Is there a way to configure varnish or any other caching reverse proxy, to serve pages from its cache when the back-end fails? At the moment, if the back-end goes down a 503 Service Unavailable error would be returned to the browser. I would prefer it if visitors got to see a cached version than an error page while the back-end is being fixed.
My setup:
[varnish (public ip)] <=== [router] <=== [web server (private ip)]
PS: I have only one back-end web server.
Have seen some highly compressed files around.(for eg: i have seen 700mb of data compressed to around 30-50mb)
But how do you get such compressed files, I have tried using softwares like Winrar and 7Zip but have never achieved such high compression.
What are the techniques/software that allow you to compress files so well?
(P.S. I'm using Windows Xp)
Hi,
I like to manage my servers in English but my client is Polish. Is there a way to keep the main language of the server in English but get "Company Web"/OWA/Remote Access website and other publically accessible parts in Polish?
P.S. I've already installed WSS language pack - this is not the issue, the issue is to have "Company Web" and other portal contents in Polish.
I have a Dell Poweredge r710 server with five 1 TB disks. All of them are in RAID 5. I was trying to install Centos but it says "Your boot partition is on disk using GPT Partition..."
I read somewhere that centos can't install on a disk larger than 2TB, so I made some partitions smaller, but it's not working.
PS, I am going to install Proxmox on that, but Proxmox also won't accept disks larger than 2TB.
When I am trying to remove program from "Add or Remove Programs" I get an dialog with ability to chose instalation file. But I didn't have that file. So I can't remove program...

I have a Linux machine that is not running too much in the way of software, but is somehow using 1.7GB of the 2GB of the installed memory. When I run free, I get:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2072616 1979972 92644 0 164876 129740
-/+ buffers/cache: 1685356 387260
Swap: 498004 1632 496372
However, when I run ps aux, the memory usage of all processes only comes out to 295.9MB, which is a far cry from the 1.7GB of memory that free reports as used.
Why is there such a discrepancy?
hi there
When i read something I need to underscore what i like, or what i think is important, and to take notices about that read, near on that current paragraph.
Soo, does anyone know a firefox addon or something else(other browser, any other application) which can provide me such a functionality?
ps: I've tried some research tools as zotero, but it is not what I'm looking for.
Currently, I have some packages my own using upstart, they are working with the stable branch of Debian. I'm going to switch to sid/unstable, and then the warning comes:
WARNING: The following essential packages will be removed.
This should NOT be done unless you know exactly what you are doing
sysvinit
Is it safe to remove sysvinit?
P.S. It's a clean base system setup by
# debootstrap --variant=buildd sid /sid-root
My anti malware software "hitman pro" uses heuristics to highlight suspicious files. It is highlighting the following three, all within c:\windows\system32
mpcdx.ax
rlapedec.ax
rlmpcdec.ax
Hitman pro has never complained about these files before. I don't know if that's because they're newly added or newly modified.
Should I be worried?
P.S. I recently installed erightsoft's "super" program.

I have a Linux machine running as a bridge simulating various network conditions. I use tc for this. Introducing delays or packet loss is quite simple but I got into trouble trying to configure bandwidth limiting.
Can you, please, show me how to limit all the traffic going through my bridge without any special rules and condition, simply limit it to 1Mb/s?
Thanks.
PS Your favorite link to tc tutorial will be appreciated.
Hi,
I just got a laptop from a friend. The CD/DVD drive is not present in "My Computer"! But the tray comes out when I press the button and everything.

Can someone help me enable my CD/DVD drive?
Thanks.
[P.S. I have administrator privileges]
I'd like my .NET app to use a proxy which i know how to do except .net doesnt support sock4a/sock5. I know how to setup my app but
How do i setup socat to at as a TCP proxy on part 1234 and use the sock5 server at 127.0.0.1:5678?
It must forward all TCP connect. I had luck with privoxy earlier but that only supports http connections
PS: I am on windows but the commands should be the same as linux
In Power Management Preferences, On AC Power tab, I have brightness to 100%. "Dim display when idle" is not checked.
I know for sure my LCD brightness is capable of going higher, because if I hit Fn and F7 then it resets the monitor brightness and settings for a few seconds, but the resolution breaks and then the brightness goes back.
PS: OS is Debian Lenny ( I set the tags but for clarification ) and laptop is a Thinkpad.
I'm looking for a Mac application or an Web application to sync all my Facebook, LinkedIn, Gmail contacts and Mac OS X address book contacts in one place.
At the same time, it would be great if it didn't create a bunch of duplicates.
(PS: The default sync between gmail contacts and address book seems to only create duplicates and doesn't seem to really work well together).
Does anyone have a solution?
I am reading a nice article about upgrading php on mac os x mountain lion.
At the Install part of the document the author says that the user must execute a multiple line configure command.
What is the easiest way to do it, using mac os terminal?
Thank you.
PS : I have executed yesterday the configure command without the parameters.
Can this action cause any problems with the re-execution of configure command (with parameters this time)?
It is always suggested on first step to disable the remote root login for the SSH protocol.
I have a low-right user able to connect via SSH and once connected, I simply su in order to gain more rights.
Now when using a sFTP client, I use my low-right user and am thus able to do next to nothing.
My question is : Is it possible to change user after login using 3rd party client, such as Transmit, Cyberduck, Filezilla ?
PS : Mac clients would be great ;)
Hi all
I have tried many ways/software to save a web page (html, mht, doc, pdf). My favorite software was an addon for browsers from Omnipage (OCR). What i like about this is that it prints the whole page (continuously) and it doesn't write the http path and page number on the footer of every page, which i find very annoying.
Does anyone know a software like this one (freeware or not)
PS
I tried CutePDF
It has to be sound source ignorant(youtube, online radio, skype calls, etc). Everything that comes out of "my speakers" must be saved in any decent quality sound format.
How can I do that?
P.S.
It is Ubuntu system.
find . -name "*.java" -exec grep "foo" {} \;
This just prints matches, no file name.
find . -name "*.java" -exec grep "foo" /dev/null {} \;
But this prints file name as well.
Why? What are the mechanics of find/grep that cause file name to print when /dev/null is inserted into the mix?
PS - yes, I know I can do "grep -H"
