Re: Backup from hda to hda with rsync?

I have an idea but you'll have to give me a few weeks to reply. I only have one hand to type atm (got out of surgery today) and it's too much to type with one hand my response. There is a way using cron, find, and other standard unix tools.

Re: Orphaned, empty folders do not get deleted on fsck

I ran an fsck but that didn't remove. Here's a bash log to illustrate what I mean. I'm not sure what eve...

Re: Many, but somewhat simple new install questions

Second; I am going to do a complete re-install on my desktop of Fedora 14 and Amahi, (and wipe out the test run). So, I am kind of new to Linux and when ever I do installs I guess at the "mount points", What would be the best mount points to choose for my 2 500gig hard drives? I am assumi...

Re: accessing apps over vpn

What browser are you using? If it's Chrome use Firefox. I have the same trouble with Chrome.

It doesn't resolve the DNS correctly because it thinks you want to search google with a word.

the point is..

Not everyone is a Linux guru. Normal people would look at a terminal and panic. The whole point behind the install code is to configure your system based on settings you choose during the setup process. If for instance you want your network to be 192.168.1.x then you get an install code. If you want...

Battle of data transfers!

Gigabit ethernet RAID 5 array of 3 disks server side. 256GB SSD (Crucial C300) client side. For read copy a large file off of your SMB share and look at the dat...
