• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Cop to Parents: Steal Facebook Passwords From Your Kids

    This is key. I don't mean my guidelines to apply until they're 18+, but I think it's fair to run these rules until 12 or 13. After that they're aware enough to know right from wrong, and you can ease up on the boundaries. If they start screwing around, then you lock down again for a little...

    Cop to Parents: Steal Facebook Passwords From Your Kids

    If my 9-year-old can use Tor, I'd be mightily impressed. Besides, how can they Tor without Admin privs? More importantly, how can Tor circumvent unchangeable DNS settings? What's important: I'm not talking about locking out some 16-year-old. I think that there comes a point in the teenage...

    Cop to Parents: Steal Facebook Passwords From Your Kids

    Oh I don't doubt it, but it'll be locked down tighter than a drum under my roof from day 1. It's not so much spying or controlling or what-have-you. Nothing's stopping those rules from being bent from time to time (You got an A on your homework and this weekend looks like absolutely miserable...

    Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" Is Out

    Alright, I just deployed 9.10 to my workstation (upgrade from 9.04), and on my Asus EEE PC 900a (fresh format). Pros: (EEE PC): Much better boot times! I'm not sure if this is due to Upstart or ext4, but I've gone from 90 seconds to 40 seconds from power-on to login screen. (EEE PC)...

    50% of Businesses Will Deploy Windows 7 First Year, Survey

    Sysadmin for 250 users. Not rolling out. Mostly because we have lots of PC hardware that doesn't technically meet the requirements, and we're running on an NT4 domain. (Upgrading that to 2008 has a higher rank on the food chain right now).

    Win2k NAS Denying Group_Local Permissions, but not Group_Global

    Ok. I'm retarded. I got my "Local Domain" and "Local Computer" locals confused. The Local_Groups on the NT boxes are replicating via their local SAMs, and are NOT shown on the entire domain, hence why our new NAS box can't see the permissions - the SAM doesn't replicate to member servers. The...

    Win2k NAS Denying Group_Local Permissions, but not Group_Global

    I'm running a NT Domain here on Windows NT 4. We just set up a new NAS box with 2000, and did an "xcopy /c/h/e/r/k/y/o/x" from the old NT box to the new 2000 box. I then copied the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ControlSet001/LanManServer/Shares" key from the NT box to the 2000 box. All the shares are now...
