RE: Please run windows update now
Calling someone who uses Windows un-professional would be a "gossip" style phrase. This is a piece of software which can be tested and compared to others. Would Android be better then windows only because it is based on the Linux kernel or since it's based on the full engineering it was invested from the bottom up? So from my point of view on things: Windows is good Linux is good BSD is good Mac is good Others, good... But depends on what you need. If you need to work with a system that has a specific compatibility or usability levels then this is what you need. If it works for me it doesn't mean that it's either good or bad for me and others! I love Linux based systems but they all need some "magic hands" on them to convert them from Linux to "something better". So with this in mind: If you are a magician and Linux feels good for you it doesn't mean that everybody should be magicians!

Go over to http://line6.com/software/ - You convince them to produce a Linux version of the software for their musician's gear, and I'll get rid of the Toshiba laptop running Windows. Alternatively, find me an OSX laptop that costs anywhere near the $400 I paid for the Toshiba Satellite. (And yes, I already tried running their software in a VM, neither VirtualBox or VMWare does a good enough job of emulating MIDI-over-USB2 to let the drivers in the VM connect to my Pod HD, so don't bother suggesting that). You want to repeat your claim that I'm an unprofessional, unethical moron because I have a fully patched Windows 10 laptop that's backed up on a regular basis because there's no realistic alternative?

As long you won't use ATOM CPUs you will probably max the 10Gbe. Eliezer

Re: OT - Small DNS appliances for remote offices.
Hey Ray, Most tiny routers with 64MB ram are able to run a cache dns service while not all of them have the same level such as BIND but rather dnsmasq. I think that it's not always a bad choice and it depends on what other infrastructure needs you have in these remote locations. Someone mentioned mikrotik and they use some kind of caching daemon which might even be dnsmasq under the hood. I would first make sure what is the reliability that you need which means if you have a FW and Cisco then you will might want something more then a basic TP-LINK router.(which maybe the right choice...) Assuming this infrastructure is big enough you will prefer a basic mikrotik for the cost and support.

Am looking for options to deploy DNS caching resolvers at remote locations where there may only be minimal infrastructure (FW and Cisco equipment) and limited options for installing a noisier, more power hugnry servers or appliances from a vendor. Stuff like Infoblox is too expensive.

Linux router traffic monitoring, how? netflow?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hey all, I have a tiny linux router based on ubuntu and sometimes I get a massive load of UDP traffic because of one of the PCs in the network. Usually I handle the situation with a strict block using iptables. The main issue is to find it due to the load. For now I am monitoring the traffic load using MRTG but it won't notify me. I can try to use nagios to monitor traffic load for a period of time but before I start working on it I want another person opinion and options. I have seen netflow in the past but never actually used it.
