by pithon kamau 21 May '10

21 May '10

i tried explaining in the best layman terms possible to a client dealing with borehole drilling - Rented Water Tank = web-server that hosts your website, - Water company = hosting company where your web-server resides, - Water = files, data, images, etc. that comprise your website, - Pipe = the internet, - Quantity of water delivered = bandwidth consumption, - You = patron / visitor of your website which is hosted on aforementioned web-server. save this analogy, it might help you sometyme :) -- Pithon K.

Logwatch configuration
by Simon Mbuthia 21 May '10

21 May '10

Hi guys, More problems here. I have edited the alias file and assigned an email address to root, ran newaliases, but still logwatch is sending emails to report(a)localhost.localdomain - where localhost.localdomain is the FQDN of the box. I have not specified such an address anywhere. I have also set the SMART_HOST on sendmail.mc to my mail server [and it's working OK] and ran make -C /etc/mail and restarted the sendmail service [yes, I'm running sendmail as my default MTA]. What am I not doing right? Me.

why have voter's card and ID card?

@Odhiambo WASHINGTON et al We are going the chip way one way or the other! He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, freeman and slave, to receive a mark on (or in*) his right hand or on (or in*) his forehead, so that no-one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom, if anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a person and it's number is 666."

In the Mix
by Mbugua Njihia 21 May '10

Kiania.. Sembuse was shot down at safcom coz it "will cannibalize sms revenues"..their gravy train Kiania sez " For all the flack Safcom gets on this list we have to give them marks for innovation and forethought. In today's newspaper they have launched Mixit (http://www.mxitlifestyle.com/) is a Peer-to-Peer IM client that runs on mobile-to-mobile and desktop-to-mobile. While some see this as cannibalizing SMS revenues, it's a stroke of genius because they still stand to make cash from the data traffic as opposed to loosing it to a competitor all together. (Rule No. 4 in business: Cannibalize your revenue and business model before your competition does it for you) After declining to support Mixit as a product, MTN SA now looses more than 8M Rand (KES 80M) a day, and the sad part, the app runs on their platform on either gprs/edge.
