I can't speak from market or hiring perspective but as a system administrator myself, I find it handy that I have worked with various types of Linux distributions.

You need to really define what you want to do and ask for people who can execute the task. Your subject gives a completely different idea than what this email says. Kernel experts would be people who understand intricacies of Linux kernel and how to create modules, modify and tweak the kernel. That has little to do with distro customisation, which includes a very good understanding and upto date knowledge of the particular distribution. Though kernel developers will likely be very good at this too but it may not be exactly their area of interest or the problem they want to solve. ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines

It gets unmanageable once you start working on bigger applications. One way would be to use CSS classes, it is a good idea when you don't have too many variables to handle. e.g. you have to alternate between white and red backgrounds you can do try this http://jsfiddle.net/3T2rJ/ This works when the choices are known beforehand and very limited. If you need something dynamically generated using the server side script you can try http://jsfiddle.net/eJX2W/ What this does it that it keeps the javascript part clean. You can serve JS code from external file, which is good for performance reasons.

PostgreSQL as well as MongoDB are not just popular but very good DBs to use. But, they may not always fit for each situations. What I would suggest is to understand DBMS concepts and then start learning particular DBs and see how they fit and where they lack. NoSQL are the big thing today but to understand them better, you need to understand SQL itself first, NoSQL stands for Not Only SQL, it is built over and above the SQL concepts instead of being an alternative to them. Learn the basic SQL concepts, look at your favourite FOSS project and which DB it uses, learn that DB and look at how the FOSS project uses that DB. Try to find out why they chose that DB, how do they use it. Find out what are the cons, pitfalls, workarounds of the DB that they use. Start contributing to that project. That way you'll not just learn the DB but acquire many more important skillsets. ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines

In such cases, bootloaders like grub and ntldr go to the root partition of their respective installs. That's the correct way since the selection of which OS to boot is now handled by the boot manager. You'd use this strategy for multiple Linux installs too, only one install's grub goes on MBR, all the other go on the root partition. I am too late to answer this, though.

There are quite a few easily available ones. I use Asus RT N13U. It works with DD-WRT perfectly. Only reason I am not able to use DD-WRT on it is due to DD-WRT not supporting my data card, which is my sole internet connectivity. I doubt it meets Arun's requirements though as it's range isn't all that great, but it works for me as the area in which I require Wi-Fi is pretty limited. ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

One way I can think of is using inotify + rsync. Use inotify to monitor changes to the file. Whenever the sudoers file is changed, use the rsync script to copy it over to the other machines.

Not more secure, they are tightly integrated as hardware and software and thus the development effort required to provide upgrades is considerably more. The software is required to be much more optimised due to hardware constraints and as thus a lot of pieces are tightly tied together. It's unusual to see small updates to individual software as in desktop distros. Most of those distros won't even have a proper package manager or one that is less functional. That would make the process even harder. ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Are there any tips to harden the Modem which > we get from the local ISP ? Some reasons which I believe deserve a mention 1. Distros like Ubuntu run off testing branch, if you'd use something like Debian stable you'd have lesser updates. 2. A lot of updates you see are related to desktop software, which are mostly feature updates or small fixes rather than security fixes. The security fixes you receive are relatively lesser. 3. My little experience with embedded systems, which your routers would fall under, are much more tightly bound together than desktop distros so releasing updates for it is a relatively difficult task. 4. The companies producing these products are more of a hardware company than software. They have little to no incentive to keep providing regular software upgrades. They'd rather focus on quickly releasing new hardware in the market. If you combine all the 4 above reasons you'd see why it's uncommon to see regular software updates to your modems/routers. Think about how often do even smartphones receive security updates? Mostly what you'd see are feature upgrades. -- With Regards, Mehul Ved ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

I am not familiar with Kerio but why do you need to run a mail server at port 80? There are a couple of ways around to solve your problem. Situation 1: If you have 2 separate domains or ip addresses then you can set a firewall rule that if the request comes in on kerio.domain then it goes to port 80 and if it comes in on http.domain(s) then go to port 81. But, this can be a messy solution and should be avoided as far as possible. Situation 2: Run apache on port 80, run kerio on a port other than 80 and setup a virtual domain which points to that port. Examples of this setup can be found here http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/examples.html#port. IMO, this is a cleaner and easier to maintain/debug solution. -- With Regards, Mehul Ved ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
