not only that... but most of the time it also means "warning: about to be replaced with better item at current price" ; or "Will no longer be supported by manufacturer soon"
My problem has always been that many of the reate claim processors are using systems that dont fully comply with the recent post office rules wrt the requirement that addresses at "thrid party/non USPS" postal box places must have a certain format for the name and address containing the letters "PMB" in the address. It CANNOT be "suite" or "apt". (# alone or PMB then the number is valid)
Important item to note is that if you dont have the line correct, THE POSTAL SERVICE WILL NOT DELIVER THE MAIL TO THE LOCATION / and even it it makes it to the distributer, they are bound by postal regulations to mark it "return to sender: Must have PMB#"....
This applies not only to rebate places but to any place that sends you bills/checks/payments/etc..
I have seen the problem with mail sent by a well known retailer that every 3-4 months their system drops the PMB from my address and puts APT in there... [they use a system wide mail program to "verify" address correctness... that is supposed to be compliant with the postal system... allows them to get a cheaper rate]. I have called/emailed several times... Last time I sent a message to the postal service to have THEM send the retailer the information....
My question is WRT to many of the Network Accessible/Attached Storage devices like some the Iomega NASes which are essentially windows 2000 server machines what would need to be patched against some of these issues.
In some cases it is not possible to simply do a windows update since the devices are "uber-tweaked" as you say.....
You have not been in LA county traffic or else you would not say that...
The information could also include detours and "planned closures".... [think TV studios and stuff like the bazillion ceremonies that that have around LA]
bet you havnt been on the #linux channel in the early days of efnet IRC?
stuff like that used to happen all the time...
[as well as ascii bomb xlpoits and telling some poor slob that the way to defrag his HD was to use rm -rf / & >/dev/null]
[disclaimer: I did not do any of those things; but have seen the rm -rf message; and by the time that other responded "DONT DO THAT" it was too late]...
aahh... the good old days.... when time was abundant and free.....
My question is does this board, or ANY SOUND CARD work in a 64bit/ 66mhz / 3.3 volt pci slot like the one that the intel SCB2 "server" boards have. I have not been able to get a clear answer from either creative nor intel... and the last non-compatible card I tried in one of the boxes fried the power supply [yes; repeatable]...
All that means is that they would have to make it a requirement that the device(s) be plugged into a switched 100mb network so that the units dont adversly affect your other networked devices much...
give subscribers with the top %10 karma and no "subscriber penalties" the ability to mark an article as a dupe... if an article is marked as a dupe by more than lets say at least 10 subscribers, then someone at slashdot gets notified immediately.
[subscriber penalty: if a subscriber abuses this ability more than 3 times, they get their ability to mark dupes revoked]
When I used to live in Paris, it was entertainig to listen to the "Tourists" who for some reason did not want to think that there ARE others that understand english and might get offended... [or that the person they are trying to "bargain" with doesnt understand their conversation about how much they are willing to pay... etc...
btw: The "fast food" restaurants like Burger King and McDOnalds are MUCH better in Europe than they are in many parts of the US..
With the current information age one must expect that anything on the internet can be made public at a later date/time.
Just as an example: Google. When google first started out, their database did not have many of the older usenet messages. They asked for, and in some cases paid for, any old backups that contained usenet spools that they did not have.
This can also be expanded to mailing lists that inititally were not archived, but were then archived or re-posted on google/gated to usenet or other web archives. (example: older bugtraq messages from a while back)
Does anyone really know what happens to their ISPs/companys mail spool backup tapes? I personally know of at least three locations that keep backups for at least 1 year... (at least one of which is changing their policy very soon as a result of the US patriot act.. they are changing it to only keep backups for a VERY short period)... An interesting read is the "Searching and Seizing Computers and Obtaining Electronic Evidence in Criminal Investigations" document
http://www.cybercrime.gov/s&smanual2002.htm
specifically the part "section B, 3- Reasonable Expectation of Privacy and Third-Party Possession"; 7th paragraph....
BTW: IANAL.... but still an interesting read considering that the requirements for criminal investigations are supposed to have a higher standard than others.....
Or p2p programs like shareaza that allow for magnet links..
From the shareaza site (http://www.shareaza.com/)
"Shareaza was the first client to introduce true web-linking to the Gnutella network, making it easy to place links to shared files on web pages and other dynamic media.
You can now place a link on a web page (or other document) which when clicked will open Shareaza and automatically search for and download the selected content. It's that simple!
Shareaza supports P2P standard magnet: URIs, along with network specific gnutella:// URIs, and several more just in case. What do they look like? Here's a link to the latest Shareaza download:
When you click a P2P link, Shareaza shows a friendly "what do you want to do" window where you can choose to either download the file directly, or just do a search for it"
Thats because there are MANY legitimate small buisnesses that use [A/H/S/I]DSL lines for their network access {legally that is; example: SBC offers 5 static IPs for a basic buisness account and they allow you to do whatever you want with it... BUT the reverse dns points to SBCs name and not whatever the small buisness uses for their domain/mailserver name}
Several of the antispam checks may fail on the "double ip reverse" checks {where the server looks up the reverse, then looks up the name returned; and both must match}
Most people say to use the ISPs "smart relay" for your mailserver in situations like this; but then if your isp mailserver gets blocked, so does yours...
There are hardware load-balancers that allow the machine to keep the same front end ip address, and dynamically pass the tcp connection to the back end server farm.
cisco used to have one called the localdirector http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc /pd/cxsr/400/in dex.shtml
Dont always believe what the manufacturer is saying. They most probably meant that THEY dont support it in linux....
for ieee1394a its called sbp2...
and linux DOES have support for it (the standard)... the problem is drives that DONT follow the standard.... http://www.linux1394.org/sbp2.html for usb it called the mass-storage class... and same issue applies. Linux supports the STANDARD... which some manufacturers may not fully follow....
The way that I see it is that they are giving away the source so that others can see it and are sure that it is secure and reliable.
Learning how to use that source is what they are charging for. Since it {the documentation} is distributed as a separate item, it can have whatever license/restriction that they want for it since they wrote it. SInce it is clearly stated, I have no real problem with that.

actually the newer worms are using 445 (SMB over TCP). And yes, my IDS devices have seen a HUGE increase of scanning activity on/for that port.... most probably due to the events mentioned in Certs CA-2003-08 found at http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2003-08.html

most of the US public does not realize just how much sugar coating goes on in the "news" that they see....
Examples:
CNN has 3 versions:
* CNN for the US market
US mainly; sugar coated
* CNN "International" for the US market
International news, but sugarcoated.
* CNN International
For the rest of the world.
Time magazine has a US and an international edition for the same reasons...
In some cases the SAME PROGRAM/ARTICLE can have almost a completely different skew on the SAME events; written/presented by the SAME reporter(s)...
only problem is that with many of the printer models, the warrenty is void if you DO use one of those refubished items....
Now if you are using it for an out-of-warrenty / second hand device... then using the alternative ones seems like a good idea...
Nero InCD {which comes with Nero 5.5.x }can do that with CD-RW, CD-MRW, DVD-RW or DVD+RW.

There is a fairly usable client that does both SFTP and FTP over SSL.
