Since you said you cannot dedicate a machine to Linux, just install a barebones distro under VMware on your Win2K machine. Export the ISO files through Samba so that the Linux guest OS can see them, mount them on loopback, and re-export the mounted directories over Samba. Very back-ass-wards, but if you have a reasonably powered machine, it will work.
Dunno about Macs. Cygwin's ssh client (and server) works pretty much the same way as the unix counterpart, option for option - you could probably create a.bat file using it, for your family:)
Sure it does. At my workplace, even ftp is blocked - it's http-only, with just ports 80/8000/8080 open. So I run my ssh server on the default port 22, as well as on port 8000. It's a simple matter of putting in two lines in your/etc/ssh/sshd_config:
Securing a VNC session is easy with port forwarding. Assuming you have sshd running on the NT box, and the VNC server on ports 5900 and 5800 (default in Windows), just say (on the client):
If a 3.0 average is what's bugging you, don't worry too much about it. College is a way of getting you acquainted with a lot of things in a relatively short amount of time - and some people do better at short-term learning than others. Also, programming in the real world is a lot different from whatever you did at school - and it can be a very rewarding experience to build something and know that there are other people using it.
So relax, look for interesting projects to do in your first few years, and try to be diverse in the beginning: work with wildly different things - dabble into kernel-level code, work on user interfaces, learn how neural nets work and make one of your own. In a couple of years or a little more, you'll have a broad knowledge of a lot of things, and with a little luck, you'll find something that interests you.
If you ask me, the best part about working with computers is that you never stop learning. It is very fulfilling in the long run, so don't lose heart yet:)
And I salute you, sir, for being brave enough to even think of installing what has clearly been demonstrated as badly written, dangerous software. I somehow don't believe that if a bug like this got through into a release, that it might not have more nice things inside it, that version 2.01 might not have corrected. (Ok, too many negatives in one sentence).
And there is no need to run it - Cygwin comes with an ssh daemon. It's fairly easy to set up, just run ssh-host-config. You can run it as a Win2K service if you want.
Also, as I'm sure many others will mention, Cygwin includes the coolest text-mode email client, mutt. It's hightly configurable, with colors and split panes and whatnot.
get more H1Bs to come into the country, take our paychecks, and mail them back to their own country, depriving our retail businesses of a lot of their revenues.
Well, surely the employer has the right to employ whoever they like? Maybe the foreign worker is not as qualified as you ( and that's in your opinion:) ), but provides the employer with a better price/performance ratio.
Apparently, globalization of economies is good only as long as it opens up foreign markets to American companies; as soon as the people from there start taking advantage of a globalized job market too, it is time for you to rant, isn't it? How about trying to learn some skills that distinguish you from the rest of the pack? But maybe whining is easier than competing.
The people who do come in are not exactly burger-flippers. For the most part, they are reasonably educated in their discipline. Sure, some of them send money back to their countries, but they also buy cars and homes and stuff from "our retail businesses". Nobody's taking "your" paycheck - they have taken a big step to leave their homes and come here to work for it. Go do something worthwhile instead of crying - you were lucky to be born in the land of opportunity, learn how to live in it.
Sure. Just enable CONFIG_IEEE1394 in your kernel config. It is listed under "IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support (EXPERIMENTAL)" in the main "make xconfig" menu. I don't know whether your particular drive would work or not, but you can try.
Yes. To be more accurate, baseband is called so because the "base" signal is transmitted, that is, the signal that's generated is the one that is transmitted. In broadband, there are multiple signals being transmitted - however, each one has been transformed, so as to occupy a unique "band".
Yeah, the gnu libraries are slow. But check out the oroinc stuff - I think it's being maintained by the Apache/Jakarta guys now. It lets you use very Perl-like syntax for regexps in Java.
You idiot, this is the second time you said Verizon blocks outgoing SMTP. Where do you get your facts from? I've been using their DSL (and dialup when DSL is down) for more than a year now, and I never used their SMTP servers at all.
What's the big deal, people? Run a mail server on your localhost and use it for outgoing mail. That's what I do.
Yeah, Alan is slowly being "merged" into the kernel, going by the Changelogs:)
Btw, I had terrible issues with 2.4.5 exhausting all available swap space, and causing the machine to come to screechless halt. I've been running the pre6 patches for a while now, and it's fixed. So upgrading might be a good idea.
printf() statements for debugging multithreaded code are a really bad idea. It's an I/O, and hence blocking call, and can therefore affect the way your threads are scheduled - resulting in mysterious things, e.g. the problem disappears when you use the printf(), but reappears if you comment it out.

Securing a VNC session is easy with port forwarding. Assuming you have sshd running on the NT box, and the VNC server on ports 5900 and 5800 (default in Windows), just say (on the client):
ssh -L 5800:<server-ip>:5800 -L 5900:<server-ip>:5900 -N <server-ip>
And then you can direct your VNC client to localhost:0 instead of <server-ip>:0.
Oh, the windows VNC client does not allow localhost connections by default. Never fear: add the following key to the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ORL\WinVNC3]
"AllowLoopback"=dword:00000001
Ta-da!

cvs also supports versioning of binary files (though not as diffs, obviously). Use the -kb flag.
