Why are you posting in this thread when you could be writing a 10,000 word dissertation for my 'bottom posting vs top posting megathread" on yosnet.

Silver Alicorn posted:the build of slrn on SDF does not support SSL i can turn on unencrypted port 119 if desired; since the passwords are custom generated for this application the risk is pretty low. but i'd really prefer to keep everyone on ssl. do they have stunnel?

I’ll ask if they would consider compliling ssl support in the mean time I can use lynx or something

a bunch in the year of Linux on the desktop thread mainly because for the moment my systems (an HP 9000/425t and an HP 9000/433s) are running NetBSD 8 and not HP-UX or Domain/OS I have all I need now to get Domain/OS 10.3 running from an image a friend sent though, and plan to do so soon; it’s too bad there doesn’t appear to be a native Display Manager newsreader still accessible anywhere (hope I’m wrong) our little group of preservationists also now has a DN10000 “personal supercomputer” with two CPUs and 48MB of RAM we’re attempting to bring back to life; it’s a bit rough due to a lack of docs but progress is being made

Salt Fish posted:I had an interview for an internal promotion and one of the questions I got asked was to talk about a layer 4 protocol besides TCP and UDP and I had just read this thread so I said "NNTP for usenet". This is actually completely wrong but it was obscure enough that none of the interviewers knew better and anyway I passed. lol

to those requesting access via pm, you don't need to come up with a fake email address when messaging me, just tell me the username you want. set the bogus email address when configuring your client.
