It still works fine. Just give any other valid username. Now you've got a local shell and are good to go. Not being root in one step is just a minor roadblock.
lets have people watching all the video feeds live to make sure that you aren't doing anything wrong, and then have speakers on those cameras to yell at you
Sadly, you think you're being OTT, but it's actually happening.

As a violinist, I'd not use either of these programs. The metronome one is handy, but why fire up a PC when a cheap bit of hardware is just as good and a lot more portable?
Tuning software/gadets I'm against. I've known lots of people that learnt with them and I think they harm not help. You need to get used to *really* listening to what you are doing. Looking at notes on a screen actively hinders this IMO.
At least in the UK, the problem is that cheques can clear, but then be rescinded by the bank at a later date (up to six weeks in some cases). Hence the scam:
You sell something for £50 Buyer comes up with some reason why he should send you a cheque for £1500 and tell you that you can keep £50 plus £10 for you trouble You wait the five days till the cheque has cleared, and send him a cheque for £1440. Your cheque clears. His is rescinded by the bank as fradulent. You are out of pocket by £1440.
What's wrong with/etc/init.d/* startup scripts? Speed and lack of dependencies for starters. Sun has done more-or-less the same as Apple in Solaris 10 with their new svc stuff.
I used to think this, being a unix guy, but now I've actually got one, the only time I find it an issue is when using rdesktop to manage windows servers. Even then, it's dealable with.
I don't believe in state-provided insurance either for all the inefficiences that come with socialism
Sigh. Get real. The UK spends 50% of what the US spends on health (as a percentage of GDP) yet gets much better health outcomes. Where is this inefficiency of which you speak?
You need the "Laptop mode" kernel patch. Google for it. It batches writes to the HD, so if you combine that with some agressive hdparm stuff you can get the hd to spin down.
My laptop can easily spin the HD down for long periods of time if I'm just web browsing (as someone else says, set the on-disk cache to 0KB)
Look again that the history. The UK didn't outcompete the Indian weavers via technology. It took advantage of the fact that it ran India to complete run down the Indian weaving industry and just turn it into a source of raw materials
and when you get there, you'll find that all the same regulations about being able to record all conversations/encrypt it etc still apply and so you'd still have to block MSN.
Also, as was pointed out on uk.comp.os.linux,
anyone who thinks that
/^\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+$/
is a correct way to match an IP address in a cgi-bin script shouldn't be let near a firewall.
No shadow passwords?/etc/passwd is a+r on all
systems I've ever seen (is Smoothwall different?
I doubt it). That's why you need shadow passwords.
Remember the old/cgi-bin/phf?cat%20/etc/passwd
trick? Having seen the quality of the cgi scripts
in smoothwall, do you want to promise that there's
nothing similar in there?
Where I work we've just spent 160,000 UK pounds on a backup system like the one described above. Tape library, big Sun box, gigabit cards, the
works.
The major cost was in the software, not the hardware. We looked at the free software option Amanda but it was too linux/unix specific.
We needed support for Win2k, NT, Solaris, Linux, Oracle DBs and more. So we had to get the serious cost software.
And we only specificed a 4 TB backup capacity (though with some room to grow). That's not a particually large lot of data these days.
The suggestion of just mirroring stuff to another disk is a good one, but doesn't really provide enterprise level backup. Unless your mirrored disk is off-site. Then you just move the cost from backups to networking:(

This isn't a new idea - NetApp boxen have done this for years. It is a really, really handy idea for a fileserver though.
