You can restart sshd without killing your connect. When you SSH to a box the sshd process spawns a copy for your connect. You can restart the primary process without it dropping the existing connections.
Not sure if it REALLY is, but Symantec has a serious problem with counterfeit copies. I get TONS of spam trying to sell me all sorts of Symantec products that are surely counterfeit. I've read before they have a support nightmare from people that buy them.
It's been a busy week. I see a lot of people confusing the different worms/viruses running around.
SoBig.F - A virus. Exploits no vulnerability in the OS. It only executes when a user runs the attachment. It sends out emails to everyone in your address book and makes the source another address from your book. It runs its own mail server, so filter port 25 outbound.
Blaster - A worm. This exploits the Windows RPC bug and self propogates to any unpatched system.
Welchia/Nachi - A worm. Also exploits the Windows RPC bug and attempts to clean machines infected by Blaster. Unfortunately, it tries to find other systems by doing random pings which can saturate a network.
Yes you were. Because it isn't. Usually faster cars require better gas. Also, cheap gas is sometimes cheap for a reason...it isn't always the octane they say it is.
Put DSS on a big TV and compare to my TW digital cable. DSS is junk on a big TV...the pixelation is FAR worse than TW cable. I pick up DSS in the fall/winter for NFL Sunday Ticket and sometimes I can barely read the names on the uniforms.
Plus, TW gives me more hi-def channels..so that's a plus.
I like some hard buttons..things like Channel UP/Down and Volume. But with ALL hard buttons you hit a wall on redoing the remote. The idea is to set up the remote for how you use it, not just to merge all 85 buttons from the normal remotes to 1. That's hard to do with all hard buttons.
Touch screen isn't too bad. After a while you learn what to hit you can do it without looking.
Spend the money on a Philips Pronto. It really does replace them all, and my home theater is fairly complex. The programming software sucks, but it pretty much does it all.
Old DVDs had a lot of artifacts. The publishers were still figuring out how the compression worked. New DVDs rarely have artifacts. One thing you have to remember is that, like most things, you get what you pay for.
If you spend $69 on a DVD player don't expect perfect video. I had a cheap player before and it was the weak link in my home theater chain. I upgraded to a nice, but expensive, Pioneer Elite 47Ai and it looks FANTASTIC. The bigger the TV the more difference you'll notice, of course. A good $200 player will satisfy almost everyone.
A router without an addressable interface is of very little use. A switch on the other hand, shouldn't have an IP reachable interface (to the public). Very large difference.
I've been working with the Compaq TC1000 TabletPC for a while. We got in several for the office and I got one for me to look at. At first it just seems to be a small notebook...but once you use it for its intended purpose you'll see it has advantages. The longer battery life is nice. The Compaq screen can detach from the keyboard to make it smaller and lighter. I normally carry it like a legal pad. The handwriting recognition is EXCELLENT and I can't write worth a damn. It's much better than any PDA I've used, and this is without even using any special type of writing. It's also comfy to sit back on the couch and read your favorite sites with a small device.
Give me a good 16 hours of battery life and I'll be real happy. The only real downside I've found is the screen. Since it is a touch screen it is not as clear as a normal LCD monitor. But, at least on the Compaq, it never gets fingerprints on it like most PDAs.
I agree with that. The Garmin V has one of the highest resolution displays you can get. It was much more detailed than the color models, since they all use low res.
It's surprising how hard true route planning is to find on a GPS. The V is the only hand-held GPS device that does it. Else you get in to the car mounted devices. I didn't go the PDA route due to battery use. A PocketPC battery doesn't last nearly as long as a GPS unit....though I would like the nice color screen on the PDA.

That's AWD, not 4x4 (4WD). AWD is fine on slick roads give it up on deep snow. They don't have a transfer case for lower gearing .
No? Then it's crap. We need HD DVRs.
Somehow I doubt getting source code from Mandrake is going to be hard to do. Oh..I don't know... Their FTP site maybe?
The source has to be available to you, not included in the box.

Correct. It's just up to the user.

Worms self-propogate. A virus only propogates when run by a user.
Logging. You want your log files to have the right time. I've used my router log files many times.
Yes you were. Because it isn't. Usually faster cars require better gas. Also, cheap gas is sometimes cheap for a reason...it isn't always the octane they say it is.
It's not a rating of who has less patches. It's a rating of the security feature set that the OS includes.
Patch your stuff and for goodness sake put up a firewall! RPC port open to the word? Why?!

I'd like to see this become standard on notebooks. I'm a lot more concerned with stolen notebooks than I am with the RIAA....

Uhm... boxed software was around long before MS started the trend. As much fun as it is to blame EVERYTHING on Microsoft I think this is a stretch.

If the interface isn't addressable, how does a packet get to the next hop?
A router without an addressable interface is of very little use. A switch on the other hand, shouldn't have an IP reachable interface (to the public). Very large difference.
A switch shouldn't be available to target from the outside, or even the inside. They should be on a seperate management VLAN.

How much was your PDA + Software? My GPS w/ software was $300.
Next time get it in writing. Promises don't mean a damn thing.
