Where you can get inexpensive mail hosting that is also suitable for personal interest mailing lists you wish to host?
This hard reality sucks. The internet used to be a collaborative thing. Now it is consumption only.:(
I'm now paying quite a bit per month for a virtual freebsd jail to handle my needs. This is after 8 years online with residential broadband being an acceptable solution.
I wish I had enough people interested that I could just get a T1 drop as a business venture and write it off.
I use the same provider for both my DNS service and my domain registration. The rest I handle myself through a cobbled together web of broadband connections and a virtual server at 65535.net.
Have you tried OpieReader? I reformat ebooks with OO.o, save them as HTML, run them through Plucker, and read that with OpieReader. It is MUCH quicker on the Z 5500 than plucker is on my m515 at work.
It's really a shame they now require MS operating systems. I thought they actually required a PC Unix now, and you just had to turn some assignments in in Office Formats?
When I went through VT's program, DECStations running Ultrix were required. I got by using FreeBSD and accounts on the lab machines to do my final compiles targetting Ultrix.
All of these that I've seen are hard-wired to the FM antenna coax within the car. They are not transmitting, but pushing a signal on a closed system to the FM receiver in the dash.
There may however be cases where the FM antenna on the car leaks some radiation, but I doubt it's much. These things don't have the power to push much signal.
I've not seen anyone take this tack with respect to OSS before. Care to back up your assertions? I'd like to hear at least anecdotal evidence from CIOs who are realizing this situation and capitalizing on the wealth of free software out there by saving local headcount and getting things done remotely.
Wow. Thanks for the effort in documenting that. Definitely a post I will bookmark. I'd post "MOD PARENT UP" but I think the moderators have moved on to more recent stories in typical/. fashion.
I definitely took them seriously. Not seriously enough to go out and buy software for it, but I did update and run spycop once my machines were no longer using that dns suffix to lookup addresses. It found some cookies, but that's it.
Just for future reference, what could I have done differently in identifying the cause? I did use a non-Windows system to verify the data returned from the DHCP server.
In retrospect, that data may not have been from their DHCP server, but from my broadband firewall/router. Is there a not-low possibility that was affected somehow and was the source of the poisoning?
1) right... connections to xxx. went to where they were supposed to.
2) no WINS servers on my network
3) NetBIOS disabled.
The question I have is why my dns suffix was as it was, and how come that came from the dhcp server.
I did an ifconfig/release; ifconfig/renew and the domain suffix still showed up. I corroborated the DNS server addresses with the tech support personnel.
Could this be spyware/adware that neither spycop or adaware is detecting?
Could my hardware firewall/router be infected somehow?
Yeah, I did think to run Spycop after this happened. It turned up nothing but a few cookies.
I explained in another post elsewhere that I did in fact use a unix-alike box to query the dhcp server and got back that connection dns suffix from the dhcp server.
I got some flack for running windows. So what. I was also told it was spyware, which I'm certain it was not.
Some people seemed to misunderstand that I was attacked because my communications were in fact monitored without my or the other party's permission. Oh well... glad I pay attention to key mismatches!
I queried the dhcp server from a unix-alike box and got the same response back from it for the connection's dns domain as I did under windows. The DHCP server was handing it out for sure.
What's interesting about the decisions that were made to go ahead with this damn is the Chinese have such a long history. They're continously finding out more about how advanced they were in specific areas so long ago. It seems like they might just wipe away any chance of discovering some of that past.

Could this really happen? How would Microsoft deny having a monopoly if they went this route?
With the Bush administration in power they don't have to worry about denying any monopoly. No one in the justice department cares.
Were you trying to find help for something already well documented?
I have used FreeBSD for many years, and have used Linux for many years. The Linux enthusiast community to me appears much more tolerant of people asking questions before RTMF (yes, RTMF).
In FreeBSD most things are very well documented, and over the years I have noticed a tendency not to help Fs that don't RTM.

We better all watch out - our shift keys are quickly becoming a means to thwarting an access control device. Using them is flirting with arrest!

However, you still have to trust a registrar.

I wish these Linux PDAs would get usability right. I have a Zaurus, and it sure doesn't.
Nothing beats a Palm in this regard. What PIM / oft-accessed organization function can you not access in under 2 clicks/buttons on a Palm?
I love the capabilities of my Zaurus, but it's annoying it takes me 5-6x longer to use regular functions.
perl -e 'unlink("--help");'

Have you tried to solve this issue? I do not have it and I run a server most users use with transports.

So why Subversion? Why not something like Arch, which handles this?

Or is this just an opinion?

I did an ifconfig
Could this be spyware/adware that neither spycop or adaware is detecting?
Could my hardware firewall/router be infected somehow?
I googled it a bit ago and have updated it and scanned twice. Same story there, lots of cookies, no software.
The DHCP server stopped returning that domain name about an hour after I called the support line.
Yes, I ran Spycop the next morning with no results.
I'll go looking for adaware and see if it says anything different.
Yeah, I did think to run Spycop after this happened. It turned up nothing but a few cookies.

Actually, it was not spyware.
I queried the dhcp server from a unix-alike box and got the same response back from it for the connection's dns domain as I did under windows. The DHCP server was handing it out for sure.
Though, I do prefer they make application specific optimizations that mean better gameplay.
It's just another piece of information to keep in mind when selecting a new card.

I've seen this post how many times now?
Finally, the AC got it in as an FP!
Where can I get this as an E-book I can read on my Zaurus?
