upgrading Subversion on Suse 10.0 Just in case you still feel like trying, the error in your second comment looks like it's due to an out of date version of APR. There should be apr and apr-util subdirectories in your subversion-1.6.6 source tree once you unpack subversion-deps-1.6.6.tar.gz to that directory, containing the correct versions of apr and apr-util required for SVN 1.6.6. Are you sure you unpacked the subversion-deps to the right place ? You shouldn't need to specifiy --with-apr or --with-apr-util at all. |

A simple option for graphing CPU usage on a remote Linux Server Thanks for this - I just tried out Munin and it's so much easier to get working than Cacti, Ganglia or Zenoss. |

A simple option for graphing CPU usage on a remote Linux Server I thought Ganglia looked good and tried it out on a small number of Linux servers running different distros; the setup was relatively easy but I found the graph display to be very unreliable. The collected stats for certain servers displayed just fine, but for others nearly all the data was missing. There didn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to which servers worked and which didn't. |

How to log adjustments made to a Linux machine for duplicating same steps on other machines, for documentation and for undo Puppet and Chef are both stand-alone, open source projects; they're not sponsored by a commercial entity like Red Hat, so they should keep going as long as there is a community to use them. Picking either tool shouldn't cause you any more risk than with any of the open source Linux tools you probably already use. |

Speeding up launch of Amazon EC2 Windows instances The internal host rename is a great tip - thanks ! I want to try out EBS root volumes too, not least because it will make backups a lot easier. I guess I'll have to forecast a 10 minute average startup time; that's not such a problem in itself, but the high variability of the startup times is still a real pain. |

Akamai is well known. But what is it exactly? Note that the Joel article isn't about Akamai's CDN; it describes their IP Application Accelerator service, which reroutes your internet traffic to get faster throughput. |

Nagios with nrpe Service check timed out Do the nrpe checks ever time out if you run them from the monitoring server's command line (/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H $HOSTNAME -c $CMD) ? Is there a pattern to which particular nrpe checks time out ? Is there a pattern to which of the two monitoring servers gets the timeouts ? |
