I need to setup a tunnel between two points with no encryption. I know this is generally done using L2TP but what would be the recommended daemon to use. I know of rp-l2tp which I have used in the past successfully but was wondering if there was anything else which may be considered a better choice?
Sean Preston's questions
I have a PostgreSQL 8.3 data directory backup. I need to copy a database from this backup into a new PostgreSQL instance. Due to problems with the old server I cannot do a pg_dump of the database.
I have figured out which directory is for the database in question. In MySQL for instance all you would normally do is shutdown the server, copy the directory across and restart it and the database would be available. Now this does not work with PostgreSQL and I suspect it is because the database is not listed in global/pg_database file. This file seems to be auto-generated when PostgreSQL starts so how do I tell the system that the database is there?
I am in the process of migrating a request tracker 3.6 instance from one server to another. The old server uses PostgreSQL and the new one will use MySQL. Is there a way to migrate the data from one database to another?
I have a Windows Server 2008 Standard server and a network of Windows XP machines and one Windows Vista machine. The Windows server is the primary Active Directory server for the network and all users have roaming profiles. All the Windows XP machines happily synchronise their profiles which includes the My Documents directory however the Windows Vista machine refuses to synchronise the My Documents data. I have done a fair amount of searching and as of yet have not found a workable solution. Any suggestions please?
