  • How to Run Internet Explorer 7, 8 and 9 in Linux with or without Wine – How to Run Internet Explorer 7, 8 and 9 in Linux with or without Wine
    Microsoft have a wonderfully long history of badly designed software that they're proudly continuing to this day with the abomination of IE 9 and the ghastly sham that is Windows 7. It's a tribute to the skills of the many hard-working marketing heads over at Redmond that despite the poor quality and the easy availability of superior cost-free alternatives, people the world over keep coming back to Microsoft like hookers on crack.
  • Welcome to perlmeme.org – perlmeme.org is a collection of Frequently Asked Questions, "How To" documents, and tutorials about the very cool Perl programming language.

    PsPasswd uses Windows password reset APIs, so does not send passwords over the network in the clear.

  • missing disks, dump devices, mirroring, etc. – Waldemar Mark Duszyk – Since, we are pretty much always learning …. Some of us on a more elementary, intermediate, or advanced level but regardless of the level we all always learn or re-learn (because what we have mastered we had an ample time to forget – not doing it for a while), here it is a reminder of how to deal with a volume group (in this case it is rootvg which for some reasons lost one of it disks. The loss could be a function of SAN, VIO or other event. It could be a permanent loss – a disk is dead, broken, no longer functioning or the loss was/is temporary in nature; AIX kernel detected a timeout (without any disk errors associated with device failure) long enough for the kernel to mark the disks missing.

As I was working on this project, my colleague Igor was busy configuring RedHat authentication with Active Directory and Kerberos (already configured on AD).
