Software Piracy
by David Njuguna 04 Sep '10

04 Sep '10

Hi, I was talking to a certain manager at an NGO who told me that he gets his software from a friend. The software is Windows 7 and when I asked if he gets licensed copies of the same he says his friend gives him the license +software for free. (don't laugh) I am wondering where does the law stand in this case, is the manager innocent due to his ignorance? David

HA 2 Box Setup
by Jangita 03 Sep '10

03 Sep '10

Hi List, I want a scenario where I have two servers that appear as one server (one IP) to the outside world, with both servers having *exactly* the same data and services. So in case one server falls into a pond somehow, I woun't even loose a ping from my clients. Any help or pointers as to where I can start digging for information? the web speaks about pacemaker, heartbeat, drbd, some even talk about xen with remus, again a flood of information, confusing at best. I want a simple clean solution that works great with debian. I'd prefer a bare metal approach with services/systems running to make sure my setup is always available but transparent to the various client services connecting to it, and also transparent to the services running inside the box(es). Each box will hold its on copy of RAIDed data Thanks, -- Jangita | +256 76 91 8383 | Y! & MSN: jangita(a)yahoo.com Skype: jangita | GTalk: jangita.nyagudi(a)gmail.com
