Hi,
Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently
got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky
all the time, esp when it rains.
So I'm thinking to save money and combine all my stuff onto Charter.
I've already got High Speed internet and regular old cable. Not wild
about Digital Cable since I'm happy with Tivo and I don't want yet
another set top box to have to deal with...
So, any horror stories about Charter Phone VOIP quality and service?
Thanks,
John
Sure,
http://goonathon.net/misc/x.mount
I keep in it ~/bin/ .
I mount everything under ~/ssh/ (sshfs) or ~/ftp/ (curlftpfs).
Usage:
$ x.mount
$ x.mount ~/ssh/bluebutton.com
To unmount,
$ fusermount -u /home/guinan/ssh/bluebutton.com
but I usually mount as-needed and forget about it.

What userid is invoking sshfs? If its in /etc/fstab, and you're using
a setuid /bin/mount, it might be looking for authorized_keys under
the setuid id's homedir (root?).
In which case, you might also want to add "-o allow_other", and
double-check the other sshfs options.
Since I'm the only user of my sytsem, I use a little script, do it all
under my userid, and avoid /etc/fstab.

Create an ssh key on the local machine and put the public portion of it into the remote servers /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys file then you can ssh(fs) without a password

Eric,
I remember you mentioned you knew how to use sshfs with certificates for
passwordless mounting at the last meeting when we went out for pizza.
How was that done?

In the worst case, once you have the 350 songs off the Ipod, you
could just copy them over to the vista pc and then itunes on the
vista pc will take care of the rest...

My ipod is formatted as hfs+ and i can use it on linux. however i needed to
disable the journal feature; that can only be done from within OS X. To do
so plug your ipod into OS X and run diskutil -disableJournal
<ipod_mount_point>. Although if you plan to reformat the ipod for visit,
the format of the ipod will change from HFS+ to vfat, linux has fill
read/write support for vfat; so writing to the ipod after you format for
visita will not be a problem

Also, it looks like my debian desktop calls it atsar for some reason

Could you provide more information abdout "sar"?
I tried wikipedia.com, and on my system: man, info, apropos and emerge
(a gentoo distribution tool) for "sar". I did not find anything I
thought was relevant....

HI Mike,
Here's what I would try:
a) Are you sure that the disk activity light on the case is properly
wired to your MB? Is the light constantly on, or does it flicker?
b) unplug the network cable to insure that the disk activity isn't
caused by something on the network
c) If you are sufficiently patient and wait, does the activity stop (say
in 5-10 minute)?
d) What happens if you run "tail -f /var/log/messages" as root ? Lots
of messages here could cause disk activity.
I'm sure other folks with have other ideas, but that's my 2cents,
devalued for inflation.
HTH,
Andy
