0.0.0.0 is not the default gateway, in the instance that you show 192.168.20.1 is the default gateway. When defining a static route you would do something like ip route network next-hop address mask 0.0.0.0 is the network address for the entire address space. 0.0.0.0 is also the subnet mask of the entire address space, thus all packets are passed through this route if no other route is known.
It's certainly time that Linux got a journalling file system. fsck's are not only much faster, they're unnecessary. In the event of a crash the file system checks for any writes that were open but not committed, eliminating the necessity to check the entire volume. XFS also has support for 9 million terabytes which should suffice for the next few years. check out the white paper.
According to their latest press release which describes their restructuring, SGI will continue to develop and support IRIX on MIPS hardware. They also go on to state that they will continue to develop MIPS processors through 2002 when they will transition their high-end machines to IA-64 and Linux.
ooh man, don't get me started on sun keyboards. backspace and \ switched, ctrl and caps switched, I really hate those things. Oh yeah, I'm pounding away on one of those old IBM keyboards right now, a ps/2 model from the late 80s. I love it.
It's not right in any sense, I don't believe. Non-alcoholic beer must have less than.5% alcohol content to be considered so. Guiness has ~4.3% and one of my favorite beers is Dragon Stout which has almost 7% alcohol content. check out this link for a list.
You can use the win32 port of netcat to listen on any tcp or udp and give you a shell when you log in. It doesn't do any authentication though, so it's not secure, in the least.
He certainly is full of it, what kind of network admin lets an ISP vendor dictate their schedule in a 24x7 operation? Much less the fact that he didn't use dhcp.
Some certifications do mean something. I'd hazard to say that most certifications mean something. They indicate that the person in question possessed the knowledge required to get that certification at the time he did the certification testing. That's all. They certainly don't indicate any level of understanding, which is the real problem. Certain types of tests are designed to challenge understanding, most fail. I got my CNE a few months after NW4.x shipped. They had started using adaptive tests at the time to make the process more challenging and eliminate the growing phenomena of "paper cne's". It took me approximately a month to get my certification and then another week or so to get another CNE for GroupWise (piece of crap). I was annoyed at the fact that a lot of questions on the test were designed to test analytical thinking, but failed, and instead were simply obscure and difficult to understand. Which is one of the reasons that I respect that CCIE (Cisco Certification) process. I've yet to meet a single "paper CCIE". I don't know about the CCNA or any of that, but the potential CCIE must take and pass a standardized qualification test at a sylvan testing center. This test isn't easy, I missed passing it by 5 or 6 points all five times i took it. It is a simple but extremely thorough test of knowledge, and if you don't have it, you can't fake it. I mostly missed the SNA, X.25, token ring bridging which is old tech that I have little experience with. Once the potential candidate passes the qualification test he gets to go to a Cisco testing center where a Cisco training specialist will set up a "make or break" scenario. The Cisco guy chooses two different protocols or areas of specialty (SNA, TCP/IP, access lists, etc.) and the candidate must build a complete network to pass traffic with the equipment provided. The candidate also has access to the documentation. Once completed the candidate goes home. The next day when he comes in, the network that he build will be broken. The candidate must fix it. The metric for passing is that he must pass one packet of traffic.
Regardless of how good your analytical skills are people get into situations where they fail. Like your cable incident, mine are usually related to "known good" equipment. Sometimes you just have to assume that certain equipment is.
I'm sure they'll follow exactly this path, in much the same way they embraced and extended the various web standards with activex and now have the market for web-based application development tools.
I wouldn't necessarilly say that BeOS is reusing Linux code, but they do ship their OS with a number of GNU tools including bash, bison, grep, find, make, and interestingly enough samba as well as the GNU development environment. They also of course ship the source to all these tools as well.
I'd be the last person to defend AOL but the conditions under which information would be released, as described by the article, are really no different than any ISP. I'm sure the authorities could gain the same access to information by serving an individual with a search warrant and getting the information from his computer. What really should be questioned here is not AOL's policies for giving information in response to a "valid legal process" but the conditions under which such warrants and court orders are approved.
A thousand pair cable is a big deal if you're the one that has to fix it. I once had a subcontractor that was doing trenching work for me hit a 900 pair cable on a university campus (we were putting in fiber). Luckily he only went through half of the cable, but I still had to sit in a muddy hole all day the following day and splice the damn thing. It was a big deal to me.
I loved "The Matrix" as well. I've been a fan of Lawrence Fishburne for a long time. I personally believe that some of the campiness in this film was intentional. People have discussed most of the religious references in the film, the messiah, the trinity, etc. I wonder why no one has mentioned the references to Alice in Wonderland. "Follow the white rabbit." The red pill and the blue pill, etc.
I haven't worked in Novell environment for over a year now. But as I recall, Novell either has or were planning support for LDAP. Also, I am quite sure of the existence and have used the LDAP features of GroupWise. Having worked on a couple of very large NetWare 4.x Installations, I can definitely say that there is significant benefit for using NDS across multiple servers. Basically, the user and resource become independent of the servers themselves. I loved NDS, and am waiting for the day for something better to supplant it, because I don't believe that Novell is going anywhere with it.

As well as 172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255. This is all defined in RFC 1918.
