you have to use an undocumented DLL that can only be found in a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory in an unlit cellar with a sign on the door saying 'beware of the leopard'...
I normally put up a firewall to protect a set of computers "behind" the firewall from attacks from computers "outside" the firewall. While the network you've shown does that for some of the computers "outside", it does nothing to protect "PC (192.168.0.2)" from "broadband router (192.168.1.1)". Far from ideal...
Spam lingo for this phenomenon is "backscatter" or "outscatter" (I prefer the last one, as the bounces are not actually sent "back", but to an
innocent third party). Spam Links as a link collection to get you up

The envelope of Internet mail contains an RFC2821.MailFrom command,
which may supply an address to be used as the recipient of
transmission and delivery notices about the original message.
Existing Internet mail permits unauthorized use of addresses in the
MailFrom command, causing notices to be sent to unwitting and
unwilling recipients. Bounce Address Tag Validation (BATV) defines
an extensible mechanism for validating the MailFrom address. It also
defines an initial use of that mechanism which requires no
administrative overhead and no global implementation.
I've worked for a company making a system that could easily answer a question like that. It really isn't hard to do. If you want to know how much of this is "black magic"/AI and how much is statistics, compare the results of the following two queries:
Who is Canada's prime minister?
Who is NOT Canada's prime minister?
If the system really understand the semantics of the indexed documents, the two result sets should be very different, and both should have a fair number of relevant documents.
If the system is just based on clever use of statistis, the two result sets will include a lot of the same documents, and the result set for the second query will probably have very few relevant documents.
"In December of 2001, Mplayer had the rep of playing more codecs than any other movie player for Linux."
And:
"Joe Barr has been writing about personal computing for 10 years..."
You'd think that after 10 years he would know that movie players doesn't play
codec, they play movies...
Quote:
"After rereading the pertinent section of the docs a few times, I tried moving the skin directory (named Blue) to a new name of "default" instead of moving it into a directory named default. This time it worked."
And:
"Like I said at the start, some things haven't changed at all."
Sure hasn't. Joe Barr is obviously still incapable of reading documentation...
My prediction: He'll be back in another two years to prove once again he's still not capable of understanding simple instructions...
i'm one of the moderators of the personal telco project mailing list (list is open to subscribers, non-subscriber posts are verified to limit spam/virus distribution). when i got up this morning (about 13:00 gmt) the moderation queue had 37 infected messages. it also seems to have knocked my isps (online.no) mailserver over for large parts of the day. i didn't manage to get any mail out that way until this evening.

By the way, it doesn't matter if the missle has a guidance system or not. Just as long as any civilians are killed, Osama and his minions are happy. Very much like the Nazis with the V-1/V-2. Didn't matter if it hit anything important, just as long as it killed a few people in London.
or the us and british imperialism's vicious bombing of Dresden's civilians. somewhere between 35,000 and 135,000 civilians were killed in the feb. 13-14, 1945 attack. if you're interested in learning the truth about the bombing, google for "bombing of dresden". not hard to see where todays "terrorists"/freedom fighters get their ideas. if it's true that you reap what you sow, certain nations still has a lot of reaping to do.

someone that doesn't know squat about vms, and has 4 days to learn says:
"We're not doing development, just security reviews, so I'm not totally screwed."
i have no idea how to even respond to that. if taking this job was your idea, i'd suggest to get into som other line of work (like sweeping streets). if someone you work for put you on this project, i suggest you explain to them why this is a bad idea. this may require the help of a large hammer.
to think they can win a case like this. these people are probably only doing this to get some free press (and it seems to be working). my advice to anyone would be; don't talk about it, don't write about it, and if you have to, don't mention there name.
Being a Norwegian from a nynorsk-dominated part of the country, I find the parent and "parent's parent" (grandfather?) of this post quite amusing indeed.
i'd go with grand parent. that way you keep the feminists of your back:-)
The parent post seems to be posted by a kid from Oslo.
i was born in the sixties, so i'm thinking "kid" is kind of stretching it a little...
but i think you missed my point. i support everyones right to speak whatever language they want. what pisses me of is that kids in school are forced to waste their time learning this useless(1) language instead of of spending their time on something relevant.
btw: it was never my intention to call anyone nynorsk-nazi, but rather language-nazi. i'm sure they are just as bad on both "sides" of the fence.
(1): nynorsk is useless for most norwegian to study as we already understand it quite well, and the speakers of nynorsk understand us. norwegian kids, whos everyday language is bookmaal, doesn't learn nynorsk to be able to communicate with their countrymen, but for some fucked-up political reason.
The fact that the 4.5 million Norwegians think they can make (or have to make) such a demand is, for what is mainly a quaint political issue, largely based on their oil-wealth.
it get worse. there's nowhere near that number of people who think this is a good idea. most civilized norwegians (born and raised in a city in the south of the country) would prefere never to hear of nynorsk ever again. this would be a guesstimated 80% of the norwegian population.
now, i'm all for leting people speak whatever language they want, but these nynorsk language-nazies even force us to learn it in school.
I don't think I've ever seen a country so full of paranoia as America.
i wouldn't know, i'm norwegian (and have no desire to travle to the us)
I don't think a few hundred thousand gun owners can do much against tanks, F-16s, carriers, napalm, smart bombs, nuclear weapons, etc, etc.
one handgun is all it takes to assasinate a leader or to hijack a plane. both can be effective ways of battling an oppressive regime.
I bet sometime in the last month you went and watched a movie released by a major studio, while drinking a Coke, Nikes on your feet, Gap t-shirt on your back, and drove home in your Honda.
haven't paid money for a movie for a few years, the few movies i do see i get of some p2p network. not that i don't have the money, i just don't feel like financing their "war on freedom". never owned a nike product, never owned a gap product (proud of both). i do drink diet coke though (not proud of that), and i drive a suzuki jeep though i don't see what that has to do with anything?

That's 'cause Apache is confused about it's proper name. You see, when you request the URL without the trailing slash, and Apache sees it's (the URL) refering to a directory it redirects the client to a URL containing a trailing slash. This is done so that relative URLs will work. To do the redirect, Apache needs to know it's own name. See: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#use canonicalname

What good is a firewall with only one Ethernet port?

the story on the wasted 98% was about the . (dot) root servers, not about a tld server. you (and sadly, too many others) should read rfc 1035.
