Entropy on virtual machines There are also some signatures that require random data, such as DSA. The simplistic answer that it is only for generating keys is wrong. |

Are IP addresses “trivial to forge”? Gaining access is not the primary goal for many attacks using spoofed addresses. I suspect the various amplification attacks using DNS is more frequent. DNS is lovely (with DNSSEC worse) -- you can send a small, < 100 byte packet with a spoofed source address will cause the spoofed address to receive a 7x to 40x amplification as a reply. |

Failed to enable the 'dataready' Accept Filter I recommend not using the accept filtering in FreeBSD at this time. |

BIND/RNDC - Why do my subzones work and my actual zone doesn't? Did this actually work? @ should be automatically defined to be the zone being loaded, so the $ORIGIN line should have no effect as it simply sets it again. |

Need ideas for a cost effective, green (and small) Sql Server hardware build SSDs work fine for databases. Any database that assumes a physical drive with rotational delay would be wrong about any in-memory caching done by the OS, RAID controller, or even on the drives. Or with RAID, any number of drives would throw it off. Sorry, I don't buy that databases expect this sort of thing anymore. Gone are the IBM days... |
