Flip-switch day
Flip-switch day
11/16/2003 08:29 PM
Lots of changes today, but ones with (Murphy-willing) very
small impact on the user interface. In fact, unless they don't work,
you shouldn't see any difference at all. Since this is
Scripting News, and not Knitting News, we'll go ahead and say which
switches got flipped.
First, www.scripting.com now resides on the east coast instead
of the west. The new Monster servers, the 3GHz meat-eaters that
climb skyscrapers, are now both managing the content and doing the
serving for everything on scripting.com.
The picture of King Kong to the right will
appear when the new server is visible through DNS to your browser. If
you see a broken image and want to see what the picture looks like
just click on it.
Second, a big change in the way the outliner works. We used to
have to tell it how to format a day of weblog posts using
Rules, a great feature if you want a lot of control over how
things look, but a pain in the butt if every day looks exactly like
every other day, as is always true in my weblog.
Third, this is going to be a product, not one that I plan to
sell (although I may give it to UserLand and they might sell it). It's
a new kind of outliner-based Web CMS, that does weblogs and all the
other stuff you see popping up here on Scripting. I spent much of the
day exploring ideas for how to package, test and then ship this.
Should it be a Manila plug-in? Or
something that's linked to Manila on a sort of peer basis? Or should
it be completely independent of Manila? I want to deliberate on this
decision, because I expect to live with it for a long time.

Yes, But When Can I Switch Off From
Work?
04/14/2004 10:37 PMWelcome to the modern "always on, always connected" work world. It's
gotten to the point where Microsoft discovered, after handing out
smart phones, tablet PCs and broadband connections to employees that
they needed to
give their employees special instructions on how to turn
off work. This isn't a new problem, and it's certainly been
discussed before. While some people can handle the work/life balance
without a problem - it's not so easy for everyone else. Even for
those who can switch off, it's made more difficult by their colleagues
who can't - and who contact them at odd hours with work requests.
This is going to become a bigger issue for modern companies to deal
with. There are, obviously, some advantages, but people need to learn
their limits.

One Less Reason Not To Switch
05/11/2004 01:45 PMNovell has announced in a p
ress release that they will release the Exchange Connector for
Ximian Evolution, previously a $75/seat plugin, as open source.
Novell today announced its Connector for Microsoft* Exchange Server
will be integrated into EvolutionTM 2.0 and made available as open
source, beginning today with the current Connector 1.4. Evolution is
Novell's award-winning e-mail and workgroup client for Linux* systems
and is the most widely used collaboration suite on Linux. Evolution
Connector allows Microsoft Exchange Server 2000/2003 users to easily
manage their e-mail, calendars, group schedules, address books, public
folders and tasks from Linux desktops.
I was thrilled to hear this. Evolution (particularly the current
betas) is the equal of MS Outlook in features, but without many of the
problems. The only downside was that you had to pony up the cash to
natively connect with an Exchange server. My guess is that Novell
feels that having this out there will speed the adoption of Linux, and
that will provide them more revenue than they had been making by
selling the plugin. A positive side effect of Ximian being purchased
by Novell.
It appears that Novell has recognized their increasing irrelevance
in their old niche, LAN products, and is jumping in to open source
with both feet. Could this approach put them back into dominant
position?

The Manglefreuzer Switch

eaked out.
...there's always the chance the mangelfreuzer switch will trip -
which would be a problem."
"What's a manglef.. r."
"Manglefreuzer - as in Mangle-Froy-TSir. It's a switch or other
device that hardware manufacturers put into their equipment to detect
unuathorised access to a box - and makes the system act
strangely."
"Strangely?"
"Yes, you know, the odd memory error, harddisk write error, machine
crashes, etc. To encourage you not to tamper with the box. And
generate revenue for the maintenance provider of course."
"Are you serious?!"
"Of course. Some of our major outages have been those exact same
problems."
"You mean they're all caused by a manglefreuzer?"
"Some of them, yes. Obviously no sane vendor would build in
something which could be conclusively linked as the source of a
problem, so they make the outages sporadic and hard to track
down..."
"And people know about this?"
"Technical people, yes."
"And you're ok with that?"
"We don't really have that much choice in the matter, do we? Anyway
all the vendors do it - and not just in computers."
And all this time I've been blaming the problems on interference
from low-flying cloaked alien spacecraft. Those PC-building dirtballs!

Vivato's 802.11g Switch Has FCC Approval
Vivato's 802.11g Switch Has FCC Approval
04/16/2004 06:33 PMVivato's filings for its VP2200 802.11g switch were approved by the
FCC today: Filings show the antenna has a maximum 48.1 dBi EIRP which
is a measure of its effective signal strength. The VP2200's manual
says that it supports receiving Power over Ethernet. The Ethernet
ports are just 10/100 Mbps, not gigabit Ethernet, which is slightly
surprising. It appears to have six separately configurable wireless
interfaces, each of which can be set to a unique channel or which can
be set in multiples to the same channel. The VP2200's manual also
shows the full command-line interface, including configuring multiple
VLANs, but makes no mention of WPA at all, only WEP and 802.1X/EAP.
You can review Vivato's exhibits here, including the tentative user
manual and photos of the unit's internal and external parts....
