I'm trying to make an older PC display high-def streaming video. It's
a Dell Inspiron Desktop 530, with 2 gigs of ram, assembled and shipped
August 2007. It has an Intel dual core (*NOT* a "Core Duo") cpu like so
(from /proc/cpuinfo).

Hi all,
I was reading up on some iptables rules in the gentoo security handbook:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/security/security-handbook.xml?part=1&chap=12&style=printable
It mentions DROPing packets with an INVALID state.
It sounded/sounds like a good idea, so I added the following rule:

For archive purposes is there a simple way for me to make a

Assume that I've got the right sort of DVD drive, I guess something
capable of writing dual-layer DVDs.
Thanks,

No; you'll have to decrypt, or do without the encrypted bits.
dvdbackup is probably the closest to what you want.

No, dvdbackup just creates a readable mirror copy from the directory tree on
the DVD. You need to use mkisofs -dvd-video to create a new ISO image that can
