Is pop_me_up2 defined somewhere?  Did you pull it from a web page where
it is defined?  (or is it a built-in function?)

Lorraine,

I have some experience at this and will be willing to donate some 
of my time towards it.  Please contact me directly instead of 
replying to the list.  

To the rest of the list:  I'm willing to be the technical lead on 
this.  If anyone wants to learn  help, let's talk off-list.

 Hi there,
 New list member.
 I am wanting to gets Macs running Linux to distribute (I have
 found homes for Macs and some PCs in Oregon, California,
 Washington and Guatemala, and soon will be sending 100+
 computers to Ecuador). I would like to load Linux on these
 machines, but have no understanding of the process and find my
 research on the web frustratingly confusing.
 I am looking for someone to help me out and for others to
 follow through with the installation processes. Anyone in
 Euglug know about Macs and Linux and can teach me? I have two
 volunteers who are interested in this project also, both of
 which are more software savvy than I and can be part of the
 process. I have both ppcs and 040 machines to work with. Thanks

Today:  I'd doubt it.

By 2006:  I'd hope so!

cheers and good luck,

PS - sorry I have no specific experience with equation-editing in OO,
although most things that are very specific functionalities in Word
still require Word.  rattin-frattin-ding-dong...

[eug-lug]webserver logs...

2003-11-20 Thread Linux Rocks !
so... ive noticed this before in my webserver logs...
68.50.124.251 - - [20/Nov/2003:23:07:12 -0500] GET /scripts/..%%35c../winnt/
system32/cmd.exe?/c+dir HTTP/1.0 400 292

so... looks like someone it scanning for a winnt based server they can exploit 
to me.. anyway, obviously its not an acutal problem, but I figured maybe some 
of you have had simular issues, and come up with creative solutions... like 
with ip tables or something :)

There are a number of high quality equation editors available for 
linux/unix
including one that comes as a part of Mozilla

But if the course requirements say MS Word, then that's what you are 
stuck with.

Re: [eug-lug]webserver logs... (right on)

2003-11-20 Thread Ben Barrett
Anyone with an open port 80 on a static IP is likely to see loads of
this crap.  Yep, they're looking for an exploitable 'doze box.
I usually just ignore it... you can run host or dig on the IP if you're
curious as to the origination; you could even feed the GET into your
webserver to see exactly what error they got; but I have yet to see any
cool creative soluions for this.  It strikes me as a waste of resources
to firewall the IP, since it is a silly request, but I think it would be
interesting to hack up a tarpit for them -- like giving them something
that looks like a command shell, to entice them -- in that case, one
would also want to modify the system signature that they might get from
nmap, etc... anyone else got some good notions on this?
Of note is that you might see multiple requests from the same IP, or
from another in the same block.  This tells you something about the
nature of the attacker, but not a whole lot.  Most I've seen come from
overseas or dialups...  g'nitey!

hmmm... interesting.. I like this idea... might be fun :) it got me thinking 
of what to send them... I was thinking a file full of 1's in a self 
extracting exe would be fun. If their program executes this file to test it, 
what might happen if it extracts a file of ohh say a few terrabytes of 1's ? 
how small will a compressed file of 1's be ?

I suppose i could be really malicious and send them a trojan... 

or possibly theres something even more horrific that others might suggest?
