  1. Yay! More options! on Apache 2.0 Goes Beta · · Score: 2

    I can't wait until my configuration file outsizes the apache executable ;) Seriously though, i will have to give this version a try... Although i really couldn't ask for much more out of 1.3.x

  2. Re:monty hall variant on Geek Brain Teasers · · Score: 1

    My friend pointed out that while in the kitchen, you have a greater chance of seeing a boy's hockey schedule in the exact same sense that you stumble upon a girl's room. Therefor, 1/2...

    You can't control random environments, but you can easily make some vast oversimplifications of them with meaningless results ;)

  3. Re:Diffie-Hellman key exchange on Which Software Patents Are Worthwhile? · · Score: 2

    How can one train a minimum-wage mind to recognize 'obvious'?

    Way too subjective

  4. Wonderland on Another Arcade Standby Calls It Quits · · Score: 1

    I would just like to add that I recently went to Wonderland in the US~Northwest. (Nickel arcade, do they have these elsewhere?) It was comical to me, because i paid $2.25 entrace fee, and all the games were now 4 nickels! ALMOST A QUARTER! So for an admission fee, you can travel to the past in a small room full of very used machins.

  5. Re:I think I'm too goddam busy on The ssh vs. OpenSSH Trademark Battle, Next Round · · Score: 1

    Ahh, i will send an informative message to the developers once i really figure everything out. See, i know more than enough about the problem to bitch to slashdot, but a far cry from what it takes to be a helpful developer! Perhaps tomorrow :)

  6. I think OpenSSH is too goddam busy battling itself on The ssh vs. OpenSSH Trademark Battle, Next Round · · Score: 1

    I work at a NOC that mixes Linux and Unix (and very few Windows) servers adamantly. In a recent knee-jerk reaction, all the Unix admins (which don't really talk to the Linux admins) upgraded their commercial versions of ssh to:
    "sshd: SSH Secure Shell 2.3.0 on sparc-sun-solaris2.8"
    So, I've upgraded my servers to OpenSSH 2.3.0p1... Very well, but now half my servers can't talk to each other. I get so errors among instances of the exact same version of OpenSSH!

    Disconnected; MAC error (Message authentication check fails.).

    2f 75 73 72 2f 6c 6f 63
    Disconnecting: Bad packet length ##########.

    And one case were i can get to a password prompt, but even when i give it the right password, it rejects the attempt!

    The few Unix administrators who run both OpenSSH and Commercial SSH are also finding OpenSSH isn't working the way they expected. I'm not asking slashdot for product support, just moral! :)

    Now, I have fixed these problems and my servers are all communicating again, but it took a greater part of my day to resolve which i could have spent, i don't know, reading the onion or something. :)
