Updates

I have been attending a few interviews, and most notably the ones from Limespot LLC, yes, the guys behind LimeWire P2P client. Also from Cable and Wireless as a Tier2 tech. Well, I understood that for the past few years a lot of things has changed and a lot of new standards, applications etc came into the picture. I am getting a little rusty here feels like a mammoth in present time. So, for the past few days most of the time was spent on reading up on new technologies, and missed out parts of some industry standard applications etc.

Most notably the ones I came across are, like LVS, RedHat GFS, Bind Views and Dynamic DNS updates using ISC DHCPd. I am simply posting some links here so that you can understand where to go in case if you need help regarding this also as a future reference for me.

For a starter you can find ALL types of DNS records here. and a few additions here. I hope this will come in handy.
Here is the link to setting up a LVS cluster using CentOS or RHEL and you can find instructions for a redhat clustersuite based cluster here.
Information on setting up GFS (Global Filesystem) is available here and the process of integrating it with GNBD is here.
Information on the Views feature of Bind can be found here with easy examples.
Integrating ISC DHCPd and Bind for setting up a Dynami DNS update method could be found here. This link was especially useful because the man pages and other documents do not touch this area deeply.

So, I guess thats it for now.
Ciao!
