I have no idea what the use of this might be, but it's rather interesting. It even has a working version of vi! Basically, it's a unix shell written in javascript that can be used through a browser. http://www.masswerk.at/jsuix/ Josh

Plus, my webmail (as not allowed to download email on this system, but can check it) only allows top posting. You want to change that ettiquite, change the way email clients (including web) work! > This was never agreed to. I recall a huge debate about it, and it was > never resolved.

Two days may be too long for many of the elderly and infirm. Our power was out for a week. Even people with gas heating often find that their thermostats are electric... We moved in with friends who had power for the week. -- Garrett Goebel IS Development Specialist ScriptPro Direct: 913.403.5261 5828 Reeds Road Main: 913.384.1008 Mission, KS 66202 Fax: 913.384.2180 www.scriptpro.com garrett at scriptpro dot com _______________________________________________ Kclug mailing list Kclug(a)kclug.org http://kclug.org/mailman/listinfo/kclug

RE: Suggestions for interview questions

Q. What is the decimal notation of subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 A. /24 Q. What type of DNS record is associated with email servers a. MX /Mail Exchanger and Reverse DNS (99% will miss Reverse DNS unless they have ran their own mail server) Q. If I build a Ipsec vpn from Site 1 to Site 2 to Site 3, Can I ping a host on site 3 from site 1. A. No. Ipsec creates rules to join networks. Generally you can't route traffic between tunnels. Q. Most managed switchs us a technique called spanning tree. A lot of embedded devices will miss DHCP when because their boot up time is so fast that the port is not alive before the switch determines that you do not have a loop back condition. What is the correct way to solve this. A. In some switches they have a feature called port fast, turn this on ports that have embedded devices. In some middle ground switches you have to disable spanning tree on that port or even the complete switch. That's a few. They might be a bit beyond any junior person but if you want someone that really knows their stuff I would get a bit harder than these. ________________________________ From: kclug-bounces(a)kclug.org [mailto:kclug-bounces@kclug.org] On Behalf Of Garrett Goebel Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2005 8:15 AM To: kclug(a)kclug.org Subject: Suggestions for interview questions What type of networking questions would you suggest to weed out interview candidates during a 15 minute phone conversation?

It is quite possible that we could have a LUG cluster of either of those boards. If members donated money to purchase or several people each purchased a board and donated, with someone donating switches, wire, metal, HDD, CF cards, UPS, like in the article I sent, we could build something tasty. -----Original Message----- From: On Behalf Of Kendrick >>Kelsay, Brian - Kansas City, MO wrote: >>Like this? http://www.mini-itx.com/projects/cluster/ >> >> >> > >yes but using the dual >http://www.idotpc.com/TheStore/Desktop/1005Spec.asp?Product.id=1005&Cat e.id=5&Product.status=green >or a via c7 which is suposed to be near 2ghz and getting more powerful >http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/195/5 >
