Another rant on the complication of seemingly mundane processes ;)

Just when you thought you were rid of that damned paperclip ;)

A cool collection of Google logos over the years

Interesting but, hopefully, old Linux fun animation :)

Very basic intro to cfengine. If you stick your toe in this pool, you may stub it ;)

One of these days I'm going to learn to think a day in advance ;)

Enjoy the slogans. T's not published under the GPL ;)

Almost back to trying to get back on a normal sleep schedule :)

Laugh until you, ultimately, cry ;)

If only the machines could fix themselves and everyone knew how to use Linux... oh, yeah. I'd be out of a job ;)

Man, is this week a-killin' me. Enjoy the photos and funnies.

Featured guest poster - a depressed Henny Youngman: Take my life. Please. :) Yesterday we took a look at the basics of using Veritas/Symantec NetBackup to add a new TLD and drives to your existing machine. Today, we're going to go just one step beyond and assume a fairly commonplace situation, which has somehow, inexplicably arisen from THE SITUATION we found ourselves in yesterday

And then, sometimes, it rains... I think today's post's title represents the first time I've ever so blatantly hyphenated part of an awkward sentence in order to make it seem intelligible (and not so incredibly long). As I read it now, I wonder what I was thinking.

Everyone has an opinion on this one. Why do so many people care?

A mixed bag of jokes today. Both hilarious... unless you don't like them ;)

This online comic's been going since at least 1998!

Posts like this are the reason we try to write everything in advance ;) This post (especially, stuck in the middle of this week) will serve as a reminder to all of us here that not writing stuff before-hand can make the lean times difficult. We're like a bunch of chipmunks with no winter stash ;) Freezing. Cold. Alone. Just waiting for death, which is inevitable since we're starving, it's freezing out and our stomach's won't let us sleep!

We used a Sun server for this test, but this will work on any Linux or Unix server out there... probably.

Finally, all of our post's code attachment are properly formatted! Today's post is going to be a bit short, by which I mean that it's not going to be long. Of course, it also won't be short in the sense that it won't be abrupt and rude.

Checking out the C stat() function and using it to interrogate files. Today's post loosely ties back to our post last week on Perl stat() basics for Linux and Unix, although this post is not a continuation of that one. Just trying to keep it confusing ;)
