Learn About Me!

I'm a generalist Systems Administrator. I design and implement systems that rely on Windows and Linux servers, wired and wireless networks, storage of all types, and insert_buzzword();

I Am a Bad Person =(

I do not intend to offend, but at times I get carried away with my own humor, puns, and self assigned eloquence. If I offended you publicly, tell me and I will repent publicly.

Hire Me!

I am an independent consultant that owns and operates his own LLC in the US of A. Check out my careers.StackOverflow.com profile or you can find me on LinkedIn.

As a Systems Engineer, I work to enable you and your business to help yourselves through technology with the aid of my analysis, design, and implementation skills.

I can help your business help itself. I will analyze your present state, learn about your hoped-for future and get the two to meet using technology as a framework and excellent workflows as the "meat".

My Gravatar is from Troy Snow's photography. Check him out at his Flickr page and tell him I sent you: http://www.flickr.com/photos/troysnow/ . Even though we tend to use the same goofy kitten face as an avatar, we are not the same person and have no affiliation. Other than good taste in avatars, anyway.

comment su does not change user but does not respond with an error either
Not sure why that would be considered patronizing, for I certainly wouldn't have taken it that way. I mean I can if you want, but that wouldn't be my first inclination. =) Anyway, yes, I forgot to state that I did that just to make sure I was who I thought I was, and I was still root and not the user I was trying to switch to.

comment In bash, what are potential negative consequences of pausing a process with control-z?
Yes, screen is always a good way to go. I am not sure how to respond to your name, however.

comment Can I pipe stdout on one server to stdin on another server?
Very good to know. This is good if the physical connection is trusted like perhaps a backup network or if the connection is already tunneled.

@jofel Add that as an answer too! I'm intrigued by socat - never heard of it before.

comment How can I limit the output speed of stdout?
Noted. I do so wish that rsync was a viable solution in this rather limited situation I find myself in. =|

comment How can I limit the bandwidth used by a process?
This is actually the answer I think I'll use! However, it's not exactly an answer to the specific question I originally asked. Alas, the question kind of morphed but was still focused on limiting the network speed of a process. However, you can contribute to this new question I asked: unix.stackexchange.com/q/34174/4232
