Re: [Hampshire] HantsLUG equipment

Thanks Ashwin, I'll be bringing the kit anyway, probably worth a quick look. Thinking about it a bit more, IIRC the floor port has (finally) been disabled so we are probably looking at trying to figure out a way to plug the firewall into the wireless network instead of the wired one for the kit

[Hampshire] LVM problems

Hi Everyone, I've got a system with a USB drive connected as /dev/sda, with a single partition at /dev/sda1. I've set up /dev/sda1 as an LVM Physical Volume, and added it to a volume group (/dev/vg0) with no other PVs. I've then created 3 Logical Volumes, /dev/vg0/home /dev/vg0/usr and /dev/vg0/

Hello All, I just heard from the department sysadmins that they are insanely busy dealing with the hundreds of new students who have descended on the university this week to begin their courses. The addition of MAC addresses is therefore a lower priority and there is a small chance that it m

Hello All, I decided to squeeze in a second call for MAC addresses for the meet on Saturday :) I will be sending the list to the sysadmins in about 2-3 hours, so in case anyone wants to add their MACs to the list, there is still some more time. Thanks! Ashwin On 29/09/2010 09:21, Ashwi
