09:32.39 | mindbender | is it possible to view the highlights in irssi when it's been notified during afk |
09:33.29 | wethrin | yes. That's what your away log is for |
09:38.18 | mindbender | wethrin: but auto away hasn't been set thus AFK |
09:38.56 | wethrin | ah. Well. |
09:39.02 | wethrin | tough. You need to set your away log :) |
09:42.00 | Mohan | there is a script available (screen_away.pl) in irssi site which does that.. |
09:44.08 | mindbender | Mohan: lovely. thanks for that |
09:46.25 | Mohan | np |
09:57.45 | kjs | Anyone got any recommends on a decent priced NAS? |

10:09.24 | ChoHag | A woman tech support person is digging into the guts of the computer under my desk. |
10:11.46 | ChoHag | I know it's sexist to even think this, but that it's a female geek is incredibly arousing. |
10:11.54 | ChoHag | And she's hot. |
10:11.59 | ChoHag | curses his wedding band |
10:12.56 | mindbender | load screen_away.pl |
10:12.57 | mindbender | ops |

10:16.26 | ChoHag | She even gets angry properly. |
10:17.09 | ChoHag | Unfortunately I think the poor girl is destined to become a sysadmin. |
10:25.33 | z00dax | (sysadmin) or nothing! |
10:35.44 | bilarh | sysadmin can be good work too, though |
10:35.54 | bilarh | it can also be terrible :) |
10:36.11 | ChoHag | Usually terrible. |
10:36.28 | bilarh | well, for some people it works out really well |
10:36.36 | bilarh | i like a good mix myself |
10:36.46 | bilarh | i dont want to be a programmer anymore for example, well not full time |
10:37.01 | ChoHag | It's working very well for me. |
10:37.06 | ChoHag | But it's still a terrible job. |
10:37.12 | bilarh | sysadmin'ing is usually a good mix at least |
10:37.35 | bilarh | could be worse, you could be selling bananas from the back of a bike for a living |
10:37.39 | ChoHag | Hmm I think somebody needs to fix their intrusion detection rules. |
10:37.45 | ChoHag | Rule specification: File /etc/httpd/logs/access_log has changed |
10:37.53 | bilarh | hehe |
10:38.04 | bilarh | is that tripwire (or a derivative)? |
10:38.14 | bilarh | maybe they don't expect much traffic to the site :) |
10:38.28 | ChoHag | It's the "serverM intrusion detection system" |
10:38.35 | z00dax | do people still use tripwire ? I thought most had moved over to aide etc |
10:38.54 | bilarh | z00dax: i have no idea |
10:39.00 | ChoHag | Oh. Where it said 'of 78' I thought that was 78 emails, not 78 pages. |
10:39.01 | bilarh | is oldskool |
10:39.04 | z00dax | ChoHag: the intruder is accessing services on the machine :) |
10:39.06 | ChoHag | In 24 hours. |
10:39.49 | z00dax | s/the int/the potential int/ |
10:40.08 | ChoHag | I have received 1900 emails in 24 hours. |
10:40.35 | ChoHag | Why does no company ever seem to think that's a bad idea? |
10:40.55 | bilarh | chohag: i often wonder the same |
10:41.01 | z00dax | 1900 real emails typed out by real people isnt ideal . |
10:41.19 | bilarh | i get so much system generated crap here that i had to fight back by adding rules to move them straight to trash |
10:41.33 | z00dax | its not uncommon for me to get 2 or even 3 times that email in a day, but a very large portion of that tends to be notify / generated emails that can be handled in a few minutes |
10:41.35 | ChoHag | They shouldn't be sent. |
10:41.47 | bilarh | z00dax: why do you need them in the firs tplace? |
10:41.55 | bilarh | z00dax: surely you just want to know if there's a problem |
10:41.56 | ChoHag | The scripts that generate them should only send them if they have something important to say, otherwise the important information gets ignored. |
10:42.03 | bilarh | I hate the "everything is OK" emails every two minutes |
10:42.10 | z00dax | bilarh: i prefer stuff coming to me, rather than me going looking for stuff :) but sieve helps |
10:42.38 | bilarh | hmm, everybody's different i suppose |
10:43.01 | bilarh | i just can't deal with the noise... it builds up a resistance so that I end up dismissing emails from cron@xxxx or whatever without even looking propery at them |
10:43.10 | z00dax | some of this is nagios etc, but some is just change stuff from various buildsystems and bugzilla's etc. |
10:43.24 | bilarh | nagios emails is a pain too |
10:43.30 | bilarh | i've stopped it emailing me |
10:43.31 | z00dax | but as you said, much of this is filtered into the right place - in many cases the trashbox. |
10:43.53 | bilarh | we have a big monitor which displays the current status of the site instead |
10:44.00 | z00dax | the other thing is that i do most of my email either inbound commute or the outbound commute |
10:44.06 | z00dax | where interwebs are rarely ever functional |
10:44.24 | bilarh | ah in that case you have a case :) |
