Ok, so I have this script that was provided to me by one of the posters on this site. This script seems to be perfect. However, since this is a telnet script, i need to add an if then statement to it but dont know how to do it. What i want to do is to have this script spit out a certain digit response (0) if telnet is able to connect to machine. If it isn't, i want this script to spit out something else, like a 1 or 2. I also don't...

I stayed out of this one for a while. Anytime you make assumptions about timezone or date you get in trouble - of all applications, calendrics and time get mishandled the most, IMO. The std C runtime plus the environment is the final arbiter on what the system thinks about time and date. This code is a rather stupid (with no error checking) brute force solution. It has assumptions: 32 bit system, years from 1970-2037, 2 ds time changes per...

I am not sure if C/C++ libraries has anything to do with the Linux kernel being used. You may need to check C/C++ documentation for the implementation.

I am a fan of debian. I use both stable and release version for my purpose. Debian comes a far way beating all the others. and Debian also has the most no. of packages in its repos. cheers Merry Christmas.

Correct

Actually, I'd like to manage the memory space of a process. We develop a process level virtual machine, which could run different binary code( MIPS , SPARC, ..) on different platforms( IA-32...). So I wish I could allocate all the low memory space ( 0~1G) to the guest process(e.g , the entry of a normal mips process begins at 0x004001a0). While the default memory address allocated for ld-linux.so is at 0x0082100, so I'd like to move...

Not entirely, running: Code: $ which uuencode

Unless there's real urgent need to change it, you should leave /etc/crontab as is. The primary use of /etc/crontab is to allow the system to manage its own log files and environments. If there are tasks that you would like to include in the system housekeeping to be maintained at the times listed within /etc/crontab, they can be included in the appropriate /etc/cron.<time> file. For purposes of a database backup,...

40GB should be a good amount of space. 2.5GB might be "enough" in sheer technicality but if you're installing a full-blown GUI with all the frills, that doesn't leave a lot to actually live in.
