Indeed. That way instead of being sued I could go to jail. Regardless of the realities of it, the judge isn't likely to see it my way... -Original Message- From: Condon Thomas A KPWA [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 25, 2002 11:30 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE:

I actually wrote a script to do something like this, though I'm not sure what I did with it. I gave up on it because I felt that it was a legal risk. It wasn't destructive, just issued the beloved "net stop" command so the remote machine would quit attacking me. Still, a lawsuit would suck. --

This is interesting. That's not the way things are done here at all. I'm not saying it's not a good idea, I've just never heard of it before. I took a number of classes for which I hadn't fulfilled any of the prereq's and it didn't cost me a thing. Intro to Computers was a required course, but

I'm not sure, but since it only supports NW3.x (bindery) filesharing it's not much in demand anymore. Especially since everything since Windows for Warehouses supports MS Networking (and thus Samba) out of the box. -Original Message- From: Chang [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, J

Sure, but that's lossy. The repeated digital-analog conversions distort the sound. If you then convert your .wav to .mp3 you'll probably have definite audible defects, and nobody wants that. That's why most tracks are ripped directly from CDA format into mp3. And that's what copy protection is

The method I use to NAT from a private subnet to a public IP is to use an LRP (Linux Router Project) derived boot disk. The best place I know of to get these is at http://leaf.sourceforge.net . I don't know if they have wireless support or not, though. The one I use for my network is called Oxy

RE: Network Authentication for Linux

In fact, there are many ways to do this. NIS is the most time-honored, but LDAP, Kerberos, NTLM, NDS, and a number of others are available. The system that allows this is called PAM, Pluggable Authentication Modules. Check out /etc/pam.d for the config files. This section of the LDAP HOWTO dis
