  1. Re:Application? on FreeNX Terminal Server Setup on SUSE 10 · · Score: 5, Informative

    Excuse my ignorance, but how many connections are "high latency, low bandwidth"

    Dialup is high latency, low bandwidth.

    Dialup? Slow latency.

    I think your confused here. Latency is the time it takes for a packet to reach its destination. (And get back if talking round trip time) Bandwidth is how much data can be transmitted per second. See here

    You can grab it off my server here

    Sure, but install VMWare inside of VirtualPC inside of VMWare...

  7. Is the US not a country anymore? on Operation Fastlink Cracks Down on Warez · · Score: 1

    Does it concern anyone else that the phrase "10 countries and the United States" was used instead of "11 countries including the United States"?

  8. Re:A somewhat real mirror on IF Quake Takes Fragging To Whole New Level · · Score: 1

    It seems down now, here is a full mirror.

  9. Re:IPTables and QoS on Policy-Based Routing Using Software Firewalls? · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't it be easier to do this with iptables:

    iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j SNAT --to $FIRST_T1
    iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p udp --dport 27015 -j SNAT --to $SECOND_T1

    IIRC this will route all web traffic to the first T1 and all halflife traffic to the second T1, or did I miss something?

  10. Re:I don't like Freenet on Freenet Project More Stable, In Need · · Score: 1

    The problem is that in a system like freenet there is no way of only censoring the stuff you seem to disagree with, if there was then it wouldn't be FREEnet. Of course your always free not to run freenet, but based on this conversation I'm guessing your not anyway.

    Ok, thats valid, but those aren't covered under the 1st amendment anyway.

    ...but I don't believe in freedom of speech as an absolute right.

    Why? When is it ok to silence speech? When it goes against something you belive in? I personally don't agree with your post
    but that doesn't mean that I think you shouldn't be allowed to speak your opinion.

  13. Re:Makes me wonder about the Hitachi ones out now? on More on IBM 75GXP Drive Fiasco · · Score: 1

    Same here, I have 4 180GXPs, they've never given me a single problem. The problem definatly seems to be related to drive temp, I'm monitoring them with mrtg and they were getting pretty hot before I got some fans on them.

  14. Re:I like reason #4 on SCOoby Snacks · · Score: 2, Interesting

    So the DOS attack that took out their website last week was normal business operation?

    Not at all, as I pointed out in this post they claim that SCO UNIX is immune to DOS attacks and has better security features than the competition, yet they run their website on linux. That tells me that they consider linux to be a better option than their own product.

  15. Benefits of SCO UNIX? on Novell Quotes AT&T on Derivative Works · · Score: 5, Funny

    As seen here one of the benefits is "These security features guard against business interruption, denial of service attacks and protect against identity or corporate information theft." (emphasis mine) It makes one wonder why they don't run their web server on it instead of linux?

  18. Re:Which begs the question... on IPv6 Success Stories? · · Score: 1

    Of course your hub/switch work with IPv6, the only protocol your hub/switch care about is ethernet, IP rides on top of ethernet.

  19. Mostly hype on What Has Number Portability Done For You? · · Score: 1

    I thought changing your number was a BENIFIT. This way it lets me get rid of everyone who happens to have my number and shouldn't, like my ex.

  20. Linux is still listed on the website on Microsoft Virtual PC 2004 Removes Linux Support · · Score: 1

    If you look here linux and os/2 are still listed as being supported.

  21. Re:Are you really surprised? on What to Do When Your ISP Steals Your Domain? · · Score: 1

    My point was that with all the click through agreements you never know how the company might try to screw you. Sure, the EULA might not hold up in court but how many end users can afford to got to court against a mutimillion dollar company? With Linux anyone with sufficent knowledge can host their own domain and have complete ownership and control.

  22. Are you really surprised? on What to Do When Your ISP Steals Your Domain? · · Score: 1

    This is why I host everything for my domain myself. Its hard to trust any company in this day and age.

    No, that company sucked. I didn't get paid for my unused vacation time either, the last job that laided me off at least gave me that much respect.

    Good point, but since I already had another job lined up I didn't have to worry about such things!
