I'd like to setup my own NNTP (Network_News_Transfer_Protocol) server for my intranet. What free solutions do exists? Any recommendations? I'd like to have something with a GUI, if possible.
Thanks,
Hey everyone,
Im looking to set up a simple fileserver:
5 - 7 clients - Mixed Windows, Linux, Mac OSX - connecting over wireless and wired
Serving ~200GB content -
Photos, MP3's, ISO's etc
What OS would you recommend for this fileserver? I understand XP limits the number of when connecting to different shares so this probably isnt the best choice.
Any recommendations are appreciated.
Thank you,
When I bought my MBP 2.2 GHZ in 2007, it got from dead to an active dock in about 18 seconds, and now it takes about 1:30 to get a fully responsive home screen.
I want to find a way to profile the various things it does when it starts up so I can begin tuning it a bit.
Any good software or other recommendations for this process?
Hi,
I'm looking to replace Polycenter Newview and Polycenter Console Manager with supported products.
I'm starting with this list.
Do you have any recommendations, either from that list or elsewhere?
I am looking for an iPhone application so I can monitor my 3G/S bandwidth usage. I only have so much allotted per month and I would like to stay within it. Any recommendations?
I am looking for an open source social bookmarking site CMS so I can build a site like delicious with it for my organization. This will be deployed in the internal LAN.
Do you have any recommendations?
I'm looking for a tool that will allow multiple panels to be visible while looking at the local file system, so that I can copy/move files easily between the panels.
I have been using 7-zip, since you can view 2 panels at once, but I feels as if there is something better out there.
What are the top recommendations?

I'm thinking of buying one as a portable video player to entertain my little son when traveling. Does iPad fit my goal? Can I play arbitrary video files? Can I jailbreak it?
If iPad isn't a good fit, do you have other recommendations?
We own/manage a few domains (nothing too large or too trafficked). Currently our DNS servers are hosted onsite. For ease of management and lower-latency DNS requests we are interested in moving our Domains offsite, does anyone have recommendations for a good DNS provider?
I need to bring in someone to train my team with the usage of LDAP.
Any objective recommendations on a company/freelance that gives such a service?

The official recommendation of Ubuntu is to use sudo do-release-upgrade to do an online upgrade from one version to the next. Historically many of my Debianite friends and myself have simply altered apt's sources.list and run apt-get dist-upgrade.
I follow Ubuntu's recommendations, but I've always wondered what the magic difference between these two processes is. What, exactly, does do-release-upgrade do, on say an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10? (Examples from other releases welcome.)
I've seen plenty of recommendations for Linux VPS hosting, but not as much for FreeBSD. Who's the Linode/Slicehost of the BSD world? As an added bonus, who provides cheap but serviceable BSD hosting?
I'm looking for some software for Linux which will allow me to write and take my own quizzes. I want to have a way to test people about their technical knowledge. I'm looking for free software... any recommendations?
I've had some problems with Bluetooth in my Ubuntu 9.10, and ended up by uninstalling everything related.
I would like to know what are the default packages for BTH in Ubuntu, and what are your recommendations (like blueman or thing like this).
I have a high-end cellphone and would like to use everything that's possible, talking about bluetooth, with it (a samsung scrapy touch, or GT-B3410).
Does anyone have some good recommendations for sources of contract sysadmin work (other than personal contacts, who you can rest assured I'm already harrassing ;-)) I'm based in the California Bay Area, but am open to other regions.
We're currently looking at implementing Autonomy IDOL in our environment. Does anyone have any recommendations or gotchas that we should be aware of? Are other companies using IDOL successfully?
I'm curious to get some real-world impressions beyond the case studies we've been provided with.
How can I get an e-mail alert when my oracle database comes up or down?
I have a database that I need to know when it goes down (it would be nice to know if it has come back up), preferably from a remote machine. Conceivably I could hack together something that TNSPings my DB and e-mails me when that changes, but I'm hoping there's a free package out there. Something that would run on windows.
Any strong recommendations?
I am part of a 4 person volunteer team who manage a small housing development in London. We need a low-cost/no-cost contact management and issue tracking system. Specifically, it needs to be:
-Web-based, or easily shared between 4 people working out of their homes
-Easy to backup and restore
-Decently secure
Does anyone have any recommendations? I am reasonably technically literate, so a PHP-based solution running on a cheap hosting package would definitely be a viable option.
Many thanks.
We are going to be setting up two replicas of our DataMart and related databases, and our plan includes using Hyper-V VM's to handle the load. When creating the VM's, we cannot find specific requirements or recommendations for RAM/CPU power for read-only replicas.
Our current Primary DataMart setup has 64GB RAM and Two Quad-Core procs, which so far has been adequate for our usage.
What should be the server setup for replicas and SQL Server to adequately support the read-only usage?
A client wants us to push data files to them on a daily basis using SFTP (ssh over ftp). We are a 100% Microsoft shop with no Linux admins on staff. I am looking for recommendations on how to do achieve this. I have seen different applications for automating the sending of files via SFTP, but I don't know if they are a good approach or not.
What have you found to be the easiest way to deal with this in a Microsoft Environment?
I have a user who has multiple duplicated emails across multiple folders on his IMAP account. How he managed to create them is beyond me, but mine is not to reason why, just to fix it!
Can anyone recommend an application that I may use to remove the duplicates. (we're talking mailboxes in excess of 9G, and it's a remote server)
I don't mind what OS I have to use to clean up the mailbox, I'm just looking for some recommendations.
Thanks
Title says it all. I'm looking for an app for OS X that will tell me what applications are using the network and what their in/out is. I can get most of the way there with LittleSnitch but it's the bandwidth part that it fails at.
The only app I've come across that comes close is "Rubbernet" and while it does look like it would probably do what I want, it's very expensive (more than LittleSnitch) and doesn't look like it gets regular feature updates.
Any recommendations?
I'm looking for recommendations for an easy to use reporting/business intelligence tool that can interface with an sql server or access database. It can be web-based or a desktop tool.
Ideally it would be freeware or low cost, and easy to use for users who are not that technically savvy (below the level of someone who can generate reports and complicated queries in Access).
Any tools I've seen so far (such as Crystal Reports) are either too expensive or too complicated to use for non-power users.
Looking for a host-based IDS comparable to tripwire. Preferably one that allows centralized management. Right now I use tripwire and though it works management and reporting through a central server would be ideal. I'm looking for recommendations that have actually been used and not just google results. Thanks!
