To read about stuxnet was most fascinating, too bad i don't know which link
that was.
Even the way it spread was engineered down to the T.
About locking down machines, it's fairly easy though to control access to
apps on a machine with linux at its base.

EMC2 is very capable of controlling a 5-axis mill.
I was rather impressed by this demonstration of it:

(At the half-way point you get to see the whole machine, it is worth the wait)
Most impressive video, amazes me every time.
Numbered pots with a lookup table of which pot number currently is holding
which tool number is majorly useful.
If there are tools in the pots, but the machinist does not know which tool
number they are, he can get the pot number, look up the tool number and get
it in MDI.
This is all too common
For tool measurements off the taper of the holder, for cat 40 and cat 50 at
least it should be easy to even purchase blocks to use on the surface plate
with a height gage. Every place I worked at had some, so I never had to
source out.
If this is available for your tool holders it provides nice
Would they sell this bare bones?
Since it wouldn't make much sense to pay for the control and then not use it.
If they want a sell, ask if they can sell it with a Simodrive 611U
instead of 611D, the 611U would take analog inputs and then emc2 would
have no issues making this work with mesa cards.

How far does this reverse before going to new depth?

Jon is right, we were asking about areas, not simple Z and X planes.

Where it get's tricky is programming to avoid the tailstock when a

We would like to define where chuck and tail stock are and keep the machine

Like an extended soft limit.
Possible difficulties I see in this is that often we get the turret within

Wonder if this means vga actually does win over dvi in this use case.

Do you have the CAD program too? To help your CAM package with tangent arcs
to eliminate the unreachable corners.
The easier way would be to tell your CAM package to compensate for tool
diameter, it would create a tool path at the center of the tool, always
keeping the tool tangent to the feature
If you have a CAM program, you can adjust its post processor one time
to output the code.
To change the gcode interpreter (aka switching machines) w/o making
adjustments to the post processor is obviously asking for trouble.
A thread table in a CAM package is only as good as the post processor
These questions come up every now and then, for more answers search the
archive or check the wiki at http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Cam
We might update the wiki with all the CAM's known to work with EMC2?
Would be interesting if post processors adjusted for emc2 could be
