Yup, that's the general consensus. Working class folks tayo eh. It's
ideally on Saturday afternoons. Next one is about Dec 28 or
thereabout, and then a couple of days later... hopefully three
sessions during the long Christmas break.

We don't have a next venue yet though. Any volunteers out there? ;)
Puwede din inside a school campus, like UST, UP or something. Or a
public park in Makati.

Right on dude :)  Y'all pick up quick, and that's the company I'd like
to hang out with! We'll do this PUOSU Con about once a month.

Oh yes I remember. I was playing on backtrack last night and that
seemed to stick.

Re: Mobile Computing - Best Linux filesystem configuration

Hi Eric,

Good idea!  I think I have a spare SSD in my eePC.  I'll see if I can 
install the OS on the SSD and the songs/movies etc.. on the HDD.  Thanks.

linux bonding and then receiving martian sources in the logs

Hi All,

I have successfully set-up NIC bonding (load balanced round-robin) with the help from
http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-bond-or-team-multiple-network-interfaces-nic-into-single-interface.html
and it rocks! 

But now I'm getting lots of martian sources lines in the /var/log/messages. Here are the lines:

Nov 18 12:55:57 hostname kernel: martian source 192.168.1.11 from 192.168.1.11, on dev bond0
Nov 18 12:55:57 hostname kernel: ll header ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:30:48:9b:26:60:08:06

Not sure what's going on here. Any help or directions will be highly appreciated.

My alternate solution is to log_martians = 0 in the sysctl.conf but I prefer to find the real solution.  

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!

Perl Question on backticks and system() on Unix [A bit OT]


Hi:

    I'm not sure if the phenomenon occurs in Linux, but occurred in the HP-UX machine that I'm
using.

    The following code below doesn't work:
    `/usr/bin/clear`;
    if ($? != 0) {
        die "$!";
    }
    print "exit\n";

   Note:
   a) The screen doesn't clear but "die" is not executed (i.e. "exit" in printed on screen) )

    system("clear");   # This one works.

   I'm just curious why `/usr/bin/clear` or `clear` doesn't work, yet system("clear") works given
the fact that using backticks for other shell command works.

    I know this code is not portable, but portability is not an issue here =) Just curious.

    Thanks.

Regards,
Ludwig

Re: [put-up-or-shut-up conference] let's do it?

Hi pips,

I'm not available up until Dec. 15 due to training I'll be conducting
in India and some sort of stuff.  But if in case, I'll be proxied by
my friend (Jun) who'll bring those images instead.  He's available on
weekends.  Just post the date of the event.

Thanks,
Michael

strange network problem

Hello All,

   i've been getting some strange problems from our ISP lately. We were given a set of ip addresses along with
our subscription, and we've used one to set up a VPN going to our remote office.

   Right now i'm getting 1- 1.2second ping times; based on the traceroute results, we're getting 100-120ms
ping times going to the intermediate routers, but are getting 1 second ping times to our remote office.

  The odd thing is that our remote office reports no problems pinging our immediate gateway, but they're also
getting 1 second ping times pinging our vpn server. 

   Any ideas on what the problem might be? My guess is that there could be some bandwidth/traffic control
settings that may be messing up the connection.

tia
