  1. Re:BIND 9 is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!!! on Bind 9.0.0 Final Released · · Score: 1

    Entirely true. This is one of the biggest thing that was missing so far..
    What's the use of a IPv6 address when most of your apps, let alone the DNS, cannot handle them ?! =)

  2. Re:Big fucking deal on Bind 9.0.0 Final Released · · Score: 2

    As a matter of fact, it does, and I am thankful that bind was around ever since the net was made.

    In my opinion, slashdot.org is easier to remember than its IP address, and that is thanks to bind.
    But of course, maybe would you rather see 64.28.67.48 News for Nerds. Stuff that matters. Or write your email address as drhelpful@216.214.2.25?

    Come on. Be thankful that bind is around, and respect your elders.

    IOS _is_ an operating system. it has everything of it, even the filesystems. Have you ever just seen a Cisco router ?

    The cacheEngine also (web cache farm)

  5. Re:QNX on Linux Ported to Cisco Routers, BSD chosen by router manufacturers · · Score: 1

    Mistakes and wrong assumptions here. For the hardware platform, it depends which one. Most routers architectures are based on Motorola 68xxx for low-end (2500's) or any kind of MIPS-based CPU for higher grade routers.

    And IOS is NOT QNX, and doesn't use QNX in any way. It didn't say so in the press release, I'm telling you so now. Whatever is Cisco doing with QNX is confidential at this point :)

  6. Abut the HTTP server on Linux Ported to Cisco Routers, BSD chosen by router manufacturers · · Score: 2

    HTTP server is a standard feature in IOS... But it's only used to administer the router and run some commands through a web browser. However, it shouldn't too be hard to extend the built-in server a bit further, to host your domain and serve your pages :-)
