After looking at various vms on several ESX hosts I notice that the CPU wait counter is always hovering around the 95-100% mark. Is this normal? I can't seem to find many good resources regarding this counter.
Thanks in advance.
Hi, i would like to install a good distro on a VIA C3 Samuel system.
It would be a light server (with a graphical environment) useful for print server, file server etc.
I've tried to install crunchbang linux but it tell me that my processor not support cx8 and cmov instructions.
So i'm trying Knoppix.. but i still have some problem ...
Do you know other good lightweight distro debian derivates that support via c3 processor ?
Thanks
This UPS is connected via a serial cable to a server. I am trying to get the temperature readings off of the sensor that is connected to the UPS and get them in PRTG. We were able to do this in the past and then when we changed the server out, we lost the settings. Does anyone have any info that might help? Thanks!!
We are running two physical servers both Windows 2003, not virtualized. What is the best free (if any) windows software to take a full image backup of the entire drives? If possible, while the image is taking place, it should not bring the hosts to their knees with excess CPU or I/O usage.
The servers have RAID mirroring, but after hearing a few horror stories about hacked systems, we need to have weekly full image backups, so we can simply revert to a pre-hacked image.
Thanks.

Hi,

very basic selection.
Do i have to manually point VirtualDub to the codecs somehow?
Thanks.
Hi,
I'm looking for a program to create and store custom reports. What I want to be able to do is build a report by adding fields for end users to fill out and then have the program create the appropriate database (or update the appropriate database table rows). So, just a simple report that can be created entirely by an end user from the front end.
Thanks in advance
I'm using Wireshark to time tag and get some statistics on multicast traffic. When there is not much traffic, the stats looks good, but as soon as there is a bunch of packets arriving at the same time, I have stats that are not even possible (e.g. round trip time of 0ms)
I'm wondering if Netmon could be more precise in time tagging packet because it is not relying on the Winpcap driver?
Does anybody already faced the same situation?
Thanks a lot,
Nic

I am trying to understand the benefits of BSMTP, but must admit I do not quite understand the concept of it.
What are the main differences between BSMTP and simply forwarding an MX-record?
What is the difference between BSMTP and having a fallback MX?
Are there any downsides to using BSMTP?
Hopefully you can clear this up for me. Thanks in advance!

I am nstalling drivers for a printer, and I have a choice of either PCL (5 or 6), or PostScript drivers? Which one would you recommend and why?
The printer is HP LaserJet 2605dn, the OS is Windows 7 (x64).
Do you have a rule of thumb for this sort of thing? Or is it pretty much 'see-what-works'?
Thanks
I bought an iPhone in China, where it is manufactured without Wifi. (I would have to switch carriers to sign up for a data plan as my current Chinese carrier doesn't support surfing either... if possible I want to avoid getting yet another card though.) Can I somehow surf with the iPhone Safari while USB-connected to my net-enabled laptop? Thanks!
I have a Ubuntu Server.
From the terminal, how should I install JDK?
In this guide it says to use this command:
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk
But on Suns website, it says JDK includes the JRE, so why the JRE in the line above?
Anybody know how to actually install Java?
Every guide and every forum shows different ways of doing it.
BTW: It is a VPS (virtual private server)
Thanks
I recently upgraded to karmic, and clicked to keep my old menu.lst (to keep my windows XP boot info)... but now I'm not using the right kernel. Is there a way to have it give me the correct up to date menu.lst file again which I can manually merge into my old file?
Thanks,
Dan

Hi,
We received the education credit (valid for 1 year) from Amazon to use, and just wondering if we can buy reserved instance (3years) using that credit?
Is there any way to reserve how much bandwidth we can use too ?

I have a client requirement to encrypt all outgoing email from a linux server. This can be done using any software, sendmail/postfix etc. They have given me the key they want to use, and want all forms (using php) to be encrpyted. Can I set sendmail/etc to encrypt all emails? This could be done with the same key for all mail.
Thanks
