12/07   I'm a big lazy wimp who has been spoiled by the nice easy
        GUI that comes with Firewall one.  Anyone know a nice
        easy gui frontend for managing netfilter/ipfw rules?
        \_ vi
        \_http://sourceforge.net/softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat \
          =10&discrim=151
          As a general tip, especially with things like ipfilter's keepstate
          & similar functions under ipchains/ipfw/netfilter/whatever,
          text-based firewall rules tend to be far friendlier to administer
          in the long run;  GUI firewalls lose you a lot of overview and
          quick editing functionality, especially if you're dealing with
          large numbers of rules.  -John

5/7     What's a good reverse port forwarding for a PC(inside firewall) ->
        Unix, so that I can VNC into the Unix that gets forwarded to
        PC's VNC server?

5/4     Is mail still down? I don't seem to be getting any and vermouth

4/22    ok, here's a little networking puzzler. I haven't been able to access
        youtube for a couple weeks. Couldn't figure out why. Happened on all
        browsers. traceroute did weird stuff and then timed out. Finally I
        got so frustrated I setup firefox to ssh tunnel through soda.csua,
        which worked great. Then, I kill the ssh proc, quit FF, and now,
        I can access youtube just fine from any browser. wtf? any

12/1    Just curious -- what do you guys generally use soda for? Why do you
        log on? Personally, I use it to keep a presence on IRC and AIM/gTalk
        at all times, and mess around with some Python programming (been
        setting up Twisted and such so I can play with making an irc bot).

8/5     It looks like my company has started blocking HTTPS tunneling.
        I used to do this by tunneling SSH through the HTTP/HTTPS proxy
        server, but this seems to have stopped working. Does anyone know
        how the implementation of tunneling detection works, and whether
        there are widely available implementations? We run a bunch of MS
        stuff, so I imagine we're running an MS proxy server or something.
