I just tried out sshfs and it works great. yum install fuse-sshfs is all that is required to get it going on FC5. Thanks Scott for an excellent presentation and making me aware of Fuse and sshfs. -- Bill

Expanding hard drive to utilized unused space
by John Lange 04 May '06

04 May '06

I have a system built on a Linux raid 1 using ext3. When the system was created there was a large amount of space left available on both of the raid 1 disks for future expansion of a partition as required. I know expanding the file system using LVM is relatively trivial but this system was not built using LVM. Is it possible to expand the partitions, expand the RAID 1 to fill the partitions, and then expand the ext3 file system on the RAID1? -- John Lange OpenIT ltd. www.Open-IT.ca (204) 885 0872 VoIP, Web services, Linux Consulting, Server Co-Location

by gedetil＠cs.umanitoba.ca 02 May '06

02 May '06

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, May 9. The meeting topic for this month is as follows: A MythTV Implementation MythTV is a popular open-source TV-recording package. Combined with the right hardware and configured correctly, it can take the stress out of keeping up with your favourite shows, despite frequent schedule changes and re-runs. Kevin McGregor will talk about his experiences setting up MythTV on Ubuntu Linux. The group holds its general meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend. ********************************************************************** Please note our meeting location: The IBM offices, at 400 Ellice Ave. (between Edmonton and Kennedy). When you arrive, you will have to sign in at the reception desk, and then wait for someone to take you (in groups) to the meeting room. Please try to arrive by about 7:15pm, so the meeting can start promptly at 7:30pm. Don't be late, or you may not get in. (But don't come too early either, since security may not be there to let you in before 7:15 or so.) Limited parking is available for free on the street, or in a lot across Ellice from IBM, for $1.00 for the evening. Indoor parking is also available nearby, at Portage Place, for $3.00 for the evening. Bicycle parking is available in a bike rack under video surveillance located behind the building on Webb Place. ********************************************************************** For more information about MUUG, and its monthly meetings, check out their Web server: http://www.muug.mb.ca/ Also note that MUUG maintains two mailing lists, called "muug-announce" and "roundtable". If you're not already on these lists, we encourage you to subscribe now: http://www.muug.mb.ca/mailman/listinfo/ The "muug-announce" list is used for monthly meeting announcements (such as this one) as well as other important announcements of interest to MUUG members. The "rountable" list is meant to be a forum for follow-ups to topics discussed at the meetings, or for round-table-style discussion on other topics that come up between meetings. Of course, for this to be effective, we need to reach a certain critical mass. So, please subscribe, and stay involved! -- Gilbert E.
