toddf: hey todd, regarding conserver, i'm assuming it is possible to define multiple hosts in console.cf with different masters, but for the life of me, i can't get it to work.  I always have to do "console -M <master> <console>".  Shouldn't "-M <master>" be optional if I define multiple master's and console can find the right one depending on <console>?
from console(1):
       -r         Display daemon versions.  The console client connects to each server to request its version information.
"each server" -- that is my problem right now, it only sees one server "localhost"
$ console -r
127.0.0.1: version `conserver.com version 8.1.16'
$
toddf: if you could share some part of your console.cf, that'd rock :)
I regret to say while I have two conserver servers, I've yet to link them in any meaningful way. when I figure it out I'll be sure to share
toddf: ah ok, tnx
hrm.
hey - up_the_irons - is there a good way to tell how much bandwidth I've used *this month* with cacti?
err - how much data I've *transferred* I guess.
cacti? can't you just parse the webserver logs?
cacti is what we are billed with
if we go over etc
Plus, not all my B/W is web serving
hm.. can anyone recommend good hardware/software solution for doing QoS, with the possibility of good VoIP performance (for less than $100 -- preferably free)?
linux tc seems like it would be a drag to work with, and I'm not extremely thrilled with the performance of my routeros box
whoa, what was that about
