is virtual ip is up
im running multiply IPs on the same host. for each IP i wish to start an instance of httpd server. therefore i would liek to make sure that the VIP is up and running before the httpd is starting up. i tried using the /sbin/ifconfig and it doesn't give a full indication on the availbilty of the IP. i also tried to ping this IP but it is not clear if this ip is running from the same host. is there any way to distinguesh what IPs are running on a particualr host, and if this IP is vaild on the network before starting any service on this IP. ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
A simple question about hebrew in terminal
Hello, I have support in hebrew on my Linux desktop (Fedora 10). I can switch to hebrew with the keyboard indicator and it works. Say I want to perform a simple operation in terminal: rename a file named a.txt to קובץ.txt I type: mv a.txt and then, when I type: ק and then ו and then ב and then ץ it shows: ץבוק I can of course write the letters in reverse order, but this is not comfortable to do it for each rename operation. Is there a way to solve this ? If I am not wrong I heard about some BIDI support, but it seems to me that this BIDI support is for some specific word processing/editors. I an talking about the gnome-terminal. Rgs, D ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il

I an talking about the gnome-terminal. First, I wouldn't worry about it. The name of the file is OK - the letters are entered into the directory in the correct order, and if you show it in a BiDi aware application (say, konqueror or whatever file explorer you use), it will show properly. There are terminal applications that support BiDi. This is usually not a very good idea because it tends to confuse issues with the cursor and mess up curses-based applications. Personally, I actually prefer to work in non BiDi aware apps to enter data (e.g. Write HTML or localization files or whatnot). It's easier to tell which character is the 10th from the quote etc. even in a mixed string. ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
Re: Linux-HA [Was: High availability virtual ip]
2009/6/24 Michael Tewner tew...@gmail.com: I you would like to also manage cluster resources, Linux-HA is your best solution. I would agree that it has a steep learning curve, and it's a pain, but it does exactly what you want, and more. It will handle all of your cluster resources - We've used it for MySQL, DRBD, OCFS2, Asterisk, and others. Since I was the one who mentioned Linux-HA/heartbeat in the first place, I feel compelled to say that 0) I have no affiliation or vested interest in Linux-HA, and I am not going to take the job of its public defender on. 1) I cannot comment on the problems that Itay et al. had since I don't know what they were and don't understand some of the (incomplete) use case descriptions. See item 0 above, thorough investigations can go to the appropriate Linux-HA forums. 2) My experiences with Linux-HA were separated in time by a few years and have always been in the context of HA of quite a bit more than just IP address, including DRBD, etc., for management (i.e., no serious high performance server traffic requirements, no five nines or anything like that, only we need HA of management systems; DRBD integration was a big draw.). It is certainly possible that if one needs only a virtual IP there are other solutions. I mentioned it because I knew that virtual IP was one of the things it did. 3) Allow me to take the claims of too steep learning curve with a grain of salt. The last time I recall (a year, maybe less, ago) it took a *competent* person a few hours from never heard of Linux-HA to reading the docs, installing and configuring it, integrating it with a very non-trivial server application, verifying in the lab, demoing live that it works, and being very satisfied the experience. This included IP address HA, uninterrupted client sessions through failover, live replication of configuration changes, contiguous real-time management of a complicated network infrastructure through failover, etc. -- Oleg Goldshmidt | o...@goldshmidt.org ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
