The reason India does not have any worthwhile product companies is that all the people I find here are too scared of doing great things; they are constantly slavishly following the environment or trying to play safe. This does not work. No it does not. By not being globally competitive and by fearing to speak the truth and live by the truth you don't get very far. Of course you avoid some immediate inconveniences but in the long run you live somebody else's life and die a loser. It is much better to die in the battle of living by one's values than to simply play second fiddle. I don't think it is easy to change. K7 took 17 years to establish itself as a product brand, and even today they are not the world's best. Zoho and Vembu and few others are almost there but even they aren't top brands. Only developed nations seem to produce product brands. But I dunno a single Japanese brand in IT wo</pre> Girish Venkatachalam 2012-05-22T02:50:56 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.org.user-groups.linux.ilugc/75572 <pre>Wanted: Linux Admin 2 years experience in handling Postfix /zimbra mail, Web, Samba and Proxy server.

Even if you are developing a user interface for making your product user friendly the main backend operation is file editing. So I have done quite a bit of this since the general mime for my product is web panel for configuration and statistics and all the backend file manipulations are performed by user input in the web panel. Editing a file can be done in many languages, even C. But who will write a C CGI? I use perl and use it extensively. And you can directly edit a file using perl CGI. But I did something better. I use Tie::File which is a standard perl module for manipulating files. Basically it ties the file into a perl array using which you can remove lines, add lines or edit lines using the same perl functions you use for array elements. This does not make things really simple but I live with it. I don't think there is a better way. How do you do it?

I was surprised to find that there is an elective paper titled "Ethical Hacking &amp; Forensics" and that the recommended book is by Ankit Fadia. I think this says a lot about the quality of the course itself.. http://cs.annauniv.edu/academic/mecse2009.html Ankit Fadia related links: http://attrition.org/errata/charlatan/ankit_fadia/ http://attrition.org/errata/charlatan/ankit_fadia/fadia10.html The term "Ethical Hacking" is IMO not a good term : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_definition_controversy Note: I'm CC-ing Dr. K.

Not as replies or ACK packets to outbound traffic but hosting local apps which can be accessed from the outside world. I dunno a single Indian company that is doing web hosting or any hosting of applications with success. There is a big player called Ctrl-S in Hyderabad but according to me they are not a technical outfit just like any other Indian company. Started by people who are more business focused than technically motivated the company does not seem to be making big inroads in local data centers and stuff. Even if you take God forsaken Reliance, Airtel, Tata or our own Sarkai BSNL, they all suffer from technical incompetence in equal measure. Anyway let us leave aside big boys that host websites, cloud and applications with real public IP and stuff.

Thanks to a free Hurricane DNS service. http://dyn.he.net All you have to do is purchase a domain either from a typical low quality Indian player like net4india or anyone say register.com, and remove all the NS type records. You only need to have the NS pointed to ns1.he.net. And then you have to go ahead and add the domains and the IP address using the DNS A record. If you have dynamic DNS, then you have to generate a key. Once you have that whenever you send a HTTP request in the form, http://domain:key-U72Z3M8gumY5etPau2IXcQ&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org/nic/update?hostname=domain then the IP is automatically gleaned from the packet header and updated in the database. Obviously this update program should run in the machine which is behind the dynamic IP. Now, anywhere in the world you can reach the dynamic IP using the domain name you pointed to. Plain and simple. In other words, your dynamic IP now has features of static IP for all practical p</pre> Girish Venkatachalam 2012-05-19T15:33:11 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.org.user-groups.linux.ilugc/75536 <pre>Hi All....

It is easy to block by tcp or udp port numbers, block all ping packets(wrong), and you could block all packets with TOS byte fields of TCP flags corresponding to a SYN packet. But all that is only good for very basic firewalling. Not very useful in the real world. In the real world we want to block instant messaging, inspect https, look at p2p traffic and not just block but allocate bandwidth fairly and so on. These things require real engineering. The soft of things a networking engineer is supposed to do. QoS is nothing but traffic shaping or rate limiting of packets leaving our network. We can easily control that but what about packets coming to us? Nothing much we can do there. But with QoS we can get fairly good results in controlling network abuse. What if there is a buffer overflow attack or router worms? A firewall should be able to deal with such thi</pre> Girish Venkatachalam 2012-05-18T15:40:43 Search the mailing list at Gmane query http://search.gmane.org/?group=$group=gmane.org.user-groups.linux.ilugc
