actually, I was commenting on MS trying to pass their shadow copy feature off as offering the same functionality. you'd have seen that if you everything I posted instead of just that sentence.
that was one of the good features of Netware. MS added the shadow copy feature in Windows 2003, but it pretty much just takes a snapshot of the share at user defined intervals, so it isn't quite the same.
it could be easy to script something similiar for Linux shares, but it really isn't much more useful than a good tape backup.
they've also been historically antagonistic to the Brits, so they were working in their own self interests. they weren't helping the U.S., so much as they were hurting Britain... and history repeats itself?
So then why do you complain about Old Europeans not supporting your wars?
heh, when did I complain about Europeans not supporting the war? I could really care less if the war is supported or not. I can tell you this, IMO, I find that the U.N. and those Old Europeans have been very ineffectual dealing with the situation. they have had 12 years, after all.
that said, I'd prefer that we remove all sanctions, remove our troups and let the little dictator have his way. let the countries around Iraq deal with him this time.
When it comes to clean up the mess you prepare it seems the rest of the world is very welcome to you.
I've prepared no mess. I don't have any designs on the "rest of the world". quite frankly, I feel that the U.S. should maintain a few strong relationships, but otherwise take on an isolationist policy. if the "rest of the world" doesn't care for us, perhaps we shouldn't deal with them anymore.
unforunately, the U.S. has never been a democracy, so we deal with the republic we have. we elect people, they carry on their agenda.
the rest world just seems to hate Bush, so comments like this seem to be the rule. BUT, the American people love freedom and love being left the hell alone, so don't be silly. escalation of power is the least of our worries, atm. we survived Joseph McCarthy, and that ordeal was orders of magnitude worse that this.
we also set the stage for the Taliban. unfortunately, there wasn't too a lot to choose from, either time. the Soviet troops were just as guilty of human rights violations in Afghanistan as either of those sects. the only difference is the Soviet Union stood down after it was over.
hmmm, I find it very odd that he was universally accepted as a brutal dictator when he invaded Kuwait, but these days he seems to be the victim of propaganda.
I feel bad about the war for the Iraqi people, but I can't say the same about the government.
he's saying that smbmount depends on smbfs support built into the kernel, the linux kernel has this, Solaris does not. smbclient works fine on Solaris, but it's definately nice to mount a filesystem as opposed to using a client...
if we're judging licenses merely by commercial success, then the GPL is obviously defeated, as well. MS's EULA must be the most enticing license business-wise, going by your logic...
hehe, smbmount doesn't mount a windows partition, it mounts SMB shares...
sharity and sharity-light can do this, but the last time I tried sharity-light on Solaris, it was a little weak...

install freebsd... cvsup, make buildworld, make buildkernel, shutdown now, make installkernel, make installworld, reboot, cd/usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4, make install clean distclean, cd../kde3, make install clean distclean, xf86cfg, tweak your XF86Config to add "drm", install mozilla, download OpenOffice(cause the port sucks)... kill a few getty's, a few unnecessary daemons, etc...
after all that, the responsiveness of FreeBSD will easily blow the doors off of any Linux distro... hell, even before all that, IMO.
Lindows does give ftp access to at least some(if not all, no time or interest to compare packages vs. src packages) of the sources via a link('Modified source code.') in the "My Products" page after you've registered. considering they just use an IP, I guess they don't want it to be common knowledge, but do indeed make sources available.
however, they're under no obligation to give sources to the general public under the GPL, or even provide source code with the distribution. the only thing they are required to do is provide source code IF you request it, then it must be made available under the GPL. the method of distributing the sources is not covered, either... you're just too used to the free as in beer approach that most distros take.
read the FAQ, looks like you'll be able to run about any IMAP client for basic email stuff, but you're going to need the KDE client or the Insight connector for Outlook. oh well, still cheaper than exchange licensing.
too bad that no one else is working on an opensource server like HP OpenMail/Samsung Contact.
no doubt, all I'm saying is that you have to pay your dues before anything magickal is going to happen. this guy hasn't been playing this game for several years, and I wonder exactly how much experience he had if he ditched so easily.
of course certs aren't what the 'MCSE factory' type schools want you to believe they are, I don't disagree.
My point was, since I've been in the field, I've done everything from driving a forklift to picking a chicken bone out of a user's keyboard. I seriously doubt that getting myself a business license and a card would have somehow made those first few years any easier.
if you ever want a corporate job, you'll find that your business doesn't mean anything to that mindset. they'll just gloss over that section of your resume, then ask for what they consider 'real' experience. I'm coming out of a consulting position and I'm finding it a little difficult to have some of that experience taken seriously.
if you have massive accomplishments or you're content with building clone servers in your basement, then the business card might work out. otherwise, you could hurt yourself by taking this advice.
agreed, 'cept the lab thing never worked too well for me. it's definately a good idea to have the hardware that you'll be working with, though.
the solaris classes would actually be good, if someone needs to learn basic Unix commands. I took the Solaris 2.6 tests way back when. as I remember it, it was mainly basic stuff like NIS, NIS+,/etc/nsswitch.conf,/etc/hosts, mount, NFS... the rest was mainly installation methods and openboot. judging from the test, a person with zero experience with Unix would benefit from the classes... if you know the basics, don't bother.
I've never seen a Cisco class that wasn't specifically designed to pass a test.
even without competition, there will still be problems.
no, I don't think so. we're competing against diseases, against nature, against ourselves, against each other. what problems can we solve if we eliminate the need to compete?
and even without countries, there can be competition too.
you missed my point entirely. the original poster decided that we should quit competing against each other. I was merely pointing out that competition is the way we evolve. pointing out that competition can exist without countries is redundant. of course it can, but should it? have we proved that one form of economy or government so outshines the next that it should replace all? of course not, each of the competitive approaches have merits and will hopefully allow the whole of humanity to evolve beyond any of the approaches.. and the cycle repeats itself.
considering the only really important competition is survival, without competition, there will be no problems.

it only used MSDOS(or PCDOS or DRDOS) for bootstrapping, Netware was never a "modified version of MS DOS".
well, looks like Dell will be selling upgrades for around $30.

think I'm going to pass on this one. considering I've been kicking myself since I bought it, I think I'll save the money for a new iPaq.
just had a look at the Dell support site. no new ROMs yet, but it does look like you can order an Axim with 2003 as of this morning.

or haven't you heard of the Patriot Act? evidently not....
compare that to the professional "violator of women" employed by the Iraqi government and it doesn't seem like the U.S. is really all that bad.

it goes farther back than that. you have disk administrator all the way back to NT 3.1.
