I had some early failures trying to get Berlin up and running on my system -- just compiling the (highly unstable) prereqs was a chore, let alone having to upgrade my compiler to compile Berlin. I hope this time around it doesn't take me a week to even "try" it, because I've been a steady believer in the project (well... any project to replace X).
... definitely have to start growing my own food in my environmentally-sealed biosphere, real soon now. even getting "genetics-engineering-free" crops is no guarantee that pollen from one of these "genetics-engineering-full" fields has not been brought in by wind or carrier pigeon.
shouldn't the ante be on those producing this kind of crop to grow them in contained areas? or is it my responsibility to contain my crops to protect them?
I complete agree that Willow is much better. However, SMG is the "heroine" of the show, and thus my not-so-clever treatment of the "heroine v. heroin" would not have been as valid.
This is not what I asked for -- I have 1 network interface, and clients connecting from 192.168.*, and clients connecting from other IP addresses. Bind 9 (and TinyDNS, by the judge of the other posts in this thread) allow me to do just that, without having multiple interfaces. My DNS server is not also my switch -- it does not live on both networks. It lives on the internal network, and a firewall routes all DNS queries to it from the external network.
Now, why do you need any of the four words you quote to explain/demonstrate the concept?
Thanks for the pointer, but no thanks for the holier-than-thou.
The word "view" I would expect, because with Bind 9, that is what you define to get this behavior. Any software hoping to displace Bind would do well to at least reference its nomenclature when discussing its own features.
The word "horizon" is part of the technical termsplit horizon, which happens to be the technical term describing this behavior, that of providing one "view" to "internal" members of one "subnet", and providing another "view" to members of another "subnet".
From the page FGA: Providing "split horizon" DNS Service you can get a quick overview of what the technical terms mean. I also found on that page a description of what I wanted -- how to provide a "split horizon" DNS service using TinyDNS.
That page does not contain the words "subnet" "view" "horizon" or "internal". So that page hardly shows me how. I've just always found the TinyDNS zone format and configuration to be much harder to use than BIND 9.
Does TinyDNS support internal and external views? By this I mean, can it return a different IP for the host "foo.my.com" based on what subnet a client is connecting from (e.g., return 192.168.10.11 for all clients in 192.168.* and return 4.3.17.45 for all clients outside of that)? If so, I will switch. If not, I need that function of Bind 9.
It is the *use* of that monopoly power to gain unfair advantage over competitors that is prevented. A company can't, for example, use its monopoly in one business area to gain a monopoly in another business area. It can't use a monopoly in water softening systems to force its customers to buy the company's own salt. It can't use its monopoly to prevent competitors from selling their products through independent distributors. It can't sell products at a loss to force competitors out of business.
So Microsoft, having been found guilty of having a desktop operating system monopoly, is further digging a hole for itself by selling the XBox at a loss? Or is this too unrelated a business to fall under anti-trust supervision?

that would be the point. the SAMBA team has worked their ass off reverse-engineering the windows protocol. why would they want anyone to be allowed to build off their work, close the source, and start selling what is essentially the SAMBA team's work?
A book publisher is not forced to publish his work in braille. And internet site is comprised nearly entirely of text and graphics. It is simply one of those things which makes it suck to be blind.
If a government service was available only on the web, then of course that web site must be accessible. But in general, a web site should only have to provide alternate means of access if they value the market they are locking out by not providing that access.
Similar to Playboy publishing a braille version (which it has). They don't have to do it, but when they want to sell to blind people, they realise that blind people probably don't get much out of their normal issue.
Why should Southwest.com be forced to provide an accessible web site? Does Southwest have to send out braille versions of all their newsletters? Sure, apply financial pressure with your business, but what in the world does the government have to do with whether or not Southwest values having blind customers able to visit their web site?
Cool, I was not aware of that. But I don't read anywhere that this word viewer will be updated for future formats, i.e., Office.NET, which will no doubt have a subscription based license.
Not that I'm paranoid, it's just, they're out to get me.
I distribute OpenOffice.org CD's. But when I install it, I do not install any file mappings between.doc and OpenOffice.org, because I do not choose to support the proprietary, closed format.
Face it, AbiWord, KOffice, and OpenOffice.org all support.doc through reverse-engineered hacks and the "hope" that future versions do not break. And the.doc "symptom" is only one of many problems with using proprietary software.
The truly ironic part is the fact that your handle is 'MORTAR_COMBAT', a phrase which comes from the game Warcraft III, which only runs on windows and macOS. It most certainly doesn't run on AIX or Solaris (on which word also does not run as you complained about in your reply).
Methinks thou doth protest too much...
Yup, WC3 runs perfectly on my home computer, running Windows. But Word does not, since I do not own (oops, rent) a copy (oops again, license) of it.

I had a lot of trouble compiling on FreeBSD, but that was quite some time ago. Maybe they've fixed some of their dependency and compiling problems?

If that heroine is Sarah Michelle-Gellar as Buffy, count me in as an addicted user.
However, heroin involves sticking a needle into my arm. Not going to freaking happen.

Reminds me of one of my favorite sigs ever:
Tell me why this golf course mentioned in the article shouldn't be able to dump a big fugly pile of boulders on their beach.
Because the beach is public property. You can't go into a city park and dump a big fugly pile of boulders there, either.
prior consent from Microsoft might be assumed, when Microsoft is paying the company to run the benchmarks in the first place.
