This is where our biggest performance hit comes into play. When we switched
from
NetBSD to Linux our machine came to a screeching halt because I way new to the
ways of PAM, and the pitfalls of pwdb. On our old 200Mhz Pentium, POP
connections
alone were taking more than a second to authenticate (
2987 users. Serving >100 pop connections per minute, plus web, Samba &
Appletalk. Now what were all those magazines saying about Linux not being
scalable?

I tried doing 2000 users, then adding 500 more and running pwconv
again. That didn't work. I'll try splitting it up and doing just 2000
at a time, then merging the shadowed files. Is that safe?

Under Redhat 5.1 pwconv stops working with any more than about 2500
users. I need to convert a passwd file with about 4000 users. Any
ideas?
Also, if anyone knows if shadow passwords on a large passwd file incurr
a siginificant performance hit, I'd be interested in hearing about that
as well.

I've just received a Gateway ALR-7200 server, and I'm having two sets of
problems with the built-in hardware.
1) The SCSI controller is an AIC-7890, which is not recognized by the

send to the maintainers of the driver, but I
I just got a Gateway ALR-7200 Server and it has two Adaptec AIC-7890
controllers built into the motherboard. I cannot get redhat 5.1 to
recognize these controllers. I know the 7890 is not on the list of
supported Adaptec chipsets, but I suspect that the controller would work
with AIC-7xxx driver
You can find one at summersoft.fay.ar.us., but watch out because it patches
qmail to
archive a copy of all mail by default. You probably will want to disable that
patch (number 2, I believe)
by editing the SPEC file before compiling.
