  1. Re:how well O'Reilly deals with dead parrots on The Python Cookbook · · Score: 1

    And the press release which includes a great interview with Larry and Guido.

    (For those a little slow on the uptake, check the date on the press release before you run out and buy the book)

  2. Re:I don't want to buy MS products/. on Xbox Receives Linux Mandrake 9.0 · · Score: 1

    I've got to agree. There's just something slightly twisted and wrong about buying hardware from Microsoft to run Linux on it.

  3. Re:Create own CA, don't just self-sign on Cheap SSL Certificates for Small Websites? · · Score: 3, Informative

    The parent post is exactly how we do it in our organization (a non-profit with not a lot of money for certs, but lots of things we want to run over SSL). Once someone trusts your root cert you're good to go.

    I mostly figured out how to set it up from the Apache mod-ssl module FAQ at http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_faq.html#ToC29. BTW, mod-ssl comes with a nice little signing script that is quite handy.

    Once I got the hang of it with Apache sites I used the technique in the FAQ almost verbatim to produce certs for our IMAP and SMTP servers.

    You might also check out http://www.openca.org/. I'm not using it, but if I was starting over I would be looking into it.

  4. PS2 problems with lotr dvd on Lord of The Rings DVD, Now or Later? · · Score: 1

    I'm on my 2nd copy of LOTR on dvd and neither will play all the way through on my ps2. They both start to skip on ch 23/24 and then stop playing with a "unable to read disk" message. On sony's web site i've seen posts from several others describing the exact same problem at the same spot on the disk. I don't know if it's a bad batch of disks, or a glitch with the player but you might want to save your $ if your only dvd player is a ps2.

  5. Just in time on OS X Security Update: Apache, SSL and SSH · · Score: 4, Informative

    Traffic on bugtraq the last few hours indicates there is now a worm in the wild exploiting the Apache chunked-encoding vulnerability. http://online.securityfocus.com/archive/1/279529/2 002-06-25/2002-07-01/0
