If you don't have a .htaccess file, then why have the
AllowOverride directive in the .conf file?
Putting AllowOverride in means that every time apache retrieves a file

Some do, some don't. They all come with USB ports though.

I gave up on NFS quotas - it was a while ago, but I seem to remember
that it sort of just about worked with an EXT4 server file system, but
was a pig with an XFS server. My instinct is that it

SystemD for a while now honestly I don't mind it. While the language

there are some things I like about it more than SysVInit.

SystemD but
Fedora/RHEL has changed the way they handle some things. NICs, for
instance, are no longer named after the device number (eth0, eth1,
eth2, etc.) but after the *driver* name. Yes, it's a change but it
also makes sense. IIRC this is how FreeBSD handles NIC names.

They're non-exposed hosts doing very specific things - think internal

There are tools to audit source code for problems - OSS is safer

Hi Adrian,
Could you provide more information? What are you trying to do? Is
this a new system? What software and hardware are you using?
Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.
