13:42.09 | Cope | hi gregj |
13:42.12 | Cope | erm gw280 |
13:43.13 | hali | Cope: rpm -i and one script, or they even have a apt repo if your on a .deb distro |
13:43.29 | hali | trivial |
13:43.32 | Cope | cool |
13:43.44 | Cope | and free for non-commercial use |
13:43.51 | hali | free for all uses |
13:43.55 | Cope | otherwise it's SEone |
13:43.56 | hali | you can even redistribute it |
13:43.57 | Cope | oh? |
13:44.00 | Cope | oh cool |
13:44.18 | hali | you know the limitation of XE right? |
13:44.22 | Cope | nope |
13:44.28 | Cope | never used it before |
13:44.34 | hali | max 1 cpu used, max 1gb ram used, max 4gb tablespace allowed |
13:44.51 | AndyMillar | that's not too bad though |
13:44.54 | Cope | ok |
13:45.06 | Cope | otherwise it's SEone.... ? |
13:45.24 | gw280 | Cope: what thinkpad would you recommend for a person who uses it generally for word processing, a bit of movie watching, and general lightweight use? |
13:45.25 | hali | seone yes |
13:45.28 | gw280 | Cope: budget up to £700 |
13:46.59 | Cope | gosh i don't know - i'm out of date on thinkpads |
13:47.03 | Cope | i had a t43 i think |
13:47.04 | dick_turpin | Cope: Does it have to be an IBM? |
13:47.26 | Cope | gw280: i've been very happy with my dell laptop |
13:47.29 | Cope | best i've ever had |
13:47.29 | dick_turpin | Oops I meant gw280 |
13:47.47 | gw280 | dick_turpin: he wants a reliable laptop. I only recommend thinkpads on the grounds that they are the only machines that can handle the amount of abuse I put them through |
13:48.04 | Cope | nods at gw280 thinkpads are good and reliable |
13:48.26 | dick_turpin | gw280: K I take it you want 'new' |
13:48.33 | gw280 | dick_turpin: not necessarily |
13:48.44 | dick_turpin | gw280: 1 sec then |
13:49.42 | [Discordian] | yeah oracleXE is easy and free |
13:50.48 | dick_turpin | <PROTECTED> |
13:51.12 | gw280 | how much. |
13:51.31 | gw280 | given that on ebay you can get a T60 with a 1.8GHz dual core CPU and lots more RAM/hdd space for about 300 |
13:52.32 | dick_turpin | gw280: Well price to me would be £120 + £10 del if your interested I can give you the contact details although generally they don't sell to the public |

14:01.19 | hali | or sl300 if you want a slightly smaller |
14:01.20 | gw280 | hali: it's not a real thinkpad, it's an imposter |

22:23.53 | hali | hm, small scale BGP is tricky |
22:24.58 | hali | got two routers each peering with an isp, how do i get failover between the two routers in the firewalls behind them_ |
22:25.48 | kjs | hali: iv wanted to play with BGP |
22:25.57 | hali | im thinking either using HSRP in the routers or just having simple sla monitors in the ASA firewalls |
22:26.58 | hali | two default routes, the primary with an sla tracker that pings the bgp peer of isp1, second route is just to router2 but with a higher metric |
22:27.25 | hali | BGP is way cool to play with |
22:27.39 | rhowe | hali: I use OSPF for that at work |
22:27.46 | z00dax | fun |
22:28.00 | hali | i was considering having a ospf/eigrp cloud between the routers and firewalls |
22:28.07 | rhowe | hali: DSL gateway runs Linux, LES10 gateway is a Cisco 2611XM and the two internal routers are OpenBSD |
22:28.10 | z00dax | playing with BGP should be made illegal for people who dont know what they are doing, specially when there is an upstream and a downstream |
22:28.18 | rhowe | hali: So I have quagga, IOS and OpenOSPFd |
22:28.26 | hali | but ospf sort of just adds complexity that could go wrong |
22:28.31 | z00dax | rhowe: and way too much time on your hands! |
