You're probably digging yourself a grave, here, but, you can make the Access/MySQL work. I've done it on more apps than I can count, but, here are some things you should take into account:
Lack of row locking;
timestamp fields on every table;
You need a Windows admin tool, ODBC won't allow you to modify database schema;
You'll need some vb code to update the DSN's whenever schema's change;
many more...
If you have MSSQL already, use it. Not that it will work any better for most apps, but, it will buy you job security. I don't observe db admin being done too well in most shops unless the app is very important, and, even then, I see a lot of screwups. If you aren't a seasoned dba, take the one that's "most supported." It'll save you grief and get you support for the app from your boss.
Clearly, the resource we've come to depend on so heavily has fallen into the control of folks who don't appear competent in administering it; but, what a huge resource. I was pissed a week ago, when I hit deja looking for the answer to a question I assumed would appear in mere moments. What a shock! And, of all organizations; Google!
But, really, folks, if you look at the realities of what the techs at Deja had to deploy to make that work, it shouldn't be suprizing it came to an end. What amazed me most was the religious availability those guys made sure their fleet of Linux boxes maintained.
I can't imagine how this project could be replicated in lesser projected time frames, even as an Open Source endeavor. Perhaps a Gnutella model? Who knows?!
I'm a cat person. I hate to admit it, but, permanent chicks suck, dogs are forbidden from apartments, roommates are a pain-in-the ass, and parents are great, but, you shouldn't live with them. I thought when Sox died at 15 after being hit by a car and leading a very disturbing garbage-picking life, I was done with them for good. I wasn't a cat person. Couldn't have been more wrong. I hate cats, but, had I not taken Sox in, our cars would have had a lot more pigeon shit on them.
I used to make the office-chicks change their cat-screensavers when I was an administrator at a gov't agency, 'cause they bugged me. Of course, two of these had 13 and 8 (respectively) of these vile little creatures at home, since men found them (the office cows, not cats) so offensive. Again, it wasn't the fault of the cats. It's just that they (the chicks) couldn't stay in a male's presence with his approval for longer than 5 seconds and needed some companionship.
When my latest cat was thrust into a bar and hazed and abused by its patrons a close friend of mine's wife took pity on the poor beast and, since they already had 3, felt I should be compelled to take her in. What the hell, I figured. It was a cute little monster, and, I'd had 3, or 4 beers, and felt the 20 - 25 bucks a month on cat food and litter couldn't be too much of a burden. Then, the little bastard educated me as to how much fun she could have trying to guess the passwords on my computers' xscreensavers, and, there was that one day she unplugged the main extension chord to the UPS and I had to rush home after the pager went off only to find her batting around a dead mouse next to an orange extension chord plug that looked strangely as if it had once been plugged into an outlet lying fairly close to it. Strange how cats can teach you new tricks. I learned she wasn't strong enough to pry an AS-400 away from the wall from whence it wedged an extension chord plug securely into an outlet.
Yup, hate, the little monster, but, Tux (my bastard cat, not the penguin), probably spends her days surfing kitty-porn and morally damaging sites like this one, all-the-while filling carnivore logs with my RemoteAddr when she's not rebooting my Linux and BSD boxes, as I slave away on my day job earning the loot to finance that cat food she needs laying around to supplement her diet of mice.
Just hope she's got a plan B, when the Feds knock on the door to take me in for surfing kitty-porn.
I've discussed this with a few admin partners and the BIND problem is something that always takes significant amounts of time to stay on top of. Seems the timing is right for either a code fork, or more effort on alternatives. I don't like the licensing sound of dbj-dns, so I don't think that's the answer. It's not really clear what the license is.
Something that has an application front-end with a database back-end would provide better security and other features. The dbase could be replicated to off-line servers for redundancy in case of faults. This could also be used for load-balancing and backups as well. The front-end for administration could be web-based with a php or perl api for ease of expanding the application. I'd be interested in seeing active development on this project and would definitely contribute. Note that MySQL is GPL, so the potential for this type of thing happening again would be eliminated.
Starting the conversion of my 10 servers back to Windows2000 this weekend. It might be a little slow, though, since, I'll have to start with NT and have the WinAt Service schedule reboots every hour.
I'm not sure how much the software licensing costs will be, so, I'll have to convert one server, then, sell a few machines to pay for the licenses, then, convert another, and sell a few machines to pay for licenses. You guys can keep an eye on the action at ebay.
Kinda a relief, now that I think about it. Never did think I'd ever use those 5 monitors I don't use any more. Sure will be nice to see them light up, again. Boy, I hope they still work.

Yeah, tried that once with a video card, with the same result. Don't understand why people think they need to continually add components to individual PC's when additional nodes to the cluster are so easy to plug in. Of course, you might lose 16 machines for 5 seconds on occasion when you need to daisy-chain another hub. >:)
I can understand why @Home would have several levels of countermeasures in place to reduce spam and server services deployed by consumers. Perhaps it was broken and they've got this fixed, but, sending from a registered domain with dns set up, it accepted the mail in 2 seconds:
While it is troubling that the closed source OS (some flavors/pieces, anyway) may have been exposed to an 3l33t3 few and chances are their motives are nefarious, that security snowball has enough momentum to keep it from attaining it's.NET Web ubiquity.
Much more concerning is the simplicity the Linux/UNIX vendors have put into their installations. From CD-ROM to *N*X system in less than 30 minutes for anyone. The one who most disturbs me is RedHat with the ServerInstall option. Every service, none secured. Since these boxes are usually put on public IP's to perform some service(s), they usually have the most potential for causing problems to servers that have been locked down. It would be nice to see a firewall script installed and enacted in any distribution, with instructions on how to unfirewall certain things post-install. This might help cut down on the DDOS agents out there. The hundreds of compromised hosts they're talking about are most likely not Micro$oft systems. The vulnerability was on port 111.
The RPC vulnerabilities have been around forever, along with the WU-FTPD problems, but, they have been around for ages and fixes, or at least host access and firewall techniques have been around just as long. For some reason, the patches just don't get applied, and, the systems get taken over. I just hope with all this newfound popularity, the Open Source OSes don't earn the same bad security wrap Windows has earned. And, I do mean earned. Because we can do something to secure our systems, if we think security is important. It is and we should.
Don't sweat this. I went through Slack 7.1, Caldera 2.4, RedHat 7.0 (Patched), Turbo, and eventually back to Slack. I ended up rebuilding the full XFree 3.3.6 and patched the savage on an IBM T20 with the chipset and it runs beautifully at 1024 X 768 on this quick little laptop. The patches are here, along with instructions, here. I built mine without xfs (the font server). Tim's XF86_SVGA binary needs the font-server by default, but, this can be suppressed with startx -fp/usr/X11R6/lib/fonts/misc/.
I only wish they'd had this done 2 weeks ago. Would have helped my presentation today for VMWare with a dual-boot Slack/Win2k workstation much more effective. >:)
For as long as Windows allows.exes to run without user-intervention, these incidents will continue to hit the press. Windows needs a file-system that allows a umask 177. Actually, since 9x only respects the last field (other), that's pretty irrelevant, anyway.
These incidents come and go and in 3 months, another virus will take down several thousand Win PC's and we'll read about it on ZDNet, but, the desktop will still run Win-something.
Since it's not going to change any time soon, I'll silently chuckle at these little outbreaks hoping my e-mail never chmods anything +x without my permission. As far as this being a black mark for Linux; hardly. The only ones paying attention to that element aren't Windows users, anyway. >:)
Seems to be an awful lot of insurgence about @home. A buddy of mine set his boss up with a Linux firewall/masquerade box at the foot of his Cable connection on @home with an IDS on it. The IDS automatically put firewall rules (ipchains-style) in place and the port-scans from @home administration became a non-event. Box has been running for 3 months without a hitch.
A computer consulting company I worked for earlier this year was considering putting a similar database-enabled web-application together at the time, and, I thought it was a pretty good idea. They started to get confused, however, at the prospect of spoofed IP's and forged logs and failed to put it in place. So, I think dshield.org is on to something, if they can execute and do it without incriminating some innocent party.
I'd prefer to see such a service emanating from a nonprofit entity similar to w3c.org, though, to eliminate any integrity issues.
Incidentally, I just forward the relevant port scans from my FreeBSD firewall and Linux servers (port 111 and friends) to their ISPs and that usually takes care of things. More work for the ISP, but, I'd bet it's helpful over time....
Hardly, at least, I didn't see anything interesting mentioned by Kaplan in the article, but, his statements smack of someone emboweled with something rigid back in the backside.
I agree that no one should be jailed for portscanning; but, no one should be portscanning, either.

It's clear Linux is gaining in the server market. This will become even more significant once trials with Linux on enterprise hardware, like the S390 meet the scrutiny of the hardware manufacturers and their clients.
The PC Server market will only grow due to the TCO. What isn't being factored in by the Gartner Group is the impact of embedded systems and derivative systems by chip makers. Only stands to reason that rolling out embedded systems can't help but be accelerated when licensing concerns aren't a factor.

Maybe not; but, the trend is disturbing. I hope other curious folk out there aren't missing this message. I happen to be pretty curious, too. Just too busy, right at the moment to raise these kinds of flags.

Or, more importantly, will it be running after the results are posted?
Additionally, as someone else who posted asked, can Carnivore monitor my reviewing of the interview simply by my connecting to./ to educate myself on your remarks? (I run my own networks through fairly non-interesting ISPs).

Whoops!!! Was that my little 486/33Mhz thinkpad? Dammit! I did the wrong machine. But, seriusly, do the math: 22.53 * 86400 = 1946592. That's close to 2 MM hits/day for a standard 15K static file.
