Nssldap will have to be recompiled for schema mapping, since AD doesn't follow a standard LDAP schema. Last I checked FC2 and FC3 already had compiled nssldap this way, so no recompile was necessary.
MS Services for Unix is needed to modify the AD schema and for a couple of added screens in the admin tools for AD, to allow Unix attributes to be added.
If you want to be able to change passwords from *nix, you will need to setup SSL, since password changes can only occur over SSL in AD.
Just google on "AD nssldap". I have had my office running this way for almost 4 years, with no problems.
IMO, SCO was convinced to start these lawsuits by some other entities. It wouldn't surprise me if said entities even produced SCO's original "evidence" that they were showing off at their trade show.
SCO would have been an easy target for manipulation, since they were still pissed about the whole Monteray project falling apart.
The motive: Looking back 15+ years to the, AT&T v. Berkeley case, which ultimately had the effect of slowing (almost killing) the adoption of *BSD and helping SysV. The entities helping SCO would love to see the exact same thing happen to Linux. Unfortunately, for them, it looks like that scenerio isn't playing out this time.
As for SCO continuing on... I think their stuck without a "dance partner", and they really are lost.
In our office it would be easier too get rid of the one person that uses the printer 90% of the time. He can't read ANYTHING on the screen, it has to be printed out.
If you have the room, a 3Si or 4Si is your best bet. These printers where built like tanks. You can pick up low mileage (150K-200K prints) one for ~$100 on ebay. Try to find one local, because shipping could cost you another ~$100.;)
Neither of the given examples are very innovative.
DDD was done 15+ years ago with CodeCenter/ObjectCenter. Boost looks a lot like RogueWave libraries.
Most OSS projects are playing catchup with some product in the commerical world, innovation is hard to find. A couple that come to mind are Struts and Cocoon. Both of these frameworks where different from any other web framework, at the time.
Your lucky. My city government charges the highest rate of income tax of all the city governments in this area (2.5% compared to 2%), plus the highest property taxes in the area. Even with all the taxes they collect, I still have to pay extra for trash collection, which other cities don't.
Thankfully our last child has graduated, so we can finally move some where else.
"Government would do alot better job in some instances"
The only "job" government does better is spend money! Governments should do as little as possible, since they are the most costly way to get anything done.
"Personally, I would like to see what happens if a group of people start an experimental town centered around their own self interests vs the town as a whole...sort of like a reverse hippie commune."
Sort of self-defeating, since one of the benefits of a town is for the "common good", excluding any potential tax benefits.
I built Checkfree's first OFX parser, and yes we rolled our own. After looking at the DTD's, and finding numerous mistakes, we decided that building our own would be easier, and IF the DTD's ever got cleaned up, we could use an SGML parser, in a latter version.
I started doing this when I first got a cell phone, 8 years ago.
I keep my home line for "home phone" numbers, put an answering machine on it, and turn the ringer off. If somebody really wants to talk to me on that line, they can leave a message, and if I REALLY want to talk to them, I'll get back with them.
I never give my cell phone # out to anyone except friends and anyone I know it isn't going to put it on some list.
For ~$20 a month it's an easy way to avoid the whole telemarketing mess.
Not sure what I will do when cell providers start selling their directories...
The problem is you have to drop the idea that man was actually meant to achieve anything. Once you do that, then the fact that we did achieve a porn distribution network seems pretty fantastic!

You were lucky. I forget what they used in '86, I don't believe the Mac II's were out yet, probably Mac Plus's.
The Mac II was a cool box, for the time. It was the first truly expandable Mac, and a choice of monitors.;)
I have forgiven Apple for the Lisa/Lisa 2/Mac XL (mine still boots BTW), and own three current Macs.

A/UX was the first commerical Unix for the Mac.
When I started at VT in the '85, one of the requirements for incoming CS majors was a Mac XL (rebranded Lisa 2), with a version of SysV.
That was a HUGE fiasco, the machine was cancelled before VT even started giving them out. So our class was stuck with this huge paperweight, that might run Mac SW or might not, MacWorks was good, but not perfect.
Working through the judical process to get a law declared unconstitutional is FAR better (and completely different) than someone suing McDonald's because they are too stupid to realize that coffee is hot and they could burn themselves with it.
Just because Congress passes a law, doesn't mean it's Constitutional for them to do so. Only the Judical branch can decide that, and so far they haven't had the chance.
Jefferson believed that Constitution did not give the Congress the right to set up "The Bank of the United States" in 1791.
He is wrong on the prisioners, they should just be put to death.
His point on the Federal Reserve is it has no right to exist. The Constitution states that only Congress can make and regulate currency. The Federal Reserve is not Congress and therefore produces and controls money illegally.
The 1st amendment does not guarantee separation of church and state, as you state. Atheists use it to promote this concept, but what it is doing is guaranteeing that the government doesn't interfere with a persons right to practice whatever religion they wish to.
I would suggest reading Badnarik's book on the Constitution, "Good to Be King", very enlightening. It should be required reading for HS civic/govt courses.
Sadly, basic security measures seem to escape some. Mostly I would say anyone deploying databases this way deserves what they get, unfortunately I do buy things on the Internet and it scares me to think how many of those sites do exactly this...
From a security perspective, allowing databases to be directly accessed from the Internet is a very bad idea, root or not. There should always be at least one layer of security (DMZ) between the Internet and database servers.
I hope you don't store CC #'s or any other senstive information in any of your DB's...
I have, it's one that I keep an eye on. The problem is I need good reverse engineering. Everytime I try to use Argo for this it locks up halfway through. Together and Rational are the only tools I have found that will handle large reverse engineering projects, and Rose sucks in so many other ways, it's completely unusable.
Argo is great for forward engineering, and if all I had to do was forward, it would be my choice.
No, I actually run different browsers (and multiple windows in each browser). I have to verify that my app works with different browsers (which also means I use a win32 machine to connect to it, and sometimes even run VirtualPC, which is another hog).
I agree Together is a hog (and worse it seems to bleed memory. I usually have to shut it down 2 or 3 times a day, because it becomes completely unresponsive), unfortunately I haven't found a UML modeling tool that is any better. There are some Eclipse plugins that are showing some promise, but aren't quite there. I would never consider doing development in Together, but I also have used Together for years, and only know it as a UML tool. Even Together's Eclipse plugin isn't as functional as the standalone version.:(
I used to feel the same way (running ant at the command line), I have become addicted to code completion the debugger, and context senstive editor though, and can't see myself going back to vi, for development.;)
I have 1.5GB in a 17" PB, and I run low occasionally. I also run Eclipse, Together Architect, Postgres, a couple of browsers, Fire, and Mail, which usually runs fine, but if I try to debug, through Eclipse, that usually pushes me over the top.
Now would I run all of this on a mini? No. But I may use iMovie on one, and I wonder if 512MB would be enough to do this and something else at the same time (I hate not multi-tasking).
