backups to cd and other disks and maintaining file attribs
by hanasaki 29 Aug '04

29 Aug '04

Any recommendations on how to maintain the attribs (user/group/perms/dates...) of files when they are burned to a cd/cdrw/dvdram, or copied to another partition, and later need to be restored to their original form? comments on how to handle links? thanks

Backup Media.
by Jonathan Hutchins 29 Aug '04

29 Aug '04

D'Oh! Quickest way to stumble on something obvious: post a question about it to a list. 8.5GB DVD media is double-sided DVD+R. Double-sided DVD-R is 9.4GB. I wonder if there are drives that will write both sides as a continuous image?

Forgetting the possible > comments on grammar, why are you using ext3? For the journal? They way I've interpreted what I've read is this: UDF has components for redundacy built in to it. With DVD-RAM, that's not useful. ext3 is a fast file system with very little computational overhead so I can use those extra CPU cycles to be a compression nazi. > and, as long as you have experience with both, would you compare > experiences of one vs the other along with info on how you did get > ext3 on the disk instead of udf. If you have DVD-RAM and you only need to get the file in Unix, then use ext3. Otherwise, UDF is what you want for both CD(+-)RW and DVD(+-)(RW/RAM). > I had been looking for something is compatible with the Win cdrw > disks so it is no longer necessary to keep making/burning ISOs. I > think you are saying this is it? thanks Yes, exactly. But if you want Win32 compatibility you must use UDF.

Web Client Tracking
by Jonathan Hutchins 28 Aug '04

28 Aug '04

I have a client who wants to get a better idea of what path users take through his website, where they spend their time, what they're really interested in. He gets "Analog" and "Webalizer" reports, but those reflect the single-page-view perspective that HTML implies, and he wants session logs. (I don't think he's quite clear on how much information he's asking to digest, but anyway...) Anybody know of a package that breaks the stateless model of HTML and will give him the tracking he's after? Oh, one that acutally works would be nice. He found one that launched a new perl script for each new page view on the server, and when it hit something like 2039 parallel instances none of the other CGI stuff would work.

RE: Whither ITEC?

I too would be willing to man the booth. Make CDs. Print color info sheets, brochures, photos. And basically do anything that is needed. I've got a nice fairly new HP high color high speed inkjet that needs breaking in. ;') Too bad there isn't a driver that can handle the max resolution. Good thing it has an option to let the printer decide the resolution based on the paper type. Pretty cool. > -----Original Message----- > From: djgoku > > On Thu, 26 Aug 2004 21:43:44 -0500, Chris Bier > chris.bier > > > | Will we have a presence? > > What kind of presence? Like a booth?

Hey, Mr. Dunsmore, thanks for all the hard work! To Bill and the others who helped out as well. People in this list have been talking about fixing the server for what seems like years, you guys actually did something. Don't curse the darkness - light a fart!

Re: php shared event calendar suggestion
by Brian Kelsay 27 Aug '04

27 Aug '04

With Groupware, comes a shared calendar. Maybe you misunderstand the meaning of groupware. Usually it means webmail, calendar, addressbook, webspace, possibly other online apps, basically an online office.

I think you may have missed the original specifications. This is not a groupware situation.
