...############################## Is the error message above suggesting I should specify a chinese locale and not UTF-8? I thought UTF-8 would actually handle chinese and anything else one could throw at it as long as it''s a human language. Any help is appreciated. -- Julio C. Ody http://rootshell.be/~julioody

hi list, i'm currently working on audit for some servers that also act as proxy using ssh tunnel feature and i noticed that tunnel connections don't log very much information. googling i've found an old patch from rootshell[1] which seems to work for latest release. do you think this can be merged to mainstream release? thanks [1] http://blog.rootshell.be/2009/03/01/keep-an-eye-on-ssh-forwarding/ sz -- /"\ taste your favourite IT consultant \ / gpg: http://www.guly.org/guly.asc X / \

Question, there are the teardrop, ping of death, DoS and a host of other forms of attacks. While all of the research that I have been doing concerning another form of an attack.... I became sorta stumped on an idea... is there anywhere.... a description on what to expect or what happenes during any one of these or other attacks listed somewhere? If so, could someone please direct me in that

Hi All, As some of you may have noticed, the Ferret Wiki has been getting spammed like crazy. And I haven''t been able to do anything about it because I just don''t have the time. I''m getting pretty close to releasing 0.10.0 which has been the major draw on my time for the last couple of months so I''m going to have some time to look into this soon. I was

My problem is with non latin characters (Persian indeed). I have tested different locales with no success both on Debian and Mac. Any idea?

The only other choice I have here is actually fetching all the JS output, and writing it all in the view, changing the target for the Prototype functions. But that sounds cranky to me.

In switching to openssh from ssh-1.2.27, I have encountered the following problem with the way openssh handles its XAUTHORITY files separately from ~/.Xauthority. XEmacs has a gnuserv process that runs and allows commands to be issued to a remote XEmacs process. The trouble is when the command is to make a new frame ( window ) on a different X display, it fails because the Xauth cookie is not in

Hi, Does anyone know how I can find out if an ibm serveraid 8k sas storage controller (zero channel RAID) is a real hardware RAID controller and supported in the standard CentOs kernel or is it a fake raid controller.
