My music & pictures app crashes all the time on my Win2k server. I wonder if this will be any more stable.
They should have just added Samba support so you could directly connect to shares.
bitch & moan, bitch and moan.

And our TCO sucks! By giving our users Admin access, we don't have to support them ALL THE TIME, they support themselves. Heck, would you want to? So our TCO numbers are not as bad as they might be at least.
Your missing the point of amateur radio. Its not about reliable point to point comms day in, day out. (though this can come in handy during disasters) Its a hobby, a public service. Its about exploring new technologies, testing. Its about improving the art. Look at open source as an example - except ham radio has been doing it for much, much longer.
BPL creates terrible interference, and it will effect non-amateur bands.

This is very cool. Along the lines of Gibson's changing suit.
Now, if I had one the size of a closet mirror, I could make my wife feel better about her self!
I support a lot of public schools, and I have a master building key for most, which are kept IN the school. I use 72pinn dimm's as keychains (use the existing hole), so when I loose it (not good to do with a master key), everyone knows who's it is.
Charging peopel a license fee to continue using Linux (SCO Source License - remember that ISP is TX) IS a direct violation - and not Darl spewing his mouth out.
Not to mention its not just Darl, its in court documents, etc.
Read the IBM filing.
>The thing is, they do distribute their code under >the GPL.
I believe they don't distribute any Sys V code under the GPL, because this is NO Sys V code in Linux.
Anyone notice how IBM keeps saying in filing & court that to date, SCO hasn't provided a single line of infringeing code.
Or as SCO says, referenced in this latest filing by IBM:
"IBM keeps insisting on something that is not part of SCO's claims, so it should come as no surprise that files or lines of code in System V have not been identified"
Given the recent bad press, I think the PR guys (those not digging up old Vietnam skipboat veterans of Linus) at Microsoft won the battle of "missing another deadline".
And if memory serves, this usually means worse PR disaster when mom and pop's computers start blowing up because the engineers lost the day.
Serves them right if it happens. Not to mention, two updates released outside of the regular Wednesday schedule... I gotta change spagetti night now!
No crap! If you using Win2K most of the time, and XP some of the time, like myself, you find that XP is buggy, interfacially sluggish, prone to hang, multi-tasks like win 3.1! Hell my PII 300meg Gnome FC1 install out performs the XP machines I have work on at work.
I agree, time for SP5. Let the XP nuts bloat even more w/SP2.
If only SCO had the business sense that Penguin, Tarbox Inc., sleazy lawyers, etc. have, this whole "truckload of code" nonsense would have been over with a long time ago.
Obviously Penguin, Tarbox Inc. (see domain registration) ARE interested in making money, having a sucessful business even if people don't seem to like the book.
Whats most interesting about this story (and I'll reserve ANY judgement until I see it in court - I'm still waiting for SCO's copyright claims to be filed since Dec 2003, and that was promised in open court!) is whats NOT being talked about.
What happened to Linux? In this instance certainly, and more generally all during SCOForum, SCO has been talking about Unix, and ignoring Linux.
I think this is a great show of their final admittance that their Linux claims/cases are bogus.
In regards to the "smoking bullet", they just didn't "find" this stuff today, they have had it for a while I'd assume, and I haven't seen any amendments in court. Not to mention, discovery is almost finished, and I would bet there are contradictory documents (affidavitts, deps) SCO has certified that say nothing of this. Didn't IBM ask SCO already (and they replied) regarding violations of SCO code in Linux, Dynix, and AIX?
The trouble we have in the district I work in, is (especially now - that Apple is pushing OS X and the s/w vendors are not up to speed) there just isn't software available for the Mac, thats wanted.
Many a times is a new course created, and they go through entensive expense to make Mac's run PC software using virtual PC's, only to have failure in the end.
Gee, I'm not the only person stuck in this loophole! You would have to assume that any system changeover is gonna have lots of problems.
JUST HATE when it happens to me, personally!
Perhaps my measly 3000+ units are enough...
Dear Comcast,
Thank you for your letter. The file that you mention as infringing were collected off your NNTP server at netnews.comcast.net, and not via a p2p program.
Your broadband sales information touts "watch moving on the internet" and other such features, I believed that your news server, and its content were part of these features.
My appoligies, and I will miss the Comcast NNTP server when your shut it down.
>I thought SWAT made samba configuration pretty
>easy, but this Apple stuff is great.
You haven't use all the advanced features then. My experience with OSX Server has been that the GUI wipes custom mods to the smb config file, say like an alias list etc....

Win2K3 is a mess. Since our NT PDC & Members our transfer rates have dropped, all sorts of bad lock situations with single file Excel docs (Office 97).

Yeah, but about a month ago they stopped offering the free tape because people were abusing it!

Thanks, I was going say that, but at least someone else has corrected the posters erroneous statements.
Correct the FUD!

Well, thats just fine, outsourced or not. That wouldn't be our problem though, would it.
