Munich Goes Linux After All
Saturday, 14 August 2004
Whatever the reasons for the delay, Munich mayor Christian Ude recently emphasized in a press conference that the city is committed to open source, and anticipates it will follow through with the migration as planned. Munich announced that patent concerns will not affect a planned migration to Linux for 14,000 of the city's desktop computers. Although the city had unveiled a plan last year for the move, on August 4 it decided to postpone the program, nicknamed LiMux, citing legal and financial concerns over software patents that it wanted to clarify before proceeding.

Trick: Securing PHP
Friday, 13 August 2004
PHP is a popular scripting language used to create dynamic Web sites on millions of servers worldwide. Serving dynamic pages means giving users access to commands, files, and network connections on the server, opening up many potential security risks. We can reduce these risks significantly by correctly configuring the server, but programmers should also be responsible for making sure their scripts are secure.In a previous article we looked at installing

An Alternative to Windows
Friday, 13 August 2004
Will it always be a Microsoft Windows world? That’s what I hoped to find out when I sliced open the box containing the new PC I’d ordered from WalMart.com. It had a respectable 1.6-gigahertz processor, a serviceable 40-gigabyte hard drive, a CD-ROM drive, an MP3 player, and enough other software to keep me occupied for life, though supporting it all was a barely adequate 128 megabytes of RAM. Okay, I knew this chunky black box wouldn’t be the sexiest PC on my block. But that was fine, considering its paltry $278 price tag—and that I’d really ordered it for what it didn’t have: any Microsoft software whatsoever. Rather than Windows and Office, it came with Linspire 4.5, one of the many commercial versions of the open-source Linux operating system that are now available, and a link to a website where I could download a variety of open-source applications.

Trick: Automating the spamlist.org Blacklist
Thursday, 12 August 2004

As I become increasingly frustrated with the amount of spam I receive via the Deer Run mail servers, I start reaching for ever more draconian tools for blocking spam. One of the more useful blacklists that I've found on the Internet is the one at www.spamlist.org. However, the maintainers of the list (probably in an effort not to get sued by the spammers) go out of their way not to provide the list in a form that can be automatically incorporated into your mail server configuration. So, in this article, I will share a few simple tools I've created for automatically using this list on my own personal mail servers.

Distribution Release: INSERT 1.2.14
Monday, 09 August 2004
INSERT (the Inside Security Rescue Toolkit) aims to be a multi-functional, multi-purpose disaster recovery and network analysis system. It boots from a credit card-sized CD-ROM and is basically a stripped-down version of Knoppix. It features good hardware detection, fluxbox, emelfm, links-hacked, ssh, tcpdump, nmap, chntpwd, and much more. It provides full read-write support for NTFS partitions (using captive), and the ClamAV virus scanner (including a fairly recent signature database and a GUI). It also has a network boot facility.
