Re: [Ilugc] How to make apache to server tons of requests ?

One of the solution is to use a load balancer if you want to handle very high traffic. Load balancer typically has an option to offload SSL (for https) so that it can handle SSL encryption/decryption using dedicated hardware chip and at wirespeed. LB will act like a reverse proxy. With sufficient servers on the backend and using a load balancer in the front, it can easily handle million request/second. -- mks -- ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
Re: [Ilugc] [OT] Best first language

In my opinion, python is a decent, good first choice to introduce to children (very basic python is enough considering her age).

Re: [Ilugc] Tools for simulating network issues
Usually for a quick testing, I use FreeBSD-based live CD Frenzy as a VM (create a VM and assign the ISO image of the CD and boot directly from it with out installing anything) and use ipfw to simulate bandwidth, latency and packet loss. http://frenzy.org.ua/eng/ -- mks -- ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
Re: [Ilugc] [OT] wikipedia: partial blackout ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:SOPA_initiative/Learn_more Is it still possible to access Wikipedia in any way? The Wikipedia community, as part of their request to the Wikimedia Foundation to carry out this protest, asked us to ensure that we make English Wikipedia accessible in some way during an emergency. The English Wikipedia will be accessible on mobile devices and smart phones. You can also view Wikipedia normally by completely disabling JavaScript in your browser, as explained on this Technical FAQ page. -- mks -- On Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 4:36 PM, 0 0...@0throot.com wrote: I don't get it, why did wikipedia decide to do a partial blackout ?

[Ilugc] kcron is missing
Hi, I am using Fedora 11. kcron documentation says, it is a part of kdeadmin package. After doing yum install kdeadmin, the installation went successfully. But I don't see kcron installed. If I run kcron on the command prompt as root, it says command not found error. Does anyone know a solution for this? -- mks -- ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with unsubscribe password address in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
