There are nice things that can be done such as auth tables on the firewall to make sure the clients run something like sshauth before they can access the intarweb [openbsd firewall that is, i don't know any alternatives].
Evolution does not always connect. I gave it a ago a while back, it would be great if Evolution did but sometimes it just doesnt do the job.
Moving to IMAP would be better, but we have so much stuff ingrained with MS Api's that talk to exchange.
Superb, groupware is even in the apt database.
Just don't use their software. I don't think MS is ready for the desktop anymore. I only use it in some places because of Outlook, but given time I'll be dealing with that.
Seriosuly, there is little reason to use it these days.
anyone who uses SDL/OpenGL/OpenAL/Java must use open source components.
Same goes for.net, that is, after all, open.
I know there are stupid licencing laws with.net and jaav btw, so dont troll off about that.
debian is not in a decline, they just need to slow the package release cycle, the greater number of times packages are released during a month increases the amount of checking required.
The whole point of stable/testing/unstable is so that the packages filter to stable slowly.
there is use to cc slds, for instance, in the uk, we have variants onthe.coms as.co.uk, which offer a uk perspective on the global.com, for instance. google.co.uk and google.com are slightly different, the searches can be limited to the uk. there is no reason why there can't be a uk.google.com.
The encrypted filesystem seems to be unmaintained and limited to ext2. I think xfs might have some abilities, but generally i think a root encrypted system is a bad idea, just mounting your important stuff manually in/home or/usr is good enough. sensitive material should not be automounted, so its a half descent solution to have the disk mounted in user space.
I think the USB keys are rising in popularity on the linux scene.
Then that is the error of the mod. Despite the efforts of the developers Konquerer is a sub quality bowser, but the post was refering to the KDE entity anyway. I don't see that debian will package konquerer that soon, and when they do no doubt there will be flaws pointed out.
KDE is aweful to use though. I hate it so much. Gnome is far better, but I doubt this version of KDE will be in debian's stable for some time yet, and by that time Debian will have pointed out many bugs.
Whats the big deal? just wait for the debian guys to approve something, its more worthy a test than acid.
This is a shame. Phrack was a large mag back then, and I think it should regroup and change their image a little and cover today's technology a little more, although possibly too big now for a single mag to cover. Least it's free. Does anyone remember Spellcasters ASM tutors?
Even if Microsoft does release the most secure web server ever, they will still have a huge problem to address: how to convince customers to move off of IIS 5, which has been exploited many times.
No I think their biggest problem is how to enable the large hosting companies to manage sites. I have put together script to add sites and stuff to boxes whcih can be called from database triggers. I do not see how this is even thinkabout with IIS 4/5/6/7.
Until some operating system problems are addressed the IIS platform will not be scalable or useable by large companies who wish not to spend hours clicking and icon scraping.
Use linux, no need for pirated software, so wheres the problem?
The GNU collection is designed to provide a large number of free small programs, which I use on the desktop and on numerous servers in the work place.
Its quite appareny when I use a Windows PC as I have thousands of stupid shareware programs complaining about this that and the other, when I load up an open source desktop life is much quieter.
And yes, this is propaganda, but you should try it out, and piracy is bad.
So, if you have to phone them 20 times per year because your firm is too small to afford corp, who pays for the phone call to MS from Germany or England or Brazil?
The consume shall eventually as either the software price rises because of toll free numbers or you pay the long distance call and you get charged by your telco.
If toll free i bet a bunch of people will set their PCI Winmodem up to repeatidly dial..
Perhaps MS press are confusing UI with OS. The OS is the kernel etc, the UI should make optional use of the graphics cards.
Why windows requires a graphics card is beyond me, to an extend OpenBSD can be installed and configured over a serial port, without the requirement of any graphics card beyond what the BIOS will allow the system to boot with.
Longhorn is likely to become "long list of requirements".
A UI that//requires// highend graphics is likely to be a bad UI.
Consider a vital system that looses it's graphics hardware through natural hardware failure and then refuses to load the OS because of a graphics card requirement, sheesh, I won't be running anything important in those conditions.

It's about time Sid gave me something interesting. So whats unstable now?

quit your whining.

i like the cc's, and im sure djb likes cr.yp.to.

That is the primary reason I hate IIS, why can't it be text configuration so that we can all script site administration?
The metabase is just a pain to work with and requires, in most cases the scripting host which is slower than java.

Segfault.
Have they by any chance done a tabular list of the exploits for each? This would be quite useful for comparison also.
Please note, I made no mention of ease of use, that is a different thread all together.
Academic software or not, if he is using a software licence that requires payment, and the user has not paid for the licence then that is piracy.

I still wont use it.

I knew that using the Internet or BBS systems reduce socialising time back in 1989!
