I just got 512M RAM so i thought to switch off all the programs that i most likely will not need. The big ones, i think might be, gdm, gnome, metacity. I think a plain X will suit my purpose.

I would like to remove almost all of the Privacy Evading data that a digital camera is generating, such as EXIF DATA. EXIF DATA: Camera Brand, Camera Model, Date taken, Exposure Time, Flash Fired, Focal Length, Location (if you are using iPhone with categorization by location, if enabled), Metering Mode, etc.
May you, please, write a script which does that job for multiple files?Exiv2 seem to reduce more weight than Jhead so I'll use the command exiv2.That's, generally, what I want the script to do:Retrieve the (Modified) date of a file.
I need to ftp some files nightly from my linux box to an arbituary ftp server not controlled by me.
The ftp server admin has granted me an account for the purpose, but do not wish me to store the plain username or password in any script files for security reasons. How can I do that?
the wrong way would be:
Code:
$ cat my_script
open server_address
user plane_ftp_username plane_ftp_password
put a.txt

Can I install VMware ESXi on my Dell Inspiron laptop having core i3 processor which has got 4GB of RAM? I can allocate 100GB of hard disk space for that. This is just to practice and explore the features available. Can I install Vmware ESXi iso on KVM hypervisor like installing guest OS?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a very powerful I7 Intel processor. On this computer I want to simply run an instance of Apache Tomcat (dedicated server) running a java application with a bunch of things like mail server, servlet container, jasper, etc. Some versions of linux have too many features that I do not need. I do not want the clutter of features I will never use. What is the bare bone version of linux distrib? would that be debian?

I have worked on Xen which is being shipped with RHEL 5.4, Is it possible to install Xen hypervisor directly on bare metal, so that we can save resources. I searched in Xen Official site, but could not recognize the product that can be directly installed on bare metal like VMware ESX.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have 70 folders as an output form some software they are called folder1, folder2 folder70. I want to find a way to automatically copy the contents from each folder to one big folder? So all the files are in one folder without the directories? I was thinking of something using the mv command but I'm not sure how to do this. Ok I think I have answered my own question. I did this:
# cp folder*/* bigfolder
I used cp in case it went wrong, it worked so I deleted the previous dir's.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have looked inside and out of KMail, and for the life of me, I cannot seem to find out how to make KMail maintain HTML formatting and keep the images when REPLYING to sender or FORWARDING an email to another or others. Does anyone know a tweak to make KMail Replies and forwards to stop convert everything to plain text and strip the images? I live in a family where we all share parody, etc. emails, and plain text rarely ever cuts it. I did not suffer such with Thunderbird.

I've been trying to install a minimal Ubuntu using mini.iso and have a couple of questions to you, wise heads gives me gnome without all "unnecessary" applications, but it also gives me things like evolution and a couple of others which I don't need/want. Is there a way to install the bare minimum of gnome, but without any of these applications?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI would like to try putting some kind of free "bare metal" visualization for desktop useage on my laptop. I've been googling about the possibilities, but still I'm not sure which would actually work in my case. I've seen VMWare ESXi which looks ok, but unfortunatelly it is meant for servers and I can't have ESXI and Sphere client on same laptop. Another candidate I found is KVM, but as much I've seen it requires VTx VTd support from hardware, which my laptop can't provide. The same requirements must be met for Citrix Xen Client, which is meant for desktop virtualizations, but because of lack of VTx and VTd, can't be used in my case. Is there any other possibility? Currently I'm using VirtualBox and VMWare player for virtualization purposes, but I would like to pull out more performance out of it, and a heavy OS on top of another heavy OS just isn't the best way.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have two identical servers, one has RHEL 5 and Zimbra installed and the other is currently not really doing anything. Both have hardware RAID (Adaptec) set to RAID10, identical hard drives, etc. The RHEL/Zimbra machine is set up with LVM2. Is it possible for me to hook them up on the secondary NICs and boot the second machine with Knoppix or something else, and easily tell it to duplicate the first machine onto the second, down to the last bit, or do I need to make all the partitions beforehand and dd each one separately?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm running a x86-based Debian Squeeze LAMP server which is also my gateway between my home network and the big wide world (Shorewall/Shorewall6) As you can guess, when (as it did just recently) the hardware dies and needs to be replaced, the rebuild of a machine which has been tuned and tweaked over years is "interesting", to say the least. I am looking for some software which will allow me to do a bare-metal restore of the software and setups (data is accommodated already, so that part can be ignored) I'd like to use something to create a boot disc (CD/DVD) that I can put in a new machine and get my original setup installed on the new tin automatically.
I looked at Mondo, it looks ideal, but Google hints at problems with GRUB, and incompatibilities with Debian Squeeze....so the questions are:
1) Has anyone run Mondo on Debian Squeeze successfully?
2) Is there a good howto for Mondo on Debian?
3) Is there an alternative that runs on Debian and that fits my requirements?
