Apache is currently serving more than 400 million websites around the world, which includes almost 60% of active domains.</p><h3>Related Posts</h3> <ol> <li><a href="http://www.geekride.com/zombie-process-defunct-linux/" rel="bookmark">Zombie Process</a><!-- (3)--></li> <li><a href="http://www.geekride.com/orphan-zombie-process/" rel="bookmark">Orphan Process</a><!-- (2)--></li> </ol><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/GeekRide-LinuxTipsTricksHacks/~4/95ApA_5GYNw" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.geekride.com/apache-version-released/feed/ 0 http://www.geekride.com/apache-version-released/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/GeekRide-LinuxTipsTricksHacks/~3/2UgAvRJNFJM/ http://www.geekride.com/creation-of-the-xbox-360-and-ps3-in-a-pc-case-mod/#comments Fri, 09 Sep 2011 20:20:36 +0000 Napster http://www.geekride.com/?p=1343 <p style="text-align: justify;">Though this is not my work, but still I would like to share this with all other fellows so that they could take the benefit of Tim's hard work.</p><h3>Related Posts</h3> No related posts.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/GeekRide-LinuxTipsTricksHacks/~4/2UgAvRJNFJM" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.geekride.com/creation-of-the-xbox-360-and-ps3-in-a-pc-case-mod/feed/ 0 http://www.geekride.com/creation-of-the-xbox-360-and-ps3-in-a-pc-case-mod/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/GeekRide-LinuxTipsTricksHacks/~3/ycIFfxph4bw/ http://www.geekride.com/zombie-process-defunct-linux/#comments Tue, 22 Mar 2011 09:32:12 +0000 Napster http://www.geekride.com/?p=1266 <p style="text-align: justify;">It's a pretty much common question asked in most of the interviews related to Linux, and most of the time people got it confused with Orphan Process. But these two are totally different from each other. A Zombie Process is nearly the same thing which we see in lot of horror movies. Like the dead people which don't have any life force left, Zombie processes are the dead processes sitting in the process table and doing nothing.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">To explain this in much better way, "Zombie process or defunct process is a process that have completed the execution, have released all the resources (CPU, memory) but still had an entry in the process table."</p> <h3>Related Posts</h3> <ol> <li><a href="http://www.geekride.com/orphan-zombie-process/" rel="bookmark">Orphan Process</a><!-- (7)--></li> <li><a href="http://www.geekride.com/apache-version-released/" rel="bookmark">Apache v2.4 Released</a><!-- (3)--></li> </ol><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/GeekRide-LinuxTipsTricksHacks/~4/ycIFfxph4bw" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.geekride.com/zombie-process-defunct-linux/feed/ 6 http://www.geekride.com/zombie-process-defunct-linux/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/GeekRide-LinuxTipsTricksHacks/~3/AmAX-P0kizc/ http://www.geekride.com/orphan-zombie-process/#comments Tue, 22 Mar 2011 09:29:33 +0000 Napster http://www.geekride.com/?p=1290 <p style="text-align: justify;">It's a pretty much common question asked in most of the interviews related to Linux, and most of the time people got it confused with <a href="http://www.geekride.com/zombie-process-defunct-linux" target="_self">Zombie Process</a>. But these two are totally different from each other. An <strong>Orphan Process</strong> is nearly the same thing which we see in real world. Orphan means someone whose parents are dead. The same way Orphan process is a process, whose parents are dead, that means parents are either terminated, killed or exited but the child process is still alive.</p><h3>Related Posts</h3> <ol> <li><a href="http://www.geekride.com/zombie-process-defunct-linux/" rel="bookmark">Zombie Process</a><!-- (7)--></li> <li><a href="http://www.geekride.com/apache-version-released/" rel="bookmark">Apache v2.4 Released</a><!-- (2)--></li> </ol><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/GeekRide-LinuxTipsTricksHacks/~4/AmAX-P0kizc" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.geekride.com/orphan-zombie-process/feed/ 1 http://www.geekride.com/orphan-zombie-process/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/GeekRide-LinuxTipsTricksHacks/~3/cDwEv-P-RKY/ http://www.geekride.com/tech-tip-sending-email-from-command-line/#comments Mon, 24 May 2010 14:58:54 +0000 Napster http://www.geekride.com/?p=1227 <p style="text-align: justify;">Everyone is not as lucky as having a full fletched email client like thunderbird or kmail to send mails. There is one unlucky group known as system administrators who have to send the mails either through the command line or a script running on the remote server. Also, apart from sending the emails, sometimes one needs to test or debug the email server which can't be done by traditional email clients. If you are one of those system administrators and are scared, then you shouldn't be, because this is where <a href="http://netcat.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">netcat</a> comes to rescue.</p><h3>Related Posts</h3> <ol> <li><a href="http://www.geekride.com/zombie-process-defunct-linux/" rel="bookmark">Zombie Process</a><!-- (1)--></li> </ol><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/GeekRide-LinuxTipsTricksHacks/~4/cDwEv-P-RKY" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.geekride.com/tech-tip-sending-email-from-command-line/feed/ 5 http://www.geekride.com/tech-tip-sending-email-from-command-line/
