Hi Everyone, I administer about 40 FreeBSD systems remotely, meaning they are far away, and the people at the location (if there even are any) usually are not experienced at all with Unix. So naturally I try to address as many administrative issues as possible remotely. There are a number of interesting topics, such as: - remote OS upgrade - software distribution tactics - dealing with file system problems - dealing with remote vinum - building reliable systems etc. pp. I am pretty sure that there are many others in a similar situation, be it the server system in the basement, or the one or two systems you co-locate elsewhere, or even a similar setups as mine with a whole network of 'remote' systems. So I wonder if there would be interest in a mailing list that deals with such issues, and where people could discuss various strategies. And if there is enough interest, would it be possible to host this list at FreeBSD.org, and how would that be done?
