Misconfigured Webserver, Threats to Call FBI
the_harlequin writes "The Register is reporting that a city manager threatened to call the FBI over a misconfigured webserver. From the article: "The heartland turned vicious this week when an Oklahoma town threatened to call in the FBI because its web site was hacked by Linux maker CentOS. Problem is CentOS didn't hack Tuttle's web site at all. The city's hosting provider had simply botched a web server."

Just like you could read on the Register last week.... http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/03/24/tuttle_cen tos/

Now we really need someone (hint, anyone out there) to actually hack his site. If you do though, please make it clear it wasn't CentOS.
Finally, kudos to CentOS for even responding to this dipshit.
I really hate that this is getting linked to from so many places. This should never have been posted, and will only hurt Open Source Software's cause.
We keep telling companies that they can trust open source software. When they point out that there is no support, we tell them about the wonderful community that they can turn to for support.
This is PERFECT MS anti-linux fodder. Yeah, sure you can turn to the OS community for support... if you want to get ridiculed on the Internet.
I'm not arguing that the town manager was a dick - he clearly was from his mails, but even so, this thread should not have been posted on the 'net.
No, the median (assuming a total distribution of: 0 legs, 1 leg and 2 legs) would be 1 leg. The mode would certainly be 2. Also s/average/mean/.

I am a foster parent with currently 3 foster children in my home and I have only one thing to say to you. If you pity the children here, be a MAN and open your home to allow some of these children you say you pity into your life. Show them what a DAD should be! Ya I thought so... Any male with functioning equipment can become a Father; it takes a MAN to be a DAD! These children are in very good homes, there are a few problems in every area of life (i.e. City government) which are the ones that make the news. No I do not go to church w/e with this guy, nor do I know where or IF he does go. Unfortunately you are most likely correct however, in stating that he will likely not lose his job, but incompetence, on this level, should be rewarded by exactly that. Make no mistake however that this one individual represents in any fashion the rest of the community. Tuttle is a town located about 20min from downtown Oklahoma City. Most of the people living out here work in Oklahoma City.
First you don't know what you don't know
Second you know what you don't know
Third you don't know what you know
and finally you know what you know.
Lots of liberals (and their brainless lackeys in the MSM) laughed and derided Rummy for saying this kind of thing.

Obviously - the common American Liberal is a caricature in every respect. They're basically the modern bogeyman of the Neocons. Remember this: Just because Hillary Clinton is a ridiculous carpetbagger doesn't make every other democrat worthy of the title.
