Some keywords first, to help me find this back next time I'm Googling...
sendmail submit.mc msp /etc/hosts localhost.localdomain 127.0.0.1
Problem: appearance of localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) in Received lines for mail originating on a CentOS 4.6 server.

So you spend vast sums on a Thecus N5200 Pro NAS RAID box with a view to making a resilient backup of all your donkey porn DVD rips and stuff, and partitioning it into a single vast RAID array takes 16 HOURS.
But then you discover that NFS / CIFS / SMB don't allow certain characters in filenames, and whilst investigation alternatives (AFP among them at this stage) you discover iSCSI.

.... is there an unfulfilled need for a very simple OSX menu-bar app that displays at a glance the available space on your hard drive?

At random intervals (running the last beta before release of Leopard 10.5) the Macbook pro pipes up and states
"Sanity Badger Cup is now available"
or at least thats waht it sounds like :)
Not sure what app is causing this or what app it really means...anyone?

I sincerely hope this will just go away when I upgrade to Leopard some time soon after tomorrow, but it's bugging me anyway because it don't make no sense.

On the new mastermaster site (at mastermaster.org.uk/new3.php currently, but don't expect it to be working all the time as it's a 'live dev' environment) there's a link labelled 'random'.

I first suspected there was a problem with this card when trying to install Centos 4.4 on a twin Opteron 2.4GHz H8DA8 Supermicro box with 4GB RAM, using an LVM / partition on top of a RAID 1 of 2x Maxtor 250GB SATA II disks.
Formatting the / partition seemed to take forever, with significant pauses when writing the inode table. OK, it's a large partition (200+GB) but hangs for tens of seconds and a collapse in responsiveness led me to believe that the installer had crashed.
It is only after a lot of experimenting (including trying Centos 4.4, 4.5, openSUSE 10.2 and lastly RHEL AS 4 Update 5 - yes, I know that's the same as Centos 4.5 but just in case... also different disks - Western Digital Seagate - and booting SMP kernel v nonSMP) that I've come to realise there's a more fundamental problem.

In Hans Baumann's book "Lion Gate and Labyrinth" (trans. Stella Humphries, line drawings by Hans Peter Renner, Oxford University Press 1967), which relates the stories of Schliemann's discovery of Troy and Evans' discovery of the Palace of Knossos, there are a number of line illustrations of Cretan seal stones.
These have no cross references to the originals so I wonder if anyone recognises where these three are from...

Can anyone recommend a low cost, secure, web hosting company? Does it make any difference where/which country they are based?
Currently only have two domains (only one is actively used for my billycan website) to which I might be adding two in the near future.
