  1. Re:Unfairly moderated; please give this a second l on What Web-Based Email Service Do You Use? · · Score: 1

    How does mindterm fit the answer of a "web-based email service"? To run mindterm to get mail, this would involve finding a free email service that provides shell accounts, as well as web space to put the java applet. The java security in your browser (in theory at least) should not allow you to make arbitrary net connections, except to the server the java applet was downloaded from.

  2. Re:Try Debian on Upgrading A Headless Server? · · Score: 1

    doesn't have to be debian. With RPM systems, you can rpm -Fvh ftp://mirrorsite/redhat6.x and i believe there's an install dependencies thing. (But redhat changes the package names sometimes and splits packages so that doesn't always work exactly right)

  17. NSI didn't screw up, COREnic did on UPDATED: OpenSSH Domain Name Controversy · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't say that NSI is perfect, but if CORENIC says this about openssh.org

    Domain Name: OPENSSH.ORG
    Registrar: NETWORK SOLUTIONS, INC.

    Name Server: NS2.KYARITSU.COM
    Name Server: NS1.KYARITSU.COM

    this means that it retrieved the record information FROM NETWORKSOLUTIONS!!!! So f NSI screwed up, HOW THE HELL WOULD CORENIC have gotten the "RIGHT" date?

    What are you basing this on?

    How can you assume that NSI is at fault here?
    CORENIC is the registrar of openssh.com
    NSI registered openssh.org

    NSI queries
    (is master for ) openssh.org

    (is master for) openssh.com
    Record created: 1999-10-25 08:44:41 MET by CORE-80

    Seems ta me that it would be corenic that has it wrong and somehow managed to translate it. I would assume that the master server would have the right information, NOT the server that took the information from the master.

  19. Wait a minute.... on UPDATED: OpenSSH Domain Name Controversy · · Score: 2

    How do you know which server is right?

    If I query whois.networksolutions.com (which is the master for openssh.org according to corenic), the date it was created was november 9.

    If I query whois.corenic.net (which is the master for openssh.com) for openssh.org, it's oct 15.

    Shouldn't I assume that corenic "lost something in the translation" from networksolutions rather than assuming that the master is bad? I mean, networksolutions can get the correct date from corenic for openssh.com
