Hi,
I got a WD 1T drive to use in a new machine for my dad. I didn't

Ah, instead I should use

Hi,
I don't remember seeing this message on previous openssh updates:
>>> Installing (1 of 1) net-misc/openssh-5.3_p1-r1
* >>> SetUID: [chmod go-r] /usr/lib64/misc/ssh-keysign ...
[ ok ]
* Remember to merge your config files in /etc/ssh/ and then
* reload sshd: '/etc/init.d/ssh

Hi,
I'm starting to put together a server-type machine with multiple purposes:
1) MythTV server
2) General backups for another fast machine I'm going to build
3) Wife's new desktop
Since all of these requirements are pretty modest but I want high
reliability I'd like to do software RAID wit

I'm trying to blacklist firewire-ohci and firewire-core but I'm doing
something wrong.
I added then to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, ran update-modules and then
rebooted but they continue to load. What am I doing wrong?
blacklist eth1394
blacklist firewire-ochi
blacklist firewire-core
