RE: KDE DPMS problem

2007-02-15 Thread James Weatherall
Hi Ian, KDE shouldn't be assuming the presence of DPMS support in the X server. In this instance, Xvnc doesn't provide DPMS support because it has no physical monitor to power-save, so it shouldn't (and doesn't) provide the DPMS extension. It sounds like you'll need to contact the KDE

After the exploit was discussed and the recommendation was made to install the updated code, I went to every box and downloaded the free edition to each machine. I don't have the version number in front of me but this was a couple of months ago. There was subsequent discussion on the list as

Yes, I do. It's the sysadmin who allows everyday users to run with admin rights, and has cmd.exe enabled for such users! From a safe box run on the infected computers run something like: netsh interface ip show tcpconn Ditto but for udpconn. Check each and every suspect IP address shown.
