@DanBig I've resorted to blocking whole /24s that have been sources of spam. I've got 3 blocked now and spam's down to a normal trickle. Notified the operators of those networks, but they seem like the kind of shady places that don't give a f--- until their IPs all get blacklisted by a major service.
@Bob the VMWare vCenter Appliance has not telnet and one of my guys is struggling to prove to our FW team that a port is down and we'd normally just telnet to the port but it's not installed
@ChrisS utorrent, though I prefer to avoid torrenting wherever possible. So it's my favorite, but I basically just found one that wasn't total shit a few years ago, and still use it.
I ran rtorrent a while back, then ctorrent (with CTCS for webgui), then Transmission, then I got tired of trying to force a *nix torrent client to work and just stick to Tixati in Windows now.
@HopelessN00b The legal stuff is mostly OSS. The quasi might be something like the international Code Council's Construction Code. It's copyrighted, but it's also adopted as law in the US (and therefor cannot be copyrighted), but they still claim copyright... I'd rather not find out how much it costs to win a copyright lawsuit, but I'm not too worried about them chasing me down either.
@jscott MS wants you to use their download application, they don't provide those links directly. But as @pauska found out, the downloader sucks donkey balls.
@ChrisS Yeah, I got the Desktop ISO yesterday, if you click "cant install" on the downloader thing and then go through the registration steps a second time, they give you the "real" link.
The worst part of being 6'3" is that your crotch is right at count-top height, so if you splash while washing your hands it looks like you pissed yourself.
Statistically, the tallest people in the world, as measured by country are the Dutch. The average height for all adults for the Netherlands is 6 feet 1 inch (1.85 m).
@HopelessN00b LOL, Nope. All the ones there that are worth spending any time with are married. The rest of parasites. And this homey don't mess around anyway.
Heh, mail server caught a couple .wmv files in its content filter (filtering out certain extensions). I'll give you one guess on what the content was...
@DennisKaarsemaker joy of joys. At least you don't have to worry about the AWS ones. The basic setup UI is busted such that you can't set the password to anything but the default and still have it proceed to the next screen at login.
at least in our region. F5 things that the AMI for our region is broken....
And, of course, their solution is to try it in another region....
The "BIOS" option does say "Boot from Legacy Network adapter", so it shouldn't be too mysterious
I think all the previous version of Hyper-V called it a Legacy Network Adapter by default too (the name shown in the configuration is set in the XML file, so you can name it the "My Little Pony Adapter" if you want, but the name also caries forward when you migrate a VM from an older machine to a newer host)
so many years ago, I used duplicity to back up a few ad-hoc *nix machines to S3. Are there any other similar options I should be considering for some new systems?
@ewwhite So I am trying to free up a large chunk of budget and was toying with the idea of buying two ASA5520's on eBay for $1,000 each and putting them in Active/Standby HA. What I wanted to do was to get two 5505's but Cisco won't sell them to me and they want me to buy a 5512-X at almost 10x the price
On paper it sounds like a dumb idea, but in practice there's sitll an awful lot of the previous gen ASA's still in production. You still run a 5510 don't you?
@Magellan I paid a lot to get my facial topiary trimmed yesterday. I think that's a vice. I enjoyed the hour long face massage that came along with it.
Does anyone have the patch number for Solaris 8...I have it for 10 and it works, just need the number for 8
