In this case, the supporting cast is known as a Linux distribution--a useful set of system and application programs bundled with the OS. Edd Dumbill serves up overviews of the major Linux distributions as well as the specialist distros, and for who (or what) each distro is best suited. > http://oreilly.creativemessage.com/Newsletter.aspx?s=c4e37991-f307-4547-91bf-696e7d81c5bf&l=2&n=2&i=259&a=3611&o=1 > > ** KWord Trouble ** > Noel Davis looks at problems in KWord, SPE under Gentoo, wget, Brightstore, eTrust, Unicenter, OpenSSL, XMail, uw-imap, weex, tcpdump, graphviz, up-imapproxy, xloadimage and xli, and Ruby. > http://oreilly.creativemessage.com/Newsletter.aspx?s=c4e37991-f307-4547-91bf-696e7d81c5bf&l=2&n=2&i=259&a=3612&o=1 > > ** What Is Open Source ** > Answering the question What is open source? used to be a lot simpler than it is today. Dan Woods provides some insight by first explaining how open source software is developed, then delving into how different groups define the term, and closing with a look at how open source institutions continue to advance the cause. Dan is coauthor of Open Source for the Enterprise. > http://oreilly.creativemessage.com/Newsletter.aspx?s=c4e37991-f307-4547-91bf-696e7d81c5bf&l=2&n=2&i=259&a=3597&o=1 > > ** Processing XML with Xerces and the DOM ** > It's rare to write an application these days and not run into the use of XML as a data interchange format. Perl, Java, Python, C#, Ruby, JavaScript, and PHP all have good XML processing libraries. Where's the love for C++ applications? It's in Xerces, a capable and open source library. Ethan McCallum shows how to use Xerces and C++ to process, manipulate, search, and write valid XML. > http://oreilly.creativemessage.com/Newsletter.aspx?s=c4e37991-f307-4547-91bf-696e7d81c5bf&l=2&n=2&i=259&a=3598&o=1 > > ** MySQL Trouble ** > Noel Davis looks at problems in MySQL, umount, KDE's kcheckpass, GNOME Workstation Command Center, X.org, Squid, TWiki, ncompress, grip, Turquoise SuperStat, gtkdiskfree, and LessTif. > > http://oreilly.creativemessage.com/Newsletter.aspx?s=c4e37991-f307-4547-91bf-696e7d81c5bf&l=2&n=2&i=259&a=3600&o=1 > > ** Problems in PCRE, the Linux Kernel, and SILC ** > Noel Davis looks at problems in PCRE, the Linux kernel, SILC, Frox, MPlayer, pam_ldap, maildrop, lm_sensors, simpleproxy, backup-manager, Adobe Version Cue, phpGroupWare, and webcalendar > http://oreilly.creativemessage.com/Newsletter.aspx?s=c4e37991-f307-4547-91bf-696e7d81c5bf&l=2&n=2&i=259&a=3601&o=1 > > ** Improving Network Reliability with Keepalived ** > No matter how good the software, hardware eventually fails. Redundancy is an important way to keep your important services running smoothly. With the right software, you can even sleep through otherwise catastrophic network failures. Philip Hollenback demonstrates how to make your network robust by using Keepalived on multiple Linux routers. > http://oreilly.creativemessage.com/Newsletter.aspx?s=c4e37991-f307-4547-91bf-696e7d81c5bf&l=2&n=2&i=259&a=3602&o=1 > > ** What Is the X Window System ** > Developed at MIT in 1984, the X Window System, now up to X11 release 6, or X11R6, has been the standard environment for Unix windowing systems.

If you get really popular, though, you'll spend all of your money and bandwidth being popular--and then what? Consider P2P distribution with BitTorrent, which allows your users to share pieces of your file with each other, giving them faster transfers and you fewer headaches.

J? temos um servidor de subversion a bombar no viana.pm.org (cog: sim, svk fala com isto) Para esta tarefa foi necessario alterar algumas coisas. Apache1 para Apache2 e tudo o que vem desta altera??o, isto pq: Podia optar pela maneira mais simples, o que n?o aconteceu :D. Instalar um Subversion daemon, abrir uma porta na Firewall mapear essa porta para a m?quina/jail onde corre o viana.pm/subversion, et voil?. ou Continuar tudo a operar sobre HTTP, e ter uma rede limpa, o ideal ;-). Para isso foi necess?rio como j? disse, instalar o Apache2+mod_Nmerdas O subversion com mod_dav entre outros que podem ver no link abaixo. Desta forma o url ? apontado a um http://viana.pm.prg/svn/ (requer auth) e o apache trata dos commits na arvore. Claro que nem tudo ? cor de rosinha, com esta altera??o (apache), foi necess?rio reconfigurar o mason e a tralha toda por este usado. Entretanto tb instalei um http://viana.pm.org/trac/ (requer auth) :D, para por a coisa mais nita ainda.. wiki, browse source etc,, t? lindo... Agora, ainda falta umas coisas, vejamos subversion+trac+svk+some_word_here_about_this_stuff :D - Tenho de por ssl sobre http - Com o cog definir as politicas de acesso (leitura/escrita) em cada ramo. - Testar tudo para por em producao servidor de mail -n merdas aqui listadas que depois escrevo...(tou com o cerebro switched para outra coisa que nao postfixes e afins :) ) Bem, podem ver umas notitas que fui tirando ao longo da noite. Relembro que isto s?o notas minhas, n?o se trata de um post de como instalar esta porra toda,, um dia que tenha a minha TODO list diminuta, farei o respectivo CF. http://include.homeunix.net/raw/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=38&blogId=1 Abra?os grandes include o SysAdmin da noite... http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=viana.pm.org&probe=1 PS: j? esquecia,, foi necess?rio recompilar o reverse proxy para deixar passar pedidos msdav ;) -- It is more rational to sacrifice one life than six. -- Spock, "The Galileo Seven", stardate 2822.3 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
