I think that 'K' means no hardware virtualisation so all your vms will need special drivers or something I don't remember.

K = unlocked but no VT-d they do have VT-x tho.

I have the max 8gb on the board, is there any processor I can buy to fit this board that will give me a significant performance bump to put off building a whole new machine, or do I need to bite the bullet?

you will not get a significant performance bump from upgrading your processor

i dont or he doesnt? if you meant me, care to explain the difference? genuinely curious, not calling you out or anything

cifs isn't "linux-ified" smb

old rear end smb v1 was created at IBM way back then Microsoft took it and expanded on it and used for a long time. this was reverse engineered by the samba project and so became basis for many open sores implementations. Later Microsoft came up with an expanded version which they called CIFS. In their own words this is a "dialect" of smb with symlink and hardlink support and such and this has been in use from. Most notably it doesn't require NetBIOS anymore. They released specs of this so it could be implemented without reverse engineering.

since Vista/2008R1 iirc Microsoft uses SMB v2 which is much improved and much unlike smb v1/cifs

Most server and implementations can negotiate down if they come across a peer that doesn't support the higher versions

On Linux there was the smbfs driver for a long time provided by the samba project but that is fairly integrated into the whole samba toolset and isn't maintained anymore, on Linux you should use the "cifs" driver which is newer and actually maintained

i am not well-versed in matters of security, so i come here seeking wisdom. here's the scenario: you have a server running tomcat. it's got apache configured to do reverse-proxying and https-serving magic. is the traffic between apache and tomcat essentially available to anybody who can log onto the server?

one person is saying tomcat should be set up to do https, and then apache (also doing https) should reverse-proxy for tomcat, but that seems weird to me and kind of overkillish

thanks for any help you can give :tipshat:

this is true to a point because for most scenarios you'd need root access but why would you need to protect your webserver from your local users? the point being is that you should never allow untrusted users to log in anyway

Boot a live cd, mount the filesystems, get the data off, flatten & reinstall.

I've fixed all kinds of boot issues and yours is highly likely recoverable but it's too much :effort:

hey everybody,
I have a site hosted on windows 2012. Users that are on IE8 cannot view the SSL page that's on this site, they get "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".

- other SSL sites on other domains (example: amazon login page) load fine
- non-SSL sites on the same host load fine
- the users are in hospitals etc where ie8 is the only browser they can use

what do I do

easiest way for it babbies is run it through qualys

oh, graph, i see the context above now about the hospital with lovely clients... i was just shitposting. so the ask is specifically about IE8, is the hospital also only on XP still? cuz that's their fault that their clients are trash garbage, and if that was my env i would reluctantly enable RC4 but this is my personal website for posting images and other garbage apps just for me sooooooo

our dba is adding host entries to the dev server and then trying to ping from the desktop and wondering why it isn't working. kill me.

a dba a couple of jobs ago had one huge fuckoff tnsnames.ora with entries spanning multiple sites on multiple continents on a smb share that he mounted on all clients so they'd all have the same one. Of couse the server hosting the share failed one day breaking all clients in europe

you can use the TNS_ADMIN variable to point to a network location for your tnsnames file and its the only sane way to handle it honestly but lmbo if he didn't put it on its own share and set it to be always available offline or on a DFS share

while I can understand someone defaulting to Comcast whenever there's a story about bad modems, in this case it's a Dutch ISP.

also it's not DSL but cable.
