I just saw this in my email and decided to pass it on. The original
article is posted on
ZDnet. It’s
interesting and hopefully it will be addressed quickly.
Rumors are flying that
Dino Dai Zovi’s MacBook Pro exploit has been
swiped and is making the rounds online.
An
anonymous blogger claims he/she was able to monitor the network
at CanSecWest security conference and snag a full packet capture of the
contest, which
pitted hackers against two new MacBook Pro machines:

The LPI Course Project is Alive and well. This is project is will put
free on-line courses for the LPI Levels 1 & 2 exams for ovSAGE members

After several false starts, I have decided review the entire LPI exam
requirements in depth before building the course.

The original speaker has fallen through, not a large enough audience,
and we don’t have the capacity for a very large one, so I guess it’s all
good.
There is a possibility for a speaker from Novell to show up tonight, but
I don’t have confirmation on that either.
I am going to bring along a short video I saw years ago that may be new
to most people. Hopefully the VGA adapter I picked up for my mac works
with the projector.
There I was at the local HTCIA meeting and the presenter was nattering
about HCI and passed this comment:
There are only two industries where the customer base is calles users:
- Computer science, support and design
- Drug Trafficking
It struck me as worth repeating.
For the acronymically challenged…
HTCIA - High Tech Crime Investigation Association
HCI - Human Computer Interaction
I was so happy with a recent book purchase that I decided to install
the book review module. It installed with no issues, and appeared as a
content option as expected. Then the trouble started…
It appears that there is some incompatability with the module. It says
it is installed, I can fill out the forms, but when I save it, nothing.
After wasting a day on changes, attempted fixes, and browsing the
database (of course I had opened the wrong one so nothing appeared to be
working properly), I decided to uninstall it.
