The Counter project is an attempt to gauge the installed base of FreeBSD. We current do not have a very good idea as to what is our installed base, how FreeBSD is being used and by whom. Because of this, FreeBSD is at a disadvantage when talking to ISVs and hardware and software vendors. You are invited to register with the counter project. The counter page can be found at : http://www.bafug.org/FbsdCounter.html Couple of caveats: * Your information is held to be confidential. Only those on the project, FreeBSD core group, and Walnut Creek CDROM will ever see this information. It will _NOT_ be handed over to spammers, direct marketers, and any of the other assorted bozos. * Suggestions and comments are welcome! * The database behind this page was built from the email registrations sent to Walnut Creek. If you registered at the time of an install chances are you are in this database. This is posted every 1st and 15th of the month.

I'm sure CVS won't cut it. Maybe the android has a small radio antenna built into it, and it communicates with the machine the perlbot is running on over packet radio or something. I'll bet it's slow to do everything over the network, though, so the robot probably handles low-level routines (coordinating leg movements for walking, simulating breathing, etc) locally using some built-in processors, and only communicates with its server for simulation of higher cognitive functions. -- cliff crawford http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/cjc26/ main(q){6-q&&main(q+1),putchar(67+3*(19%q-q/4));} To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-chat Sun Aug 15 23: 4: 7 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-chat@freebsd.org Received: from peach.ocn.ne.jp (peach.ocn.ne.jp [210.145.254.87]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C46CB1536B for ; Sun, 15 Aug 1999 23:04:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dcs@newsguy.com) Received: from newsguy.com by peach.ocn.ne.jp (8.9.1a/OCN) id PAA19556; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 15:04:16 +0900 (JST) Message-ID: <37B7A9AC.50C9AC19@newsguy.com> Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1999 15:03:24 +0900 From: "Daniel C.

Reporter's notebook: Hackers on holiday
By Ann Harrison



ALTLANDSBERG, GERMANY -- CAMPnet, billed as the largest civilian open-air Internet network ever created, sprang to life last weekend when 1,800 European and American hackers gathered at the Chaos Communication Camp outside Berlin. In a tent city, connected by a switched Gigabit Ethernet, hackers on holiday swapped security tools, ate waffles, viewed fire-eating demonstrations, discussed encryption politics and went for dips in the local lake. A camper who attempted to attack the network was subjected to local justice and found himself cleaning toilets.

Constructed around a fable involving an alien spaceship which hailed a group of hackers and touched down for repairs to their damaged computers, the camp featured a sculpted spaceship and a ''landing area'' illuminated by ghostly neon pillars. Inside the 300-foot Hacktent, long tables held hundreds of PCs brought by participants to connect to CAMPnet, which supported 1,500 hosts and carried an aggregate Internet bandwidth of 20M bit/sec.

Lounging outside near one of the seventeen ''data toilet'' portapotties that housed the network routers, Andy Muller-Maguhn said the camp reflected a cultural movement concerned with data security, privacy and the free flow of information.

''It's one thing to be on a mailing list,'' said Muller-Maguhn, who serves as a spokesperson for the Berlin-based Chaos Computer Club (CCC) that created the event. ''But sitting in a campground and having discussions all night gets people networked more closely together and helps develop solutions to problems we haven't even faced yet, while computer companies sell solutions to problems we wouldn't have without them.''

The featured event Saturday night was the Linux Death Match, in which teams of network administrators tried to halt one another's network services. The match was won by a team from Munich that chose not to attack, but instead fortified its machine with FreeBSD tools.

Tobias, a programmer and software developer from Berlin who was watching the match, said he was impressed by the level of expertise. ''It's pretty amazing to see the knowledge these people have, all these people sitting here in front of these machines will never have problem finding a job," Tobias said. ''Everyone around here knows how useful it is to find vulnerabilities, and most of these people don't destroy systems, don't crack systems, they just look at them.''

David Del Torto, director of technology for security services at Deloitte & Touche, taught a workshop entitled ''Take This Job and Ping It/Hacking the Corporate Ladder for Fun and Profit." He said hackers were working at all the Big Five accounting and auditing firms -- where their skills are in high demand. ''As long as you are not hacking the company you work for and destroying your reputation, you are going to have no problem getting jobs,'' Del Torto said.

Security flaws in commercial software and hardware were popular topics at camp workshops, which included discussions on ''Biometric Insecurity'' and the construction of Windows NT Shell Code for Buffer Overflow Exploits. The camp's re-engineering awards went to a group that developed a technique to alter the ID numbers on Global System for Mobile Communications cell phones and to another team that found a way to defeat a biometric fingerprint scanning system.

Despite their demonization in the press, hackers have traditionally distributed critical information about insecure products and used this information to search for better solutions, attendees said. Hugh Daniels, a California resident who presented a workshop on the Linux FreeS/WAN encryption project, pointed to the high rate of online credit card fraud. He said users should demand the creation of networks that cannot be stolen from and strong encryption to protect personal data. ''I'm trying to build a civil society that holds up through mathematics, not guns,'' Daniels told the crowd.

Muller-Maguhn noted that unlike the U.S., which imposes export restrictions on strong encryption, Germany has politicians who listened to advice from the hacker community and chose not to impose similar controls. ''People here are always thinking critically about fascism, so people want to drive the technology, not be driven by it," he said.

Dave Boyce, who works for an Internet service provider in Amsterdam, declared that the ultimate purpose of the camp was to create networks of activists to defend such policies. ''It's important that crypto is free from government control so that we can exchange information freely because ultimately your freedom starts with the exchange of information,'' said Boyce. ''What we are doing here is creating frameworks for the freedom of information."

This is a pretty one-sided archive, omitting most of what Theo said. Look it up in the archives yourself, and look up some of the incidents that lead up to it. It was certainly not the childish reaction Theo paints it as. Theo is very abrupt and thinks everyone in the world other than himself should have skin 3 feet thick, while he is VERY quick to take insult at any reference he doesn't consider complimentary. OpenBSD has been hanging by a financial thread since the day Theo created it because it is Theo's baby, Theo doesn't make (much) money from it or any- thing else, and because Theo fails to attract any considerable development team because he is rude and arrogant. I'm continually amazed at the abrupt, curt, and rude answers I get to every correspondence with Theo or OpenBSD.org, even when I am offering some small item of help. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

Freedom is often viewed as inherently good. You may view this as an evolutionary (either social or biological) quirk, if you so choose. For those past their youth, it may remind them of youth, which of course, they will associate with freedom and we're back here again. Of course, anything so every-day as a particular colour will have many more factors that influence perception of it. -- This is my .signature which gets appended to the end of my messages.

I think this would be a good idea. However, there is only one way I think it might acutally work in practice: (1) The core team, in private, decide on a new name. This can be done through any means - I believe personal combat is the most viable one, but e-mail might be easier to arrange. (2) Core contacts the other interested parties (developers, external contributors, mailing lists, kids with FreeBSD sweatshirts, whatever), and gets an opinion on whether to actually change the name. This might be done with or without saying what the name would be changed to (personally, I think not saying would probably work better), but it is important that it is done AFTER the potential new name has been agreed on, as choosing a name after it has been decided to switch would be impossible.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i Sender: owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I just received the notice that Whistle has discontinued the majority of its product line due to (among other things) "higher than expected demand", and "Whistle's aquisition by IBM". I wonder what will become of this FreeBSD "success story". Personally I think it was a mistake to continue selling a 486 with 8MB RAM, a 1GB hard drive, and a 28.8 modem for $2000. Particularly since there were no major technological improvements to the product since it was introduced. The last major upgrade seemed almost entirely cosmetic. Unfortunately, it's proprietary, so with Whistle no longer working on it there's no possibility of fixing/improving it ourselves. I think I'm going to start looking for a similar hardware platform to develop something similar. Maybe I'm just in a bad mood, since this seems to have been EOL week for ISP equipment. -- Christopher Masto Senior Network Monkey NetMonger Communications chris@netmonger.net info@netmonger.net http://www.netmonger.net Free yourself, free your machine, free the daemon -- http://www.freebsd.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-chat Fri Aug 20 10:28:36 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-chat@freebsd.org Received: from topsecret.net (gill.apk.net [207.54.148.62]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id A526015399 for ; Fri, 20 Aug 1999 10:28:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from gill@topsecret.net) Received: from stumpy by topsecret.net with SMTP (MDaemon.v2.7.SP5.R) for ; Fri, 20 Aug 1999 13:22:33 -0400 From: "James Gill" To: Subject: Cleveland, OH FBSD UG?

Yes, we are transitionning to a new product (see (I think it was June) PCweek for a description of the new product. We made enough of the old model to last till the transition but suddenly there was an increase and change in demand and we ran out of some of them. > > I wonder what will become of this FreeBSD "success story".

The last major upgrade was mostly bugfixes in preparation for the VERY different version about to come out.

We are no longer selling that model as we ran out but we ARE still supporting it and the new ones will replace it. If we were to go under I'm pretty sure we'd make the sources available so you COULD maintain it, but now we are part of IBM I can't see that (going under) happenning any time soon. > > Maybe I'm just in a bad mood, since this seems to have been EOL week > for ISP equipment. It is not EOL for whistle interjet, it's end of model year basically, that's all. we just had a stuffup where we mispredicted the demand and have an unvortunate gap in availability between the old one and the new one. The old IJs will continue to be suported and have upgrades as well. My own information on the announcement is that only certain models (the ones we ran out of) were discontinued. I'm glad that a misaprehension of our demise causes someone so much grief. It's kinda reassuring really :-) julian (BTW this was forwarded to me..
