Today's examples of MX entries are all drawn from domains presented toour mailer in MAIL FROM 's over the past 28 days or so. ' sdig ' is ascript that does a ' dig +short '. Presented in illustrated form:
; sdig mx oakhavenresort.com.10 mail.10 mail.oakhavenresort.com.
It's interesting that they get this simultaneously wrong and right. Isthe plain ' mail. ' supposed to be in some other domain?

Every system administrator has little twitches, behaviors that strikeoutside observers as somewhere between odd and superstitious. Sometimesthese are just habits, but sometimes they have interesting storiesbehind them.
One of my twitches is that when I use su , I always type ' /bin/su '(or on some irritating systems, ' /usr/bin/su '), not plain ' su '.(By now it's a reflex.)
This habit originated in a bit of security advice. The story goes
So that I don't have to try to remember it or look it up next timearound, here is how to generate a real self-signed SSL certificate withOpenSSL. The basic but incomplete incantation is:

Solaris 9's slow patch installs
Yesterday was my first time installing the Solaris 9 recommended patchset on a production machine; we rolled it onto a basically unpatchedserver. Because it was a server, I did it in single user mode (thepatch set recommends this, as some patches in the patch set sayexplicitly to apply them in single-user mode).
I already knew that installing the patch set was achingly slow on mytest machine, but my test machine is an Ultra 10 so I wasn'tsurprised. The machine from
Multiprocessors are a leaky abstraction
Earlier this week, the story started rumbling through the usual places that using hyperthreading on Intel CPUs could cause seriousperformance problems in some applications, like Microsoft SQL Server.The current best guess of the cause is cache thrashing due toHyperthreaded processors sharing L1 and L2 cache. If a process thathammers the cache is scheduled onto one logical processor of a HTpair, it will destroy the performance of anything running on theother logical CPU (I'm summarizing from here ).
