    did you just suggest that a shorter warranty would be better? and got modded up. good grief.

    ALLOFMP3 has the best model going. YOU decide the quality of the rip (on demand). When a more "legit" company starts offering this same model, this industry will explode.

  5. Re:My experience on Opinions on Alternatives to Cisco Routers? · · Score: 1

    I agree with your post and the posts above regarding the superiority of ASICS vs a PC, however this is kind of like the linux on x86 vs mainframe situation. Commodity hardware WILL steal significant marketshare from "big iron" like cisco. Its just a matter of time.

    I thought he was asking if it could directly take the signal from the TV card. I cannot find anything saying that videolan does this. Maybe I am confused.

  11. Re:and ? on Novell-SUSE Sponsors Openswan · · Score: 1

    gotcha. in the cases where I wanted two networks connected by a vpn, I have used hardware routers that did all the work for me, such as a netopia r910 or sonicwall. can a linux box doing the same job handle more/faster connections ? of course I guess it depends on the processor. might be a cheaper/more scalable route than an r910 or something similar.

  15. Re:and ? on Novell-SUSE Sponsors Openswan · · Score: 1

    sounds like you had some extra requirements that I didnt have to mess with. I setup openvpn on my laptop so that everytime it turns on, if it has an internet connection, openvpn connects to my home computer, creates the vpn, and I can browse or remote control my home computer. It doesnt matter where I am, my laptop "phones home" and creates the connection. Took me less than an hour (including forwarding one port in my firewall), by just following the instructions. I think I probably setup the most simple type it supports (shared key using SSL). I have been wanting this for several years, but hated the IPsec/PPTP/L2TP/SWAN complexities. I "knew" someone would make a simple vpn app eventually, and I was so pleased I donated. Cant code for shit so I put my money where my data is. Im going to research the SWAN IPsec implementation more closely just so I know what I am missing ;)

  16. Re:and ? on Novell-SUSE Sponsors Openswan · · Score: 4, Interesting

    However, with the *SWANs, you can also get x509, nat-t, dpd, foo, and bar.

    x509 is certs right ? OpenVPN can do em. nat-t ? OpenVPN doesnt need that kludge. It uses one port that can be redirected through multiple Nats if need be. Dead peer detection ? OpenVPN is self healing. Link goes down, comes back up and OpenVPN reconnects.

    Now before I get too carried away, I dont know shit about vpn, but SWAN looks like a bitch (based on my IPCop machine) and OpenVPN is very easy.

    I have never tried SWAN because OpenVPN is so easy.

    my grandmother had type 2 diabetes and was nowhere near being "fat". Your "fuck em all" attitude works fine in nature, but to some extent humans have removed themselves from that reality. you can bitch and moan but reality trudges onward, research will be done, drugs will be developed, and people who would have otherwise died will live on to reproduce. I agree with your underlying idea/premise, but your apporach and demeanor leave something to be desired.
