4/29    From the official motd above:
        As of May 11 Soda will discontinue SSH 1 and secure telnet support.  We
        will also be discontinuing support for unauthenticated/unencrypted
        mail services in compliance with university security requirements.
        Please see your email for more information (assuming you're on
        csua@csua).  Questions, comments, complaints, and cheap floozies to
        root.
         \_ Does this mean that I will not be able to access csua using
            ssh, or simply that there will be no one to help with problems,
            or that I need to use a new secure version of ssh?  Also, can
            I still use pine on csua?
            \_ SSHv1 is the old insecure version of the protocol. Most
               ssh clients now support SSHv2. If you are using OpenSSH
               you should have no problems.
         \_ Does this mean we will be able to use soda as an smtp gateway
            when off of campus net?
            \_ From the email sent out a few hours ago:
                To comply with UC Berkeley departmental standards, we must
                terminate support for unauthenticated/unencrypted external
                access to all mail services. If you access Soda via POP, IMAP,
                or send mail through our SMTP server you MUST switch to use
                both authentication and SSL/encryption. These options should
                be easily found within most mailers,

                IMAP / http://soda.csua.berkeley.edu port 993 (w/ssl)
                SMTP / http://soda.csua.berkeley.edu port 465 (w/ SSL + login is
                user@soda.csua.berkeley.edu and password)
                POP / http://soda.csua.berkeley.edu port 995 (w/ auth + SSL)

        \_ Per request, a copy of the email has been saved to the following
           location: /csua/pub/SodaChanges0505
           - jvarga
                \_ As an aside, I've found that for some bizarre reason,
                   Mozilla mail doesn't like some SMTP AUTH/TLS authentication
                   setups, while SMTP AUTH/SSL is just fine.  This is with
                   Postfix/SASL2 & Dovecot/imaps under FreeBSD 5.3-R.  I just
                   went through some trouble setting this up, and if anyone
                   wants my configs I'm happy to share.  -John
            \_ I'm off campus-net and I can send mail fine using SSL on port
               25.
        \_ Does that mean the ssh client at
           http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/ssh will no longer work?

8/29    There was once a CSUA web page which runs an SSH client for logging
        on to soda.  Does that page still exist?  Can someone remind me of the
        URL please?  Thx.
        \_ what do you mean? instruction on how to ssh into soda?
           \_ No I think he means the ssh applet, which, iirc, was an applet
              that implemented an ssh v1 client.  I think this page went away

2/14    You sure soda isn't running windows in disguise?  It would explain the
        uptimes.
        \_ hardly, My winbox stays up longer.
        \_ Nobody cares about uptime anymore brother, that's what web2.0 has
           taught us.  Everything is "stateless".

4/6     My company is evaluating version control systems. Our two candidates
        are Perforce and Subversion. Anyone worked with both and have good
        arguments one way or the other? (These are the only two options we
        have.) We're most interested in client performance, ease of use, and
        reasonable branching.

3/10    What email program do people in Cal CS use nowadays?  In my school days
        people used /usr/bin/mail, then RMail in emacs, then VMail in emacs.
        After my days people used Elm, Pine, Mutt (I forgot which order).  In
        my first two jobs we could tell the seniority of fellow engineers based
        on which email program they use at work, because everyone used what
        they used to use in their school years.  In my last two jobs though,
