Not exactly. You set up thin (or diskless) clients to boot from PXE the kernel and modules. Then you mount system root for these clients via likes of NFS or GlusterFS, giving you a shared file space; but all hardware units are now running their own instances. Separately, you can set up NFS root...

What you're talking about is "Direct GPU Access Over Network". I've never played with it, but two approaches seem to exist: NVIDIA GPUDirect and GPU passthrough. This seems like a comprehensive how-to.

....Aaand a new embargoed vulnerability: https://skyfallattack.com/ Not much info there, just a clue The *BDS's will probably be kept in the dark, again!

I use www/nginx with WebDAV module. Allows me to transfer not just from/to Android devices but any device connected to LAN.

One of the differences between those devices, mobile phones and other small units vs a "normal computer" is the concept of System On Chip (SOC) and Flash ROM. Flash ROMs are usually very limited in storage size and the whole design is what makes such devices both cheap and low power consumers...

When using NAT, WAN is usually a better choice then LAN. The objective is to minimize traffic ie, you don't want packets bouncing around from interface to interface when trying to get to destination. Yes this is the better way. With a subnet, jails are only reachable through OS NAT. Where you...

Have any of you tried setting up ZFS on Linux lately? The particular steps depend on the specific distro family, but entails re-packaging the initrd.img file. That in its self is not so bad, but I found the systemd enabled RHEL/Fedora class to require an extra layer named Dracut (defined as...

Nope, was not aware of that. Thanks.

<what would be a viable alternative to cassandra?> It really depends on what type of data is being stored and what you're trying to do with that data (query time). There are a bunch of very nice alternatives to Cassandra, most of them already in the ports tree. I would suggest that you break...

I've used Gigabyte before and completely hated it. I currently have an Asus and it has never caused me any problems. However, I built my own system from components and that's just my experience.

I just recently moved back to NYC after decades of living overseas. If there are any Forum members in the NYC area having regular gatherings or who are up for grabbing a beer please PM me and let's shoot the breeze.

Unfortunate that this happened, as what you most likely now have is a "Soft Bricked" device. If that's what happened, recovery is an absolute PIA. Soft Brick recovery has two methods: Serial Console or JTAG. Serial Console is a bit easier IMHO. First you need a TTL 3.3 or 5 Volt cable, depending...

So simple yet eluded me :) Thanks.

Try below and see where it gets you, because I don't think you have to port it. Usually web-based apps can be directly pulled into an http server without any OS related adjustments. This should be quicker than waiting for someone to port the thing. git clone git -C <path>...

Thanks for the answer I thought AES would suffice, but hesitated because of the Handbook entry. I don't need dumpdev/savecore, but your explanation clarifies the use of -d flag My last question was about checking geli properties once geli layer was started, for confirmation of what parameters...

I just placed an fstab entry as below, after doing a dd wipe on swap partition and seems to work, defaults to AES AFAIK. /dev/ada0p1.eli none swap sw,keylen=256,sectorsize=4096 0 0 The handbook states use of geli onetime -d -e 3des ada0p1 * Is 3DES more appropriate than AES for swap? * Do I...

Hello. I hope someone has solved this problem before. I'm trying to setup an imap/smtp proxy for a small LAN, where most of the devices on the LAN are Android/Apple mobiles. The sole purpose of the proxy is so ClamAv jail can scan in-flight e-mail traffic & drop if positive. Solution...

I would have imagined that certain Linux distros would already have the f keymap lying around somewhere in their source repos, and especially Pardus?

Hi, I read your post too quickly and overlooked the details. First off, syscons is the old console, vt(4) (newcons) is the new one. You can switch to vt by setting in /boot/loader.conf kern.vty=vt That said, the kbd files are just text. See for yourself: $ cat /usr/share/vt/keymaps/tr.kbd #...
