Gary McKinnon U.S. extradition is delayed
Posted 18 Oct 2009
Quote
The Home Secretary has halted Gary McKinnon's extradition to consider new medical evidence about the computer hacker's mental state.
The Asperger's victim had been told he could be sent to the U.S. - where he faces 60 years in jail for hacking into military computers - by the end of this month.
But in an unexpected move, Alan Johnson has stopped the extradition clock.

VMware Server 2
Posted 6 Oct 2009
For reasons beyond my Googling powers i have yet to find a solution to getting my Virtual machines to start in Win7 64bit RC
they all boot to 95% and stay there. Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it?

Crontab issue
Posted 25 Jun 2009
Ola,
we have a unix machine with Redhat which makes 2 backups to a directory of our Warehouse Management System a day( which is maintained by a WMS software company) and is controlled by the crontab.
what we want to do is use a .cmd to Tar the backup folder on the machine (so all permissions remain in tact) and use FTP to get the file from the server.
the getting of the tar.gz works (see script below)
I run this on a "get and put mule" via the crontab
( mule = old dell 8300 with a 250GB disk running ubuntu8.04alt )
#!/bin/sh ################################################################## ###### VARIABELEN ######## GEBR=******** PASSWD=******* GETFTPURL=192.168.***.*** PUTFTPURL=192.168.***.*** GETFTPPATH=/backups/beekwms/backup2 POMPPATH=/home/administrator/overpomp PUTFTPPATH=backup FILENAME=backup2.tar.gz SCRIPTPATH=/home/administrator/ LOGNAME=overpomp LOGFILE=$SCRIPTPATH`date '+%A'`$LOGNAME.log ################################################################### echo "start script on `date '+%Y%m%d%H%M%S'` " >$LOGFILE echo "$PASSWD"|sudo -S uname -a echo "haal tar">>$LOGFILE sudo ftp -v $GETFTPURL<<END>>$LOGFILE lcd $POMPPATH cd $GETFTPPATH prompt mget $FILENAME END echo "alles over `date '+%Y%m%d%H%M%S'` " >>$LOGFILE echo "gooi over">>$LOGFILE sudo ftp -v $PUTFTPURL<<END>>$LOGFILE lcd $POMPPATH cd $PUTFTPPATH prompt mput $FILENAME END echo "alles over `date '+%Y%m%d%H%M%S'` " >>$LOGFILE
the tar file is a simple file which we want to call from the crontab
bu2toTar.cmd
tar cvfz backup2.tar.gz backup2/
this works when you run it from the command line
./bu2toTar.cmd
the red is what is i added to the crontab
################################################################################ # Backup naar disk ################################################################################ 0 19 * * * /u/vbs/bin/diskbackup.cmd 2,beekwms [color="#FF0000"]0 20 * * * /backups/beekwms/bu2toTar.cmd[/color]
all is run as root
ls -l is below
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 12288 Jun 24 19:02 backup2 -rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 664797443 Jun 24 10:43 backup2.tar.gz -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Jun 17 13:31 bu2toTar.cmd
but when it doesn't run when it's called from the crontab
why?????
