| 10:33.58 | gregj | how can i list ppl who have mounted anything no my nfs server ? |
| 10:35.44 | wethrin | nfsstat? |
| 10:37.53 | antiphase | Unexport it and see who complains |
| 10:40.37 | adhoc | antiphase: =) |
| 10:40.48 | adhoc | gregj: whats in your /etc/export |
| 10:40.59 | wethrin | adhoc: that's an awfully personal question! |
| 10:41.03 | adhoc | gregj: that'd give you a head start as to what machines are allowed |
| 10:41.11 | adhoc | wethrin: perhaps |
| 10:41.28 | adhoc | gregj: then if you have access to the hosts that are mounting your NFS then you can have a look |
| 10:41.46 | adhoc | gregj: using lsof for anything that is in the path of the mounted file syste |
| 10:42.00 | adhoc | system, and also get the users that are running this processes |
| 10:42.05 | adhoc | easy |
| 10:45.58 | bilarh | this is stupid, t here must be an easier way :-) |
| 10:46.17 | antiphase | It's more difficult if you use anonuid, or all_squash |
| 10:50.17 | bilarh | what about /var/lib/nfs/rmtab |
| 10:52.15 | bilarh | http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Network_Other/nfs-files.html |
| 10:55.52 | eyore | The creators of big brother are going a show in holland where a terminally ill patient decides which one of three other patients get's her kidneys. |
| 10:55.56 | eyore | nice. |
| 10:56.04 | eyore | going = doing |
| 11:01.08 | bilarh | wtf, that's too morbid for me :-) |
| 11:02.02 | eyore | yeah, that's just too low |
| 11:02.42 | adhoc | big brother has gone down hill .. |

| 13:21.25 | JosefAssad | So, I'm shortlisted for a pretty damn good gig in London, and I'm wondering if I should bite the bullet and fly in for the interview... |
| 13:22.17 | adhoc | as opposed to bus, train, walk ? |
| 13:28.50 | JosefAssad | well, if you would be so kind as to look up what bus goes from Cairo to London, then I'd consider that option :) |
| 13:32.01 | clive-h | You could drive |
| 13:33.40 | wethrin | clive-h: It'd involve taking a train or a boat, though |
| 13:33.40 | JosefAssad | I hate 747s, clive-h. Give me stick shift any day. |
| 13:33.40 | wethrin | JosefAssad: They'll probably stick you in a 767 or 777 |
| 13:33.40 | wethrin | Or Airbus something |
| 13:33.40 | clive-h | Though it'd take a while by road and train |
| 13:33.40 | JosefAssad | Yeah, and I don'þ have that long. Interview's on 7th of June |
| 13:33.44 | clive-h | heh |
| 13:34.00 | JosefAssad | I knew a consultant who did work similar to what I do now, but focused at that time in Mongolia. |
| 13:34.07 | clive-h | 747-800 aren't too bad |
| 13:34.15 | JosefAssad | He tells stories of plugging holes in tupolevs with plastic coca cola bottles |
| 13:37.17 | JosefAssad | it'ß a good GBP 400 or so... |
| 13:37.43 | wethrin | Can you claim expenses? |
| 13:37.47 | clive-h | I'd imagine it wouldn't be cheap |
| 13:38.08 | JosefAssad | not on travel from outside the british isles |
| 13:38.34 | JosefAssad | but, this is a grade 10D at the BBC. Not washing dishes :) |
| 13:40.05 | wethrin | Doing what at the Beeb? |
| 13:40.12 | wethrin | And is it the Beeb real, or BBC Tech? |
| 13:40.22 | JosefAssad | Lead Technologist |
| 13:40.56 | wethrin | Mmm.....Pb |
| 13:41.22 | clive-h | bbc tech is Siemens SBS now (still in Maidenhead) |
| 13:41.31 | JosefAssad | Maidenhead? |
| 13:41.42 | JosefAssad | Is that good or bad? |
| 13:41.46 | wethrin | Meh |
| 13:41.55 | wethrin | There's some nice bits of Maidenhead. Mostly outside. |
| 13:41.55 | clive-h | About 25 miles west of London |
| 13:42.03 | hali | Good'ish, Maidenhead is quite well connected fiber wise |
| 13:42.14 | JosefAssad | Based in the Media Village, seems |
| 13:42.18 | JosefAssad | BBC Tech though, yes |
| 13:43.01 | clive-h | Siemens have 3 Data Centres there |
| 13:43.16 | clive-h | I contracted there for 3 months in 2005 |
| 13:43.31 | JosefAssad | Mind, this gig is more strategic than engineering (which is nice, since that is what I actually do) |
| 13:44.07 | clive-h | Good luck |
| 13:44.51 | JosefAssad | Still not sure whether to fly in or take it on the phone... blah |
| 13:45.17 | wethrin | Is this your first, second, third, etc. interview? |
| 13:45.39 | JosefAssad | final, it seems. |
| 13:46.16 | JosefAssad | If it wasn't, I wouldn't consider going though, that is certain. |
| 13:46.53 | wethrin | If it's about £400 for flights, I'd take it on the phone. They ought to understand |
| 13:47.02 | wethrin | If you can get flights for < £200, I'd go |
| 13:47.20 | JosefAssad | food for thought. Thanks for the opinion wethrin |
| 13:47.59 | wethrin | But then, I'm a poor stoodent. Your expense threshold might be different :) |
| 13:49.22 | JosefAssad | Yes, that is part of what is getting to me :) I can splash, just not entirely certain I should |
| 13:49.35 | wethrin | Depends how likely you are of getting the job :) |
| 13:49.47 | JosefAssad | Which reminds me, I need to do some work finding a repalcement for myself at Grameen eventually |
| 13:49.57 | JosefAssad | yes, that'ß the rub right there wethrin |
| 13:50.15 | JosefAssad | my 's' key sticks a bit. I look at what I type and feel like Smeagol |
| 13:51.22 | wethrin | :) |
| 13:54.39 | JosefAssad | and its private sector. Wouldn't mind a bit of the good old-time professionalism after couple of years with non-profits |
| 13:54.52 | wethrin | BBC Tech? Professional? |
| 13:55.19 | JosefAssad | wethrin: take my job and let'ß talk in a year :) |
| 13:55.26 | wethrin | okay :) |

Linux on his ipod and from-zero-to-properly-configured-nagios in one night, but he was seriously flaky. Standing behind you watching what you're doing, always opening up geeky and offtopc discussions, etc. |
