by Dilip M 28 Apr '04

28 Apr '04

Hi, Hey how could i make a bootnet.img for redhat 9 ?? there is no "bootnet.img" at images dir !! I tried from preparing the bootnet.img of redhat 8 , but it failed saying that "The Second stage of install which you have selected does not match the boot disk your using..." I prepared the 'bootnet.img' from redhat-8 CD like this: # dd if=/mnt/cdrom/images/bootnet.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k count=1 I believe this is correct !! -Dilip -- Sorry for my engalish....it not my mother tongue ;) -----------

Fellas, Do feel free to list out wht you think would be a good agenda from your perspective for the trip.

Do pour in your own suggestions please.

conenction pooling and session optimisation FLOSS apps
by Trevor Warren 28 Apr '04

28 Apr '04

Fellas, Was working with some close source tools and just got struck by the idea for a "Generic Connection Pooling and Session Optimisation" applications which are gpl'ed. This product in question is knows to work for *any* tcp/udp based session across routers and will optimise link usage. Any options that FLOSS offers or...need we write one???.

what should i use to index my docs/site???
by Trevor Warren 28 Apr '04

28 Apr '04

Afternoon all, I am in need of an engine to index my whole site and about >2GB of docs(PDF/HTML/DOC/XLS...etc). Have tried htdig/asearch which both take the machine down and just can't scale to the size of file-store to be indexed. Would appreciate some pointers. Thanks in advance.

by Trevor Warren 27 Apr '04

Afternoon Fellas, The numbers as you can see from the website are absymally low. At this rate it may not make sense to get things work. Even the economics may not work out. On a list as huge as the GLUG-BOM i *hoped* to see better support. All those who can spare a day please enlist at the event website. >> http://www.ebackend.com/glug.html Trevor ===== ( >- -< ) /~\ __ Scaling FLOSS in the __ /~\ | \) / Enterprise : trevor.w(a)pvision.biz \ (/ | |_|_ \ Call Now: 9820349221 / _|_| \____________________________________/ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
