Contribute / ProFTPd problem solved

Contribute / ProFTPd problem solved 11/19/2003 06:55 PM

After further analysis of the Contribute problem described earlier, we discovered that Contribute was opening a new FTP connection every time we clicked a link within the application even before we had hit the "edit page" button to fire up the editing mode. Switching the connection over to use SFTP instead of FTP had the same problem, with a secure connection being opened for each link we clicked instead. The connections remained open until we shut down Contribute.

My hunch is that this could be an obscure bug that only surfaces when Contribute is used with ProFTPd 1.2.9. At any rate, we've solved the problem by setting the MaxClientsPerUser directive in the ProFTPd configuration file. Contribute doesn't seem to mind in the slightest.

ProFTPD 1.3.0RC1 (Development branch)

ProFTPD 1.3.0RC1 (Development branch) 04/11/2005 03:52 AM
ProFTPD is a proven, high-performance, scalable FTP server written from scratch, with a focus toward simplicity, security, and ease of configuration. Naturally, ProFTPD powers some of the largest sites on the Internet. It features a very Apache-like configuration syntax, modules, and a highly customizable server infrastructure, including support for multiple 'virtual' FTP servers, anonymous FTP, and permission-based directory visibility.

---

Changes:
Many bugfixes, a new LDAP module, some new directives and functions (e.g. display of transfered files and bytes and the inclusion of mod_delay), and a new "ftptop" command for displaying current connections.

Should Companies Be Sued For Allowing
Pornographic Spam?

Should Companies Be Sued For Allowing
Pornographic Spam? 12/03/2003 11:06 AM
Here come the lawyers. This topic has been discussed before, but as the spam problem gets worse, more lawyers are sensing a chance to make a little extra money, so it's coming up again. Lawyers are now looking to sue companies that allow pornographic spam to reach employee in-boxes saying that it creates an unsafe working environment. Of course, companies already know what a pain spam is to their employees, and they would love to stop it. The problem is that spam is very difficult to stop effectively, and many spam-stopping solutions create additional problems as well (whether its additional maintenance costs or lost legitimate emails). Blaming the spam on the companies that don't use filters seems a bit misplaced. The people who should be blamed are the spammers themselves. Besides, in most cases, the spam is due to someone letting their email address become public. If these lawsuits are valid, then it actually will encourage people to be fast and loose with their email address to get as much porn spam as possible - just to sue their employers.

USATODAY.com - MoveOn PAC, which says it supports "moderate to progressive" candidates and has paid for TV ads opposing President Bush's re-election, starts airing another ad today. Called "Swift Response," the 30-second ad attempts to link Bush to an ad released two weeks ago by an organization called Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. That earlier ad accused Sen. John Kerry, the Democratic presidential nominee and a decorated Navy veteran of the Vietnam War, of lying about his military record.

Revenge of the User: Lessons from

Revenge of the User: Lessons from
Creator/User Battles ETCON talk notes 02/11/2004 04:31 PM
Here're my running notes from danah boyd's Re venge of the User: Lessons from Creator/User Battles at the O'Reilly Emerging Technology Conference in San Diego.

The response is an attempt to "configure the users" -- constrain behavior to acceptable behavior with messaaging, kicking people off, etc.

This won't work: you can't tell a hacker not to hack. These kids are social hackers. You can stop some bad behavior, but you chase off your best users, too.

Dating doesn't happen because you're in a dating context. Dating arises out of real contexts.

Taking away fakesters didn't make Frienster more real. Friendster is unreal because people never remove their friends, even if they never see them (the exception is when you break up, ironic, because ex-lovers are strong ties!).
