• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    LinuxCon North America 2011

    Some interesting comments coming out of there: Ask the world's most famous kernel developer what he thinks of the virtualization wars going on the Linux community between KVM and Xen and you'll hear a condemnation (of a sort) of them both. "I'm not a virtualization kind of guy. I think...

    Home Email Server?

    You could always setup a micro linux server on Amazon EC2 and send a request to remove the email sending limitations. You get the first year free to try it out.

    how to better secure smb share from linux to windows

    You can limit by IP to the share either globally or on a share basis. For example, to allow only the 192.168.0.0/24 network access to my 'stuff' folder this would do it: [stuff] path = /stuff writable = yes hosts allow = 192.168.0. I wouldn't recommend using /etc/hosts.allow for...

    redhat - question how to apply changes to iptables

    # yum install system-config-firewall # yum install policycoreutils-gui That will install a user friendly front end for both iptables and selinux. SELinux has a bit of a learning curve but isn't that hard to grasp. As for enabling selinux and locking everything down, that's fine but...

    What to know before taking VCP course!

    Honestly these tests are a joke. I would say 90% of people cram for these multiple choice obscure questions and forget the material (because most of it isn't practical) within the next 3 months of passing the test. The only true IT certifications worth merit are hands on, know your shit or...
