InterMapper can monitor anything that responds to SNMP or other TCP/IP queries. For the central monitoring server, it is available now for Mac and Windows, and in beta for Linux.
The second edition appears to be only available in hard copy, for the full purchase price, although there are some chapter excerpts available for download.
Here is a slightly bulked up version of my submission for this story:
Ok first, the official name used to be IEEE-1394, but not surprisingly, eventually they decided to just go with FireWire (which was previously an Apple-only name for the technology). Current version is 1394a which tops out at 400 Mbps, next is 1394b which starts at 800 Mbps.
Apple has been a strong proponent and developer of the technology. Sony also (they like to call it i.Link)
Mostly it is used to connect to DV cams, but you can also use it for other peripherals that need high speed.
I use it for my external hard drive and an external CD burner.
But of course, you could also in theory use it for networking.
Hence, IP-over-FireWire (as compared to say, the current IP-over-Ethernet).
The standard specifying this is RFC 2734. (To be very technical, this only specifies the IPv4 implementation.)
Microsoft supports 1394 and in particular had an IP1394 stack for a while, in ME and now in XP.
The Linux 1394 project has been working on it, but it had a lot of trouble getting off the ground.
And now (finally) IP1394 is available from Apple.
It will be interesting to see if the Apple implementation interoperates with the Microsoft one.
My Master's project is on this topic.
My school page is sadly out-of-date, I need to update it ASAP.
People have also been saying that life orginated with complex inorganic clay matrices. An SF book had that in it a while ago (one moment, googling...)
"Although changes in DNA generate biological diversity, genes are a product of evolution, not its driving force. In fact, geodesic forms similar to those found in viruses, enzymes and cells existed in the inorganic world of crystals and minerals long before DNA ever came into existence. Even water molecules are structured geodesically."

Until US Senators and Representatives actually read email, are at least have grandchildren that read email, there will be no change.
However, since things will transition directly from them all being 60 years old into life-extension technology that will enable them to never retire, things are just going to continue to get worse on the spam front.
That's odd. I got almost the exact same list when I looked at Internet Site Security:
* Clean Underwear from Amazon's Target Store * Ladybug Rain Boots from Amazon's Nordstrom Store * Flannel-Lined Jeans from Amazon's Eddie Bauer Store * Cheetah Print Slippers from Amazon's Old Navy Store
Erm, is there something about computer people I should know? I have this image forming in my mind of thousands of geeks every morning, puting on their clean underwear and flannel-lined jeans, then trooping to work in their ladybug rain boots and finally sitting down in front of the computer and slipping into their cheetah print slippers.
I have seen the IAO... and it is Amazon.com (except the IAO will be less accurate)
You can't use rational proof to combat irrational faith. It just doesn't work. You're not on the same playing field, and you're not even playing the same game.
Rather than wasting money trying to convince unconvinceable people, spend money on education, particularly for children.
People are not, by nature, particularly good at many things. This certainly includes assessment of risks, and may include rational thought. You want to get reasonable people? Raise reasonable people.
To keep a portable copy of the ridiculous number of meetings I get scheduled in Outlook, and to download websites (like Slashdot:) to read on the bus on the way home.
I don't see how this can work. Sure, hard drives get cheaper all the time, but how can they possibly afford to keep up with a wide open "send us spam" request? They'd need petabytes of storage.
The short answer is, to do this you need both machines to agree on the file locking and such, so they don't trash one another's files. This is not something you get built-in to FireWire, nor into most operating systems.
Indeed under the current system any bill not introduced and fully supported by the government in power (the cabinet, specifically) has about 0 chance of ever making it into law.
Slashdot Mirror
InterMapper is what I said the last time someone asked this question on Slashdot.
See my site at Digital Photography - Resources. It has lots of links to reviews and such.

400 Mbps FireWire makes it sound like you will get 4x better than 100Mbps Ether, but in practice you won't.
Gig Ether will do what you want.
If you still want more info on FireWire networking, visit my research page.
Microsoft's SQL Server 2000 Enterprise EVAL is unpatchable and, I think, vulnerable.
Trial Software
I know they say "use in a test environment only" but honestly, how hard would it be for them to release an EVAL that is patchable and/or up-to-date?
I second the vote for RT.
We use it to track all sorts of things - from actual support requests to configuration changes. Good stuff.
DRM is a nice buzzword, but this sounds more like electronic copyright management to me.

Do you know if Unibrain is ever going to release an RFC 2734 compliant FireNet?

They've got gazillions of messages sent to uce@ftc.gov
Why not just make that available to the public for creating training sets for spam?
The idea of a central archive is good, but I don't see why there's a need to reinvent a New! Improved! wheel.
