Dumb: Enable telnet client on Vista

You're not losing your marbles -- it really is gone, in the name of "reducing the attack surface" of Vista/Longhorn.

Well, sort of gone -- just gotta check a box under Programs & Feats.

Extend a Redhat LVM filesystem

Slightly simpler case than the earlier one ... this is just something I'd like to have spelled out for convenience, since I do it so rarely.

We want to fix this:

/dev/mapper/prod_dg-volOracle
                       4128448   3918544       192 100% /u01

And we have this:

[root@woogie /]# lvscan
  ...
  ACTIVE            '/dev/prod_dg/volOracle' [4.00 GB] inherit
[root@woogie /]# pvscan
  ...
  PV /dev/sdb1   VG prod_dg   lvm2 [273.22 GB / 139.44 GB free]

So we do this:

[root@woogie /]# lvextend --size 6G /dev/prod_dg/volOracle /dev/sdb1
  Extending logical volume volOracle to 6.00 GB
  Logical volume volOracle successfully resized

(lvextend usage: lvextend --size nG logical-path physical-path ... Use the paths from pvscan and lvscan, and absolute or relative sizes denoted by K,M,G, etc.)

[root@woogie /]# umount /u01
[root@woogie /]# resize2fs /dev/prod_dg/volOracle 6G
resize2fs 1.35 (28-Feb-2004)
Please run 'e2fsck -f /dev/prod_dg/volOracle' first.

[root@woogie /]# e2fsck -f /dev/prod_dg/volOracle
