    It has nothing to do with mixing up the issue, just more examples of cases where *freedom of speech* does not apply. Too many people seem to think freedom of speech means you can say anything you like. It doesn't quite work out that way.

    Wrong, freedom of speech is not limitless, and both of those would fall outside of the realm of what is allowed, sorry. I'm sure from your armchair over there, you'd like to believe you can say, and express anything you like and be protected. Back here in reality it doesn't work that way.

    Taking advantage of small children has nothing to do with being able to say what you want. I tell you what, I'll murder you, and your entire extended family, and we'll call it even on the grounds of freedom of speech. Deal?

    But knowing that the TPB has opened with it being a haven for child pornography in mind, I can't say I'm pleased. I realize they believe in freedom of expression, but some things just don't need a venue, and child pornography is one of them.

    For reference for those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about.

    So he was guilty. Given the amount of money he amassed spamming, my guess would be he gets 1 year at most and then some probation. Money makes the judicial system go round in this country.

    How is the access *unequal*? Google can sign an NDA and get just as much access to that kernel as MSFT. What google is whining about is that it's now *HARDER* for them to search. It's also *HARDER* for msft folks to search because they have to go through the same permission schema as everyone else. I'm sure you really really hate MSFT, and really really love google, but google is being the whiny bitch this time.

    I would say lack of FC is a far bigger *issue* than iSCSI. Also, last I checked, you can get full sun support on opensolaris... and it's also completely rock solid in my experience. They usually do some pretty extensive testing before allowing commits.

  12. Re:ZFS is great, but... on Does ZFS Obsolete Expensive NAS/SANs? · · Score: 1

    So why do you have to run solaris express instead of Solaris 10 again? As for features, yes, that would require an upgrade. News flash, it requires an upgrade when I want to move to a new version of ONTAP as well... If anything Solaris does a better job of allowing you to patch on the fly than Netapp.

    I've yet to see a talking point that explains WHY I would need to upgrade the system constantly. *WANTING* new features does not mean I *HAVE* to upgrade. As for bugs, again, the CIFS and NFS stack are completely stable *TODAY*. iSCSI target does need work, but then again, iSCSI isn't NAS, and I wouldn't recommend ANYONE use Solaris's iSCSI in production at this point.

    Except the reason it took 9 months was because it wasn't a critical bug for any major customers... Money talks in this world. Something that is *critical* to you doesn't really mean anything to sun if you aren't dropping serious dollars in their pocket. If you were ebay, that bug would've been fixed in a week or less... let's not pretend that Sun doesn't get the job done when they need to.

    My question is, why do you need to patch and continually upgrade the solaris box? You allow nothing but console access to the global zone. In the zone you'll be sharing out from, you only enable cifs/nfs/iscsi, and perhaps SSH (if you don't have kvm over IP). When was the last time solaris had a serious bug in cifs/nfs or ssh? And by serious I mean remote root?

    This may be a *full OS*, but when you only allow people the access they need, which would be to the shares they're using, it should be just as secure as a filer, no matter who is *administrating* it. You *MAY* require a consultant to come in and do the initial setup for you if you don't have the expertise in house, but that is trivial compared to the premium on a filer.

    Except you still have issues and are in a dysfunctional relationship. "Deeply in love" or not. This must be on of those cases where the insane are running the asylum. You go on thinking that's "normal". My guess is you married the first girl who put out, and never figured out what a functional relationship is.

    Again, what is wrong with your relationship that it's so unstable if the line isn't clear enough to *hear them breath* it's going to cause a problem? I've had months where I was traveling for work 25 out of the 30 days, and we got by just fine on cellphones; because in a stable relationship, if something is misunderstood, you explain it and move on. I'm starting to wonder if some of you have ever actually been in a healthy, stable relationship... here's a hint: you can get by just fine on a cellphone if your relationship is functional.

    2 hour phone calls often enough you feel the need to have a permanent landline so that you can hear *the other person breath* to ANYONE, is a sign of dysfunction; sorry. I don't care if it's a parent/sibling or a significant other. If your relationship is so stressed that not interpreting tone of voice can lead to a problem, you've got issues. You're either *ignoramus* or you lack basic social skills. Given your numbered post above, I would guess in your case it's the latter.
