Just a place holder for the sun doc I am reading on Solaris Zones/Containers.

System Administration Guide: Solaris Containers-Resource Management and Solaris Zones

Not really much to say just wanted to post this little snippet so I can do a ZFS writeup latter on.

To enable the nsmcwebserver to listen to remote connections with out having to run “netservices open” and turn on all services to accept remote connection. The following three commands will

svccfg -s svc:/system/webconsole \

    setprop options/tcp_listen = true

svcadm refresh svc:/system/webconsole/usr/sbin/smcwebserver restart

Official Sun docs here

Hope this little tidbit helps someone else if they are lucky enough to stumble upon it.

If there is anyone out there reading this blog or checking on it I now have internet again and will be updating it shortly.

Ok so I know this is a Linux blog and it seems like all I keep writing about is Windows software hopefully this will be the last app for awhile.

Anyways I dont know how many people need a good application to do RDP, Telnet, SSH and VNC on windows but if you do then I suggest mRemote. I have found the app on LifeHacker and been using it all day at work. I have to say I am very impressed with it.

Anyways here is the link to mRemote.

The link here is the best way to update a WordPress blog.

Quick summery for myself so I do not have to look at the link anymore.

$ cd blog
$ svn sw http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.3.3/

Find new tags here http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags

This application is a life saver, now I know Internet Exploder is a Linux persons worst nightmare but sometimes it is an evil we must put up with. I have shown this site to a few of my web developer friends and they just love it.

Anyways wanted to post about it to share with others and say thanks to the people who wrote it.

– UPDATED

New file server along with a few specs.

New file server for the apt. I have decided to got with Open Solaris not for any other reason then to have full access to the ZFS file system. If you do not know anything about ZFS I suggest this wikipedia article, here. The total running capacity for the server is 3.6TB using 10 500 gig Seagate drives. Why only 3.6TB instead of 5TB well one 500 gig drives are only ~ 465 gigs and I am running the array in a mode called raidz2 which is very similar to raid 6 in its fault tolerance.

Other info on the server is a 15 hot swap drive bay Supermicro case with triple hot swap power supplies. A Supermicro Motherboard with an Intel processor and 1 gig of memory. For sata controllers I am using two of these also made by Supermicro.

The case.

Motherboard

And last the 10 500 gig harddrives.
