3/27    What's the easiest way to temporarily disable SSH access on a per-user
        basis without changing the user's shell?
        \_ Add a DenyUsers line to sshd_config and restart sshd.
           \_ Perfect. Thanks! --op

3/27    C:\Documents and Settings\person>ping <DEAD>other.site.com<DEAD>

Pinging other.site with 32 bytes of data:

Request timed out.
Reply from 169.235.5.5: TTL expired in transit.

        I have problem connecting to this particular site, but when I tried
        lynx to this site from soda and another site, I don't have any
        problem. Why is that?
        \_ the answer is above; ttl expired. increase your ping ttl and see
           if that changes anything.
           \_ It would be nice if Windows had man pages.
           \_ Aah, if only windows had man pages.

3/27    I have been using bigzoo to call china, but the line quality is pretty
        bad, with long delay and echos.  Anything better out there?  Any
        10-10 plan with no monthly charge/minimum?
        \_ http://www.vonage.com
           This stuff's pretty cool. You need a decent broadband connection
           but you can say goodbye to SBC for almost everything (you still
           need them for DSL). I used my friend's box to call Germany and
           it worked like a charm. The line quality was crystal clear and
           it worked transparently. There's a $15 monthly charge. I think
           Circuit City has a promotion.

3/27    Has anyone bought travel health insurance before for a trip to
        another country (especially for third-world countries like
        ghana, india, etc)? Do you recommend it?
        \_ yes.
        \- are you trying to insure against digestive meltdown or
           hepatitis or motorcycle accident? are you looking for travel
           insurance that will evacuate you by helicopter from the
           backwaters of nepal? i'm not sure you need much more than a
           bottle of cipro and some local intelligence. --psb
           \_ how about Maoist insurgance in Nepal :p

3/27    Clarke caught in yet another lie
                     http://209.157.64.200/focus/f-news/1106748/posts
        \_ aka http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1106748/posts
        \_ That's it, he is a Republican who voted for Gore? Is that
           the best you guys can do??? What "other lie" have you caught
           him in. The stench of Republican desperation is becoming pronounced.
                \_ Compare his interview from 2001 and his testimony
                   before the 9/11 commission.
           \_ The Post article:
     http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/A20071-2004Mar24?language=printer
              says that Clarke claimed under oath that he voted Rep. in 200.
              The MSNBC article:
              http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4608698
              quotes him as saying he voted for Gore.  He's lying in one of
              those, obviously.
        \_ I'm not even sure why we bother to point out this guy is lying
           anymore it's so obvious.  I don't know if he's being paid by
           Democrats or has some personal vendetta against Bush, but he'll be
           coming up on perjury charges real quick here I expect.
           \_ I didn't realize Scott McClellan had a csua account.
        \_ Dude. He registered Republican. He voted for McCain, a Republican.
           Gore was not listed as a choice on Republican primary ticket. For
           the Presidential election he voted for Gore. Both elections
        \_ I'm not even sure why we bother to point out this guy is lying anymore
           it's so obvious.  I don't know if he's being paid by Democrates or has
           some personal vendetta against Bush, but he'll be coming up on perjury
           charges real quick here I expect.
           happened in 2000. Is it really that hard for you guys to think ?
           \_ Please don't bring facts into the discussion!
