I had this problem a few months ago. For about two months straight, my
cable modem went down three or four times a day for anywhere from 10
minutes to two hours. I called them every single time because they kept

I've had mediaone for about 4 years. Shortly after I got Mediaone I had
some strange outages and the customer service person diagnosed it as a
problem with my tranceiver (my original cable modem was AUI). The service
person came out, and checked the wires from the polse al the way to the

Has anyone had trouble getting the modules to build on alpha with this
version of the kernel?? Everytime I try to build them it kicks out part
of the code with no error message just after making the pcmcia directory
(pcmcia is off in my kernel config).

Hi all,
Anyone know what the /etc/passwd- and /etc/shadow- files are? They appear to
be backup versions of /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow, but I can't seem to find
any documentation even acknowledging the existence of these files. Anyone
know?
Thanks,

I haven't looked at their methods, but perhaps they're looking at the TCP
sequence numbers or port
Evidently they are picking out the uptime info from nuances in the TCP
and/or IP *headers*. Isn't this amazing? Anyone know how it works
for uptime?

Mandatory Access Controls, so B-level certifications are right
