Tell me you're not dual-booting a server, are ya? Ick! :) About a year ago, probably more, there was a lot of motion towards making a machine boot in several seconds. But unless you're a laptop person with power problems, etc, why would you need to? The other night a friend of my daughter had a friend over. When it got late, I was following an NIS curiosity when I got a shutdown notice. I hadn't heard anything from my daughter, but I got out. Turns out, the friend figured she was going to bed, so she did a shutdown from GDM and that turned off the power. I was shocked; she didn't know how to login, but she knew how to shutdown. The funny part was that she didn't live in a world where you just let'em run...they get turned off every time they get up, in their world. Guess I've been in Linux a really long time, now. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Brian Fahrländer Christian, Conservative, and Technomad Evansville, IN http://www.fahrlander.net ICQ 5119262 AIM: WheelDweller ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I believe the configuration file's in /usr/src/linux-version/configs/ are the ones that are used to compile the kernels in the first place, so if one was to recompile the kernel using one of those files they should have exactly the same kernel as the one that they get when installing the kernel RPM. > rday > > p.s. the 2.6 kernel comes with a config option to bury the config > file inside the actual kernel itself. IIRC, to get at that file, > you'd use a utility called extract-ikconfig. This option has to be enabled and currently is not, it is disabled by default due to the added size imposed when using it. Kernel .config support (IKCONFIG) This option enables the complete Linux kernel ".config" file contents, information on compiler used to build the kernel, kernel running when this kernel was built and kernel version from Makefile to be saved in the kernel. It provides documentation of which kernel options are used in a running kernel or in an on-disk kernel. This information can be extracted from the kernel image file with the script scripts/extract-ikconfig and used as input to rebuild the current kernel or to build another kernel. It can also be extracted from a running kernel by reading /proc/config.gz and /proc/config_built_with, if enabled (below). /proc/config.gz will list the configuration that was used to build the kernel and /proc/config_built_with will list information on the compiler and host machine that was used to build the kernel. And Enable access to .config through /proc/config.gz (IKCONFIG_PROC) This option enables access to kernel configuration file and build information through /proc/config.gz. These options are under "General setup" when doing an make xconfig Hope this helps -- Douglas Furlong Systems Administrator Firebox.com T: 0870 420 4475 F: 0870 220 2178 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

That's insane. The main power consumption on any computer is the monitor and the drives. Switch off the monitor and the amount consumed is as near as dammit blow all! I worked it out once. To keep the 5 machines in my house running it would take me about an hour of watching the TV to use the same amount of power and how many folks leave the TV on and not be in the room with it?

A monitor uses approximately 100-150W of power. An idle computer with a couple of drives running, uses 40-60W. A 28" TV uses 100-150W or so, so I doubt your values.

You know, you don't *have* to run kudzu as a service in the first place, especially if your hardware is fairly "static" (you don't plug or unplug things much). Just run kudzu as root the few times when you do add anything. Kudzu tends to take a fair bit of time in startup, and disabling it is a very easy way to reclaim that time.

I suspect you have a low-power computer by today's standards. They may not use the 250 W or 400 W indicated by the power supply (a number that is both "theoretical" in that it can only be obtained under certain circumstances, and fictional in that they're usually built to price, not build quality, and the manufacturers know they're unlikely to be found out), but thopse figures aren't always that far out. A modern Pentium 4 CPU, on its own, will often take more than your 60 W, and the PSUs are rarely that efficient. And of course, there are drives, up to four or five fans, and the rest of the PC to consider. All this only serves to illustrate your real point, of course: modern PCs are not normally low-power devices.

It is, of course, possible to relay based on SMTP AUTH via an MTA running as an MSA (message *submission* agent) on port 587, as detailed in RFC 2476. This has the advantage that your relaying is seperated from your normal send and receive MTA. It means you can firewall the MSA how you like (so you can have your IP database implemented through iptables), and run much more restrictive policies. You can still use localhost as your smarthost, so outgoing authenticated e-mails go through the same MTA. James. -- E-mail address: james@ | I learnt the rules of rugby.
