Tiger Server can act as a Primary Domain Controller for a Windows network, and the tool will migrate user and group account from an existing Windows PDC into Open Directory 2 and Samba 3.
Does the author mean a NT4 style PDC or an Active Directory Domain Controller? My guess is NT4 PDC. However, if it is a Windows 2003 Native Mode compatible Domain Controller/Global Catalog, WOW! If it is NT4 PDC, yawn. Not too many folks are running those in the Enterprise, however, I do see the benefit of creating a migration path from Windows to Mac for old, small NT4 networks.
Instead of wasting time of super cool, awesome 3D spinning, rotating and flipping translucent windows with shadows, how about establishing some GUI standards for Linux to make it easier to use for the grandmas and grandpas of the world. No amount of Linux screen real estate bling bling is going to make it a better OS for the common user.
Forgetting that, in their main legal point in pushing for war, Bush/Rice/Powell made *extravagant* claims as to tens of thousands of liters of chemical and biological weapons - literal warehouses full of thousands of shells of ready-to-use WMDs.
Extravagant claims made only by Bush/Rice/Powell? I think not.
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members, though there is apparently no evidence of his involvement in the terrible events of September 11, 2001. It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons. Should he succeed in that endeavor, he could alter the political and security landscape of the Middle East, which as we know all too well affects American security." -- Hillary Clinton, October 10, 2002
"I am absolutely convinced that there are weapons...I saw evidence back in 1998 when we would see the inspectors being barred from gaining entry into a warehouse for three hours with trucks rolling up and then moving those trucks out." -- Clinton's Secretary of Defense William Cohen in April of 2003
"I will be voting to give the president of the United States the authority to use force - if necessary - to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security." -- John F. Kerry, Oct 2002
"(W)e need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime. We all know the litany of his offenses. He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation....And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction. That is why the world, through the United Nations Security Council, has spoken with one voice, demanding that Iraq disclose its weapons programs and disarm. So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real, but it is not new. It has been with us since the end of the Persian Gulf War." -- John Kerry, Jan 23, 2003
"I share the administration's goals in dealing with Iraq and its weapons of mass destruction." -- Dick Gephardt in September of 2002
Guess they are liars as well...
Where are they?
Tell me where Jimmy Hoffa is buried in this country. We have had more luck finding WMD half a world away than Hoffa in our own backyard. We found one shell, now we have found a dozen, the UN inspectors are reporting back to the Security Council that hey have evidence of WMD being shipped out of the country. Time is destroying the "Saddam Hussein had no WMD!!!" meme. Please keep up the charade.
That is such a small amount that hardly justifies the action taken. It is also not clear when or how those entered Iraq. The way the Bush administration talked it up, there was just tons and tons of such weapons laying around. Hmmmm . . .
I have never heard the term "Tons and Tons" presented by the Bush Administration as the sole reason to invade Iraq. If you want to know the reasons, all you have to do is read the 2003 State of the Union. It was clearly mapped out in that speech to the entire nation. You need to start speaking to Democrats first about "talking it up". One of the reasons Clinton bombed the factory in Sudan was due to a link between Iraq and Al Qaeda along with WMD. It was also the Clinton Administration that pushed the Iraqi Liberation act and also included Iraqi ties to Al Qaeda in a Justice Department indictment. You cannot live in a vacuum. George Bush's election did not negate the ties and WMD arguments from the Clinton Administration.
I have yet heard from the anti-Iraqi Liberation crowd why they were not yelling "CLINTON LIED!!!" at the time when he made the very same arguments against Iraq and Al Qaeda. And we did attack Iraq doing the 90s.
At what point did I say that mustard gas was a walk in the park?
You said it can't be counted as a weapon of mass destruction. What is it? A weapon of minor destruction? It was the major reason for chemical weapons being banned by the "Laws of Warfare".
I'm sorry, I thought I was offering an opinion, not representing "the anti-war".
I apologize. I didn't realize your sudden shift in opinion from "No WMD to not the right kind of WMD" was a personal conviction and not a product of an anti-war position.
A case of.22 rounds can also kill thousands of people. The trick is to deliver each round (or dose of Sarin) on target. Seems like the definition of WMD should have a way to account for the difficulty of getting Sarin on target. A dozen shells in reality could kill thousands of people, just as you say. But likely it is not.
That is what the UN found, the method for delivery, banned Al-Samoud 2 missiles.
The M in WMD stands for Mass. I fail to see how a dozen Sarin and Mustard rounds qualifies as being able to cause mass destruction.
One drop of Sarin can kill a man. A shell contains several thousand drops. Three Sarin rounds can kill more people than died on 9/11. That's pretty "mass" if you ask me. If you think Mustard Gas is a walk in the park, read up on WWI.
Now we have to figure out what your version of "Mass" is. Mine comes from UN Resolution 1441. Why does it seem that now we are finding WMD in Iraq, that the anti-war is changing the argument? It's gone from "Saddam had no WMD!!!" to "Saddam didn't have the right amount of WMD!!!".
Really? Why haven't they found them [WMD] after more than a YEAR of being there.
"We've found ten or twelve Sarin and Mustard rounds," said Charles Duelfer, David Kay's replacement in Iraq.
If they haven't found WMD, then those shells do not exist. Also the UN Security Council has been briefed on the WMD that were shipped out of Iraq before and during the Iraqi War.
How interesting. The 9/11 commission just declared none.
So Commission Member Democrat Lee Hamilton is lying?
"There were connections between al- Qaida and Saddam Hussein's government. We don't disagree on that." -- Lee Hamilton
These are facts. Aren't you upset that we have been misled?
No you had Democratic talking points, you were misled. I would ask Micahael Moore for your money back, you let him turn you into a public fool.
Yes! That is why I am not embarrassed to use Mac OS X and its Aqua interface. The problem really is an embarrassment of riches in the linux desktop environment. Like a rice rocket, you got slap on every piece of bling-bling your desktop you can find and the distros are catering to the trend. It won't be long before someone makes a "Type R" desktop.
Does anyone know if the Wifi-box firmware is also at risk? I just flashed my WRT54G with it last night to get SNMPd to make pretty pictures. While this is a really terrible flaw, the source code is GPL. I am sure someone will come up with a fix even if Linksys doesn't in a reasonable period of time.
I will accept the word of any climatic scientist that predict the weather two weeks from today with as much as confidence as they appear to be able to predict the state of weather a couple of years from now. If my local AMS certified local weatherman with Doppler 5000 radar and every other weather doohikie can't predict the weather accurately in their 5 day forecast, what confidence should I have in a scientist telling me that the Statue of Liberty will have snow up to her armpits if I drive a SUV? I have been hearing for decades that we would have mass famine, mass droughts, dead oceans, etc. but they never come about in the apocalyptic scale promoted by environmentalists. After a while, we are going to stop listening to Chicken Little.
Yes, a gallon of Sarin COULD kill over 3,000 people, but you would have to carefully administer it to each and every person.
One drop can kill a man. How many drops are in a gallon? Far more than 3,000.
From everything I've read, this appears to be an old shell from Gulf War I. This does not support Bush's claim that Saddam was making new weapons.
It was a binary shell which Iraq did not have the technology to produce during the Iran-Iraq war or Gulf War I. They did not use "mixing shells" during those wars. It would have to have been produced after Gulf War I. Also, a shell that old would be worthless today from decay. It was fortunate that the US Military was able to dispose this with as little trouble as they did.
They're human beings. They're imprisoned by U.S. forces, and unable to hurt anyone. Their guilt has yet to be established. Also, people all over the world have a right to hold U.S. forces to a higher standard than Saddam's. Or do you disagree?
Our troops do have a higher standard than Saddam's. Our troops don't run around without uniforms on planting road side bombs that injure and kill not only uniformed military personnel but civilians as well. Our troops don't feed prisoners into plastic shredders, feed them to doberman pinchers, bury entire families alive in the desert or drop people into vats of acid -- and we are talking innocent civilians. While making men wear women's underwear on their head and parade around naked is not the nicest thing in the world or stacking them up in naked human pyramids, it is nothing close to what Saddam did -- and these were not innocent civilians.
If your only concern is the safety of your troops, why send the to Iraq of all places?
How about surrounding them in bubble wrap and sticking them in Fort Knox? Or would you rather them fighting terrorists in our streets or the Iraqi streets?
And I think everyone can agree that Iraq had chemical weapons at one time. Maybe this single shell was leftover from that time.
Only one shell? An advanced binary mixing shell with the ability to hold 1 gallon of Sarin? Saddam didn't have those before the 1st Gulf War according to Janes. What about the mustard gas that was discovered? Was it too "just leftover"? How many other things are you going to claim were just leftover when they pop up? And leftover from what? Saddam never declared sarin artillery shells to the UN in 1995.
The only question is did he have enough of them 2 years ago to constitute an imminent threat and neccessitate a war.
The question was answered by the overwhelming number of Senators and House members two years ago. But judging from your use of "imminent threat" when the President expressed during his State of the Union that he would not wait till the threat was imminent is key to identifying the color of your commentary. But is America safer because of the Liberation of Iraq? Yes. Last year, America experienced the lowest number of terrorist attacks, home and abroad, in 20 years according to the State Department. Deposing Saddam Hussein has already born fruit.
