comment Writing /dev/random to file?
@BobRoberts I has similar adventures, with similar outcomes. I also used to ssh into colleagues' linux workstations and cat DTMF tones to the internal speaker, then play a busy tone, so it sounded like their PC was trying to FAX something out. Ah, good times.

comment Browser fails to reach any host on Solaris 8
Solaris 10 will work just fine, and yes, if you can find a SCSI CD-ROM drive, you can install Solaris 10 that way. Another way might be to set up a jumpstart server on another computer and install Solaris 10 that way.

comment Executing a shell script from remote server on local machine
put it on a filesystem shared via NFS. Mount the NFS filesystem on the local machine, and run /path/to/nfs/mount/script.sh from the local machine. The local machine's /test.x file will be removed.

comment Determining cause of Linux kernel panic
Do you have the option of downrevving your kernel to a 3.0.x kernel? Instead of 3.2? What kind of machine is it? and how much and what kind of memory do you have?
