Pardon the digression; just wanted to point out that sudo has (for the
last few years) supported sudo -i, which has almost completely negated
the need for sudo su - here.
To date,
For those who goes this route with currently shipping devices and
firmware revs, please reply back to the list with whatever device you
end up going with.
And also any good/bad experiences and the 'coulda be better...' parts,
after you've had a little time to play with it.
Very handy information.

Thank you *very* much to Ted, Tracy, Doug, Adam, and Paul
Very interesting food for thought; I'm further evaluating everybody's
suggestions.
I am absolutely confident that the two former university buddies will be
delighted (as I am!).
Thanks again!

Swap is the computing equivalent of a bank's overdraft feature. :-)
In other words, overdrafting is no problem as long as you can quickly
pay it back.
If you can't and have gotten too deep into it (with actually needing

Friends from university days asked me an intriguing question the other day.
How would you configure either Nagios or Zabbix to monitor how much data
has flowed through a particular Ethernet interface for, say, the past 31

I guess the idea is to set an alarm if they start to approach 85% (or

One good all-around book I'd highly recommend is Ernie Malaga (et al.)'s

Two key questions:
1) Is it at the latest 10.4 rev? (10.4.11, IIRC?) If not, update it.
