FUSE - Filesystem in Userspace

FUSE is a Linux kernel module also available for FreeBSD, OpenSolaris and Mac OS X that allows non-privileged users to create their own file systems without the need to write any kernel code. This is achieved by running the file system code in user space, while the FUSE module only provides a "bridge" to the actual kernel interfaces. FUSE was officially merged into the mainstream Linux kernel tree in kernel version 2.6.14.

You need to use SSHFS to access to a remote filesystem through SSH

Step # 1: Download and Install FUSE

Browse fuse home page and download latest source code tar ball.

Untar source code:

# tar -zxvf fuse-2.6.5.tar.gz

Advanced DNS Server Options

2011-12-13T20:49:00.000-08:00

Disable Recursion—Prevents the DNS server from forwarding queriesto other DNS servers. Select this check box on a DNS server that onlyprovides resolution services to other DNS servers, because unauthorizedusers can use recursion to overload a DNS server’s resources and therebydeny the DNS Server service to legitimate users.

BIND Secondaries—During zone transfer, DNS servers normally utilizea fast transfer method that involves compression. If UNIX servers runninga version of Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) prior to 4.9.4 arepresent, zone transfers will not work. These servers use a slower uncompresseddata transfer method. To enable zone transfer to these servers,select this check box.

Fail on Load if Bad Zone Data—When selected, DNS servers will notload zone data that contains certain types of errors. The DNS service checksname data using the method selected in the Name Checking drop-downlist on this tab.

How to Making Realistic Chinese Ceramic Pot in 3ds max

2011-11-15T21:55:00.000-08:00

I hope to cover all the basic steps of creating ceramic pot such as modeling, UVW mapping, texturing, lighting and rendering from this tutorial. However this is not a step by step tutorial and I hope you are having the basic knowledge on 3d max as well as on Photoshop (for creating textures).

Go to front viewport and draw the one half of the cross-section of the pot you want to model using a line. No need to make it smooth or add more details, you can add them later.

Types of Zone Transfers

2011-11-15T20:08:00.000-08:00

Full Zone
TransferIncremental Zone
TransferSecure Zone Transfers

The original specifications for DNS supported only the full zone transferprocess, in which the master server transmits the entire zone database to thatzone’s secondary servers. When a new secondary DNS server is added to thenetwork, it uses AXFR to obtain a full copy of the zone’s resource records.AXFR was the only zone transfer process supported by Windows NT 4.0 DNS.

Particles in Flash

2011-11-14T21:43:00.000-08:00

Learn how to create a cool particle effect using action script in Flash. Your particle system basically consists of two parts: the particle object, and the renderer object. The idea is that you have a number of abstract particles that get fed into the renderer, which renders them in different ways. Abstract means that the particle is very generic, and does not extends anything; you can not add the object to a display list, you do not have preset hitTest functions, etc.

The renderer should use an iterative method to through the particles and render them one by one, or apply some other effect on them.

As I have mentioned, there are many different particle effects that you can apply, but for the simplicity of this first tutorial, we will have the renderer draw out a single white pixel.

Used to your own image of background from the list above and open it in Photoshop. Double click on the layer (if you don't see the palette Layers go to Window > Layers) and rename it on BACKGROUND. It's really useful habit to name all your layers because once your manips become more complicated it will be easier to navigate through them.

Before you'll add woman and dinosaur let's focus on slight adjusting of the background. You'll desaturate it and make it bit lighter in this step.

Let's start with desaturating. Add new adjustment layer Hue/Saturation. You can find the button "Add new fill or adjustment layer" in the bottom part of the palette Layers.

3 Mail Server Atricles For Sytem Administrator

2011-11-03T23:37:00.000-07:00

A mail server is also known as a mail transfer agent or MTA, a mail transport agent, a mail router or an Internet mailer.It is an application that receives incoming e-mail from local users and remote senders and forwards outgoing e-mail for delivery. A computer dedicated to running such applications is also called a mail server.

The system uses SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) or ESMTP (extended SMTP) for sending e-mail, and either POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3) or IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) for receiving e-mail. Now lets see,
