Well, to set things straight: It ain't my network. My server is located
there; so it's my ISP to blame really. I have pointed out that they
should install a firewall, as they have none.

Yup, that right: they have no protection whatsoever.

I think I'll let them hire me!

btw: They're smurfing and fraggling us (trem).

Greetings,
Rogier Maas

Et tu, Brent?

What's the difference between Linux and UNIX?

        (The following is my best understanding of the topic, but may not
be entirely correct)
        Unix is a trademark, originally owned by AT&T, for it's operating
system.  (I believe that trademark has been transferred to The Open
Group.)
        Linux is an operating system that was written without any of the
original AT&T Unix source code.  It looks and acts like Unix (it
generally follows the relevant POSIX standards), but does not
have the right to use that trademark.
        Cheers,
        - Bill
