This is a great client. And for someone coming from outlook they'll fit right into it. Pronto is also now a good bit quicker than CSC used to be (running as a flat file anyway, I haven't used the mysql database). Now if there was something that could import Outlook address books, calendars and mail directly, that would be a beautiful thing.
That would be an inference. It's more logical to say "slashdot used to be hosted at this colo center, images2 is AT this colo center, images2 is probably run by slashdot staff" than it would be to say "images2.slashdot.org used to be hosted at this colo center, therefore doubleclick staff have flown in a tigerteam in a silent black helicopter to run images2.slashdot.org"...
This is an educational facility. People are there to learn. What better way to learn what "Joe average webmaster" has for open ports than to scan them. If you're learning system admin, you'll scan whoever, see what's running, question yourself why they're doing what they're doing, etc...
The internet is a public network. Things that are public get used BY the public. One poster had a comment on Texas law stating that by looking in someones car window, you have started the act of burglery. But that law does not mean that if you're looking in the windows of a city bus, that you then plan to steal that city bus.
The machine is private, the data is private, but anything connected to a switch and given internet access, is fair game in my book.
Aol is not just for dialup users. You can access AOL from anywhere you can get a TCP/IP connection, I've used it over a T1, T3, Cable, I won't debate the fact that it does SUCK, but at least it isn't sucking at 56k. They give you about a 50% price break if you "bring your own access" rather than use their dialup lines as well.
Not that anyone cares, but if it does someone some good, that's the deal.
Well, 209.207.224.245 (images2.slashdot.org) *IS* far removed from 64.28.67.48 and 64.28.67.57, www and images.slashdot.org respectively. 209.207.224.245 is owned by DigitalNation while the others are Exodus. Exodus is the current hosting company for slashdot, DigitalNation is the OLD hosting company. So images2.slashdot.org, while not sitting right next to images.slashdot.org, IS under their control, DNS does not point to doubleclick. So there we are.
This is actually the way user tracking SHOULD work, internally, for internal use. Not with crap bounced halfway around the net to some company who may/may not sell it to someone.
Please. You'd just step back to the days of wardialing and hacking accounts again, that's all. I actually used to PAY for a shell account that had to be accessed over a hacked link, due to no local dialups 10 years ago. People WILL find a way. Sript kiddies will dust off ToneLOC and be back on the net, probably before you or I finished our licensing tests. There is no perfect solution, to be sure, either we give up some privacy, or, as you say, get licensed.
Problem with getting "licensed", is that we'll have to give up MORE information that way anyhow. Aside from the enforcement angle, making sure that everyone on the net has their proper license, it would get real messy real fast, end up with the worst of both worlds.
The Memphis (egypt) / Redmond Windows 98 credit scroller Easter Egg, while not that great, goes some way to explaining why the install was so much bigger than 95...
Being that this is a truely tiny place, I can't imagine having very many fibres crossing their principality. What happens to their customers if their primary network connection "goes away" in a large storm or something? Solid ground colo's (Exodus for example), will have many connections from different providers, what is Havenco's solution?
From what he's saying, they aren't using open relay on HIS machine, they're using open relay on someone elses machine, and using his domain in the return address fields. In fact, it looks like the software she uses IS her mailserver, she just feeds it the addresses and it goes, using the reply to: address that she specifies. Now I'm gonna go get 1st Class Mail and play around to make sure I'm not 100% full of crap.

If you took a screenshot of my game machine right now, it would show ICQ Netdetect offline and AIM offline. Why? I use GAIM and LICQ, but they're installed on the 98 machine, and it is connected right to the net right now. Maybe she was offline by choice? M'kay.
There is an OpenGL patch called GLDoom, which someone hacked together. I don't have any links, but I played with it and aside from freezing occasionally, it worked great.
then they have to put the "source" on anything they sell for money? So the complete recipe is given with each can. So we can modify it, resell it, and give our recipes. Uh huh. Except I'll never be able to find Guar Gum at my local Stop and Spend, but that's beside the point, right? At least all the people saying "Better have more caffeine than Jolt" will get to see exactly how much there is per serving.
I'm surprised John Romero didn't take the hint from his former publisher and use this language for Daikatana. From all the negative press I've seen (and screenshots), it could use just this kind of protection.
You guys are scaring me. I'm set to move to Charlotte (unfashionable end of the state). We got a nice, even though I haven't seen it with my eyes, I've been told, 2 bedroom house with a good sized yard for $128k. I've seen nothing but good opportunities in the area also, although the boom is definitely on. There seems to be more "obvious" money there (lambourghinis/$5M houses) than there are up here in Southern NH/Sili-Alley. At least it's a NICE state, like NH, not like a taco bell across the street and 3Com plant on the next block.
Of course this is meaningless to us. If I'm going to do image processing, I'm using a...PC with NT Wkstn, Photoshop, QuarkXpress, 3DSMax...I can't believe they had Linux losing at Internet connectivity issues. These people are total crack monkeys. And did anyone else feel that the Rex Rebuttals were a tad weak? Hardware for instance, the Arguement for OS9 claims as advantages over Linux the ability to use Ethernet and RAID. Ahem. And in GUI, the Mac has seperate user profiles so that different folks get different desktops. Huh, haven't seen that anywhere in the last 12 years. Honestly, the ONLY MS software I use in my home network anymore is Win98, and that is ONLY to run Half-Life CounterStrike. I'm perfectly happy with the Linux apps available to me. But the MAC has always been DTP/Graphics/Multimedia, and it's already lost that market to the MS/PC Juggernaut, who (should soon) lose that market to either Be or, more hopefully, Linux.
I didn't see this link http://opensourceit.earthweb.com/tools/000518_sifr yint.html mentioned in the comments. Decent interview with Dave Sifry on the road ahead for Linuxcare.
It didn't look like they were calling it Kerberos, now it's "Microsoft Authorization Data Specification v.1.0 for Microsoft Windows 2000 Operating Systems". Of course it would be very nice if it was "...2000 and *nix Operating Systems".
Why is nothing ever easy with these guys. I can still buy an "upgrade" to MS-DOS 6.22 or Win3.1 from PCConnection for like $30 something. JUST LET IT GO.
These look really great, and we have a customer who has re-implemented their internal phone "network" with them, and they love 'em. You can route them, although I think you want to minimize the number of hops (when don't you), to avoid latency problems. I want to put someone on hold in NH and have someone pick up in ME without the customer knowing the difference, we're only going to be 3 hops away, so we should be good, n'est ce pas?
This is REAL good. Refresh doesn't work on my 98 machine (IE5), but everything is looking swell from linux boxes. Just use 98 for CounterStrike and all will be fine. VERY fast connection too, no more waiting. I hope my companies move of our (puny) 25 servers goes half this smoothly, we're trying to plan for 0 downtime, hope we pull it off as well as you all did.
The irony being that DoubleClick caught SO MUCH CRAP about this, and then after it all hashes out, they get SUED cause they didn't think of it first. That kind of irony.
But I honestly did stop reading when they said "have to remember the top-level-domain" of the site. Well, 99.94% of the TLD's will be.com. Even if you remember the TLD, you probably won't get there, unless it's a.bob domain. I wanna be xrayspx.bob, that would be cool. Off-topic, Troll, I know, but I really did give up on that article RIGHT then.
I'm using Rockliffe Mailsite on (here it comes) NT. The most I seem to be able to do is only accept relay from people authenticated by email address, figuring yeah anyone could guess one of our addresses, but I think it's a line that many spammers wouldn't cross.
What if for instance one of the people to be ratted out is over 18, and protected by all the same rights as his parents. Assuming the worst (for the program), nothing is wrong, he's just weird, but smart enough to sue everyone involved for every nickel they've ever, or will ever, make? Will an age limit of 17 years be imposed on the program just to avoid lawsuits? And if so, does that make 18 year old High School seniors (which there are plenty of) any less of a threat?
I would have been the first kid anyone turned in in highschool as a "threat", I was never there, had a poor attitude, according to them, and dropped out at 16. I'm now 25, make $40k, and know that what you're doing is very very wrong.
The word Mozilla has been around for a LONG time. I think when Mosaic rolled into Netscape (mosaic -- Mozilla, whatever). But when they started the new browser project, they initially took codebase from netscape and tried upgrading it, then decided that was a Bad Idea, and started from scratch.
