What information are you looking for? It seems that your question was answered. Are you looking for info on how to use NSLOOKUP?

Here's a MS KB article:

BES1st.....Thanks ! and yah, I have that pic. April 2008......just after my husband died I went to the climbers reunion in Joshua Tree with my daughter Amy. Remet JB there ...... the beginning of a nice friendship. John, along with others in the climbing community, helped me deal with processing grief. lynnie

Copy the tarballs into your home and half of this BS is avoided making the only privileged code to execute the `make install` as it writes to the system directories. something like this


cd ~
mkdir BUILDS; cd BUILDS
cp /mnt/medie/wireless-compat.tar.gz .
tar -xvzf wireless-compat.tar.gz
cd wireless-compat
./configure --with-desired-options
make
su
make install


That really should work for you without all this rando chown'ing of files just to get around directory perms....

Hey BES

I'm happy to help you a bit. I used to port drivers from Linux to OpenBSD systems and I also used to write a driver here and there as well. You are def correct that there are chipsets that do not have working drivers. Sometimes the changes to existing drivers are as minimal as adding a #define and test for the chipset name (assuming it is a clone) and sometimes as dificult as getting a white paper for the chipset or *gack* reverse engineering one (NEVER FUN!).

Drivers in Linux are a special beast in that they are acutally parts of (or additions to) the kernel. All interface between the metal and the system must take place at a relatively low level in order for latency and inner-kernel communication to occur. When a person builds a custom kernel they specify various drivers and components to be built staticly into the kernel itself or built and loaded on demand as modules (man lsmod, insmod, rmmod). During the build process no elevated privilege is required. It is the writing/copying of the binary object files into the kernels module directories that require privilege.

As a sysadmin for over 12 years (uggggg :-\ ) I can tell you that figuring out how to do as much as possible as a regular user and only using su and sudo when needed can save you a lot of re-installing and headaches while you conquer the learning curve.

Anyway man email me and we can maybe talk a bit on IM and work through whatever problem you are having and it will probably be much easier than doing this on the taco.

Good luck! UNIX/*NIX really is worth it.

Peace,
Roman

well, to start with, your LAN.. 192.168.x.x is not going to propogate to the DNS servers. You have to registar a domain name (Godaddy.com, TZO.com, whatever) with the ip address coming into you access point... e.g. cable, dsl... whatever. as far as the DNS's are concerned, you don't exist. nslookup uses domain name servers to resolve ip addresses into domain names, so if it doesn't know anything about your (SERVER????) then don't expect domain name resolution on windows or linux on any other OS.

IT ain't gonna happen.

Step 1:Use default trash can for all windows hardware.

Step 2: Go to Mac store.

simple.

a new iMac with two terrabytes of storage,
no clutter,
a 3 minute set up time from box to operational (I know you poor windows people don't believe me)
with movie editing, and i life
no issues with dreaded software invasion from the web
and no anti virus expense
for about 1500 bucks... are you kidding?

oh and by the way, they don't frreeeeeze crash or otherwise screw up 10% as often as a PC.

Throw the windows away, throw the whole computer away. it's slow
and it is from 1974.

Isn't "windows programmers" an oxymoron....
That system should have never been allowed to develop ( Kill the evil seed, demon child).....Go Apple...Go Unix.... go Red Hat....Shite go fortran or even Cobalt but Phuck the marketing Genius that stuffed his Kock down everyone's throat for 25 years....He can't donate his way out of hell and I can't wait to meet him there. But I'm Knott bitter.
The pieces of shite that retired early and made huge amounts of $ off an extremely, faulty operating system, that was forced upon us because of marketing ....Makes the Biblical story of Sodom and Gomorra look tame.

Thanks BES1'st,

July 5 will mark the first anniversary of John's death. Many of us miss him ..... mucho. Blessings to you for pulling up a picture of the stellar dude. John was a combination and dichotomy of an incredible human that was hardcore climber and friend, but helped people too. No way to put a label on him, just appreciate what he did well and forgive the rest. lynnie

I usually avoid clicking most of the OT stuff on here and various conspiracy theories/hippie mumbo jumbo threads. But, couldn't sleep and was just surfing trying to get tired, and gave in and clicked this.

Biggest mistake ever. I can't believe the amount of computer literacy in WBraun's posts. WTF! Yosemite hardmen/guys that free solo with boom boxes aren't supposed to know about computers. They're supposed to know about fingerjams, pitons, high top climbing shoes, hip belays, and insulting terms for sport climbers. Image semi-ruined.

(In case not obvious...joking, but as a person who sells out 8+ hours a day playing with the glowing screen for a living, there's comfort in thinking there are people out there that know little to nothing of these things. If I see Peter Croft come on here and tell someone how to create a new swap partition or setup raid5, I may have to quit climbing.)

Get a Mac!

My Mac has been running continuously for almost 30 years without a reboot. Match that with a Micropenis product!

They never have problems. and when they do it the fault of 'Windoz'.

I really can't tell what is more odd. The nature of this dude who is trolling or the fact that there are this many *NIX literate and apparently even C programming literate ppl on supertopo.....

I guess similar ppl like similar things. (In reference to that fact that I know both C and UNIX very well).

Has anybody been able to download the NetBeans or the above
listed without connection interference from edgesuite?

No. Edgesuite is a tool used by a large number of sites to manage or mirror content. Why is it a problem if edgesuite is accessed when you download netbeans?

Internet "documentation" does show that the FBI uses edgesuite to somehow manage or mirror their website(s). It is not clear if edgesuite is turning over non-FBI related traffic information to the FBI since that would be FBI-confidential or secret information. It does not seem at all reasonable to think that the FBI are monitoring netbeans downloads in order to track your activities on the internet. They would be much better served by using a packet sniffer although the using of Kinkos wifi must be your way of reducing the probability of this situation. Was that Kinkos you mentioned a while back? I find that restarting my DSL modem is a good way to give me a new IP address when needed although my IP address does show up as part of the same IP address chunk that is allotted to my ISP. Still, my location shows as being 30 miles away based on my IP address so I should be safe.

I guess I am not adept at avoiding FBI surveillance although I think the FBI would be better off getting a court order and sticking a bug in my physical location instead of trying a bunch of web hacks to get at me, if I were a person of concern in the first place.
