  1. Why LDAP? on LDAP Authentication in Linux · · Score: 1

    For small/medium sized shops, are there any benefits of using LDAP over MySQL for authentication tasks?

    I'm curious because we're already running mysqld for web apps and postfix maps. Is it worth running another service and all of the administrative overhead? Obviously the answer may be "it depends." What should I consider in making the decision?

  2. Cautiously optimistic on Indian State Encourages Microsoft Removal · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Revenge is sweet but we should be careful as to not let any one linux company become the next microsoft.

    Grandparent post is funny because he asks not to "incourage" ignorance.

    We sometimes forget how good we have it.

    Downloads are not just accepted, they are encouraged.

    And delete your youtube video.

    No offense, but you have a face for blogging. Your video will gives linux supporters a bad reputation as amateur basement dwellers.

  6. Too bad it wasn't gnu-darwin shut down on OpenDarwin Project Shutting Down · · Score: 0

    Advogato readers will know the true shame is that opendarwin is closing and not gnu-darwin.

  7. Trend of Bush admin secrecy must be stopped! on FBI Foils Attack by Monitoring Chat Rooms · · Score: 0, Troll

    Well, that wasn't very fair to the lebanese. The New York Times should find out what screen names the FBI uses in these chat rooms and publish it as a page 1 story. It is our right as citizens to know!

  8. Radio execs don't get it on High Definition Radio and New Content Alternatives · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Content is the key. That is why I continue to pay $12/mo for my Sirius satelite unit. Programming on the local stations is SO BAD that even cheapskates like me pay to escape from it!

    And how much miney goes into SSN that will never be collected by these illegal aliens?

    How does the money go into SSN? With a SSN number.

    How does an illegal get a SSN? Identity theft.

    Just wonderful.

    Let's not forget that not one, NOT ONE terrorist has EVER been caught crossing the US-Mexican border.

    Never been caught is very different than has never crossed. We want to make sure that the latter doesn't happen.

  17. About thinkpads on Laptops Required for Freshmen · · Score: 0

    Thinkpads may be more expensive than your run of the mill Best Buy laptop but you're paying for quality. The school has probably tested several manufacturers and found that thinkpads will cause the least support headache. Sadly, trends in laptops seem to favor cheap over durable.

  18. Don't forget Step 8 on New York Times sues DoD over Domestic Spying · · Score: 0


    8. Old York Times reports that government has trouble tracking terrorists.

    It's the best of all worlds for them. Win or lose, they get to report how they make the news and they get to write follow-up stories on their efforts.

  19. PowerPC or Intel doesn't matter on Will MacIntel Kill Apple Open Source Efforts? · · Score: 0

    Apple only looks out for itself. Anyone who looks at the company's history of openness can see this. This will be a repeat of the open PPC hardware debacle of several years ago. I can guarentee it.

  20. Re:All you could prove with that question on Poll Finds Mixed Support for Domestic Wiretaps · · Score: 0
    It's not that complicated: the only power to tap American phones is under FISA

    You might think it's that simple but it's not.

    Findlaw has legal justification here. You can cry how you've been theoretically violated but it doesn't change the fact that this specific act of tapping foreign calls will remain legal until ruled otherwise by the courts. (appeals and all)

  21. All you could prove with that question on Poll Finds Mixed Support for Domestic Wiretaps · · Score: 0

    Is that asking a bogus question will get you a bogus result. Legal scholars disagree over the legality of the foreign originated call tapping. So until the courts rule, you calling it an illegal spying program is just as much of a LIE as the lies you accuse Bush of.

    "Joe Smith?" says Cheney, rubbing his hands together as if over a fine meal. "Man, he's gotta qualify as a certain American. Let's listen to his conversation with his wife."

    Are you stupid or are you intentionally missing the point.

    Joe Smith in your case only has to worry if his real name is "Joe AlSmith" and his wife is "Dr. Germ AlSmith" living abroad. Domestic calls are not tapped under this program.
