I thought this was going to be a thread about Ubuntu interesting project though!

just tell them to read man pages and RFC's during their lunch

Ha, good to see a fellow xkcd reader! but when you post a link you should always aref it because you cant read the 'onhover' jokes too! and if you hadnt noticed them, your gonna have to go back and them all again!

Yea i know that only too well, but the posts did get several replies. Im not saying they were from core dev's but even still, you think one of them would've picked up such a school boy error lol. Crazy really.

great insight ajtaylor. Blame cant really be fully squared at the debian dev though, as he did consult the open-ssl dev mailing list and according to openssl's website the core dev's read that list...apparantly not though.

It happend because they suck. Debian OpenSSL Predictable PRNG Toys Fantastic quick work from HDM. shows the dangers of this bug, and the sloppiness of the devs. Its funny reading the open-ssl mailing list post here: #521: [PATCH] Avoid uninitialized data in random buffer Clearly no idea what they were doing, now anyone using keys to auth are under severe threat.

Hm, thats interesting, why dont you try printing the contents of your $_POSTS to try to debug?

Id hate for this to be the problem but, is your address a gmail account? or gamil account? lol

Yea, which is quite scary really. I mean if you take a look at the way cookies where generated pre WP 2.5, they are calculated like this, md5(md5($userpw_hash)), and what that means is, any hacker armed with a WP SQL injection (be it in core source or in a plugin of some sort) can generate a valid cookie for that user and simply refresh the page and bang, you are admin. Im not sure wether WP 2.5 still uses this but i remember reading recently that there are cookie bugs on user signout that can allow elavated privilages. That was possibly fixed in 2.5.1 though. Also you can add to it the source bloating, from 2.3.3 a whole meg of source has been added, you may what AJAX upload boxes, but id rather have efficent secure code as my foundations.

I question that should be put to the dev's is why isnt the wp-cache plugin core? I wouldnt want to run WP on any webserver of mine, have new vulnerbilities all the time.

WP 2.5 uses an ajax file upload i think, and ajax is the death of the internet! also use WP if you want to use all your webservers memory, it sucks! Coding Horror: Behold WordPress, Destroyer of CPUs A security vulnerbility every month isnt cool, use MoveableType!

1) im on 13k pro rata, senior tech 17k 2) me and senior tech 3) 6 servers , 300 PC's, 150 laptops 4) VLE, website, camera's, IWB, projector fitting, all ordering, manage email system 5) support 9 primary schools I get the feeling we being paid well under par

thats quite a good comparison, you can stick to your young ladies with fancy nice looking flash websites...il have my mature static html website whos dev's "know what they are doing"

Metasploit framework Also as a sidenote, performance boils down to the programmer a lot of the time. take a look at Wordpress vs Moveable Type, yes PHP vs perl. Whilst wordpress is more fashionable Moveable type owns it in every way.. check this link on wordpress performance (Link saying all that though, im not a fan of Ruby much either. like iv said previously on here, Perl has 20 years of dev time and MASSIVE modular support, it wont be beaten! el8

Depends what you want to learn it for, fun or a specific task? PHP sucks as a language but being proficient in it is useful if you run a website. Perl rocks, you can talk all you want about RoR but think about how much time has gone into Perl, its over 20 years old! and with the release of 5.10 its adopted a few things from Ruby, like simple things like say() so you dont have to supply a \n with a print() Then you have CPAN? (cpan.org)what other language has got such a large module base? "6569 authors 13454 modules" i think you'll struggle to find anything that can compete in terms of quality in the modules either. Mightily impressive. And like i said earlier, if its for fun then do C! drop ++ and #, C will teach you so so much more about memory management and how computers really work!

Iv decided to do it the other way around, Experiance then university. Hopefully that will get me a better graduate job, id never work in education again though.

yeah, in your login scripts you could execute your grep command as the student UID. something like grep -r STRING c:\cookies\* >> \\server1\coolshare\cookies.txt EDIT: > != >>

Lol, dont worry, nobody ever thanks me

cd E:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Backup\ SET _day=%date:~0,2% SET _month=%date:~3,2% SET _year=%date:~6,6% SET date=%_day%%_month%%_year% copy wbls m:\eclipsebackups\wbls-%date% i wrote that to get around the fact that date /t contains /'s which are invalid in folder names (yeah, way to go M$) hope that works for you

IF %COMPUTERNAME%==ITROOM1-01 GOTO IT1 IF %COMPUTERNAME%==ITROOM2-01 GOTO IT2 :IT1 call \\server1\netlogon\it1.bat :IT2 call \\server1\netlogon\it2.bat etc etc, you get the jist %computername% is an environment variable, you can do echo %computername% in cmd.exe to see how it works.

Hrm, thats interesting. after re-reading your first post i kinda understand what you mean now, something similar to how skype interacts with numbers in your webbrowser. I think you'll definatly need to hook some Windows API stuff, il look into it a little further when i get a spare minute. National Do Not Call List Phone Number Check 1.3 - Safe Caller is the leading phone number checking & dialing Do Not Call List Software for telemarketers. is cabable of what you want, but also not what you need, id imagine it will be pretty easy once you figure out what API you have to hook into. Download Text Capture SDK Free Trial - Text Capture SDK is a pure Delphi package of a Text Hooking DLL and a Word Capture Sample Program, Text Hooking DLL captures... maybe have a play with some tools like that first? let me know how you get on

Need more info..is this within a webbrowser? perhaps a screenshot of the floating bubbles? lol If it is a webbrowser paste me the html and il knock something up.

Webmin is bad in general, some of the perl code in it is terrible! I'd configure it manually, id imagine there are alot of docs online on how to setup squid and dansguardian.

well, its the right word if you already told us about when did you 'disclose' the info? Its just the boring tasks for me (printers, whiteboards, dumb teachers) - id prefer a software job really.

After college i applied to alot of schools (holidays do appeal ) but never got an interview. Then i got lucky and a job came up at my old school (nothin like havin your old form tutor as your referee ) I just figured it would be good for my C.V when i finish uni, we'll see though as iv learn't school network tech's arn't really valued anywhere...in the world lol.
