<0> does anyone know of a good program for software AP?
<1> nope
<1> i checked toms hardware, they say the zyxel x550 is good?
<0> yeah, i was tring to make do with what i have
<1> im looking for a high performance cheap router
<1> zyxel
<2> anyone know if it's legal to have multiple MX records with different priorities, with the same NAME
<2> ie MX 10 mail.bleh.com
<2> MX 20 mail.bleh.com
<2> MX 20 mail.foo.com
<3> I suppose it is legal, but it has no point
<2> yeah Im only concerned with legality at this point
<2> Im just trying to validate MX records
<3> yeah I'm pretty sure it won't break anything
<2> and cant seem to find an RFC that's explicit on it
<4> Legal or RFC-compliant?
<4> I don't think it breaks any rules. It is just plain dumb to do that.
<2> yeah I realize
<2> legal and rfc compliant should be the same thing
<4> The result of doing that or having just one MX is the same.
<2> yes I realize =)
<2> well
<2> it's slightly better than having just one mx
<2> because there's a 1 in 2 chance that if the primary mx fails
<2> you'll hit the secondary
<4> "Legal" refers to anything relating to the law. Nobody can sue you if you do that. :)
<2> I mean legal as far as the protocol
<4> I don't understand the point. If the first attempt fails, giving it a second immediate try (as per RFC) would be pointless, since it should also fail.
<4> Instead, it is suggested that two connection attempts are performed in the same hour, and then start delaying the retries.
<2> redondos: Im not arguing whether it's retarded or not
<4> But retry policy is not written in stone, different MTAs have different hardcoded values, or configurable defaults.
<2> I *know* it's retarded
<2> just whether it's legal =)
<4> k, then without being 100% sure I'd say it is.
<2> Im writing a frontend for a dns server
<2> to add/remove records
<2> the problem is, a lot of dns servers accept garbage
<2> that isnt legal
<4> You're going to validate this, and that's why you asked?
<2> so I want to make sure only goodness ends up in there =)
<4> Sounds good.
<2> all I can say is regular expressions are good
<2> do like 9/10ths of the validation for me
<4> Yeah... what language are you using?
<2> php
<4> k
<2> was contemplating using the opportunity to learn python
<2> but decided against it
<4> Why?
<2> php's more popular, and this thing is all mysql based and I know php's mysql support is pretty solid
<2> python is more of an unknown for me
<2> if I have problems it's easier to find php devs than python devs
<4> All right, maybe you just weren't up for learning a language writing a program with a deadline.
<2> yeah it's not a slant against python
<2> it's just an unknown that I dont need to deal with right now =)
<4> But the Python community is huge, really. They have extensive documentation, very active mailing lists, IRC channel, wiki...
<2> yeah, Im sure they do
<2> the PHP community is just bigger
<2> and we have one of the lead PHP developers on contract at work =)
<4> Yes, there are more PHP developers out in the wild.
<2> that and I already had some php code written that I could recycle
<4> That's always good.
<5> i'm looking to share a wired internet connection, through a wireless adhoc connection. i have 2 laptops. 1 has a wired LAN to the internet. from that laptop, i want to setup an adhoc wireless connection to another laptop, and share the LAN connection. i do have a pretty good background in network, and wireless, i just haven't done anything like this before. any suggestions/tutorials?
<1> hello
<6> any help?
<1> hi
<1> turns out the realtek 8651B chipset is the best
<7> Question; I just bought a router and linked up both my computer to it, and the modem to the uplink input of the router, still the internet is not working on one of the computers?
<7> anyone that know why?
<7> any help would be appriciated.
<8> [snowe] oh hells bells
<9> Hi.
<9> I have a question: when MPLS in a LAN is implemented, switches must acaptar VLANs, and if it is thus, so that? Thanks.
<9> (aceptar-->accept)
<10> thats something ISPs paly with, I think
<10> none of my customers use it
<11> hello
<11> I'm on a lan, and that's the source of my internet connection
<11> if i'm on an http page not https, any router logger or protocol analyzer can view the pages i'm visiting
<11> he even can see this chat, right?, if that
<11> is so, how to encrypt it?
<11> hello any one here?
<10> not so easy to view what you view - someone can see and open the packets, yes, but putting it all together isnt simple
<11> yes you're right
<10> what are you doing that you need to hide?
<11> open my e-mail
<11> the page of my yahoo e-mail is not encrypted
<10> they can intercept and store all your email - coming and going out
<10> and its legal for them to
<11> no i don't mean stmp or pop e-mail
<11> i'm on yahoo mail
<11> it's https only for the p***word but not when viewing the e-mail
<11> i think
<11> right?
<10> dunno
<11> when i opened my e-mail the browser gave me a warning that i'm leaving secure connection, and any one can view info easily
<11> https://login.yahoo.com/config/login_verify2?&.src=ym the login is https, that means i hope that my username and p***word are encrypted in the packets, right
<11> after entering the username and p***word, and entering the e-mail, i'm told that "i'm about to leave a secure internet connection. it will be possible for otheres to view information you send. Do you want to continue"
<11> that's the problem the packets of my pages in the e-mail are sent to me unencrypted, doesn't that mean danger?
<11> hello?
<4> yuuka: In theory, they won't be able to see the p***word but they are able to intercept the html pages your browser downloads when you're reading mail, yes.
<11> redondos: thanks, now you've put your hands on the problem, you know any solution, beside i think even the isp can do this, a lot of people can see my packages, wow
<4> yuuka: Well, if the server that stores your mail (yahoo) doesn't let you fetch it using a secure protocol, then no matter what you do, there will always be a point in which the messages are transferred in plaintext.
<4> yuuka: A proper solution to this problem is using SSL/TLS to fetch and send all of your mail.
<4> I don't know if yahoo supports that, and if it is free. Some free services such as Gmail provide you with encrypted pop3/submission.
<11> redondos: thanks you're really helping me, what about a chat like this or msn messenger or yahoo messenger, isn't it transferred too in a plain text, how to overcome this
<4> Anyway, even when you receive a message using a secure protocol, your mail server probably just received it in plain.
<11> oh, good point
<4> Most IRC servers support SSL, EFNet servers usually don't.
<4> MSN Messenger, no encryption. There are third party add-ons for increasing the security, such as Simp.
<11> thanks for the infomration, you are so helpful

<11> hello, if i have the internet connection through lan 192.168.1 and have another lan on 192.168.0, is there another method to share the internet to my lan than ms ics?
<11> and also i want to enable sharing on the 192.168.0 lan and not 192.168.1, how can i do this
<12> no
<12> you'd need a router
<12> as their NETWORK ID is not the same
<12> 192.168.0
<12> 192.168.1
<11> k, what about the second point?
<11> beside can't i make my windows a router?
<12> you can bridge
<11> meaning to make both 192.168.1?, i don't want to do that
