This means that we will have to find and contact the administrators of that domain / DNS servers. As far as the distributed web site goes I think it is a good idea. To pull off the distributed site we would need to have the DNS records resolve to multiple boxen across the net. I have considered a self replicating set up for some of my servers and at present I'm looking at using Coda or AFS as a replicating / caching local copies of the remote file system content. I've never dealt with Wikis other than and end user (and I say that the ones that I've looked at have been slow) so I don't know what they take to set up. I suspect that they use a database and thus we would want to set up the Wiki to use a database that has real time replication between the two (or more) web servers that the wiki points to. I would be more than happy to help with such an endeavor. I can not host it at my office (bosses will not let me) but I can help provide content and / or convert stuff. > It would also be good if at least one site offered > multiple ways to connect - eg: via an IPSec tunnel or > via IPv6 - as this would give people a simple way of > testing what they're trying. Again I am not able to do this, but I think it could be relatively easily done by offering a host with multiple IPs bound to it and give people a UML that they can test things in. Much of the routing / firewalling work that I have done can easily be done in side of a UML. This would mean that a system would need to be fairly capable and running a UML it's self to be a router in to the UML farm / UML switch backplane. Again I would be more than willing to help set up such a system (and enjoy it at that). I think it would be interesting to do this with multiple distributions and possibly versions there of. To pull this off the box would need to be fairly powerful though to support many people at one time. I'd say that you could get away with a dual multi GHz proc box with at least 2 - 4 GB of RAM. I would expect that this could support 10+ concurrent users in side of UML doing some compiling or more if they are just using recompiled binaries.

I don't have one here, but I vaguely remember they use a different kernel module (8139too vs. via-rhine) so I think it's a different chipset.

Some of the DFE-5..TX cards are indeed tulip based and have very good performance for a reasonable price. Unfortunately sources on the net disagree which cards have which chipset, so I recommend looking at them (I bought a new tulip based card here in Germany for 7 Euros). It pays to request a look at the chipsets of the cheaper cards, they might not even advertise their chipsets as tulip.

Yes, a way to test certain setups would be cool, but you have to be aware that there might be security bugs in the services you offer. Your risk would be higher than for usual setups because people might also be able to use post-authentication bugs. A person setting up such a test system should also be aware that people might use more bandwidth than anticipated.

That makes alien abduction and slashdotting really unlikely. Using multiple sites is always a problem because invariably people will lose interest, sites will get out of sync, the question which site should be linked from external sites and all of the sites stealing google ranking from each other. If people feel comfortable with SUSE hosting such a wiki, I could ask them.

If the owner just doesn't have the time to maintain the Howto anymore, it would be best to put the wiki directly there, since that can be self-maintained by the users then. So I suggest we at least try to contact the original maintainer / domain owner before putting a Wiki just anywhere. If that's not possible, I think I'd prefer one central, but reliable long-term host over a distributed solution.

RE: [LARTC] Hardware Configuration Ideas
Thank you all for your help! The reason why I asked for your help was because I had the following problem: Router: 1.4 GHZ AMD 256 RAM Realtek 8139 NIC Slackware 2.6 kernel No iptables rules just iproute2 routing. I have 2 sub-networks and the router is configured as a "router on a stick". I tested a simple routing from one sub-network to another (FTP transfer) (the traffic enters and leaves the router using the same NIC) and the maximum transfer rate is 50 Mbit (instead of 100 Mbit as expected). I wonder how am I able to route a Gigabit network ... Someone told me that he solved the problem using FreeBSD as it has a better performance on this field... I am bound to Linux as it has a superb implementation of QoS. You have nothing like this in BSD. I want to ask you: what is the maximum transfer rate that you can obtain on your configurations (with and without heavy firewalling / marking / tc). Thanks again for your input!

I am not that among the siblings, the excess bandwidth is shared on basis of priority ie . 1:3 will get a higher share than 1:4.
