[techtalk] That ZDNet FUD article

2001-06-13 Thread Stacy Brock
Hello all, Got this off the PLUG list. Yet another reason NOT to post links to ZDNet articles on techtalk. :) I can't say too much about the opinions on the writers, but I can say this: take note about writing to the top brass -- if your panties (or boxers, or briefs, whatever) are in a twist, i

[techtalk] Compromise, perhaps?

2001-06-13 Thread Brian Sweeney
Hey all- The other day whilst I was on vacation, another sys admin noticed that check-packages on a machine had been altered, and on that day a login via telnet from an unknown ip was detected. This made him worry, so I checked it out today, and found this in the logs: rpc.statd[341]: gethostby

I have no idea about Cobalt web servers, but if this were a linux box I would think there may be a problem starting a shell. I'm assuming there is one because it uses ssh/telnet. If it is racked at an ISP, do they have support that you can call who will hook up a console (or look at the LCD displ

I'm getting a new printer, hurrah! I'm used to using lpd and magicfilter on Debian for my 11-year-old HP DJ 500. But the new printer I'm getting is a black and white lazer printer, Brother 1250 which is one of their suggested printers in that category. This is according to linuxprinting.org.
