8/4 Anyone knows how to make ~mehlhaff/tmp/motd,v start updating again?
\_ Ask him?
\_ Here, now you can run your own private script. Don't forget to
mkdir /csua/tmp/username. The next thing that can be done to this
is to prevent check-ins if the motd is about like 100 KB (someone
puts binary junk in it):
#!/bin/sh
cd /csua/tmp/$USER
while [ 1 ]
do
co -q -f -l motd
cp /etc/motd.public motd
ci -q -m_ motd
sleep 120
done
\_ Or make it check the output of `file /etc/motd.public` ro make
sure it says ASCII.
\_ It is good that mehlhaff is making publically accessible archive.
Think what will happen to the quota if everyone is to maintain
his own.
\_ as a data point, I have been maintaining my own using this
exact script since April 4 this year, and it is now 9MB
(including when binary files were put in /etc/motd).
Nevertheless, I support some common archive that can be
reliably restarted whenever soda is rebewted.
I do notice, also, the check-ins taking longer these days
(longer than 2 seconds). I do support some common archive
that can be reliably restarted whenever soda is rebewted. |
