They may not exsit/certianly aren't popular because of a simple reason: WAPs aren't the only problem, so it's not a complete and meaningful scan. Lots of laptops have wireless built in and gets owned....since it's plugged into your network you can ingress that way.
The popular scanning solutions include several APs that cover your building/area and passivly listen for WiFi traffic. They are typically permamently mounted and listening.

Yeah...useful would have been giving me a link to some software that lets me see X10 video using the built in wireless on my laptop. I seriously doubt that's going to happen, but I don't really know how X10 video works. If it's just analog 2.4, it's never gonna happen. If they bastardize 802.11b somehow, it MIGHT be possible.

But is is hardly BUILDING anything. It's instructions on assembling (poorly, I might add) an X10 video receiver, a small LCD panel, and a battery. This isn't even the actual source of the story on hot wo build it (it came from 2600....which is even credited on the site).

Yep, It sure does. I inherited a nasty FoxBase app (yes, I said FoxBase) a few years back which really didn't play well with modern hardware/OS/networking. I opend the code up in VFP, and it was running fine. A few weeks later, it had a GUI with no major code revisions....the old text-based interface still worked just fine if someone wanted to use it. And I don really consider myself a coder....I was just a lone sysadmin who needed to make some things happen quickly.
Anybody rememeber that crap from a few years back that VFP was going to become a part of VB? Never heard much about it after a year or so. Gotta love those hardware VFP users.
But overall, this sounds like a much less useful technology than those previous "find out what other people who really like this song listen to" programs..
But wouldn't the accuracy of something like that rely on other people not being lazy with their playlists? I know I am....so I'm not gonna be helping the stats either.
Ummm...that has NOTHING to do with LNP, nor does it have anything to do with Germany in particular.
You move you SIM to another phone and you have the same number, the same CARRIER, usually even the same saved phone numbers. That's how SIM-based phones work.
That's true. A lot of VPN software can be set up to disable non-VPN access to the client when connected to the VPN server, but there is still that window of time when the laptop is on the network but the VPN software hasn't started up yet.
That's why your VPN client distribution should always inclide BlackIce in an unmanaged install configuration so users can't touch and don't know any different.
You do realize that this is not the case, correct?
You do realize that's just your own opinion, right? You don't HAVE to do any security. But if you have sensitive data, a seperate DMZ interface of a firewall (doesn't necessarily have to be it's own firewall, just it's own interace) and users who VPN into the network keep someone who gets a WiFi connection but not VPN credentials from simply 0wning other bokes connected to the APs. At lease when each AP is on its own interface, it severely limits the number of boxen that are exposed at any time.
except the is space is considered classless now, class a,b,c, and the rest of those weird ones are now considered obsolete terms. because other netmasks exist other than/8,/16, and/24.
Of course, but their policy moves at the speed of continental drift. I'm stating original reasons for reservations.....not claiming their continued validity.
Further testing reveals that Windows still uses classful logic to determine whether an IP is 'valid' or not. On attempting to ping 202.59.108.255 from a slew of windows 2000 boxes, tcpdump showed nothing on the other end. An identical test from a unix box showed that it worked just fine.

There will be no more warnings for this type of blantant oversight. I trust it will not happen again.
There are several reasons why blocks are reserved by ARIN. Some of them are reserved because they fall on classful routing boundaries, some were reserved based on wanting to keep contiguous space free for various purposes including but not limited to RIPE and APNIC allocations, allowing flexibinity for large network to renumber out of non-contiguius space, etc.
Don't think I'm sticking up for ARIN. Their policies are poor, mostly undocumentated in their actual application, and their customer service sucks.
0.0.0.0/1 means any address between 0.0.0.1 and 255.255.255.254. 0.0.0.0/8 is much different, meaning any address between 0.0.0.1 and 0.255.255.254. So, basically what I'm saying is that it can mean "all IP addresses (in IPv4 space)" or it can denote a smaller subset of addresses beginning at 0.0.0.1, depending on what subnet mask is applied to it.
The "problem" with using blocks like that are not technical....just like using addresses ending in.0 as valid IP space is also not a problem in the right network blocks.....it's broken sysadmin's understaning of IP that causes issues.
Oh...and there that nasty problem of certian addresses lying on bondaries that cause routers that don't properly understand classless routing to choke, but honestly...how many edge device could possibly be out there that are that dated to still have that problem? At least how many that are in a backbone situation where their being broken would actually effect more than 10 people?
Holding your hand out towards someone who is lookig directly at you while you are holding an automatic weapon is NOT going to be interperted as being "helpful" or telling anyone to "take cover". It looks like a "sit your ass down" gesture to me.
And this is the real problem. That photo never happened. Now we have to decide what a situation that never actually happened means to different people. Isn't conveying ACTUAL events hard and easily skewed enough by what is shown/not shown and what is said/not said that we don't need digital manipulation on top of it?
You've obviously never worked with PSS. If you want this hotfix, they will give it to you for free. You call PSS, say "I'm calling a known issue, Q so-and-so." They email you the hotfix in WinZip format and the password to unzip it.

His point was that in many applications, if you tell them to bind to "0.0.0.0", they map that to INADDR_ANY
You mean there are BROKEN APPLICATIONS is use? Say it ain't so!
Big deal. Whoever gets the 0.0.0.0 block can subnet so their brown apps aren't on the 0.0.0.0/whatever subnet.
Better yet, give it to me. That's would be an easy set of addresses to remember.
