Using SpamAssassin centrally can be done - you just need to configure sendmail to pass everything through procmail, and then call spamassassin from procmail. (Use the spamd daemon, rather than invoking spamassassin all the time).
More like, "I know at least one of the people I send this to will Reply-to-all when he means to replay to one other person and then I'll have a week of two people having a conversation through my inbox."
This is very true: Mod this one up as insightful, someone.
Sam comes through at the end when Frodo can't go on and provides the strength of character which is the real strength of the Hobbits.
Poignantly, if you read the timeline at the end of the LoTR, you'll note that Sam also seeks the Grey Havens after being the strength behind the Shire for many years.
Stouffer has a resounding failure with a book which has been described as 'worse than "Eye of Argon"' and 'reads like a reject from a publishers slush pile'.
Rowling and Stouffer certainly weren't friends and the character of Larry Potter was proven in court to have nothing to do with Rowling's creation.

The goal of the blockers is to eliminate commercial use of the Internet.
This is absolutely untrue. The goal of the blockers is to stop spam and abuse of the network and reclaim it from those who think that merely having and email address is an invitation to get spam.
True, but there may be higher ports which get probed a lot. Best to let a relatively dim and cheap lump of hardware worry about it, while your nice *nix box only has to worry about the one or two ports you serve on.
I get probed on MS SQL ports a lot, which just bounce happily off my little linksys router.
(At work, we get tons of shite which gets bounced from the Ciscos.)
You are an idiot if you have *any* type of computer just sitting on a fast, unprotected connection.
Get yourself a firewall, block off every port except those you actually need incoming connections on. You only need incoming connections if you're running a server of some kind. A typical workstation machine does not need any inbound ports open.

It's probably not possible that you can get a book out like this out without some operating system having an upgrade between finishing the writing and it hitting the shelves.
Like the Unix System Administrator's Handbook, the best you can do is teach a general philosophy, with some examples for each of a few representative systems, then *maybe* have an updates page on a website somewhere.
I've always found that, once you know in principle how to do something, doing it on a different flavour of Unix is just a matter of reading the man pages for different options to the various commands. (Or in the case of solaris, swearing a lot and saying things like "mount/floppy wasn't good enough for ya, ya had to make a new command for it?!?!?")
Of course, when you boss sees that you change whatever you're looking at whenever he approaches, he's going to get very suspicious, no matter what it is.
Keep it open, and point out something relevant in the background to him. Better to be thought the kind of sad geek who'd look past a beautiful naked woman to examine a server in the backgound, that someone who browses porn at work.
Honestly, Porn at work? You deserve to get fired. Browse your porn at home.
Excuse me, but Terry Pratchett is a decent author of fiction. Also, Trent Reznor, is a decent musician, (although I don't care for his stuff personally, many people do like it).
Please don't slander these individuals by even insinuating that they may like or approve of any of the crap which spews forth from Brian Herbert's rotting brain.
But, please, feel free to insult Hubbard and Spears.
"God Emperor of Dune" is the third book, after Dune, Dune Messiah.
Herbert had an editor for the first, the second was too short to need an editor, and he was allowed to spew any old rubbish for the third and subsequent books.
There's much more to dune than the first few books, but almost all of it is complete and utter drivel.
Incidentally, I once tried to read one of Brian Herbert's books. That man should be taken out and shot. He's an incompetent hack who has no idea about writing fiction.
Kevin Anderson is a cheap Hack. To day that what he writes is Science Fiction is insulting. He spews forth a brand of crap which fits into the stream of crap he's contracted to write for.
Timothy Zahn wrote some StarWars books which were entertaining. Anderson's stuff is boring drivel.

Patches for vulnerabilities which come out in a few hours or days, not months?
Having the source code for the entire OS and applications?
Being able to download a fully fledged OS and install it without having to pay a fortune?
Want me to go on?

Yes, it's very simple
/` (-rf works on some). The -f is very important, or you'll have to say 'y' to every filename.
/dev/null; done

password:
[ enter password]
># passwd
Enter new passwd: [enter]
again: [enter]
Now, you never need to enter your password again!
Oh, and the disk compression utility is `rm -r -f
for the more sophisticated user:
for FILE in `tree -if`; do mv $FILE

I had this problem too, with some germans spamming from mcbone.net and t-dialin.net.
I complained, but got no response, so I blocked them at the router.
mcbone.net are porn spamming scum.
