Collection of use­ful, rel­ev­ant or inane places on the the Internets for 6 Dec 09:

  • Random Acts Of Reality :: Father – 

    This guy is an ambu­lance /​ para­medic and his father aban­doned him and his fam­ily. Then he gets called out for an emer­gency and it’s his father who he has to assist.

    I find the story heart­break­ing in its humanity.

  • When it rains it pours! | Michael McNamara – 

    Michael McNamara is get­ting weird­ness from his Nortel ERS8600 switches and wants to know if any­one else is hav­ing the same prob­lems. Please drop by and add your com­ments if you can. Even if you aren’t, that would be a help.

    



    I wouldn’t want to be hav­ing these prob­lems on my core switches.

  • Is Google Public DNS safe? Look at the source ports — InternetNews:The Blog — Sean Michael Kerner — I am sure that there is much more to come on Google’s Public DNS but ini­tial secur­ity checks sug­gests that it’s secur­ity is good enough. 

Since most ISP’s have not upgraded their DNS for source port vul­ner­ab­il­it­ies, you should use either OpenDNS or Google. I choose Google so that I don’t get the ads from OpenDNS.
