Or that SCO doesn't own UNIX. Or that (the) SUN is setting. Every 5 years... I doubt *I* could keep up with that pace. BTW, I won't get into any further arguments about ftp, mainly I am convinced its usefulness is past. Remember *I* *AM* *CONVINCED*, which means *OPINION*. Sure other options exist, but FTP in the 5 years ago old school sense isn't even optimal anymore except for anonymous/chroot'd (or non-chroot'd for significantly larger values of sane FTPDs) UL/DL.

Assuming the U.S. government doesn't freak out and stop it, IPSEC encryption will soon(?) be used for all internet communication, which should greatly increase the security of every application. Hopefully this encryption will be done in hardware which will take the burden of heavy calculation off of the CPU. In this case, programs like telnet and ftp will once again be desirable as they lack the computational overhead of scp et al. -- Violence isn't cool now that everyone is doing it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Unless you mean soon on an astronomical time scale, and even then I think you're being optimistic. noah pgp9x14MRYHeW.pgp Description: PGP signature
