Post #148,717 by cforde 3/26/04 2:49:16 AM Reply	test inside the test initiative. do you have it? I'm betting there's more to this test than what the words in the assignment say. You were asked to put up a web page. I take that to mean a web page you put together. Not someone else's page. I kinda like Barry's resume idea. But since they explicitly said up front they didn't want resumes sent to them, I'd hold off until asked. For you, something from an unusual perspective, maybe a picture of earthrise over the moon, and some text on what you thought of the test so far. Fancy it up. You're trying to impress these people. Have fun, Carl Forde
Post #148,720 by deSitter 3/26/04 4:16:04 AM Reply	I thought of it exactly opposite Don't you think I thought of doing something clever? I mean, it takes 2 minutes to download Apache and 3 minutes to install it and 5 seconds to start. The purpose of this step is to see if a person is familiar with "cron world". My attitude is - do exactly as told. This is no place for showing off. I think these people are serious. But, we'll see. This is the way you should hire people, I know that. -drl

Yeah, that and a digital certificate. - (jb4) - (14) - March 23, 2004, 06:41:28 PM EST

Easy peasy. - (admin) - (13) - March 23, 2004, 06:44:55 PM EST

Just found out that SuSE 9.1's got it - (jb4) - March 24, 2004, 05:15:12 PM EST

And we see that their filter worked - (ben_tilly) - (7) - March 23, 2004, 07:56:49 PM EST

two implementations of man, more or less - (boxley) - (1) - March 23, 2004, 08:54:24 PM EST

$ echo $PAGER - (Arkadiy) - (3) - March 24, 2004, 01:39:25 PM EST

That can't be it - (ben_tilly) - (1) - March 24, 2004, 02:30:51 PM EST

Then you have sensible default - (Arkadiy) - March 24, 2004, 02:48:22 PM EST

How ironic your .sig is in this thread.....**giggle** -NT - (jb4) - March 24, 2004, 05:18:08 PM EST

As I already admitted to Scott... - (jb4) - March 24, 2004, 05:17:10 PM EST

Is this for real? - (deSitter) - (1) - March 23, 2004, 08:17:25 PM EST

Unless the position is already filled, it should be real - (ben_tilly) - March 23, 2004, 08:58:08 PM EST

would look into it but - (boxley) - March 23, 2004, 08:57:17 PM EST

You don't qualify - (ben_tilly) - (34) - March 23, 2004, 10:46:43 PM EST

Maybe I do, maybe I don't - (orion) - (33) - March 24, 2004, 10:21:51 AM EST

If you think that you qualify... - (ben_tilly) - (8) - March 24, 2004, 11:04:14 AM EST

Why be proven wrong when you don't have to? -NT - (mmoffitt) - March 24, 2004, 11:08:07 AM EST

I have to do something first - (orion) - (6) - March 24, 2004, 05:04:43 PM EST

Let's just say this - (ben_tilly) - (5) - March 24, 2004, 05:22:10 PM EST

You may be right - (orion) - (4) - March 24, 2004, 07:54:06 PM EST

Not odd at all - (ben_tilly) - (3) - March 24, 2004, 09:32:51 PM EST

I may have had them at one time or thought I did - (orion) - (2) - March 24, 2004, 11:48:33 PM EST

Your confidence level is your problem. - (ben_tilly) - (1) - March 25, 2004, 02:34:24 PM EST

Not my only problem - (orion) - March 25, 2004, 06:46:49 PM EST

Do you know how to obtain your SSH key? - (pwhysall) - (1) - March 24, 2004, 11:51:29 AM EST

Re: Uh, riiiiight. - (deSitter) - March 24, 2004, 12:28:24 PM EST

Oh but you are a meanie, nothing you can do about it. - (orion) - (17) - March 24, 2004, 05:21:52 PM EST

You've googled. - (pwhysall) - (16) - March 24, 2004, 05:48:12 PM EST

tad obvious I would say :-) -NT - (boxley) - (1) - March 24, 2004, 06:04:30 PM EST

To a genuine UNIX admin, yes. - (pwhysall) - March 24, 2004, 06:07:38 PM EST

So you say - (orion) - (13) - March 24, 2004, 07:57:58 PM EST

In that, you're almost definitely wrong - (ben_tilly) - (6) - March 24, 2004, 09:26:27 PM EST

actually you can do both - (boxley) - (3) - March 24, 2004, 09:30:18 PM EST

I was wondering about that... - (ben_tilly) - (1) - March 24, 2004, 09:36:54 PM EST

I should have been more specific. - (pwhysall) - March 25, 2004, 01:57:09 AM EST

PAM does that too, IIRC - (admin) - March 24, 2004, 10:50:56 PM EST

That is the way I do things - (orion) - March 24, 2004, 11:55:04 PM EST

There are ways to actually have both. - (folkert) - March 25, 2004, 08:22:18 PM EST

Norm there was enough misinformation in yer post - (boxley) - (5) - March 24, 2004, 09:26:54 PM EST

There is always Misinformation in my posts - (orion) - (4) - March 24, 2004, 11:56:37 PM EST

You claim you didnt lookup the answers - (boxley) - (3) - March 25, 2004, 08:23:11 AM EST

Fine if it shuts you up - (orion) - (2) - March 25, 2004, 06:43:29 PM EST

Actually you are correct. - (folkert) - (1) - March 25, 2004, 08:30:20 PM EST

Re: Your public key? - (deSitter) - (10) - March 24, 2004, 06:11:23 PM EST
