Caching is a specific capability of HTTP. The web is desigined around having caching servers. If you make information available via HTTP, then you are allowing it to be accessed via HTTP, which means you are allowing caching.
HTTP does not require caching, however: If you dont want caching, set the approiate HTTP headers. Dont complain that you dont understand the technology that you are using.
And, in fact, the safety record of the Shuttle is better then was was expected. Risk assesement was done (or risk was a defined requirement) then the programme started. The shuttle has been safer then what was pre-deteremend to be acceptable.
Well, wireless networks freqnently use VPNs for access, and PKI can be a component of VPN authentication. IPSec, I beleive, by definition, uses PKI. Wired links for semi public use - university labs, say - also frequently go through something more serious then arp/dhcp; VPN or PPPoE or something.
As for local network access, ISTR something new out of Cisco where the routers/switches can do some kind of host analysis to make sure that they arn't virus/worm infested. I guess, something like Punkbuster on multiplayer games. I dont remember the detail, and cant find the link, so the punkbuster analogy could be way off.
The distinction being that Navy ships, by definition, are armed. Being armed they are soverign terriroty. The Hubble is not, and too use the analogy, thus free for anyone to salvage.
True, true. And as the anon coward points out, many/most servers have serial console ability (perhaps that would be the defining quality of a "server").
grub can happily direct its output to a serial console, and linux can when it takes over. But no Linux install system I have ever seen allows for this. Most/all install systems use syslinux/isolinux which, so far as I know, dont have serial console abilities. OpenBSD can install from a serial console, great. I dont know of any Linux install system that can do so inherently.
My point is that this limitation is common (almost universal) with Linux distros, not something specific to Red Hat.
This discovery is a not something to panic about, but rather an achievement that will bring about newer, stronger encryption technology.
Thats great if your a math geek and are doing purely theoretical work. Or if you are still evaluating crypto technology and put off investing in something untill now. But for the everyone else (which is everyone) who already have stuff protected with SHA-1, then it is someting to be worried about. Not panic, but be worried. And sory, it does compromise the security of things that use SHA-1. If the functionality of SHA-1 doesnt effect the functionality of the whole system, then it wouldnt be used at all. Since it is used, it must do something, and now it does that something not as well as we thought.
Does this make a practical difference? No. Was the discovery of a flaw inevitable? No, but the ability to brute force break something is always there.. The effects of the flaw (breaking it) was alwayhs there; this just shortens the timeframe where this is possible.
I dont know about TCP/IP, but the new features were definitly network related. NetBIOS/NetBEUI were definitly added, with related higher level stuff. WfW 3.11 was the companion to NT 3.5.
If you diddnt have a NIC, then 3.11 was exactly the same as 3.1. (and, for that matter, if you diddnt have a 386, 3.1 was the same as 3.0 save for the game selection)
HTML == Hypertext Markup Language
The question diddnt ask for "primary programming language" it asked for "primary language". There are (apparently, from the survey) pleanty of web designers whose primary langage is HTML who use PHP. Or, there are pleanty of PHP users whose primary system is HTML. The point is that a large chunk of the userbase of PHP are not "programmers", but web developers. Making PHP more like Java makes PHP easier to pick up and use for Java developers. Which is great, if you a Java developer, but most of the PHP users are first HTML hackers.
In fact, storing that kind of data in IMAP messages is how Kolab works. (at least, so far as I know)
IMAP is a very rich protocol for handling mail messages. But calander items, task lists and what not are not mail messages. So you have a meeting stored in IMAP. "Tell me what meetings Bob is scheduled for" requires a linear search through all the messages. So you make a change to a meeting, you have to pass around an entire message. Sure, its all linear store somewhere, but you should have something that is at least moderatly desigined for the data it holds. Indexed fields. Being able to pass around "diffs". Kolab using IMAP is a quick and dirty hack.
Relevence: "RedHat-based Centos" implies "Red Hat Supported Centos" Which is just plain wrong. Confusing. Thus the perfect target for trademark protection.
Training in the LAPD is the key. Gates (the LAPD one) has as much as admitted that the problems of the LAPD in the early 90s was its rapid expansion putting lots of new, poorly trained, officers on the street, led by only slightly more experienced and trained officers.

Bzzt. Wrong. Thanks for playing.
The XBox's main processor is a Celeron 733.
For the few years between when I find out and when Ive actually lost it, I can have some serious fun with people.
Its portable....... once!

Your a mathematician and you dont know the word "Cardinal"?

So given a choice of working from home, or having someone from another country doing your job, you'll take the later?

I havent played with it for more then 2 minutes to see how good it is, but a "Access"-ish thing is in OO.o 2.0

The abridged explaination is that it isnt much more then a GUI front end to what OO.o has always had... Or the DB stuff that went into 2.0, anyway.
Mirror? Do you realy think that an IT company with a market capitalization of $2 billion is going to be helped by your dinkly little server?

How is that not true with any OS? Such a feat would require somewhat special hardware; it isnt a very common PC that has a serial console.
It certifies SLES 9 as being in the same league as Windows 2000.

Wait a couple of months. The decent front end is Evolution, and /. has reported that Novell has hired on staff to do a Windows port.
