Interesting that thay should post that article on a machine that is running Netscape-Enterprise/3.6 on Solaris. Has anyone seen the documents they refer to at w3 that describe Macs as being the most secure web servers?
Interesting to notice, their HTTP headers proclaim the site is running FreeBSD. It is nice to see FreeBSD and Linux being used in large commercial applications.
tunelinux seems a bit sparse on content. It seems more like a template for a new site, than a ready to launch site. The links I followed all seemed to point to simple descriptions of the various daemons and architectures. They could have seeded it with at least the Apache Performance notes or the more specific OS performance notes already published on the main Apache site. Not to mention the fact that they could have perused the contents of the many howtos listed at Linuxberg among many other places. It looks like a good starting point though, and I'm sure it will become a useful resource once more content is provided. It is a nice design, but "Content is King."
Of course, you could always just leave the case off;)

I.D. Internet Direct. Ltd. successful in suit against junk emailer
Press Release: I.D. Internet Direct. Ltd. successful in suit against junk emailer
April 1, 1999, Toronto - In the first successful lawsuit of its kind in Canada, independent Internet service provider (ISP) I.D. Internet Direct Ltd. today announced that the court has ruled in its favour in its recent application for an injunction against junk emailer Cory Altelaar. The ruling grants I.D. Internet Direct. Ltd. an injunction preventing Cory Altelaar from delivering junk email through its systems and awards the ISP a reimbursement of its legal costs.
"This is a ground-breaking ruling in the struggle against junk email in Canada," says John Nemanic, President of I.D. Internet Direct. Ltd. "If Mr. Altelaar violates the court order and attempts to use our services for junk email again, he'll be looking at some serious charges."
Nemanic says that his company received several calls and emails of support from other ISPs who were similarly abused by junk emailers (also known as "spammers"). "We want to thank our lawyer, Andrew Lundy of Brunner and Lundy, for his fine work in this case," says Nemanic. "This ruling sends junk emailers a serious message: this activity is not legally acceptable in Canada. You can try to hide, but you will be caught and risk prosecution if you abuse the Internet."
Are these rpms required? I am running 2.2.1 on a number of RedHat 5.2 boxes with no problems whatsoever. Are there any docs that describe exactly what these rpms are supposed to do? I don't like the idea of simply updating things with no indication of what the update is supposed to do (other than the fact that the filename references the program being updated)

I'd like to check this out but the /. effect has struck again.

Once again, the press has a differing definition of the term "hacker" than I do.
Too bad they wrote it before 2.2.1
