I do this every once in a while for people. I tend to charge around $20-30 an hour, depending on what I need to do. This is typically less than what Best Buy and the other local computer shops will charge but enough to make it worth my time.
Obviously you didn't pay much attention in the class or attended a really bad one. I've attended a few SANS courses, and while they are expensive, they are worth every penny IMO. Every instructor I've had has gone beyond whats on the PPT presentations.
Most of the University of Akron's profs have their lecture notes available online now. I'm sure most schools do this for students who miss class, etc. You can check out UofA's at http://www.cs.uakron.edu/ (the comp sci dept at least)
Sending a MAC with FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF would only be a problem on the local subnet since MAC addresses are not routed.
Therefore, if you modified your driver to ignore RST's from a FF:FF... MAC, it would only matter if a router/machine on your local were sending them to you.
Since www.geocaching.com is slashdotted, I'll post an explanation of GeoCaching.
Geocaching is where people will hide a cache, usually a tupperware container full of small trinkets, in a park or woods and use a GPS to save the coordinates. The cache is usually hidden somewhat so that passerbys don't see it in the open.
A person will go to the geocaching website, find the coords of a cache and use their GPS to find it. When they find it, they'll take out a trinket and put one in. There's usually a log book as well in it to sign (as well as one on the geocaching website).
There is a saying with geocachers called "Cache In - Trash Out". Basically, it means that whenever you go geocaching, you're supposed to leave the park better than when you came (ie. picking up trash). There is even a day for this.
I know some parks in my area that have become usuable because of this. This guy needs to get a clue and figure out that geocaching is not ruining parks.
The cache is usually hidden, so even if there is a path to the cache, you'll have to look for it.
Besides, it is the responsibility of the person who put the cache to check on their cache every so often. I would think that if they saw that the cache was causing a path to be formed through the virgin woods where a path was not previously there, they would remove the cache.
I'm not disagreeing with you on this...in fact I totally agree. However, don't think that IPSO is a totally hardened OS. It's an extremely good start, but its not the cats meow.:) There are a few things that need to be done.
Amazon's "Also shopped for list"

Lucky Wander Boy

Since this book is about geeks and games, I think its kinda appropriate that Amazon's "Customers who shopped for this item also shopped for" list contains: The Definitive Book of Pick-Up Lines.:)

Ban him. He's not going to change his ways, you've warned him and he's just bringing down the experience of the others on the site.
While this looks like an alternate reality game, this has been done before. http://www.hudakville.com/modules/weblog/details.php?blog_id=16
The intern was fired a few weeks after this happened. As was the intern's immediate supervisor and the supervisor's manager.
Not really - the show usually has about 3 myths in it. 3 myths at 1 week per myth = 3 weeks.
Then you better get this book as well!
Zombies!!! from Twilight Creations rocks! Plus it has alot of really cool expansion paks to it.

If you can dig up an old copy of Hero Quest too you'd probably like that.

I call dibs on the first geocache on Mars!

Actually, to avoid that, you should set up host-based IDS, not by bypassing the intergrity of the SSL connection.
Oh good. A 1-stop shop for all your financial information! :)
I find this hard to believe, especially considering the amount of traffic I'm seeing from infected Windows servers trying to break into my machines.
:)
Of course, that number may be so low since all of the other Windows servers are done all the time. An attacker doesn't have a chance to break in.
Too bad Linux doesn't have a format command...
Here's another question. Is donating to an open source project tax deductible?

Exactly! I used to be a Boy Scout and know exactly what you are talking about.

Ummm...crash override was the guy. Acid Burn was Angelina Jolie.
Snow Crash or Cryptonomicon by Neil Stephenson
Two of the best geek books out there.
If you like horror...check out Lovecraft or Clark Ashton Smith.
Um, if you can get Aunt Martha's cookie recipe confused with a hot naked teen email, I'd like to eat those cookies! :)
