Nice article, Rene. I also saw apache_mod_proxy can do the reverse-proxy function. How is the performance comparing to squid proxy? any benchmarking on this proxy performance between these two?

thanks again, Clement

as to excuses I use for "THAT" OS, I usualy just say "what do you expect? It's Mickey$hit Windblows. And that is why I use Linux.".

I have actualy exclusivly used linux since '95. Before that I used OS/2 Warp cause the "other" OS used broken cooperative multitasking, and that was just a mess for my Fido-net BBS.

Any particular reason for not just using a tool, which already exists - such as Unison (http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/) which is cross platform/OS ?

Heh. That was back in my "youth".

Yes -- this is correct. puts only outputs stuff on the screen. This is when you have Ada.text_io; in use as a package.

I am not sure what you're asking me here -- surely it's obvious what the above is doing? Given that "Count" is likely an integer value, and hence you'd have been using something like the following:

with Ada.INTEGER_IO(INTEGER)

Then put in this context takes on a different meaning. What you're asking:

Put(Count,5); New_Line;

To do is output count with a width of five digits.

The explanation as above also fits in with this.

Oh dear, it seems I have submitted this work in late. I wonder what your teacher would have awarded me?

Hi,

Dunno whether you append old pages or not, but since this is the most linked by google, maybe you do.

Answer2:

Additionally to the original answer the error message (and the fill of th ARP table) may be caused by an accidentally too broad local net route, like 193.0.0.0/8 on eth0, which would generate plenty of ARP for any 193... addresses, which in fact fills the ARP cache (neighbour table). This usually happens if you mistype the network mask... (like writing /4 instead of /24, or 255.0.0.0 instead of 255.255.255.0)
