On imaged systems, it's a bad idea for them not to access the network on first boot.... that means legwork after the image process. I would recommend configuring a DHCP client (with DHCP assigned hostname.)
For me, this is all I need, as each machine can be assigned statically via the DHCP server.
Still, IMO Kickstart is a much better methodology. Still better is PXE controlled kickstart mini-distros.... (Ala Ghost/Image Blaster Image partitions.) But I have yet to see someone do this.
Each console has a single Wireless Controller if only because even having 3 chargers is a big deal in a cabinet. However, if your cabinet has a free drawer you could probably get 6-7 chargers in a 32 inch TV cabinet drawer. I don't have a whole lot of room for even chargers so having friends over to be able to use the extra 3 slots on my consoles is a big deal, so I just pull the cords outa the closet for the time being, and the ensuing spiderweb traps all from passing through the living room.
If chargers were smaller, or perhaps even controllers smaller this wouldn't be such a big deal. But having to put the whole controller into a charging station is a passive waste of space, as opposed to the active waste of space of cords (wrap up controller, store in cabinet/desk/etc etc.)
ICQ and AIM the top two messagers both allow you to appear offline, and still be able to initiate messages. I have used this functionality for many years during work hours, or while I don't want to be bugged by a quick "UH-OH" or Aim chime and a 5-10 minute conversation.
I thought the misassociation of a famous confidence trickster's words to PT Barnum was common knowledge... I mean this was stated in the A&E biography by numerous historians, as well as in the History Channel recanning of the same interviews.
However, just because PT didn't say it, doesn't mean it wasn't true. But really, we're the suckers in the end... Since we've all got to pay higher rates now.
Well, it's beyond hope now... but it was good to begin with. It had the potential to be a new genre, but it really just extended the current Fantasy-RPG style of gameplay to space (rpg-in-space) sure, there's a bit of trade element and experience based upon your exploration of the known universe (very cool, not too difficult to imagine but the first time I've seen it in a graphical mud.)
Really I'm tired (as well as many others I suppose) of the hack+slash forever pointlessness. Not to mention the horribly pathetic issue with EQ of waiting for many RL days for virtual items (gah someone castrate the person who came up with that revenue-model.) Hopefully there will be some changes drastically in the "treadmill" model of character development. Lemme tell ya, if I have to kill 12,000 mobs to get to a theoretically more enjoyable endgame one more time I'm gonna smack all of mud-dev.
They're better than their older cards. If I do remember correctly I had issues primarily with S3 cards when they were at the height of their popularity. I avoided them as much as I could, if only because in the early 90's the 200 dollar card capped out at 1meg of dram, which wasn't that bad but it was a hassle for some things.
Has been dead a long time, so stop beating it. 802.11b is not a standard, Linksys has their own proprietary 22mb scheme. 802.11g uhh Dlink/Linksys etc all have their "own" 72+ mb g network products. Even the standards have been bastardized with (I'm guessing) compression layers. WEP is horrible, there are ways to get around it (that require nearly as much bitspace overhead per/packet) ssh, openvpn, winblows vpn, ipsec etc etc.
So what if china wants their own wireless standard, there are so damn many already, one more quasi-secure wireless network isn't going to be revolutionary.

I must agree to this list, also since my subscription has run out (I had a 5000 page subscription) I have not recieved any mod points. Perhaps it's because of my recently downmodded posts. If that is the case, then there needs to be a change in the method of handing out mod points. People are not always 100% karma whores, and if karma whores are the only ones getting mod points then this system is stupid.
Before someone starts including TC on a Linux router with a pretty interface/enclosure. It's already pretty damn simple with the Arbitrator which (thankfully) the source is open to some extent. I'm sure someone else has comeupwithsomething (that is if you don't like cisco/3com or other hardware based systems.)
I don't see how this apparently diverse market of Free/cheap QoS is going to somehow limit VoIP? End to end QOS is necessary, so ISPS will provide it, Why? Because your ISP will be your provider, and if I'm not mistaken, they can run the QOS on the connection they provide you.
I have to agree, for those not interested in historical reference these books are not for them. Also, for those who dislike Horation Hornblower these books are not for you. I read them all cover to cover, and the plot is not as bland as tim makes it out to be. The personal strife the main character must endure and STILL be patriotic/heroic is unique, as well as the character interaction between a FEMALE officer of a national navy and the male patriarch of a Male dominated society.
Not to mention the casual humor snuck in regarding this backwards world's history and beliefs (Their culture idealizes the SWORD based upon old samauri films from a few hundreds of years before.)
Just this casual interplay is great, and it is definitely not all Happy-go-lucky hero wins every battle scenario. Honor faces many difficulties including the murder/assasination of her love, the crippling of her Empathic friend and the loss of nearly half of her body (replaced of course with implants) including her eye. She also faces torture at the hands of her ruthless enemies.
Yes, she does always LIVE at the end of the book, but then again, if she didn't they wouldn't call her "The Salamander"
I second that, as it is MANY MANY people have tried to break deep freeze, and none have been succesful at attacking the way it works, only at the bios/preboot level. I have installed deep freeze on a 98/2k system dropped to prompt-fdisked and or formatted and rebooted to find the system working fine. alt.2600 had a few people trying to break it as well to no avail.
At the most basic level this would work: You can include a script to run in the startup folder that does the following: rem -- net use h: \\SERVERNAMEORIP\SHARE echo [INSERTCOMPUTERNAMEHERE] had the following user login:>>H:\LOGINLOG.TXT echo %USERNAME% >> H:\LOGINLOG.TXT date/T >>H:\LOGINLOG.TXT time/T >>H:\LOGINLOG.TXT rem -- every user that logged into the domain would need write access to the share tho.
gah to reply and be labeled a troll, or not to reply and to let this sit unanswered.... decisions decisions. I have not karma whored, if you notice, I troll, flame, and even OT almost as often as I post something inteligible.
Hopefully I can end this with a simple translation of my original post (which was moderated off topic) I for whatever reason left out my final line of reasoning which was more of a quip than anything:
"Seeing as how gold is a LITTLE expensive, this may be the only way libraries could afford a long lasting digital medium."
or some such addition, however as my sig so aptly describes I was most likely not 100% in control of my faculties at the point of creative inspiration.
You just can't BUY them in california. It doesn't say that posession of them is illegal. So I guess for any entrepeneur in nevada/oregon who sell tax free cigarrettes they will now also have tax free glowfish.
Behind me are two dot matrix printers that spit out about 2500 pages every few hours. That, and my desk is ALWAYS full of stupid "SO AND SO CALLED YOU" notes.
Some people refuse to use email. NOT that using email is any good either, as some people don't understand the utility of it and use it like IM.
What I keep seeing over and over again occuring to linux is something that (unfortunately) corporations anticipate. Seeing as how we continually describe the Free software MOVEMENT as a movement and not as an organization it limits the scope of influence Linux can truly have.
Unless there is a Software Alliance or even a Community Alliance where we throw down our entrenched religious Debates (VI! NO, EMACS!) (BSD! NO, LINUX!) (MANDRAKE! NO, REDH-er FEDORA!) and say Screw you software-patent-mandating-closed-source-installing -extreme-License-and-DRM-shoehorning bastards. We are a community and there is no state that governs us all. Who is to say you couldn't run a CVS tree with a published SSH console to VIM and run all your coding on that little gun platform offshore the UK. Or hell, get a laptop put an ISUN on it and fire it into space with a nice big Yagi Wifi antenna pointed at Linus's current GPS coordinates.
Litigation won't stop the movement, it will only stop the legal adoption thereof. And I'm so SURE developing countries will listen to the US court ruling.
If anything this is giving microsoft time enough to lock people in with their horrendous DRM. And a big enough cash incentive for SCO that the current CEO will allow it to come to a head, if only so that he can cash out when he sees the train coming straight at him.
Pale blue dot much. Wow the solar system simulator really puts things in perspective. Thank America and Russia's donations to the space industry, as well as Nazi-Germany for the work we bought from the V2, with the promise of immunity.
Or, maybe we could thank the Chinese and their contributions to the first explosions of inspiration. (heh)
Well, whatever If we can get to the NEARest planetary body and settle it MAYBE we can think about doing so to mars..... but I wouldn't hold my breath. Not until the acid rain falling periodically around the world actually starts eating through the oil rigs, and other foundations of "natural" resources we plunder the long dead veins of the earth for.
Not that currently there are any better options (most would require a larger research base, and battery style storage is not feasible as this damages the environment upon eventual disposal of said batteries.)

We already have a branch of government to make it.
Even if the supreme court gets to re-write our constitution, it doesn't mean it's right.

It really depends on your situation.

fdisk /mbr does not kill deep freeze.
Nor does manually whiping out the partition containing deep freeze.
Sorry tim, mistook you for the author. ...
