<TAG\b[^>]*>(.*?)</TAG> matches the opening and closing pair of a specific HTML tag. Anything between the tags is captured into the first backreference. The question mark in the regex makes the star lazy, to make sure it stops before the first closing tag rather than before the last, like a greedy star would do.
It looks like the beta version of Google’s new browser is available starting today. Haven’t spotted the beta download yet, but Google has attempted to explain the project in an online comic.
The browser’s called “Chrome.” The download page is supposedly here, but at the moment that just redirects to the main Google search page.
MIPS is short for Millions of Instructions Per Second. It is a measure for the computation speed of a program. Like most such measures, it is more often abused than used properly (it is very difficult to justly compare MIPS for different kinds of computers).
BogoMips are Linus’s own invention. The linux kernel version 0.99.11 (dated 11 July 1993) needed a timing loop (the time is too short and/or needs to be too exact for a non-busy-loop method of waiting), which must be calibrated to the processor speed of the machine. Hence, the kernel measures at boot time how fast a certain kind of busy loop runs on a computer. “Bogo” comes from “bogus”, i.e, something which is a fake. Hence, the BogoMips value gives some indication of the processor speed, but it is way too unscientific to be called anything but BogoMips.
The reasons (there are two) it is printed during boot-up is that a) it is slightly useful for debugging and for checking that the computers caches and turbo button work, and b) Linus loves to chuckle when he sees confused people on the news.
As performance engineer I come across various problems.� Here is one when the server crashed due to lack of free memory. See the error here.

To get a list of all running processes, enter the command “ps auxw”. You might also want to try using “ps auxf” (or “ps auxfw” if the lines get truncated) – this prints everything in a nice tree format that may give you a better understanding of how and why things are running.
To get a complete listing of all listening network services using netstat, enter: netstat -altpu
You can also get similar information using lsof by entering: lsof -i | egrep -i ‘LISTEN|UDP’
Pattern matching example:
1 | awk '/foo1/ && /foo2/ { print $1 }' |
To use shell variables simply do the following:
1 2 3 4 | foo1={pattern1} foo2={pattern2} awk "/$foo1/ && /$foo2/"'{ print $1 }' |
Crontab syntax :
A crontab file has five fields for specifying day , date and time followed by the command to be run at that interval.
* in the value field above means all legal values as in braces for that column.
The value column can have a * or a list of elements separated by commas. An element is either a number in the ranges shown above or two numbers in the range separated by a hyphen (meaning an inclusive range).
There are times when you may have to recover the MySQL root password because it was either forgotten or misplaced. The steps you need are:
1. Stop MySQL
[root@idoumo tmp]# service mysqld stop
Stopping MySQL: [ OK ]
2. Start MySQL in Safe mode with the safe_mysqld command and tell it not to read the grant tables with all the MySQL database passwords.
[root@idoumo tmp]# safe_mysqld –skip-grant-tables &
[root@idoumo tmp]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
3. Use the mysqladmin command to reset the root password. In this case, you are setting it to ack33nsaltf1sh.
[root@idoumo tmp]# mysqladmin -u root flush-privileges password “ack33nsaltf1sh”
4. Restart MySQL normally.
[root@idoumo tmp]# service mysqld restart
Stopping MySQL: 040517 09:39:38 mysqld ended [ OK ]
Starting MySQL: [ OK ]
[1]+ Done safe_mysqld –skip-grant-tables
The MySQL root user will now be able to manage MySQL using this new password.
Logical Volume Management provides benefits in the areas of disk management and scalability. It is not intended to provide fault-tolerance or extraordinary performance. For this reason, it is often run in conjunction with RAID, which can provide both of these. Read more…
Use the software cd 1 of 2 to recover root password:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | boot cdrom -s from ok prompt mkdir /tmp/a mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 /tmp/a cd /tmp/a/etc TERM=vt100; export TERM vi shadow |
Delete passwd entry (13 chars) in the line for root.
