Re: backup system for servers

You can even use Perl or PHP, both of which support being daemonized so you can do incremental backups or backups of specific files based on changes. I usually prefer the Perl method, but sometimes am forced to use PHP and when clients flat out refuse to let me daemonize I tell them to do it themselves since it's not my problem anyways I was just being nice and send them an SH script that does exactly what I described. Personally I pipe tar over ssh so I'm not dependent on enough disk space on the machine being backed-up to create a local archive. Plus, it's only one command that way. Mike I prefer it too but my clients need verbose lists of files that were backed up in certain places and we grep that out for their automatic emails. In case the OP wants to know what we're on about, and so we don't stray to far off topic here is an example of piping tar to SSH: tar cvpjf server_backup.tar.bz2 --same-owner \ --exclude=/proc/* \ --exclude=/media/* \ --exclude=/dev/* \ --exclude=/mnt/* \ --exclude=/sys/* \ --exclude=/tmp/* \ --exclude=/usr/tmp/* \ --exclude=/lost+found/* \ --exclude=/server_backup.tar.bz2 | ssh client_opera...@backup.domain.com dd of=server_backup.tar.bz2 Also, to make things more secure, and so you can give clients access to their own shares, if this is the case, you can easily Chroot SSH to their client share. And just give them the SSH certificate (which they'll easily be able to get anyways if they're not dumb so it's better you go ahead and Chroot ahead of time) so they can pull down their own backups. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

But there hasn't been an upgrade in a while, at least I don't remember one messing up my video setup. But that is good to know, thanks! Do you run gnome or KDE? just curious, in squeeze is KDE changed to KDE4 ? my wife still runs KDE3 and it would be a real shock for her to have to switch to KDE4.. I run gnome myself. I run KDE, and am quite happy with KDE4 (at version 4.4 now). Yet, opinions differ, so your wife has to find out if KDE4 suits her or not. Of course, staying with Lenny for KDE3 is only a short term solution. In the long run, you'll either have to accept KDE4 or use the fork of KDE 3.5 at http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/.

On the flip, I've been happy with Eraser: http://eraser.heidi.ie/ Good luck. Anything, and I repeat anything, is recoverable, even if you remove the filesystem you can recover pieces of the file. You can remove remnants of the file using over write methods but you need to make sure they properly implement the algorithm and do your own research on the algorithms to make sure they were designed or were updated for modern hard drives. EXP: Gutmann method was designed for older HD's and will not work on newer HD's most of the time (depending on who implements it). Now, removing remnants of the file doesn't make it unrecoverable (in all circumstances), you might be able to still do a very low level recovery, something they would generally reserve for say, a RICO investigation, terrorists an those sorts. The only way to stop any and all data leaks, recoveries or anything of the sort is to either Degauss, Destroy or use Encryption on the drive from the get go and to be honest, the only proper implementation of drive encryption (beyond the actual encryption) would be RedHat (and this is only because they offer the ability to span encryption across multiple drives and recommend it) and no drive encryption (beyond truecrypt) offers deniability. Something I've brought up on both Debian and Ubuntu and even to Redhat. As a matter of fact, Ubuntu developers fought with me over the idea telling me that only criminals could possibly want plausible deniability, but Ubuntu is rather closed minded most of the time when it comes to this sort of thing. -- Cheers, Jordon Bedwell http://envygeeks.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

You may even find that you throw away most of what this extension does (I don't personally know it well) because Radiant used to handle it's own caching with ResponseCache but it now basically hands off the heavy work to Rack::Cache (via Radiant::Cache) Start digging into Radiant::Cache and follow it into Rack::Cache (bundled with the Radiant source) and at first glance you may want to look at Rack::Cache::EntityStore::Disk write method Thanks.

If you are worried about them pressing the back button then use window.onLoad because it waits till everything is done loading, not till the DOM content is ready to be manipulated. It shouldn't hurt anything if they press the back button, unless it's an auto-load Ajax, and if that is the case, you can use some tricks that JQuery has built into it. -Original Message- From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:jquery...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Dragon-Fly999 Sent: Thursday, May 07, 2009 7:20 AM To: jQuery (English) Subject: [jQuery] Document ready function and the browser forward/back button Hi, I have a few document ready functions on my page.

It seemed all of you were working with straight code and expected ME to understand what to do with this handful of files in the zip file. The confusion was totally caused by the fact that Joomla rejected the module and wouldn't install it. I tried a zillion other menus on Joomla and they didn't work too great either, because there are so many conflicts with mootools and javascript. Finally I downloaded Superfish again, this time I downloaded a different file (you have TWO available) and the other module installed properly and was easy to use. This was after an entire day of trouble, all of which was caused by the file which didn't and wouldn't install. Which is not your fault, but it WAS your file that caused this helluva day. So I don't know how to repeal the bad review but at the time I wrote it I didn't think your product had an adequate description. There was no explanation on what to do with the zip file.

[jQuery] Re: [autocomplete] Search Page Replacement
this is one of two counter-intuitive keyboard behaviors i'm aware of. the other is tab, which most users would expect to get them to the next form element. I'm still scratching my head at how this is counter-intuitive? If you called it that, you must not understand the entire scope of tab, and the fact that it has no scope, it loops through the entire frame of the browser, including the address bar and links. With JavaScript you can prevent it from looping through links and the address bar by defining where it goes and what it does. YES, if it did infact stay within forms if you select a form element it would be counter-intuitive, but at this point, it is far from that based on logic. There are also more reasons to redine the default behaviour of tab.
[jQuery] Re: [autocomplete] Search Page Replacement
I guess I should follow up and elaborate more why it's not counterintuitive: because the common user would expect it not to eventually hit the address bar, but loop through the form elements and keep looping through form elements, not land on some random link at the bottom of the page. Not all computer users understand the Shift+Tab concept.

That's why most people edit plugins because most plugin authors are very obtrusive and don't understand that sometimes we would like to include the libraries ourselves. The best way to do so is to build a plugin called JQuery and buffer the entire page and search for the Script tag that might include JQuery.

[jQuery] Re: Communicating Info from Server to Javascript, Prior to Ajax Calls?
If you use PHP then it's better to have it output the userID as a variable already inside of JavaScript to save the extra code, or to set it as a cookie, as a matter of fact, if you use Expression Engine, WP or most any other major CMS, there is a cookie already set with that info so you can just pull it from there. -Original Message- From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:jquery...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Vik Sent: Sunday, April 19, 2009 3:40 PM To: jQuery (English) Subject: [jQuery] Communicating Info from Server to Javascript, Prior to Ajax Calls? Let's say I want my javascript to know some info, e.g. the username of the user, and I'd like to communicate it prior to any Ajax calls. So far I've been storing the info in a hidden field that jQuery can access via an id. Is this the correct approach? Thanks in advance to all for any info.
[jQuery] Re: Creating an ajax status
$.ajax supports an option called beforeSend so it would be something like: $.ajax({ type:POST, url:some.php, data:name=Johnlocation=Boston, success:function(msg){ alert(Data Saved: +msg); } beforeSend:function() { alert(Sending request to server'); } }); I am assuming you are using $.ajax because you are probably using the same page with either GET or POST. -Original Message- From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:jquery...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Nic Hubbard Sent: Thursday, April 16, 2009 11:31 AM To: jQuery (English) Subject: [jQuery] Creating an ajax status I have a number of GET and POST ajax calls that do various things my script.

[jQuery] Re: jQuery SL - jQuery Silverlight Plugin Feedback
You confuse the Silverlight project completely. It's not just a player. It's really actually truly a server. Kind of like Flash Media Server but way more advanced, they are 10 different leagues apart. Check out http://www.streamflashhd.com/ which is an Adobe/Akamai project demonstrating using Silverlight with Flash. I don't know who in their right mind would even consider using Java for Video. If you are going to do that, you might as well download the HD video to your computer... Silverlight is really a server, it's capabilities include downgrading live streams based on your bandwidth. It's used by some of the biggest companies, and word around is Hulu will soon switch to a Flash/Silverlight setup. Example: If you are at 10MBPS when you first tap the video and then all of a sudden you drop to 1MBPS bandwidth, it will downgrade the video, and upgrade the video if you gain more available bandwidth, creating a constant smooth stream. Flash alone does not have this capability because it is downloading the video just as if you were downloading it yourself. Flash with silverlight though, it gains this ability. -Original Message- From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:jquery...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Thomas Creutz Sent: Saturday, April 11, 2009 3:11 AM To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com Subject: [jQuery] Re: jQuery SL - jQuery Silverlight Plugin Feedback Thomas Creutz schrieb: Jordon Bedwell schrieb: I suggest you check out http://www.smoothhd.com/ before you start dogging Silverlight.

[jQuery] Re: IE8 will not perform Fade animation properly
How exactly are you trying to fade it? A sample of your code would be good to diagnose said error, otherwise we have to assume that you are relying on JQuery to fade and if you are then assume that it's the way you have your span setup with CSS. -Original Message- From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:jquery...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jared A.

This could turn out to be quite a simple job for a web design student. Let me know if anyone out there is interested in this project, and I will provide them with a full brief of the project.

script type=text/javascript $(document).ready(function() { $(div[id^='div_']).click(function() { alert(this.id); }); }); /script Better not to use JQuery for such trivial things as getting the ID attribute since it's already apart of the object.

[jQuery] Re: Is jquery safe ?
No, it's not a trojan. The alert you are probably getting about it is a false positive. The only AV company I have seen this caused by is Comodo because it uses a very advanced heuristics application approach to finding viruses and trojans in the wild preventing them before they are even aware they are there and some newer versions of Norton which has recently started to advance in the area of Advance Heuristics. You can confirm it is not a threat yourself by emailing the file you downloaded that it is reporting to avl...@comodo.com or virus_resea...@avertlabs.com; simply pack the files and email it off. If you plan to email it to Avertlabs then please make sure you password the zip with the password infected (without quotes ofcourse). Avert will do an automatic submission and test it automatically and email you back if no threat is found, if it's engine is wigging out on the threat-o-metre then it will be elevated and take upto a week, but either way, in short, no, JQuery is not a trojan.
