Re: Problems with Duron Procesor

2001-12-15 Thread Jason Lim
Let me confirm to you that AMD Durons from 700-1.1G work perfectly with Kernel 2.2.19 and 2.4.16. We have over 10 such boxes running 2.4.16 and they are all rock solid. Faster than the PIII and P4 boxes. So whatever is going down, it is your motherboard, heatsink, something. Just a reminder... D

MicroATX Motherboard with 1.5-2GB Ram?

Hi, Does anyone know of a good MicroATX motherboard that supports 1.5-2GB of RAM? MicroATX motherboards make nice servers (small form factor, and support nearly everything conventional ATX motherboards have), but they SEEM to usually only have 2 DIMM slots (512Mx2=1024M max). Have you over come

Well, we've had RTL8139 cards in servers up for about 60-70 days with no problem. Don't know about the outgoing/ping issue as the servers are always in use, but they appear reliable. Sincerely, Jason - Original Message - From: "John Gonzalez, Tularosa Communications" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Best way to duplicate HDs

2001-12-31 Thread Jason Lim
Hi all, What do you think would be the best way to duplicate a HD to another (similar sized) HD? I'm thinking that a live RAID solution isn't the best option, as (for example) if crackers got in and fiddled with the system, all the HDs would end up having the same fiddled files. If the HD is du

While I've never run things from /home/*/public_html/cgi-bin/somethinghere.cgi, we've always had to recompile suexec to get things working. suexec has hard-compiled in the allowed directory, so you'd need to recompile that to get some other directory to work. I suggest you try that. Sincerely,
