9/15    I got pacbell DSL, with PPP over Ethernet,
        westell wirespeed DSL modem, can I hook up
        more than one computer without a unix gateway box?
        I can't find any documentation on the web on
        whether if and how to set up dhcp + natd through the
        modem, if it's possible
        \_ Look into a NAT hub/switch.  Line -> modem -> hub -> multiple PCs.
           Or, PacBell could offer multiple IPs.  Same setup as above,
           except the hub/switch does not run NAT.  Someone here should
           know if PacBell offers more than one IP.  Finally, the NAT
           hub/switch must work specifically with PPPoE.
        \_ get the router by linksys.  it's like $140 or so.  it supports
           PPPoE, etc.  I've installed it on a PacBell DSL network at
           my friend's office and it works well.  It also works as a
           rudimentary fireall.  -uctt
           \_ Last I heard the Linksys PPPoE support was in beta.  Office
              DSL was probably not PPPoE but bridged.
              \_ Linksys blows. get the Netgear RT314/Zxyel P314 or
                 the Umax Ugate. http://www.practicallynetworked.com
                \_ anecdoteP
        \_ Windows 2K (and Win98SE, I think) has a net connection sharing
           feature. Refer to the system documentation for details.

4/02    We use Perforce at work for revision control. It seems to work okay.
        Lately, a lot of the newer developers are saying that Perforce
        sucks and we should switch to Mercurial or Git. I have done some
        searching on the Internet and some others have this opinion. Added
        advantage is that Mercurial and Git are free. However, there would
        be some work to switch for the sysadmins and the developers.

4/26    I see that soda has an ipv6 address but ipv6 traffic from this box
        doesn't actually work (ping6 <DEAD>ipv6.google.com<DEAD>, ping6 http://www.v6.facebook.com
        Is this expected to work?
        \_ Soda doesn't have a real IPv6 address.  The IPv6 addresses you see
           in ifconfig are just link-local addresses; any IPv6-capable machine
           will autogenerate these, whether or not it's connected to an IPv6

11/1    I'm moving from a home in Fremont to another home within the same ZIP
        code in Fremont, and AT&T customer service says I cannot transfer my
        DSL service because DSL is not available at my new home.  Is that BS?
        Are they just trying to push me to subscribe to their more expensive
        U-verse service?  I'm not asking for any lightening-speed connection.
