*no comment* writes: "Linux has broken the barrier with the 100 petabyte ceiling, and

I learned about theregister.co.uk a long time ago becuase of slashdot. Now we have a billion choices for slashboxes but how come we dont have one for the reg? Every /. reader worth their salt reads the reg and its time it got a slashbox. While we are at it lets add theinquirer.net as well.
This would be a boon for every linux and hardware buff.

Compendium of *nix lpd vulnerabilities
By Thomas C Greene in Washington

So many vulnerabilities affecting the lpd (line printer daemon) have come to light in recent months that CERT/CC has issued a compendium advisory urging all users and admins to review their system configurations and patch status.
"All of these vulnerabilities can be exploited remotely. In most cases, they allow an intruder to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the lpd server," CERT explains.
A table provided in the above advisory references systems with their correponding individual advisory.
Affected systems include:
--BSDi BSD/OS Version 4.1 and earlier
--Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 and 2.1r4
--FreeBSD All released versions FreeBSD 4.x, 3.x, FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE, 3.5.1-STABLE prior to the correction date
--Hewlett-Packard HP9000 Series 700/800 running HP-UX releases 10.01, 10.10, 10.20, 11.00, and 11.11
--IBM AIX Versions 4.3 and AIX 5.1
--Mandrake Linux Versions 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, 7.1
--NetBSD 1.5.2 and earlier
--OpenBSD Version 2.9 and earlier
--Red Hat Linux 6.0 all architectures
--SCO OpenServer Version 5.0.6a and earlier
--SGI IRIX 6.5-6.5.13
--Sun Solaris 8 and earlier
--SuSE Linux Versions 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2
Quite a list -- no doubt soon to be framed on Bill Gates' office wall. ®
Looks like the moderators are on the $3 crack again. You would think that they could refrain for at least a few minutes to moderate.

Just what more do you get out of a 2 GB pr0n movie anyways? I mean it's not like it needs to be any longer than 3 minutes, so what is the resolution just so high you can see the pores on her skin as he.. uh... nevermind..
A PETAbyte would be the amount of storage space required to hold all of the arguments in favour of eating grass instead of cattle, statements about how drinking milk is as natural as nasal sex, and frivolous protests against owners of frankfurter-shaped vehicles.
Am I the only one who heard Roxette to sing "I'm gonna get blitzed for some sex"?
I had a peta byte once, I shot it
