    Machine Learning - Education

    I'm working on my bachelor's for applied computer science, and have, with little thought, chose psychology as a minor. I have an interest to work in, or "hobby in," machine learning; I like the thought of setting something up and having it grow. I haven't started work on the minor yet, so...

    20 years of FreeBSD developement in three hours

    It's cool, but there's no way I'm gonna watch that for three hours.

    Computer-Science Prerequisites

    My life is one big curve ball. I recently adopted a new philosophy on life: to change the way I perceive events and how I react to them. It's been going OK. I started working at a place I thought I'd dread, but with a little perspective-magic, I'm pretty happy there. Funny how when I started...

    Computer-Science Prerequisites

    Way more replies on this than I had anticipated. But that's a good thing. It's so in my face with the math math math. I was never that good that math, but ADD could have had a lot to do with that. I haven't tried to pick up any new math skills as an adult. I was pretty much F's in every subject...

    Computer-Science Prerequisites

    I suppose I need to accept that, to some degree, I can't (and no one) knows it all. Yes, I know. Which is why used the word "only". Thanks for taking the time to write all that. I feel like I have an atlas to everything. Something I can get only from someone with the knowledge. Well...

    Computer-Science Prerequisites

    I feel that I need to play "catch-up". And I think I do. I appreciate your input, but I think your focus is more OS based than it is fundamentally about computers. I don't care to know that a transmission is responsible for making a car go 50 MPH at 2,000 RPM, I want to know why it does (I do)...

    Computer-Science Prerequisites

    I never went to college; no one in my family has. I have a fascination with computing (at least I think I do), but the more I learn the more I feel like there are missing pieces of information. I think a formal education would help me to know what I don't know I don't know. Here's the thing: I...

    DNS Issues

    Solved. Well, my bad completely. I misspelled the domain name upon creation. I overlooked one of the simplest things.

    DNS Issues

    One clue that may give an indication to the underlying cause is that I have a few domains on the server's main IP, and both of those are working fine.

    DNS Issues

    I'm using Virtualmin to manage sites on a freeBSD FreeBSD 9.1 box. When I put more than one site on a shared IP, all domains will load only one site. For example: if abc.com and 123.com are both on 1.1.1.1, 123.com will load abc.com. The server is running BIND. Any help is appreciated. This is a...

    MySQL Library-loading Issues

    I got it figured out using ldd. I was missing libmysqlclient.so.15, which is used by an older version of mysql. I got the file from ports and placed it in /usr/local/lib/mysql. I was initially trying to use ldd, but it was just saying that libts3db_mysql.so is missing, but then I tried ldd...

    MySQL Library-loading Issues

    I'm trying to start a TeamSpeak server, but I'm getting error messages: $ sh ts3server_minimal_runscript.sh inifile=ini 2013-09-21 06:35:12.517743|INFO |ServerLibPriv | | TeamSpeak 3 Server 3.0.9 (2013-09-10 09:13:25) 2013-09-21 06:35:12.518034|INFO |ServerLibPriv | |...

    FreeBSD 9 ZFS the easy way

    How frequent of a problem is data corruption? I have never had to deal with it in my 7 years of server adminning. I host simple websites on my servers and a few other server programs here and there. The main reason I went with ZFS was because of the improvements on speed I read about, and, that...

    FreeBSD 9 ZFS the easy way

    Thanks. I see that the issue is data corruption VS drive failure. The RAID 5 I have set up is for drive failure, but this setup may preclude ZFS from preventing data corruption -- which RAID 5 does not. Live and learn, eh? But after reading that bit of info, I feel OK with my current setup.

    FreeBSD 9 ZFS the easy way

    Here's where I'm getting confused: Is it that having it over a RAID is redundant, or, is it that there are going to be undesirable issues?

    FreeBSD 9 ZFS the easy way

    Well, it's not a soft RAID, though. Anyone else ever heard of this?

    Memory Usage

    I just installed FreeBSD on a server a few days ago, have the Webmin panel running and a few ultra-low-traffic Wordpress sites. Over 6 GB of RAM is being used. 16 GB of RAM is installed on the system. Is this normal? I'm sort of thinking that the OS will hold a % of memory rather than a minimum...

    FreeBSD 9 ZFS the easy way

    Thanks for this tutorial. Only thing I had to do differently was use da0 instead of ada0. I'm running a RAID5 using a HP Smart Array card. I was able to find out the device by poking around in /dev with fdisk. It was my second guess at which device was actually the disk, I figured da for "disk...

    Need Help Installing With ZFS

    In these instructions I get lost at: I boot from the install disc and see no "sysinstall" nor "Fixit". This is for FreeBSD 9.1.
