Actually I use several honeypots (RH 7.3, OpenBSD 3.1, and Solaris 9). I patch all known exploits in hopes of finding someone using unknown new ones. So far I have captured a few over the years.
As for using a honeypot with known vulns. I think it is an ok way to learn but a dangerous one. My honeypots only capture the exploit and then lock out the cracker.
They developed the routing system and it works very well. However he is one of three people working for them and "dissing" them thus far. I think a lot has changed with all companies and government agencies since the 60's.
And I find baseball as equally boring as soccer. I prefer to watch events involving women scantily dressed. Not a bunch of men running around on a field chasing a ball. However playing sports like cricket, baseball, or whatever can all be fun.
They aren't worried about bandwith, they are just being greedy bastards. The typical free WiFi is used by people getting to Mapquest or some guy waiting on the bus reading CNN. Since TW doesn't offer a service like this it isn't even competing with them. This is another case of management greed. If people suck too much bandwith the guy owning the cable modem would shut it down or cap it himself when he couldn't surf.
Well they have only stopped 10 people who posted what they were doing on a website. As long as you warchalk you shouldn't need any lawyers. They said at one point they would go after those not securing their machines and we all have seen how well that worked.
The fuss is about the word "God". If you look in a book on deities you will find this word is reserved for the christian/muslim/judism monotheistic deity.
Most people today confuse the word god because at some point english speakers used it to represent any God. This is not its origin however as it wasn't meant to be generic term. Technically the word god was not meant to be a univeral word.
Many believers of other religions would argue that this is christians way of forcing them to accept their deity. Similar to if we called all deities buddah from here on out.
I'm not saying I agree or disagree just telling you the argument I have heard from believers of other religions.
I thought the real problem is that when the "great flood" was documented the earth was supposed to be flat. In order for someone to verify the flood they would also have discovered the earth was round.
Point One: wrong, IPSec is built into windows, linux and I believe the BSD's have a port.
Point Two: wrong IPSec is an authentication system. Just because someone could get someones password doesn't stop ISP's from using radius now does it?
Point Three: Wrong As an admin you should give a rats ass. I have been running an ISP for several years and dealing with people in your network is a nightmare. The first time the FBI comes knocking on your door about your unsecure network is when you will learn to give a "rat's ass".
Maybe in some scientific speak you are correct. However here in the real world WAP means Wireless Access Point. Maybe that goes against some RFC or geek code of ethic but checkout the Linksys website. You will notice all their "Wirless Access Points" are refered to as WAP...
Your first suggestion about multiple channels is good. Wireless is easy to saturate.
However on your second suggestion, I think security from and Admin standpoint is critical. Without a VPN some kiddie will start hacking the FBI through your network. Guess who they start investigating and pointing fingers at first. You can still tell the apartment people they are responsible for their own security but, you must CYA unless you don't mind them banging on your door.
Slashdot Mirror
The real question is how stupid is a person who reads Slashdot and complains about M$ bashing. Pretty damn stupid!
Where? I had to spend thousands of dollars for mine.
Yeah if it ran Doom and Wolfenstien that meant it was a good card. There really wasn't much else to it back then.
Yeah the cancer will kill you before your teeth have a chance to decay!
Yeah what the hell is this intelligent discussion. Lets go back to "Linux is uhh cool teehee". Or how about "Cowboyneal sure has a big hat, yup".

Sadly the article offers very little insight into how they will actually use this extra bandwidth.

I am an American and at age four cricket was the first game I learned to play.
Don't you know? All generalizations are false.
I guess that depends on whether you are actually a member of the mailing list or not ;P.
Ok this might be completley ludicrious but here it goes.
I would like to see Microsoft and Intel team up and go one way, while AMD and everyone else go the other.
Then Microsoft can lock down everyones PC like apple and do whatever they want to. The rest of us will then be able to enjoy our open systems.
Crazy idea? You decide.

them == us, doh!
No actually one exploit is all you need and so far no one seems to have it.

He didn't say he was using Cisco which I believe is 802.x1. With 802.11a/b you should be able to use IPSec or PPTP no problem.

You posted it twice so once again... How can the apartment tenants easily setup an SSH tunnel? With IPSec or PPTP the protocol is built into Windows.
Are you joking? How can his clients use an SSH VPN easily?? I think his choices are PPTP or IPSec in this case.
