RE: Need hardware help in Seattle/Portland area.

Chuck,

I've got a PA-4E, I think works ok.  It didn't work for me in my VXR
because of the combination of cards therein.  I'm in Olympia so you
could make a quick stop on your way to/from Portland if you need it.

Subject: Need hardware help in Seattle/Portland area.



Why does *stuff* always happen on holiday weekends?

Long story, not worth telling* but I find myself in need of a LAN 
port adapter for a Cisco 7200 series router. *Any* twisted pair (10/T 
or 100/T) card will do: PA-4E, PA-8E, PA-FE-TX, or PA2FE-TX. I need 
it before Monday, and am willing to drive anywhere within a 250-mile 
radius of Seattle to get it. I have to be in Portland tomorrow 
(Saturday) hence the subject line.

If anyone has one I can buy, beg, borrow, or... well have in any way, 
please contact me offlist or leave a message at the number below. 
Salescritters welcome, provided they can meet the requirements above.

Thanks in advance.


*The terminally curious can ask for the story, but the telling may 
have to wait until my present situation is resolved.


Regards,

donotcall.gov - special interests vs the public interest

2003-07-04 Thread Roger Marquis 

Tried the website again this morning (7/4) and got:

   "We're sorry. The site is unavailable at the moment. Please
   try again later."

Which is not surprising given the underlying technology:

   # HEAD www.donotcall.gov
   Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0
   X-Powered-By: ASP.NET

Another busy government site using the least secure web server
software.  You can imagine the backend.  Their javascript is also
broken.  It could be worse I suppose, if managed by the USPS...

The site and exceptions list are great examples of the level of
special interest influence in DC.  Unfortunately, their influence
is also a roadblock to national security:

   Bruce Schneier 
   Marcus Ranum 

Anyone here familiar with the subcontractor list for DNC's Internet
servers?

Except some of the loopholes he lists are now gone.  All thats left
are political, charities, telephone surveyors and existing business
relationship calls.

And you can still opt-out on a case by case basis for the charities and the
existing business relationship calls.
