I'm running a nightly backup using dump. I'm outputting the information
to a log file /var/log/backup. I would like to add to the file each time
I run a backup. How do I do that? Do I use cat?

Check out this article on Slashdot. It's important to note SCO's
(formerly known as Caldera) role in Linux obtaining SMP code. They had a
programmer who was working on SMP for Linux. It's easy to see how code
would have been copied from UNIX to Linux that way. If that is even what
happened.

Have you tried using screen? That's what I use. You simply:
# screen
# ./hlds_run ...
# ctrl-D (detach screen)
Then when you want to access it again you have to use
screen -r

I'm using tar to do nightly backups. I would like to get some useful
information out of it to put in a log file. I would like to know if the
backup completed successfully, how big the backup was and what files had
to be excluded. Does anyone have any ideas?

I've tried the -v option but my logs come out to be 5-10Mb in size
(depending on the server). It just lists the file names being backed up.

So what this does is start screen, detach the session and run hlds. Then
if you want to access it you can just type 'screen -r' from the command
line.
I hope that answers your question.

Some versions of ghost could only copy a Linux partition. They would not
be able to resize it. I can't remember what versions. All you would have
to do in this case is use parted though. That is what the tool was
designed for. :)

In the future, you might want to consider using parted instead of fdisk.
Parted will create the file system at the same time that it creates the
partition. Although, it is a bit more risky to use. I've blown away
whole drives with one misinformed command. :/
> Thanks to all you guys who answe
I just did this a week or so ago. The way I did it was this:
1) Put the new hard drive in as a slave.
2) Used parted to create the filesystem. (parted also has the ability to
copy a filesystem but I couldn't get this to work)
3) Copy the file system with the cp command. I can't remember if I
I whole heartedly agree. I'm constantly in search of new clients because
once the server is installed, there isn't anything else for me to bill
for. The last time I had any server downtime at any of my clients was 3
years ago. And that was a new server install that had faulty RAM...

Believe it or not, I and Linux got the rap for that bad RAM. That

There is no such thing as a 'hidden' cost. If you consider maintenance
costs as hidden, you need to open your eyes.
Any organization that limits itself to a single technology ends up costing
itself much more money than they might save in personnel. Most major
companies have realized this and use

Great. That's what I'm doing now but I wasn't sure if there was a better
way to do it.

If you are looking for proprietary software, BRU is pretty nice. I've
also used LoneTar which was okay. I don't remember if LoneTar had a X
frontend. I know it uses Curses.

There are quite a few, very easy to install firewalls on freshmeat.net. I
personally like firewall by Jim. It has a nice install script and
wouldn't be any more difficult to install than any other program. That
is, as long as your kernel is properly configured and you have Iptables
installed.

Is there a program that will keep track of your server's uptime? Like
give you your longest uptime and give you uptime percentages for year,
month, week and day?

If that doesn't work, make sure your Windows machine has the same
workgroup name defined. Also, you might have to enable WINS support on
both the client and the server. Sometimes other protocols like IPX
interfere. Make sure you have unused protocols removed.

I Need to scan the network at one of me clients to see which PCs are being
left on at night. What is the best way to do this? Currently I'm using:
nmap -sP. Will that give any false responses? For instance, computers
that have WOL enabled?
Thank you for any help.

It's been a while since I've played with X but here is what I can remember:
Check the "screen" section and make sure the "display" mode is 800x600.
Also make sure the depth is something your card can handle (try 8 first).
Also, there might be a XF86Config-4 file that you also may need to edit
in

it was something wrong with my old server so I didn't bother much with it.

I've tried to update both of them to 2.4.19, 2.4.20 and 2.4.21. They
