<0> prometheus_: was the boss aware of the termination? had to be
<0> ohhhhhhh
<1> siglite: yeah, he found out maybe 20 minutes before he got the request to delete the folder
<0> oh
<0> hahah, man
<0> his integrity around there is shot.
<0> his days are numbered.
<1> h.r. kept screaming "don't tell ben, don't tell ben" and at one point asked me "if we ask you to remove ben's access, can you do it?"
<1> ben, being my boss, the director of everything i.t.
<0> hahah
<1> siglite: i don't think so, if $pres was gonna can him it would've been today
<0> and your answer was "yes, with a team of eight guys and four hours notice"
<1> siglite: 10 minutes, perhaps. they had me go as far as develop a written plan and play through it a few times, just to be prepared
<0> wow
<0> he's probably still around just so they're not fending off two lawsuits.
<1> fortunately, everything but a few systems use either openldap or active directory, so it's not too bad
<1> siglite: heh, could be
<1> siglite: i tell you though, i've never felt ****ty like i have the last few days... waiting for 'em to call and tell me to take away all my boss's access
<0> prometheus_: yeah
<2> m00
<0> prometheus_: dude, when they canned my boss, I wound up helping him pack his ****.
<0> prometheus_: that ****ed
<1> "You are a great guy Jeremy. Please don't feel bad at all about what you did - you didn't do anything against me, you were doing your job and following orders. I definitely don't hold anything against you at all for what happened(no matter what happens in the end). You did the right thing. IT security isn't about loyalty."
<0> I rather liked him.
<1> that's from my boss
<2> When they canned my boss, I didn't find out until two days later.
<1> siglite: ****, i can imagine
<0> in fact, I think I was in here bitching about how being the security guy can **** sometimes, because you have advance notice of ****cannings.
<0> I had to sit on that one for two ****ing days too
<1> siglite: yeah, i can attest to that
<1> siglite: yeah, they told me at like 4:45pm on friday, so i had all weekend to think about it
<1> didn't help that we were having dinner with $boss and his wife saturday night
<2> Ouch.
<0> I had to have meetings with my boss and **** sitting on that knowledge
<0> lol, yeah, that ****S
<0> you feel like *such* a ****
<3> siglite, my old place of work is so ****ed up these days, everyone is leaving (bwhahaha)
<0> dogbert2: nothing beats leaving a place, then hearing that thier spinning down the tubes. It's a guilty pleasure.
<0> s/thier/they're/
<1> oh, and *NOW* they want to listen to me talk about putting some more policies in place... they didn't wanna listen before.
<3> ayup...it sure is :)
<0> hahah
<3> prometheus...that's why I left, no one wanted to listen to me about how to do **** right...oh well :)
<0> sometimes my bosses hate my candor.
<0> sometimes they love knowing that they're getting a straight answer from me every time.
<0> but man...
<0> we had "the bobs" in
<0> this efficiency consultant
<0> we call him "the bobs" from office space
<0> so he's in there talking about processes and ****
<1> the whole conference room was quiet.
<1> you could've heard a mouse fart
<0> and he says "most larger companies take the view that technical talent is a commodity. You can always buy technical talent."
<0> and I raised my hand
<1> hehe
<0> and he said "yes?"
<0> I said "listen, I don't know where you get that technical talent is a commodity. Allow me to correct you. Resumes loaded with technical talent are a commodity. The technical talent surrounding you in this room right now is not. So let's define the difference between paper commodity and human talent if we're going to continue this meeting."
<3> siglite...heh, I listened to 12 CEO's here in Vegas lament the fact there is a huge lack of tech-savvy people...I told 12 CEO's (anyone with any friggin brains wouldn't GO into IT these days)...the silence was incredible :)
<0> everyone was speechless
<1> heh heh
<0> he started backpeddling so fast I thought he was trying to turn back time.
<4> haahaa!
<1> okay i gotta go, lindsey is bitching at me to come to bed
<1> later guys
<3> <--- scared the crap out of a large firm the other day through some routine testing of their web farm via telnet...:)
<0> it will be
<0> dust'll settle.
<3> of course, it made the CTO quite nervous :)
<0> yeah
<0> we get that **** on pentests all the time.
<0> had a big one recently, really freaked out some folks.
<3> didn't help matters that the CTO and I have known each other for 21 years
<0> unfortunately, I can't talk about any of it
<0> because that'd be a great one to brag about
<5> hrm, that banmask is pretty broad ;)
<5> i think that might have been a false positive there..
<0> might have
<0> I know why it's there though.
<5> yeah, i know the ***hole in question is persistant
<0> those tardo racist bots that come in spewing "congratulations on your purchase of a brand new nigger" etc....
<4> Tron__
<6> knoMdlO
<4> sjh
<6> have to spend $80 rather than $25 because they can not get their **** together
<0> telcos tend to ****.
<0> ok, I gotta get to bed.
<7> siglite: sleep well
<6> of course laptops and wireless allow one to irc from bed
<6> how do we know you are not in bed already
<6> or on the toilet
<7> sjh: or even from train like I do atm.

<4> Sunblade
<10> hi OldMonk
<3> slowz

<10> weird
<7> euh?
<4> brb
<11> t minus 3h and counting :)
<12> anyone familiar with Fedora? I have a very basic question...
<13> just ask!
<12> for some strange reason my system does not support booting from cd-rom... how can i create the install boot floppy disks?
<10> russel, with whom are you engaged ?
<14> Is there a way to chroot ftp users into their home folder using local users (vsftpd) and still allow them to follow through a sym link to another folder they have access too?
<14> I don't want them being able to float around the file system, but they need to be able to access web folders in a folder outside their home
<10> I don't think so, but I am not sure.
<15> BobTheSpeake: I'd chroot them in their homedir and bind-mount whatever they need to have access to into their homedir.
<14> vsftpd help file said there is security implimecations with chroot_local_users?
