This is the automated ALUG IRC meeting reminder sent to remind you that there is an IRC meeting tonight (Monday) at 8.00pm. The meeting takes place on the irc server irc.openprojects.net in the #alug channel, you can take a look at www.openprojects.net to get more info on the openprojects network. Most IRC clients should allow you to get there with the commands "/server uk.openprojects.net" or "/server eu.openprojects.net" and "/join #alug". Popular IRC clients include tkirc, bitchx, xchat and EPIC on Unix, and Mirc under windows. Here are some links to help you get started with irc. Unix http://www.xchat.org/ http://freshmeat.net/ http://www.epicsol.org/ Windows http://www.mirc.com (loads of help with irc for newbies!)
Hi All Currently run 40 odd servers from the US. All slackware. Just setting up a similar sized operation in the UK. But in the US all servers run from their own HD. I am thinking of building a NAS for the UK Racks and setting the home dirs, mail dirs, conf files etc.. all from a single NAS with a backup server taking snapshots every hour or so. Anyone got any experience with this or any programs (Using apache/mysql/qmail etc..) that have any problems with this type of setup? Ta D

Maybe I'm missing something, but is there a single protocol for implementing your "NAS"? eg, Coda, AFS, NFS, SMBFS or something else? RedHat did some work on high availablility linux. This sounds like their FailOver Services model. The software is probably out of shape. (http://ha.redhat.com/)

I looked at Coda but nothing in-depth. Really looking for problems in the short term then looking at the specifics after Thanks Darren
I don't wish to appear dumb here (but I'm probably going to!)... What's a NAS?
