I hate that everyone makes fun of my “signature” :(
At least, your emails don't get classified as spam because of our last
name.
It’s not even a signature. It gets appended by our stupid gateway
appliance :\
gmail. Just saying.

Subject: [brlug-general] UNIX password sync
Hi everyone-
We have a UNIX network of 50+ Linux servers plus a few Solaris
boxes. We
need to keep user accounts and passwords synchronized.
This would be easy enough with NIS, NIS+, LDAP, or AD, but there is a
requirement that no central directory or database be used. The
solution
has to be distributed across the servers in question.
Does anyone know of a solution, commercial or open source, that can do
this?
[Distributed peer-to-peer authentication | decentralized trust
management] is a Flying Dutchman. Search Google for it; lots of
scholarly papers, no implementations.
You _could_ disguise one tiny Linux box as a paperweight, make it
the Kerberos master KDC, the rest of the boxes slave KDCs and sync
the auth DB every so often with a cron job, but that's just silly.

Postlethwaite & Netterville Implements New Email Encryption Software
to Further Protect Confidential Data
Confidentiality is a hallmark of the accounting profession and it is
of the utmost importance to our client
relationships. At P&N, we are committed to keeping your data
confidential which is why we are implementing
new email encryption software. This software inspects all outbound
emails from our firm. Emails that
contain attachments will require you to enter a password to download
the file. This ensures that your
confidential data cannot be read by anyone other than the intended
recipient.
Emails with attachments will include a link to a secure web server.
Click on the link to download the attachment.
The first time you receive a secure email from the firm you will be
required to setup a password. This will
be your password to access future attachments. For our clients and
others, there will be a small step to
download the encrypted files; however, we believe the added
confidentiality benefits far outweigh the few
seconds that are required to access the attachment.
If you have questions regarding this new process or if you forget
your password, please contact Jessica Aymond,
P&N Network Administrator, at 225.922.4600.
