FreeBSD is the free version. BSD/OS is the expensive version. FBSD comes with free source, but BSD/OS does not. Most FreeBSD programs should run fine on BSD/OS. BSD/OS was also the original BSD. It's more stable. Did I miss anything?
you mean there are other 'organizations' that cause web servers to burst into flames? I thought Slashdot was the only reason servers 'spontaniosly' combusted..
UUnet and Exodus. Quova gets its servers hosted at Exodus, and runs UUnet lines. Both companies are hostile to port scanning, and consider it wrong. Exodus's contract says they cannot "engage in any activities or actions that would violate the personal privacy rights of others, including, but not limited to, collecting and distributing information about Internet users without their permission. (here)
I've opened a case number with UU.net. Send them your logs of being scanned! I'm sure UU.net will not be pleased with someone tying up their network with pings, (Is Quova the biggest script kiddie ever?) let alone making money from it. If you have logs showing Quova tapping at your doorway, send them to security@uu.net and we can take care of these people.
If you are a Windows user, upgrade to Windows2000. If you are an NT user, upgrade to Windows2000. If you are a Windows2000 user, apply Service Pack1, and stick with it. Don't be bothered with Whistler, for a while. Whistler is just W2K code, with improved 'user interface.' There will still be several different versions of Whistler code available - Home user, professional user, server version, advanced server, and datacenter type.
I officially patent the ability to search previous patents and submit new ones, all through the Internet! Furthermore, I will call this EPFS (Electronic Patent Filing System)
I never have to worry about data being stolen, because a machine came up missing. I don't have to have a user whine because the newest virus they downloaded wiped their hard drive and now they have to redo the report due to Upper Management, due this afternoon.
At my place of employment, I make sure nothing is on any laptop or desktop. Company information should NOT be allowed to reside on external media, such as desktops, floppies and laptops. All data should be on the servers, which should theoretically be in a locked room, in a locked rack. Not only is your data protected (we're not going to get into encryption, ect) but you can do backups as well.
One day I was browsing through Slashdot comments, and saw a link to Mojonation. I thought it was 'pretty damn l33t' so I signed up. Their system sucks! The entire 'search capabilities' are basically run off everyone's machines, using some wierd, outdated self-written protocol that just plain sucks. I could never find anything. My machine was extremly bogged down ( and I have a very nice machine) even though it (Mojonation) was not doing anything. From watching their log, I think I discovered their biggest problem. Some college student decided to make a huge beowulf computer and name it MojoNation. Except it sucks. It is slow, ill-configured, and worthless. I could not find anything, in part because it took nearly 10 minutes to load their search page. If I wanted to change what I would provide, it took another 10 minutes (all on empty T1 lines too) Word to the wise: don't waste your time. Even if GNUtella and Napster are slow, filled to capacity, they are still better than this.
5. Sony completes it on time for Christmas, the biggest shopping spree of the year. Millions of children add it to their Christmas list, causing parents to go out and give their hard earned cash to Sony. Corporate execs and stockholders make so much money they can now afford to sink a fleet of 175 foot luxury yahts.
Believe it or not, this could be good. Corel has been having some trouble lately. With a small influx of money from Microsoft, and additional support, perhaps they will get back on their feet, which means continued support for Linux.
Due to Slashdotting, someone changed the site and got rid of a ton of stuff. I copied the original before, and it is over at http://www.johncglass.com/mirror/ pal mrobot.htm There are more links to how to build one yourself, and the physics behind the machine. Pretty interesting
It looks like what you did ould be considered reverse engineering. I doubt you will be seeing your seize and desist letter as you wanted. I suppose this is a good thing!
What's he done in the 90's? How about Windows 95? How about Windows NT? Granted, not the most stable, secure products ever made, but come on, almost everyone (including half the Slashdot population) uses them! Granted, he did not write every single line of code, but he did lead the company that did. Without his leadership, who knows what would have happened.
Without Windows 95, where would we be? 90 % of us would be out of a job. Computers would not have hit it off 'really big,' because they would still be too hard to use for the idiots who sit at home (yes, those same people who call tech support)Like it or not, NT is nearly ^H^H^H quite possibly the de facto network operating system of the small / medium sized business.
If BillG left Microsoft 10 years ago, would any of this come around? Or would you be running DOS or Windows 3.1? ( which was also innovative) Would 99% of offices have a computer in them? Or, would you be flipping burgers at BurgerKing? (which runs NT, last time I checked)
I provide mirroring service (as well as free, spamless, advertisingless web hosting / services ) if you are interested in getting some. Send me an email~
browse through all the 50K users, and look at their passwords. It's got to be hilarious to comment on some of them. "CmdrTaco's password is 'secret?' Timothy's is 'gunsaregood'? Hemos's is 'ohgodmywifeisugly'JonKatz is 'pitythefoolwhoreadsmywritings.' I would love to see a copy of the database, not to do anything with other than run a few things against it and see what the most common / longest / hardest / shortest password is.
In other ramblings of my mind, our friends in the server room should make a mandatory password change. It is always good practice

Stop wasting bandwidth. It's precious.
Stick with W2K - its good.

Perhaps I have the wrong book / movie in my head, but wasn't Andromedia supposed to be a biological weapon created by the government?
Check out http://linuxnewbie.internet.com/ if you are interested in the site. It is just something like Slashdot, so I would not bother. Basically, you should read http://bugzilla.redhat .co m/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18033
Extra money is always good.
