No doubt. I'll tell you something, I am so damn sick and tired of looking at my IDS/snort logs and seeing IP addresses from China. I swear 75% are from there... and it is a safe bet that another 15% are spoofed/botted but really originated there.
I'm about ready to just start blacklisting the whole damn country.
On another note, anybody else seeing a huge uptick in SIP/VOIP port attacks recently?
I just don't understand how you see a problem with X integration in a web browser, when any self-respecting corporate IT group blocks X at the firewall/gateway.
I know your comment is sarcasm/satire... but seriously, those that use the "free market" argument for justifying H1-B are so ideologically blind it is horrifying. There is NOTHING free market about H1-B system. It is the exact opposite. It is socialist and protectionist policy, but not for the citizens of the country... rather CORPORATIONS. It is CORPORATE socialism!
I use Crashplan too. It is free, easy, and here is the key... easily implements redundancy. The whole point is you can backup to multiple "destinations". It has Mac, Windows, Linux, and Solaris clients. One of the cool things I do is run it headless on my Linux server. I can log into the GUI remotely using port forwarding from my Mac. Here is my backup scheme:
Mac:
a) Directly connected USB drive (which has 2 partitions... I use one partition for Time Machine and one for Crashplan. This is my main/most important machine w/ pics, music, movies, documents, etc.).
b) To my Linux file server. The file server is ClarkConnect (a Redhat/CentOS based Linux distro that does a bunch of cool things by the way).
c) To my work laptop. Runs XP.
Work laptop (WinXP):
a) To my Mac.
b) To my Linux file server.
Netbook (running Win7):
a) To my Linux file server (I hardly keep anything unique/important on it).
Linux file server (ClarkConnect):
a) To my friends file server. I let him use my Linux file server in return.
b) My parents computer. They don't even know it. They use their ridiculously overpowered Dell with Vista as a "super magic email device" and Solitaire machine. I put in an extra big honking HD when they got...and installed free Crashplan. It hums along quietly without them even noticing.
Sorry, my cat brushed the keyboard as I was hitting submit.
Oh that's too easy. Your cat?! Of course you have a Mac. Let me picture you and your life: a matching glass and stainless steel desk, lamp, and chair... that goes so well with your iMac. Square rimmed glasses. All black attire. You listen to Moby. You drive a Subaru Outback or Forester. You work at a bookstore... and your "partner" is a lawyer.
PS - I have a Mac.
What are you talking about? You are just plain wrong... this is the point of the cable card in the US. It descrambles and the current cable card spec (1.0) is not multi-stream, but that is why there are 2 cable cards slots in TIVO (Series 3 and HD). The first slot is/will be multi-stream cable card (2.0) capable for when/if you want/need to go that route.
You are an idiot and have no business posting if you don't know what you are talking about.... and you are scored 5, Interesting.... Uuggghh!
Most Slashdotters can barely manage to get away from their computers and speak to a women... how on earth do you expect them to have actually been married and then divorced:)
Check out http://www.clarkconnect.com/info/info40.php (the upcoming 4.0 release in coming weeks) regarding Kolab and Outlook access, etc. ClarkConnect is a kick butt distro that should be checked out... and with the new features pending for 4.0 it will be even more so.
Check out http://www.clarkconnect.com/ if you are so inclined at all for a pretty darn good and robust solution in terms of a software approach. It does many things including VPN services.
Use this PC to go online and download content, Burn it to CD's and sneakernet it to trusted 100% offline computers. Should the throwaway PC get pwned, just format the hard disk and reload the OS or restore a HD disk image of the PC before it went online for the first time.
A pain in the neck, but more effective (and cheaper) than M$'s solution.
Well now... aren't you a fucking wizard. I bet you went to ITT Tech or Univ. of Phoenix.
I have a better idea. Use an OS that doesn't suck (I prefer OS X.. but to each his own. There are other options).
"Invent" may have been a poor choice of words on my part, but Microsoft led the development of what is today coined as "AJAX".
PS - I'm on board with you regarding the name AJAX and the dummies that think it is a single technology rather then acronym to identify a set of technologies working together.
PPS - I'm not a MS Fanboy.. I use a Mac.
My only advice: do not listen to a bunch of wannabe Optometrists/Opthamologists on/. Go spend the $50 on an eye exam. Consult a professional and follow their advice. Get a second or third opinion if you feel you need it. If you have glaucoma or cataracts, the exam will be absolutely priceless.
And don't go to an Optemetrist until you've gone to an Opthamalogist. Some (not all) Optometrists will do anything to sell you lenses/glasses. You need to see a real doctor (i.e., MD... Opthamologist) to ensure nothing is really wrong.
OK.. who is the giant ASS that modded my post -1 ?! I don't care if I go -10,000 on Karma, I have to say it: Some slashdotters are serious dickheads and totally lack any sense of humor whatsoever.
Peace.
I might get hammered for saying this.. but I would recommend using Software RAID if you are using a recent kernel (i.e. 2.6). FREE and has come along way. CPUs are plenty powerful to handle it. Don't bother w/ most onboard IDE or SATA so called "hardware" RAID controllers. They are troublesome in my experience.
With that said... I agree w/ the above post IF you buy a decent hardware raid controller (general rule of thumb.. not good if 200 bucks or so).
I use an AOpen i855 motherboard w/ a Pentium M proc. There is a newer one from Aopen called i915 also. I use it as a gateway/firewall/server (use a distro called clarkconnect.. http://www.clarkconnect.org/ works wonderfully).
Low power, quiet, cool...

1) Have employees sign typical NDA type document. 2) Have employees read/trained/understand company security policies and procedures. 3) Have employees take periodic (e.g. yearly) ethics training. 4) Let them be professionals.
Heck my company (IBM.. particularly BCS division) gave us USB keys as a little gift not too long ago.
"... non-trivial amount of futzing to just get the god damn file and printer sharing working."
Yeah... right. Click a couple graphical check boxes. That SURE is a lot of futzing. And that is to share YOUR machine via CIFS on a network. NOTHING has to be done... OUT OF THE BOX to access Windows shares.
When was the last time you used a Mac (if ever)? Go away troll.
