Anatomy of Perfomance tests

2012-06-29 Thread Siju George
Hi,

Can some body comment on these tests?

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=articleitem=debian_wheezybsd_freezenum=1

Are these tests skewed in some way to make Linux look better?

Thanks

Re: Xen/VM?

 Dfly doesn't support Xen. Some providers support HVM (not Amazon) and

Actually FreeBSD now runs on Amazon using HVM.

I guess something similar can be done with dragonfly as well.

Currently Amazon detects HVM instances as Windows instances and charge
you the MS windows licence fee.

Recently I attended a training by Amazon in Bangalore and I raised
this issue during the Question  Answer session to the Amazon folks.

The reply I got was that this work to get FreeBSD running without the
additional cost is in their to-do list but it is not of high priority.
To make them increase the priority one thing that can be done is for
users to mention or request it in their forums. The discussions
happening in the forums adds to the priority of a task.

So I guess the user group can make this happen fast if the
requirements are made known in their forum.

command to inentify the process that is listening in a port.

2007-04-09 Thread Siju George

Hi,

How Do you actually Identify what process is listening on a TCP/IP port?
nmap does not usually give the right answer.
There should be some command that can be run on the local host for
identification right?

Thankyou so much

kind Regards

Hi,

I am not subscribed to the list.

The Bittorrent Link on

Bittorrent

The FreeBSD project encourages the use of BitTorrent for distributing
the release ISO images. A collection of torrent files to download the
images is available at:

 You're welcome.
 
 If English isn't your native language, it's worth noting that a (*very*
 little) bit of his advice is slightly archaic. ``To-day'' is no longer
 hyphenated; ``dependable'' is now an acceptable synonym for
 ``reliable'' and ``trustworthy.''
 
 The heart of this short work, however, is the second part. Read that;
 then write your letters to Mr. Richardson
 [EMAIL PROTECTED].
 

Yes I tried some of its tricks in my mail to Mark today.
Hope I 've improved a bit hahaha!!! :)

Thankyou so much again Constantine and Ben :))

good luck

 Don't think that you should silence yourselves, but do brush up on your
