 GB Hard drive and 4 gigs of ram, use to get good performance out of the box, but the only limiting factor will be your ADSL upload speeds, which won't be very fast as your normal download speeds. So something to think about, if you plan on hosting heavy contents like (pictures or videos). Initially I bought a domain and purchased a Static IP address. Was paying too much of money for the domain registration, for the static ip address so I cancelled them. If I were you, I would do what Digip suggested, keep your current IP address and go with a Dyndns account, that's what I have at the moment. For the OS I would probably use Ubuntu, its a very stable OS but you definitely need a decent hardware to run it on.

The movie was pretty cool, but it was not based on true events.

In a server environment this CPU will dramatically improve performance, specially in the area of Virtualization. But the only limiting factor, is the BUS width of the motherboard, no motherboard can currently handle this vast amount of data. They will need to redesign the BUS, just like how Intel did with the I7 CPUs, which they all use quickpath interconnect, which can handle a lot more data, than the former front side bus. Plus applications will need to be optimized, in order to support all the 1000 cores simultaneously.

May I recommend you this tutorial on CSS. It should clear a lot of things for you. It also have other tutorials like HTML5, so I think it would be a good starting place to learn, I use it sometimes when I am doing a bit of PHP coding myself. http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

I don't see anything wrong with the hostname. When I ping my Windows 7 Machine hostname, I get a reply with an IPv6 address. What you can do is, disable the IP6 version on your ethernet adapter and only leave the IPV4 version enabled and restart your computer.

Hi 555, Div #content_outleft I think this is the declaration you are looking for. #content_outleft { margin: 0 0 0 188px; If you are using Windows, I would suggestion downloading a Text Editor, where you can search through the CSS code lines, to make the job easier for you.
