Hey guys/gals,

I have a Fedora 19 box with a 26TB RAID set mounted as my home directory

I have a really old distro (FC7) that I am trying to make compatible with some new hardware (ie. new RAID drivers)...

I put the RAID driver into the ISO so that the installer can detect the RAID...

Awesome! Thanks!
Worked like a charm

I just ran an application that crashed... but before it did, it managed to set readline echo off, and probably a bunch of other settings.

Is there any way I can just tell my shell to...

Sorry for making this post so generic.

I'm trying to see if there are tools that exist that look at local network/system configurations and find problems... for example:

Here is a little BASH trick to avoid these problems...

If you answer the following question for me, I am pretty sure you will find at least the semaphore issue yourself:

What happens to the "full" semaphore when you find a file, and the file size is...

What are you referring to as the default?
Running Kernel 2.6.8 to 2.6.18 the "default" appears to be BIC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_congestion_avoidance_algorithm#TCP_BIC):


In 2.6.19,...

I was looking at differnt types of TCP Congestion Avoidance algorithms (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_congestion_avoidance_algorithm) and realized that they are almost all tailored toward "high...

I have seen a lot of IPv4/IPv6 address manipulation libraries (http://code.google.com/p/ipaddr-py/) but I have yet to see a library allowing you to manipulate the interfaces/addresses/routes.

Well I guess I deserve that... my bad for not being clear :p

Back to the first question though, I would think that somebody would have a HTTP server validation tool/test-suite, no? I am imagining...

Anybody know of a suite of server-validation tests? I am trying to build my own HTTP server, but do not know of all the status code responses (like "200 OK") or the internal methods (like...

Believe it or not, you have helped me significantly.

I admit my udev rules relied heavily on a "USB-Storage" partition existing:
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd*[0-9]", DRIVERS=="usb-storage", ...

I have been trying to get USB storage devices to auto-mount themselves under "/media/usb/<dev>" but have been running into some problems with udev (on FC7, btw... running udevd v.106)

Every time I...

Ideally I want to import/correlate logs between several different clients/servers, which many things like Google BigQuery (http://code.google.com/apis/bigquery/), & Splunk (http://www.splunk.com/)...

Does anybody know of something like this?

If you read up on the Python Data Model (http://docs.python.org/reference/datamodel.html), you will see that numbers (actually all numerics) are implemented as an immutable (aka. not-changeable)...

Am I missing something, or does RFC 3549 (http://tools.ietf.org/search/rfc3549#section-2.3.2) suggest that the NLM_F_REPLACE flag should apply to any netlink message header? In other words,...

Short answer: this is perfectly normal. What happened was that an IP address was added to the interface without a differentiating label.

Believe it or not, the "ifconfig" application is strongly...

Nope. I just happened to be helping somebody debug a seg-fault in their code caused by pointer-arithmetic error & we ended up in this "philosophical discussion".

His point was to suggest that if a...
