Brian,

I might suggest email them off-list and making arrangements, then coming back on-list and announcing the plan.

Subject: [tclug-list] Auto mounting memory cards on insert...
Message-ID: <3A486384-52D0-4171-99EC-FAF44E1595C7@cwis.biz>

I know I can write udev rule to do this but I don?t know how to make it happen? it would be on any card insertion (SD, CF, etc.) and might be on any media type (for now it?s a Lexar USB3 reader).

Running Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS Server (no GUI).

Drivers are either FAT32 or ExFAT, never NTFS or anything else.

Then, when it mounts, I presume I can run a script if I can do this via a udev rule.


Any ideas? Here?s the udevadm report for one of the cards, this is a 64GB SD card:

I'm getting pricing for Veeam to back up our VMWare hosts, but would like to avoid the licensing costs. Currently, I use Bacula for all user dat backups, but not sure if that is a good choice for backing up entire VMDK files of 40+ VMs 

Any recommendations?

i've been using GhettoVCB to backup VMDKs, it works... usually. It has
some serious drawbacks: the package isn't signed so you cannot easily
install it or keep ESX updated with it installed. Installing it by
hand is easy enough, but you have to enable SSH or the console to do
so and finally there is no management console for it so you have to
have your PFY keep up with the emails it spits out to ensure that
everything is working. on the other hand its free and it works...
usually  :)

I second GhettoVCB.  Been using it for many years without issue.

Takes a snapshot, does the backup, removes snapshot when done.  Simple but
effective.  It does choke (very randomly and rarely for me) but when it
does it's been smart enough to remove the snapshot so I don't have a system
working for too long on the snapped image, not smart enough to try the
other VMs when one does fail to backup, the entire process just stops.

Thanks for the replies... On a related question: I am researching an affordable solution for a 72TB NAS to store the snapshots. Following some conversations of others doing the same, I am reading that a failed drive can take a very long time (many days) to rebuild a raid 6. We use quite a few Synology units with far less capacity, and like them. Is there a recommended raid configuration that would have more acceptable rebuild times? Couldn't imagine having to watch a raid rebuild go on for days.

I build 100Tb+ openzfs like everyday, well recently i am building tiny 
ones(20Tb or so). In zfs you can build smaller raidsets that you can 
combine together to create a pool. So when you go to rebuild, it doesn't 
take as long, especially on bigger systems. Also it doesn't resync, it 
resilvers only coping the areas of disks that has been written to.

if you would like more info, contact me offlist at linda at kateleyco.com.

Pay the money & get Veeam.  It's by far the best compared to any of the 
open source solutions out there (I have used many) for VMWare.  Don't 
monkey around with your livelihood.  Spend the money & do it right.

Open source backup solutions are fairly feature limited overall.  Even 
the open source projects will make you pay for the good stuff they offer.

If you are using VMWare, then hands down you will not find a finer 
backup solution than Veeam.

Backup locally, offsite, to a cloud storage situation, replication to 
other vm hosts, dedup, compression, and easy to use.  They also offer a 
free program called EndPoint protection.  Works great by itself, or you 
can use it with your Veeam backup repo's.  A linux version is expected 
to be released any day now too.

The ups units are older and might have the covers off. Where can we 
meet? I'm south of the river in Burnsville.

I figured it out in the end -- see the links.


I don't know.  It seems very wrong to me.  More examples:


$ echo -e '9\n9a' | sort -V
9
9a

$ echo -e '9.\n9a.' | sort -V
9.
9a.

$ echo -e '9.0\n9a.0' | sort -V
9a.0
9.0

$ echo -e '9a.a\n9.a' | sort -V
9.a
9a.a

$ echo -e '9a.a\n9.z' | sort -V
9.z
9a.a


It matters whether the period is followed by a letter or a digit.
More:

$ touch 9.0 9a.0

$ ls 9.0 9a.0
9.0  9a.0

$ ls -v 9.0 9a.0
9a.0  9.0

Apparently, the "versions" being sorted, even by GNU sort, are meant to be 
filenames, and the extension of the filename has to match a specific 
pattern.  Read here:

https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/Details-about-version-sort.html#Details-about-version-sort

So this works:

$ echo -e '9a.gz\n9.gz' | sort -V
9.gz
9a.gz

But the .0 extension doesn't match the pattern, so the -V option has 
unpredictable output.

I figured this out by reading here...

https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/sort-invocation.html

...and following the link to "Details about version sort."

actually, no  :(

CRT monitors are not something that FreeGeek can process, resell or
reuse. they just end up costing money to be rid of. You are better off
taking it to you local BestBuy or Staples for recycling (which they do
for free up to a point).

Hi, Greg:  I'm both a recipient of pcsforpeople's good works, and a 
strong advocate for what they do.  I encourage you to visit them, see 
what they do.  When folks from low income population can come across a 
working monitor, that gift is well-received.  See if they can keep your 
name and address, in case they have such a family come in for 
assistance.  Just a thought.

it may well be that sort behaves in accordance with the definition, if so i
say the definition has a bug.  "a" should not preceed null.

It doesn't even need to be that big.  I set Handbrake to encode DVDs 
down 600to 1000 GB - and see no noticeable loss in quality.

Have been using it for years.  Many kids movies (cartoons) compress down 
even better.

Then, you are at the point where you forget streaming, and just copy the 
files onto the device.  ISO's are going to fill your 64 GB device in no 
time... Handbrake encoded files will let you fit many many more.

If you use apple devices, make sure you use the MP4 container. apple 
devices won't play things in the (technically better) MKV container (by 
default) for various silly reasons, even though the contained file is 
H264 encoded in either case.

Everything else in the world will play either MP4 or MKV contained files.

Handbrake will maintain all subtitles and audio tracks (if you ask it 
to) and you can script it for bulk conversion.  It does a pretty good 
job at picking the correct (longest) title per DVD.

Some Disney DVDs use a copy protection scheme that breaks the DVD 
standards, and makes the DVD's appear to have 99 tracks, each of varying 
lengths - and playing the wrong one will result in the movie playing out 
of order.  On these, typically you have to use another DVD player - VLC 
usually works - but sometimes a real physical one - to determine the 
correct track number, then ask Handbrake to copy that.

But your ISO extraction process might have already stripped the copy 
protection non-sense, as you mentioned you had removed some other stuff 
already.

This is the entire concept behind the new compression standard at Netflix.

Sometimes I watch podcasts on http://bsdnow.tv
and others.   Sometimes they will start talking
about something boring for a while and I wish there
was a way to jump over that part to the next topic.
I can slide the bar ahead, but I'm not sure how much
to move it.  Do any podcasts or media players have
support for this?  Thanks in advance.

vlc hotkeys can jump ahead or back by 10sec, 1min, and 10min out of the
box, i've never felt any temptation to customize them differently.

Subject: [tclug-list] Nix/BSD custom edge router options for CL fiber
Message-ID: <CACEdYO1WqSzTyRnaQrWJXcbVWPfm3KASaUgCvzsttc77hsdJBA@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I switched to CenturyLink FTTH, and I'm looking for some small form factor
edge router options (went with leasing their c2100t for now). Basically,
they use PPPoE and require vlan 201 tagging from an ONT.

The vlan tagging has been the biggest headache. I know some folks have been
able to get it turned off, but when I called support they were pretty
clueless. So, with vlan tagging setup, I tried an old E3000 and openwrt,
but it refused to authenticate properly with PPPoE.

So, that leaves me back at square one. I'm looking for something small, not
sure if this would work, but the Ubiquiti EdgeRouter (X Advanced Gigabit
Ethernet Routers ER-X 256MB) is a good size. I'd like to be able to toss
Linux on it (or BSD), run a firewall (ipdabales) and pass the traffic to my
wireless router. Really only need 2x gigabit ports, and ideally the
hardware would handle 1 gig throughput (don't have it, but want to future
proof a little), can handle larger NAT tables and IPv6.

Hoping to hear thoughts or other peoples experiences with this, thanks!

What it said was that when the extension begins with a number, as in .7z 
or .9 (which was your example), then there is no definition.

I agree that seems ridiculous.  It obviously is doing something and what 
it is doing makes no sense to me.  Why should -V give unpredictable 
results under any conditions?  Apparently, that was their plan.  If you 
write to the developers, let us know what they say.
