  1. Re:MS Admins are experts on Linux security? on When Does Usability Become a Liability? · · Score: 1

    we're not all stupid. Many of us run both, as well as other os's like IRIX and Solaris. I'm more careful than our MS admins, so I get to take over their positions and direct them. I also try to school them as we work. Sometimes it works.

  2. Re:Yes on When Does Usability Become a Liability? · · Score: 1

    Outlook by itself is fairly secure (i believe) from viruses due to the level one and level 2 blocking of attachments. It is when you start allowing .pif, .url and other file attachments, don't have virus scanning turned on that you get infected. I block everything but .zip and scan anything I open with an up to date scanner. No problems.

  3. Re:Still waters on Novell's Chris Stone at the MySQL Users Conference · · Score: 4, Informative

    That would be a replacement for NDS, not AD. NDS is the replacement for AD. Novell did it first. I don't particularly like it, but it works fairly well.

    but can I get it in the same colors as the iPod mini?

  5. Re:Is it dead yet? Guess not. on FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE Review · · Score: 1

    I've got two 4.1 webservers at work that have over 365 days of uptime. They average about 10K hits a day.

  6. Re:As long as it isn't smelly and noisy... on Birth of a Motorized Surfboard · · Score: 1

    crap, you can't get a place in the line up here (Santa Cruz, CA) due to every valley kid having a modified honda that will bring him and his short board buddies over the hill and into the waves. Not only that, but no one knows the etiquette anymore. Everyone wants to fight you every wave. Let the powered boys have them. Also, since i'm right handed and don't surf goofy, the controller is in my lame hand.

  7. Re:It said FREE SOFTWARE, not open source on Brazilian Government Continues Push For Free Software · · Score: 1

    It needs to be free. The government cannot afford to pay for software. Read about their fiscal problems lately?

  8. Re:Cost Benefit Analysis on SoBig: Worst is Yet to Come · · Score: 1

    i'm also effing stupid, i'm reading about sobig and thinking about blaster/nachi

  9. Re:Cost Benefit Analysis on SoBig: Worst is Yet to Come · · Score: 1

    We IT dudes are all salaried and aren't making overtime. I was out for two weeks, came back to this and spent 15 minutes getting into the RSM on the cat 5500, wrote a quick acl, then spent 14 hours tracking down errant win2k boxes that weren't patched and weren't supposed to be on the network in the first place. Thank you to our division software engineers.

  10. Re:Company-to-Company relationships are important on What is Open Source? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    IBM supports Linux, because there is money in it. They would support commodore 64s if there was money in it. To believe that they feel Linux or Open Source software was somehow better would be naive.
