A remote robot in chargeU of e rack of USB sticks? Exactly. It's called a Juke Box. You stick in a quarter, press a letter and number, and an arm grabs the appropriate USB stick and inserts it in the computer's usb slot. The mechanism could be used also to backup on a hard disk. Hard disks are currently the safest backup method, provided they are run periodically, but not continuously; this leads to connect them only for the duration of the backups, and it might be used on remote servers. In this case, better play with the power supply of the disk than insert/extract the usb plug. Didier ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

Or something less far-fetched? ..yeah, like those random people that you're _not_ talking to, because you and they have no idea about each others presence, sticking USB sticks into one of the "pc" like server boxes you're working on... e.g. dmesg -Hw in another ssh session would help if you set up enough system paranoia, and not too much... like when I locked myself out of my isp's bandwidth throttle box... -- ..med vennlig hilsen = with Kind Regards from Arnt Karlsen ...with a number of polar bear hunters in his ancestry...

How are you inserting a USBB stick when the box is far away? A remote robot in chargeU of e rack of USB sticks? Random peope in the mall sticking USB sticks into the kiossk you're taking to?
