Our experiecne was really bizare (or so we thought) Unplug trunk to switch1 and SAN node 2 became unreachable. Then reverse the process, Unplug trunk to switch 2 and San node 1 became unreachable. However a power cycle or unplugged ethernet interface produced the expected failover result. At...

It looks like it was a design / config issue It turned out to be a spanning tree problem. We had portfast enabled on the iSCSi vlan interfaces. Disabling portfast inconjuction with a trunk cross connect between both switches, resolved the issue. Now when we unplug the trunk connection to the...

HP 4300 SAN ALB failover issue I believe ALB is designed and supposed to work differently than what I am currently experiencing in my testing. We have a P4300 SAN connected to two Cisco 2960 switches. Each switch is connected to the network core through a trunk connection. Each NIC on each SAN...

Many thanks Annihilannic, Your regex example worked perfectly. ("\x8d","?") cheers

I have an input file called parcel that has fixed length lines of 810 charters long. I have a created the following script to delimit each line into comma delimted fixed legnth fields. It seems to be working fine until line 129048, at which point there appears to be an unexpected formting...

Had this same problem and just figured it out. Something to the effect of when restoring or redirecting a restore job to a new mailbox you must first login to that mailbox. I'm not really sure why you need to do this, but I do know it works. Login in to the mailbox first using the backup exec...

>What OS and DNS server software are you using? Microsoft NT 4.0 SP6 / Microsoft DNS This box does nothing more than server up internal DNS. No other servers running on this box (http, smtp etc ..) I thought it might be some sort of DDOS attack. Could never verify it. I guess its possible it...

localtime() function was the key $modtime = localtime($mtime); Complete script below: #!/usr/bin/perl print &quot;Content-type: text/html\n\n&quot;; print &quot;<h1>Statistics </h1>&quot;; use File::Listing; for (parse_dir(`ls -l`)) { ($name, $type, $size, $mtime, $mode) = @$_; @log...

Paul, I'll check out the stat function. thanks. What I want to do is output $mtime into a more reader friendly output. the script does this for $mtime 1054750200 this is what I want : Jun 4 11:10 or something close to it. cheers -Danny dan@snoboarder.net

I am hopeful that someone might be able to give me a pointer. I am listing file atttibutes using the &quot;ls -l&quot; command. I need to alter the mode time ($mtime) into as more usable format. Can someone recomend an approach to this ? The script I'm using is below. #!/usr/bin/perl print...

In case anyone might be interested http://www.hypermail.org/ Did the trick ! Note: its not perl, but it worked -Danny dan@snoboarder.net

I am looking for a way to archive a given mailbox and make the archive viewable via a web browser. This doesn't sound to difficult in nature. However my perl scripting skills are basic and I don't really want to re-invent the wheel. Can someone point me in the right direction as I am lost. I...

I have been tasked with finding a way to post the contents of a general mailbox to a local intranet server where the e-mail contents (messages) could be viewed as a webpage. On the intranet box I would create a symbolic link from /var/mail/user_box to somewhere under the http document root...
