    Major Linux Security Hole Gapes Open

    The title is very misleading. "A major security hole in Linux has been discovered". I looked at this in more detail, adding to what Frobozz said, this looks like a specific distribution issue. Testing several non Debian/Ubuntu distributions using the 2.6 kernel they were not vulnerable.

    Cloud Computing: Let's kick this off

    I am not trying to be an ass and not trolling. I am honestly curious why you, mikeblas, are excited to work for Oracle? I know every company has its bad press and hatred, such as EA in the gaming world. However, for the last 19 years I have had to deal with Oracle the company and I can not...

    Why does Linus Torvalds say Java is a horrible programming language?

    The Age of Apple is Over

    Hardware for home server

    Steve Ballmer Does An About-Face On Linux

    I can't see why Balmer's input matters any more, or has ever for matter. I use (forced to) MS products on a daily basis at work and they all give me headaches. I feel the same way toward Balmer; he gave me headaches with his asinine antics and hypocritical speeches. Now he is back-peddling...

    Linux-Powered Botnet Generates Giant DDoS Attacks

    Thanks to irresponsible people not patching the applications running on their Linux machines. Or, thanks to the people who use embedded Linux on their products who never patch them for vulnerabilities.

    Requesting help to identify this server case.

    If you could take pictures that would be appreciated. I would love to find one of these cases to do a mod with. I just need to know the manufacturer or a model number so I can actually start shopping or ebaying to find one. :D

    Requesting help to identify this server case.

    Thanks, Rusty! I am still looking for pictures and such and I do remember there being a white version of this. I keep thinking it is an Antec case but I can't find it on any Google search results. :(

    Requesting help to identify this server case.

    I am trying to find the model/name/manufacturer for the case in the pictures below. I bought one like it in 1998 or 1999. These are the only pictures I could find. Sorry for the poor quality.
