i'm in missouri, not washington, and i tried several times to get the phone company to believe there was a problem with the line, but they wouldn't, so they got the boot. and even if you do get good reliable uptimes most of the time, i think $40 a month for a crappy 180KB/s max line is a waste of ...

dsl is trash in my opinion, i first got dsl and was maxing out at 40KB/s, and the line quality was horrible, everytime it rained i would lose service, and the phone company refused to believe it was a problem with their line, so i ditched them and got @home, now i max out at 600KB/s

i doubt it, it looks like thats a request to get a netbios name table for your ip, and even if someone did spoof it they wouldn't be very smart because in order to get the info back to the person it needs their destination ip, which if spoofed won't ever reach them. it's probably some internal ...

tomb raider stunk, the sets weren't believable at all, and her "look at me, i'm tough ****" attitude was annoying

the guy who runs grc is a primadonna who thinks putting dramatic comments in bold colored in huge font makes his story great, well sorry pal, but it doesn't, and XP won't change a thing.

bleach

it's completely fine if he sets up an ftp server to share files on his internal network, the traffic doesn't go through the isps network, so it doesn't involve them

bleach

just because netbios is loaded does not mean file sharing is on, windows by default enables netbios, and without filesharing its not a problem, and if you've updated your windows setup lately and use passwords on your shares it still isn't a problem

bleach

they're all the same more or less, you just pay an extra $50 when you buy a 3com for the name. of course everyone would rather buy a fancy 3com nic instead of a cheapie but it doesnt really matter, i'm using 2 smc ez nics in my network that were only $14 each and have had no problems with them at all

bleach

agreed, stop bitching about a measly $6 increase per month

options -> connect -> identd

bleach

the surfboard 3000 runs several services, 513/tcp rloging, 69/udp tftp, and 161/udp snmp

bleach

you sure you have the http proxy configured on both the client and server machines?

bleach

if someones trying to connect to you on 6667 that's not a hacking attempt, the person might think you're running ircd, and it certainly won't reset your modem configuration

bleach

another note, make sure you are running the very latest version of bind because there are several bugs in previous versions that can allow people to remotely gain access to your system

bleach

most linux distro's contain bind, the most popular dns daemon, should be in /usr/sbin/named i think, if not just do "locate named" and it's pretty much ready to work out of the box, unless you want to control domains, then i'd suggest brushing up on the man files or buying a big fat book

bleach

if 1.5 megabytes isnt possible on cable, why would you think he was saying he was downloading in bytes?

bleach

pasv mode won't work with ftps behind routers because when you send the pasv command the box running the ftp server sends it's internal ip address which is no good, you can however set certain ports to use ftp servers which the router will automaticly look at the packets and replace the ip ...

what the hell are you talking about?

bleach

according to du meter i've transfered 24.5 gigs in 11 days, 8 gigs a month should be considered a crime against humanity

bleach

i've seen everything that comes along with the linksys and other routers, and the speedstream is missing nothing.

bleach

nope, that's why i just attatched a cheapie 4 port hub to it's one port, and i found the features that came with the speedstream just as good as other routers, if not better

bleach

why dump $150 on a router when you can get it for free?

bleach

depending on what model you have, you can apply a special firmware upgrade to the dsl modem and turn it into a router, so you can unload all that pppoe bloatware off your system

bleach

napster isn't going anywhere, screw napster.com and their pay services, there are open nap servers out there that have almost double the users and files to download and you can use napigator to connect to them using the napster client

bleach

use ftp.newaol.com/aol to test your speeds, none of you will ever be able to max out that line

bleach

i don't know if this is already a known fact or not, but i was in the bathroom the other day and needed something boring to read so i quickly grabbed all the booklets that @home left me when they came and started reading them, and in the back of their activation guide there's a couple pages on ...

bleach

try using the -h <@home host> flag with dhcpcd in linux, that's the only way i can get dhcp working in slack

bleach

it doesn't matter for me, my workgroup isn't @home and my computer name isn't the C452952-A crap either

bleach

have you tried running netconfig?

bleach

just setup NAPT on the router to redir the pc anywhere port to the server behind the router that's running it, you can do that via the web interface in the advanced settings

bleach

try using vnc, it's free and probably less bloated than pc anywhere, i don't remember the exact url, just search at google for vnc + download and you should get it on the first link

bleach

that's great.

bleach

mirc is an irc client, not a server, the speed has nothing to do with mirc, and long live the vcd community.

bleach

a couple years ago i had @home and after i got it setup in slackware i was able to upload at 100 KB/s as opposed to the 40K i was getting in windows, it didn't effect my downstream much though. i'm guessing linux is faster in some cases because windows is a bloated peice of garbage when it comes to ...

bleach

napster is long from dead, maybe the public napster.com servers will go down, but there are still other napster networks like opennap and musiccity, all you need is a program like napigator and you can select which network you get on, there's also more people on these networks than there were on ...
