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

work either? ldapsearch and getent show the new shell but I still get
the old shell on login.
\_ Scratch that, it magically took my new shell now. WTF?

\_ What's wall?
\_ An anachronism from a bygone era, when computers were hard to
comeby, the dorms didn't have net, there was no airbears, and
when phones didn't come standard with twitter or sms.
\_ A non useful implementation of twitter.

Will this make me a hozer?
\_ Possibly. I wonder if we should have another VM for that...btw,
I remember someone saying they're glad we're not on FreeBSD
anymore, but last I checked, a bunch of our stuff is on FreeBSD,
but our login server is not.

don't have to keep typing passwords inbetween logging into machines.
What's an ideal size for the number of bits in dsa? 1024 is default,
but would 2048 enhance it even more? What do you guys use?
\_ I'm paranoid. I use 4096. Go for at least 2048, I'd say...

not working
\_ That would be because we've yet to set them up afaik. Steven *does* have
a job after all. The idea is that we want a separate computer mounting the
web directories, so that if an exploit compromises the webserver, the shell
server (soda) itself will be insulated from the attack.
