  1. Re:link to patch and example on BIND Strikes Back Against VeriSign's Site Finder · · Score: 1

    Except early patchers are saying it's

    com.
    net.

    -not-

    com
    net

    (trailing dots/no trailing dots) in the "type" directive.

    My customers are not complaining yet, so I will wait on patching...

  2. Re:Is a Technology solution ALWAYS better than law on BIND Strikes Back Against VeriSign's Site Finder · · Score: 3, Interesting

    this effectively lets VeriSign get away with it.

    As a BIND architect/deployer/admin I see that ISC is always getting bashed. Kudos to them for this creative patch, presented almost instantly compared to their usual release schedules. But, precisely, it let's Verisign get away with this action, which is horrible. Especially because this: http://www.iab.org/Documents/icann-vgrs-response.h tml
    (which was posted in the first slashdot thread abot this topic), went unnoticed, and unheeded by Verisign.
    Big business in this country is getting WAY out of hand with greed.

  3. Verisign removed 64.94.110.11 already? on Resolving Everything: VeriSign Adds Wildcards · · Score: 1

    As of about 05:35 UTC 64.94.110.11 has trouble being reached, traffic stops at the first hop into verisign's IP space - but the wildcard is still in place ... coincidence or... they have seen what they have wrought and .. removed the IP ?

  4. you mean put 8 pounds of dog shit in a 1-pound bag on Windows 95 in 4.47MB · · Score: 1

    yeh, I was just yesterday thinking of moving everything back to 95 - this rocks!!!

  5. Testicular display on SCO Targets US Government, TiVo · · Score: 1

    should've bought the stock earlier. This is the ultimate bluff, everyone's going to figure they must be right if they're demanding licensing fees from Uncle Sam. Every Post Office scanning station runs linux, No?

  6. Here's a good value. on Rackmounting at Home? · · Score: 1

    Cheap considering what you get. I've bought from them before (1U rack mount). Very nice people too. http://www.gtweb.net/rack_frame.html

  7. Linus killing Linux? on Is Linus Killing Linux? · · Score: 1

    A body of OEMs and vendors to guide the development and course of the Linux kernel???

    What we really need at this point is a separate, impartial entity, perhaps a body of really pissed-off roving open source or BSD geeks with automatic weapons, a couple spare hours a day, and just that much stomach acid from too much caffeine, to eliminate at birth the Paula Rooneys of the world, and their simpering editors before they actually ever reach puberty and then publish.

    CMP Techweb is just another publication riding the Linux popularity wave, scraping for articles to invent, having nothing of substance to contribute to the world, proudly waving their stupidity for all to see.

    Sorry to have wasted this much time on it already.
