Hey Denison - been there lots of times!

In IL, the Governer and AG were taken by surprise as prices in central IL 
were jacked up to $3-5!  Supposedly it's come down a bit since then, but 
not all the way down to the already too high $1.85.  Neither the Gov nor 
the AG were at all amused by this...

My sympathies and thoughts go out to everyone directly affected by these
cowardly acts. My thoughts also go out to the millions of us indirectly
affected.


Now to bring a slightly on-topic slant to the discussions - in recent months
there has been considerable debate on Carnivore (the FBI's electronic
snooping tool). In order to increase our security, I'm sure we Americans
are going to have to give up some of our personal freedom and privacy. As
IT pro's, has anyone's opinion of Carnivore changed? I know if someone had
asked me the question on Monday, I was adamantly against Carnivore. Today,
I'm willing to accept some software black-box scanning my email looking

For all of your arguments to prevail  you must accept the premise that both

Subject: A few thoughts on today's events


First:

Thanks to those outside of the US who have expressed concern and support. It
is much appreciated. I don't live anywhere near NYC, but as a US citizen and
a simple human being I am distraught by these events, and wish the best for
those who've been affected.

As usual, people across America have mostly responded by trying to comfort
and care for those who have been directly affected by the attack. It's not
for nothing that citizens of the US are known as the most generous in the
world, and the most practical.

Erik Goldoff's forwarded post from his IT director is spot on, and also much
appreciated.



Second:

It does not matter, in some senses, who did this. What matters is why it
happened. While steps do need to be taken to detect and punish the
perpetrators, this problem will not fade simply because the US will have
(probably) killed whoever did this. In many places across the world, the US
is hated, and with reason. The US government has since World War II been
instrumental in destabilizing many democratically elected regimes, and has
sided with tyrants and dictators, so long as they supported US foreign
policy, or were willing to be puppets. The main target for many years was
Communism, although after the Berlin wall fell the focus changed, and has
continued to change, to whatever enemy of the day is fixated upon.

Cuba, Iraq, Iran, Syria, North Korea, Afghanistan, Osama bin Laden, PFLP,
DFLP, etc., etc., etc. are all targets now, but whether now or in the past,
the US government has pursued its ends with means that are not in keeping
with the stated values that most Americans cherish and profess to believe.

American foreign policy has tried to direct events and attitudes across the
world, but it has often not had a coherent aim, usually trying simply to
keep a lid on various situations, or trying to reward those who have toed
our line. Its overseas agenda has been chaotic, perverse and inexplicable.
We will suffer more for it.

The easiest example is right now the most relevant - Israel and the
Palestinians.

I won't try to say who is right or wrong in that conflict, but suffice it to
say there is blame enough for both sides, and the US government has been
neck-deep in it. Worse, the US government has sent conflicting signals since
the beginning.

It's overly simplistic to say that we are hated because we have tried to be
the world's policeman. If we were only that, we would have far fewer
problems. The problem is that we are the corrupt cop on the world beat;
sometimes meddling where we shouldn't, sometimes turning a blind eye where
we shouldn't, often picking on the wrong party in a conflict, and in general
being ham-handed and incompetent in the patrolling of our self-appointed
rounds and the execution of our self-appointed duties.

I'll make one last point here, which has been stated elsewhere - I don't
believe that you can find a large terrorist attack anywhere that wasn't
sparked by some long-standing pattern of government interference where it
wasn't wanted and wasn't justified. If the US government hadn't elected
itself the world's policeman, this wouldn't have happened. Still on point,
if the US government hadn't been such a corrupt cop, this probably wouldn't
have happened, although it possibly might still have. That's harder to
discern. Whether or not we should be the world's policeman is a separate
matter, but if we must be, we should be a good cop, not a bad cop.


Third:

The fallout from this outside of realm of the immediate (i.e., our
military/political response to the actual attack) is going to take a long
time to see. Economically speaking, the WTC housed some really influential
firms, and major offices for many more. People are worrying about gas
prices, among other things. You should be aware that fluctuations in
commodity prices will fluctuate for a while, and that gold and oil prices
will rise for a while - mainly because they are real stores of value, and
are, er, liquid assets.

Longer term, there may be flight of capital from the US because of loss of
confidence in the security of the country. Or not. There may be serious
erosion of civil liberties. Or not. I'd bet on the former in each case, but
I hope for the latter. However, I believe that that the longer-term effects
will be

I have used sniffer, the log gets incredibly big in a short period of time.
So, the idea of scanning an ip address or email header for certain patterns
would only be possible.
Wiretaps are common, but you can only monitor so many phones at a time.
Same here with email and this Carnivore black box.  So you ask yourself, are

If not, then why worry, sniffer doesn't work well on switched networks and

that took place yesterday (no relatives), we will all be affected by this
dastardly deed for a long time to come.  My heart goes out to those who have
experienced a loss.  Even today, I still am in shock at what happened.  At
the same time, let us pray that our leaders make informed and wise decisions
in the aftermath of what has happened.

My sympathies and thoughts go out to everyone directly affected by these

affected.

Now to bring a slightly on-topic slant to the discussions - in recent months
there has been considerable debate on Carnivore (the FBI's electronic
snooping tool).  In order to increase our security, I'm sure we Americans
are going to have to give up some of our personal freedom and privacy.  As

asked me the question on Monday, I was adamantly against Carnivore.  Today,
I'm willing to accept some software black-box scanning my email looking

RE: OT? perspective of events

2001-09-12 Thread Narkis, John


First of all I would like to express my heartfelt sadness for those who lost
friends, family and collegues to this disaster. May it be a reminder to all
Americans and other democratic countries around the world that there is a
REAL threat to freedom and capitolism, and the need for a strong military
presence is necessary, for no other reason that to be used as a deterrant
for such activity in the future. May we also not forget the loss of military
personel in the Pentagon, who by the nature of thier job put themselves at
risk everyday to defend us against these kinds of threats. While they may
not have been able to forsee this attack, who can know how many countless
attempts were foiled by our intelligence agencies. May we all stand united
behind our president and country to see us through such a horrible and
devistating tragedy. While everybody agrees that some sort of response is
warranted, let us not forget that part of the responsibility of being the
only superpower in the world carries the burden of not responding in the
same cowardly fashon. We need to have a swift and deliberate response to
this, but also be sure that those who are targeted are those who are
responsible. America has to display discipline in this kind of situatuion
not a knee jerk reaction that would reflect the acts of a 3 year old having
a tantrom.

As for mail sniffing I am in total opposition to this kind of technology to
be in use. This steps on the very fringes that makes this country free. The
thing that worries me the most is the ramifications of such systems being in
use, it could easily be turned against us if they were to fall into the
wrong hands. It could also lead to unwarranted harrassment for those that
are undeserving. Just as in military operations, I'm sure that if email was
used as a tool for communications to coordinate something like what happened
yesterday, I'd bet that cryptic messages were sent between parties that were
involved so that even if there were a method in place to ping on key words,
that kind of traffic would probably never be caught. I would also suspect
that even if messages were intercepted, the amount of time and resources
necessary to read them, figure out if it's real or not and then react on it
will most likely be to late.

No matter how you look at this those who are determined to do things as we
all witnessed yesterday will stop at nothing. It is very difficult to defend
against that kind of determination, especially when the idea is to take as
many lives a possible as a result.


One other note.. Gas prices here have remained stable, 

1.30 for 87
1.41 for 89
1.52 for 93

May God console those in thier loss and bless this country as we deal with
this tragic course of events. Admist all this devistation and destruction is
was nice to see those out there helping each other where they can. 


John

Cannot Get Connected Via VPN

2001-09-12 Thread Robert Jackson


Hi All,

I have a situation where we have remote users dialling an ISP to get onto
the Internet before using a PPTP VPN dial-up connection to gain access
to a Terminal Server running various applications. The problem I currently
am experiencing is that during the attempted connection to the VPN, the
following error occurs:-

'Error 629 you have been disconnected from the computer you dialled'. Once
at this point we have found that re-booting the remote pc/laptop sometimes
allows the user to log into the VPN.

Has anyone experienced this particular problem? If so could you shed some
light on possible causes and resolutions?


TIA,
Rab.

RE: NewYork Terrorist Attack

2001-09-12 Thread Jang Man


That's true. Americans have saved our european butt many times, most notably in WWI 
and WWII. And deserve all credits for that. And deserve all help they need from rest 
of us.
 
It's not simply black and white world with good and bad guys. And I also agree with 
Kevin's observations in his Perspective of events thread. Power and strenght has been 
misused many times. Many people see USA as evil empire which is responsible for world 
injustice and exploatation. But America didn't invent current monetary and economic 
system. America is just taking advatage of this system to it's fullest potential and 
this is called bussiness. So many people don't think there is something wrong, because 
they are just doing bussiness.
 
It's rooted in 18th century and was established by British empire while it was 
dominant force in the world. One of Rotschilds said at that time something like I 
don't care who is in power as long as I controll the bank. He, who issues the money, 
has all the power over the rest, by controlling interest rate and value of money.
 
One economist predicted WWII in year 1918, just after end of WWI. Greater ad more 
devastating war will occure in less than 25 years if we don't radically change current 
monetary system. And it happend in less than 25 years.
It's a flaw by design. It's like house made of playing cards. We can't make this world 
better place to live while based on current economic foundations. There will always be 
huge differences, rich and poor and struggle and tensions based on national/religious 
and other excuses. But basically, it's economic struggle. 
 
I don't see bright future here. For many years I feel like I am living at the end of 
Roman empire and just observing it's inevitable end. I hope I am mistaken.

Subject: Re: NewYork Terrorist Attack


This, from a Canadian newspaper, is worth sharing. 
 
 
America: The Good Neighbor. 
 
Widespread but only partial news coverage was given recently to a 
remarkable editorial broadcast from Toronto by Gordon Sinclair, 
a Canadian television commentator. 
What follows is the full text of his trenchant remarks as 
printed in the Congressional Record: 
 
 
This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the Americans as 
the most generous and possibly the least appreciated people 
on all the earth. 
Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and Italy were 
lifted out of the debris of war by the Americans who poured in 
billions of dollars and forgave other billions in debts. 
None of these countries is today paying even the interest 
on its remaining debts to the United States. 
 
When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956, it was the 
Americans who propped it up, and their reward was to be insulted 
and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it. 
 
When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the United States 
that hurries in to help. This spring, 59 American communities 
were flattened by tornadoes. Nobody helped. 
 
The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped billions of dollars 
into discouraged countries. Now newspapers in those countries are 
writing about the decadent, warmongering Americans. 
 
I'd like to see just one of those countries that is gloating over 
the erosion of the United States dollar build its own airplane. 
Does any other country in the world have a plane to equal 
the Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10? 
If so, why don't they fly them? 
Why do all the International lines except Russia fly American 
Planes? 
 
Why does no other land on earth even consider putting a man or 
woman on the moon? 
You talk about Japanese technocracy, and you get radios. 
You talk about German technocracy, and you get automobiles. 
 
You talk about American technocracy, and you find men on the 
moon-not once, but several times-and safely home again. 
You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs right 
in the store window for everybody to look at. 
 
Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. They are 
here on our streets, and most of them, unless they are breaking 
Canadian laws, are getting American dollars from ma and pa at home 
to spend here. 
 
When the railways of France, Germany and India were breaking down 
through age, it was the Americans who rebuilt them. 
When the Pennsylvania Railroad and the New York Central went broke, 
nobody loaned them an old caboose. 
Both are still broke. 
 
I can name you 5000 times when the Americans raced to the help of 
other people in trouble. Can you name me even one time when 
someone else raced to the Americans in trouble? 
I don't think there was outside help even during the San Francisco 
earthquake. 
 
Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm one Canadian who is 
damned tired of hearing them get kicked around.

RE: A few thoughts on today's events

2001-09-12 Thread Jesse E. Gardner


Mr. Dionne,

Do you actually believe everything that you've just written?

Especially these sections:

Many times details of the politics behind situations are kept quiet, but
overall I think we are given the straight scoop by government and the media.
It is always good to question what we are told, and our press does that very
well.

I adamantly disagree that we are the bad cop on the beat.  Many look upon
the US badly because of our status in the world.  We are active and support
American Interests around the world to protect ourselves, as well as foster
world peace and stability.  Using the phrase under the yoke of the US is
propaganda.  We have no national purpose of holding other nations down for
powers sake.  There is no yoke of the US.

Sir, with all due respect, you are either sheltered from life itself and
don't get out much.  Or you're too young to be involved in a discussion like
this.  But you're definitely uninformed if you dismiss all of Mr. Buff's
comments as X-file-ish.

Mr. Dionne, do you why the US bombed Japan during WWII?  Sir, do you know
the real reason we went to the defense of Kuwait?

I am not going to get into a debate with you about these things.  A simple
yes or no will suffice with me.  As I respectfully do not place much
credence in an Americans' opinion (yours), who appears to be blinded with
'love of his country.'

X-File-ish.  Sure US policy has not always been correct, we make mistakes
like every other country. Fighting the Soviet Union we had to sometimes
choose stability over more democratic opposition.  Your comments imply some
sort of conspiracy in hiding or coloring historical events like JFK, etc.
Many times details of the politics behind situations are kept quiet, but
overall I think we are given the straight scoop by government and the media.
It is always good to question what we are told, and our press does that very
well.

We support Israel because it is the right thing to do.  But, we also support
a Palestinian state.  It is up to them to come to terms however.  In the
modern world the US has to be engaged in the world or pay the consequences.
This means making decisions on what governments to support, taking or not
taking military action, etc.  In general the US government and it's people
(us) support and respect the world's diversity.  We may preach, but we do
not conquer.

I adamantly disagree that we are the bad cop on the beat.  Many look upon
the US badly because of our status in the world.  We are active and support
American Interests around the world to protect ourselves, as well as foster
world peace and stability.  Using the phrase under the yoke of the US is
propaganda.  We have no national purpose of holding other nations down for
powers sake.  There is no yoke of the US.

I know there are points of view at odds with the United States, but we have
to stand up for our interests and principles.  The bottom line is we cannot
please everyone, but we have to make the effort to live with everyone in the
world.  Being strong and outspoken in the world, is enough of a cause for
other nations and peoples to be resentful of the US. The major cause of
today's events is the clash of Western and Islamic culture.  There should be
room enough for all of us.  But it is not the United States who is turn this
into an us against them argument.  In fact the political use of Jihad
really does a great disservice to Islam.

What it comes down to is we must fight for freedom, even if it appears we
are the bully of the world.  Just imagine the current government of China
were in charge, and see who would complain than.

Thanks to those outside of the US who have expressed concern and support. It
is much appreciated. I don't live anywhere near NYC, but as a US citizen and

those who've been affected.

As usual, people across America have mostly responded by trying to comfort

RE: OT? perspective of events

2001-09-12 Thread John Hanks


There are a number of problems you leave out. First, I have sniffed a
switched network before and it is not that hard. You need only overflow
a switch with more bogus MAC addresses than it can handle and suddenly
you have a hub. Even without any effort my snort box picks up loads of
traffic it shouldn't behind two switches. You can probably assume you
are safe from sniffing behind a router, unless there is a compromised
box behind it with you.

Second, you may have plenty to be afraid of. If someone sends you an
html mail with a linked image from a child porn site, by having it open
by accident in a preview window you could suddenly be catogorized as a
child porn viewer by some automatic tool. I have had several very
disturbed and concerned users contact me about incidents like this with
html mail.

I have no worries about reactions to this tragedy as I beleive that the
vast majority of indivuals have good intentions even if their actions
aren't perfect. What I worry about are overreactions. I woke up today
much angrier than I was yesterday and I can think of some pretty
horrible overreactions that I might be willing to support in the
aftermath of the attacks. One can only hope that the leaders of my
country and others have a better handle on their emotions than the
general population.

 I read about this.  It's a NT box running a kinda Sniffer software.
 I have used sniffer, the log gets incredibly big in a short

 So, the idea of scanning an ip address or email header for 
 certain patterns
 would only be possible.
 Wiretaps are common, but you can only monitor so many phones

 Same here with email and this Carnivore black box.  So you

 If not, then why worry, sniffer doesn't work well on switched

OK,

As far as I know, there were no refineries hit yesterday (yes, this is the

only be considered price gouging. Surely these stores are small ones owned
by people who are looking to take advantage of this tragedy?? Who owns
them? I cant imagine Chevron/Texaco/Mobile doing this (not that they
wouldn't in a different circumstance).

That's true. Americans have saved our european butt many times, most notably
in WWI and WWII. And deserve all credits for that. And deserve all help they

It's not simply black and white world with good and bad guys. And I also
agree with Kevin's observations in his Perspective of events thread. Power
and strenght has been misused many times. Many people see USA as evil empire
which is responsible for world injustice and exploatation. But America
didn't invent current monetary and economic system. America is just taking
advatage of this system to it's fullest potential and this is called
bussiness. So many people don't think there is something wrong, because they
are just doing bussiness.

It's rooted in 18th century and was established by British empire while it
was dominant force in the world. One of Rotschilds said at that time
something like I don't care who is in power as long as I controll the
bank. He, who issues the money, has all the power over the rest, by
controlling interest rate and value of money.

One economist predicted WWII in year 1918, just after end of WWI. Greater ad
more devastating war will occure in less than 25 years if we don't radically
change current monetary system. And it happend in less than 25 years.
It's a flaw by design. It's like house made of playing cards. We can't make
this world better place to live while based on current economic foundations.
There will always be huge differences, rich and poor and struggle and
tensions based on national/religious and other excuses. But basically, it's
economic struggle.

I don't see bright future here. For many years I feel like I am living at
the end of Roman empire and just observing it's inevitable end. I hope I am

This, from a Canadian newspaper, is worth sharing.


America: The Good Neighbor.

Widespread but only partial news coverage was given recently to a
remarkable editorial broadcast from Toronto by Gordon Sinclair,
a Canadian television commentator.
What follows is the full text of his trenchant remarks as
printed in the Congressional Record:


This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the Americans as
the most generous and possibly the least appreciated people
on all the earth.
Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and Italy were
lifted out of the debris of war by the Americans who poured in
billions of dollars and forgave other billions in debts.
None of these countries is today paying even the interest
on its remaining debts to the United States.

When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956, it was the
Americans who propped it up, and their reward was to be insulted
and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it.

When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the United States
that hurries in to help. This spring, 59 American communities
were flattened by tornadoes. Nobody helped.

The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped billions of dollars
into discouraged countries. Now newspapers in those countries are
writing about the decadent, warmongering Americans.

I'd like to see just one of those countries that is gloating over
the erosion of the United States dollar build its own airplane.
Does any other country in the world have a plane to equal
the Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10?
If so, why don't they fly them?
Why do all the International lines except Russia fly American
Planes?

Why does no other land on earth even consider putting a man or
woman on the moon?
You talk about Japanese technocracy, and you get radios.
You talk about German technocracy, and you get automobiles.

You talk about American technocracy, and you find men on the
moon-not once, but several times-and safely home again.
You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs right
in the store window for everybody to look at.

Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. They are
here on our streets, and most of them, unless they are breaking
Canadian laws, are getting

need from rest of us.

It's not simply black and white world with good and bad guys. And I also
agree with Kevin's observations in his Perspective of events thread. Power
and strenght has been misused many times. Many people see USA as evil empire
which is responsible for world injustice and exploatation. But America
didn't invent current monetary and economic system. America is just taking
advatage of this system to it's fullest potential and this is called
bussiness. So many people don't think there is something wrong, because they
are just doing bussiness.

It's rooted in 18th century and was established by British empire while it
was dominant force in the world. One of Rotschilds said at that time
something like I don't care who is in power as long as I controll the
bank. He, who issues the money, has all the power over the rest, by
controlling interest rate and value of money.

One economist predicted WWII in year 1918, just after end of WWI. Greater ad
more devastating war will occure in less than 25 years if we don't radically
change current monetary system. And it happend in less than 25 years.
It's a flaw by design. It's like house made of playing cards. We can't make
this world better place to live while based on current economic foundations.
There will always be huge differences, rich and poor and struggle and
tensions based on national/religious and other excuses. But basically, it's
economic struggle.

I don't see bright future here. For many years I feel like I am living at
the end of Roman empire and just observing it's inevitable end. I hope I am
mistaken.

Does anyone know of a way to let regular users (non administrators) change
the Win2K IP addresses only?

Basically my laptop users travel to offices which do not all use DHCP hence
require manual IP change. I am able to use netsh to change the IP but this
requires admin rights which I do not want to do.

RE: ADSL query

2001-09-12 Thread Clark, Steve


What a timely conversation. I have IDSL from Wcom/ UUNet and found that they
were in no rush to help either. It's not a problem with the ISP - it is in
the relationship with the company bringing the line into the facility and
the phone companies. It's miserable when it's down as each of the companies
point the finger at each other and then jointly point at you - it's the IW
it's the CPE.

Total BS.

We are using ADSL in some of our stores here. They all have public IP's. The
one thing that you might want to consider, and it may be different with
worldcomm, is that most providers (especially ours) are still treating ADSL
like home connectivity and therefore are in no rush to fix problems.

ADSL has just been introduced in Ireland. I was in the process of installing
a leased line Internet connection with Worldcom, and discovered that ADSL
would be about 30% of the price. My one worry is IP address allocation. Does
anyone know if ADSL supports public Ips? IE, will my exchange server work?
Will my users be able to connect in via a VPN etc.?

Thanks,
Brian Judge.
