    There is also another route.

    Police blocking page gives link to law: http://www.finlex.fi/fi/laki/ajantasa/2006/20061068

    In here there is link to "Valtiopäiväasiat": http://www.eduskunta.fi/valtiopaivaasiat/he+99/2006

    Police is announced that it will going to list URLs instead of domain names in it's filtering list which it gives ot ISPs.

    Effectively this means that ISPs must use proxy for filtering.

  3. [OT] /etc/resolv.conf on Finnish Censorship Expanding · · Score: 1

    If you're using dhcp, the correct way is to edit your dhclient script and prepend your own domain name server. Resolv.conf gets overwritten from time to time.

    It is resolvconf package which overwrites /etc/resolv.conf (and when network configuration changes).
    I put nameserver 127.0.0.1 to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file.
    Another place is put dns-nameservers 127.0.0.1 to /etc/network/interfaces file.

  5. Universities on Finnish Censorship Expanding · · Score: 1

    And as an anecdote, i'm on university network and nothing seems blocked (yet, anyway).

    FUNET (Finnish University and Research Network) does not do censoring.

    And DNS based censoring is not even possible on that case, because every university uses own DNS. ( So censoring may require proxy based approach, which is more expensive. )

    Universities can not do that censoring. They do not get that censorship/filter list from police (law gives special permission police to deliver that censorship/filter list to ISPs only.)

    And naturally, the results for legislation vote are not available online...
    It is available
    • Go http://web.eduskunta.fi/
    • Select Valtiopäiväasiat ja -asiakirjat
    • Enter "HE 99/2006" to "Asian tunnus:" -field
    • Press "Hae"
    • Look "Ensimmäinen käsittely" (PTK 117/2006 vp)
    • and look "Toinen käsittely" (PTK 117/2006 vp)
    In either case there was no vote because nobody opposed.

    I used to own a Japanese-made car. In order to lock the doors, you had to lock it, then hold the handle up while you closed the door. If you didn't hold the handle up, the door would become unlocked.

    In order to lock the doors, you can close it and then lock it with keys.

    That is what I do do more usual than lock door and then close it with keeping handle up.

    From a good source I know Linux does indeed contain lines that are exactly the same as in UnixWare Code.

    e.g.:
    for (int i = 0; i < MAX_INT; i++)

  24. Gandi (Re:Some registrars will protect you) on New Rules Make Domain Hijacking Easier · · Score: 1
    Perchance, does anyone know how to lock a domain name at gandi.net? That's where a lot of my domains are, and I've been trying to find the feature there for the last ten minutes or so without success.

    FAQ chapter 3.4. Outgoing transfer (leaving Gandi) indicates that there is no any lock. I think.

    The gaining registrar will probably start the process by asking you for some authorizations. On a second step, the transfer request will be forwarded to the registry which will, in turn, notify Gandi of this outgoing transfer. Then Gandi will send an email to the contacts of the domain, just for their information. This email will look like:
    IMPORTANT: Transfer of ... to another registrar

    For .COM .NET .BE domain names:
    If you wish to leave Gandi, you do not need to answer this email. Our lack of answer will be interpreted by the registry as an agreement, after a 5 days delay. There is no need to contact us during this 5 days delay.

    For .ORG .INFO .BIZ .NAME domain names:
    In this email you will find a link. You can use it to refuse or to accept the transfer. Your action will be applied immediately. If you do not use the link, the transfer will be interpreted by the registry as an agreement, only after a 5 days delay.
  25. Re:its a hardware problem on Fedora Core Doesn't Like to Dual Boot? · · Score: 5, Informative
    Actually if you check Mandrake's bugzilla, they have the same problem. You can check it out at here. Mandrake listed the bug as resolved/fixed although it doesn't look like it actually was fixed.
    On there is quite good description what is happening:
    Part of the reason I could not understand the bug, is that I could not
    believe windows XP was still using the error prone int13 function 2
    (CHS based) instead of the (available everywhere for some time) int13
    function 0x42. Under linux, grub and lilo only use function 2 when
    function 0x42 fails (they don't even ask the BIOS if it manages 0x42
    since some BIOS don't report correctly having this functionality, cf
    FORCE_LBA in grub)

    The other reason is that I thought BIOS faking heads number (the
    so-called LBA mode) was a choice independant of the content of the
    drive. This is wrong, the BIOS tries to adapt its mode based on the
    partition table [1]

    So here is what happened:
    - kernel 2.6 doesn't try to give the logical geometry, and gives the
    physical geometry instead [2]
    - diskdrake uses the physical geometry to generate the CHS information
    (which is a broken duplicate of the linear sector number)
    - the BIOS sees the partition table uses a different CHS geometry, and
    adapt to it
    - ... and Windows computes the CHS to read its stage1.5 based on the
    previous geometry that it keeps in its boot sector. Alas the CHS
    doesn't get the same sector and Windows's boot dies (with very bad
    error detection) [3]
    That is comment 21. That same comment indicates that problem is fixed:
    Code fix description: inspired by the way new fdisk and parted detects
    the logical geometry based on the partition table [4]. parted code
    is especially quite robust.
    The fix is now included in cooker (DrakX #1.912), so:

    I still would like to access the BIOS geometry, esp. for empty
    partition tables. But kernel 2.6 doesn't give us this
    (/sys/firmware/edd/int13_dev80/default_heads is plain wrong on a box
    here)

    Known workaround: forcing LBA mode in the BIOS
