applet clock ext hdd

Looking for a nice digital clock, can be time and date or just time; to reside in the panel. Don't see that 'time and date' that come with ubuntu make anything readable on a glance. Also looked at wmtime and aclock. Not impressed; any suggestions? Looking to get a new ext hdd for backup.

I can't help with the clock; I just adjust the settings on the default clock applet and it displays how I like... For an EXT hard drive for backup, there are a couple of options: 1) low-cost USB drive from the likes of Western Digital, Seagate, or similar. a) Cheap ($100/TB or less). b) Slow

2011-07-16 Thread Lisa Kachold
There are alot of password files and dictionary lists on various sites. Backtrack5 contains a good number. But I imagine that it's either not allowing root via ssh or you have the wrong username. Or it's a truely random string. On Fri, Jul 15, 2011 at 10:33 PM, Mark Phillips

If you're looking for something along that nature (separated daily directories, but using rsync and keeping redundant disk usage to a minimum), a good choice is a scripted package called Rsync Vault Manager. (http://freshmeat.net/search?q=rsync+vault+managersubmit=Search) It uses rsync as it's

rsync will treat each dir as a separate backup; you'll want to rotate to new directories only when you want to move to a new backup (e.g. each month or so). The filesystem on the destination does not have to match the filesystem on the source (so it's OK to have ext3 on your homedir and back
