* Configure your firewalls/border routers to deny incoming packets with bogus source addresses (eg. that appear to come from machines within your network, reserved IPs like 10.X.X.X or 192.168.X.X, localhost IPs 127.X.X.X, etc. Any good firewall guide should provide more detailed guidance on these essential rules.
* Stateful firewall rules can also help against these sorts of attacks -- make sure your firewall offers this feature and that it is enabled.
* Try to run operating systems with less predictable IP ID sequences, such as recent versions of OpenBSD, Solaris, or Linux. While these operating systems are immune from becoming zombies with the current version of Nmap, they may not stop all IPID-related attacks. Further investigation is needed.
* Implement egress filtering to prevent spoofed packets from leaving your network. This prevents your employees/students from launching some of these attacks.
The problem is that people will scan other hosts using your IP as a "Zombie" so that it looks like the scan is coming from you this can get you into trouble REAL fast
if your an outdoor person I recommend taking a break from our modern day world to volunteer on a tall ship I volunteered on the lady washington for a month and loved it.
I tend not to read and type at the same time. I think its better to read away from the computer.
of course this doesnt help when copying examples out of the book, in that case, I usually just put the book down next to my keyboard
new to Western Washington University this year is an interesting and effective (so far) method for capping bandwidth
from the myBandwidth page:
Your bandwidth usage will be limited if the following conditions are present: the connection (ie. "pipe") from WWU residence halls to the Internet is almost completely full, AND you are using an overwhelming majority of the "pipe." Excessive users will more likely be rate limited than moderate to occassional users. The type or size of your use will affect whether your use is rate limited. For example, large downloads or uploads (such as excessive file sharing) will be rate limited more than small (moderate web surfing, email without large attachments).
Water also shrinks a little as it is heated, but only from freezing point to just above freezing point.
Although several materials exhibit this unusual property, zirconium tungstate is the only one known so far to show the behavior at a constant rate and at room temperature. Unlike the other compounds, it also shrinks equally in all directions.

how speedily this site gets slashdotted

The Practice of Programming
by Brian W. Kernighan and Rob Pike
We used K12LTSP at our high school, I highly recommend it
of course this doesnt help when copying examples out of the book, in that case, I usually just put the book down next to my keyboard
just my two cents, hope it helps
when it comes to microsoft, the word compatible doesnt really come to mind

at a first glance, this is what the tired UNIX geek sees
ya, ok its not a metal but ice shrinks when its heated
amen

have you heard about the linux show?
also, I dont want to be redundant, but NPR always has something interseting
ext2 or ext3 for linux rw
HFS+ or UFS for OSX rw and linux ro
but if it was given to humans?
but what im wondering, is if there are any drawbacks.
namely: possible cancer
any other ideas?
It will be interseting to see if moto use overtakes php / perl-CGI
if only they could do that to plants like morning glory and scotch broom
Im fine with my RIVA128 (8 ram)
I dont see why anyone would need a video card like that unless they are playing intense games
and cracking passwords
seeing that the links are goatse...
I dont think you want to know
