We first discovered this while troubleshooting why we were receiving logins with an old password.. after updating the settings in Outlook. They had no other email clients, but the 'New Outlook' didn't actually send the update

As an email host... I've been turning New Outlook off for clients for weeks trying to explain this. Apart from the security issues, it's also very annoying to have to explain that I can't actually troubleshoot any IMAP connec

I often have people complain after comparing my works instance pricing to other cloud providers... Then try to explain that rotating a few dozen TB of data offsite to cold offline storage every week isn't cheap. Because unlike some ven

Literally just deployed a pair of new OmniOS NFS servers last night, for high-availability hosting. We also serve VM storage from a pair of Illumos ZFS boxes over iSCSI. We switched most of our primary NFS storage pairs from Linux to Illumo

Ah the good ol' New Direction announcement. Immediately following this was one of the most chaotic times to ever post on an LambdaMOO ARB (Architecture Review Board) *Ballot. (Mines the one with the prog bit stucking out of the pocket,

First, tell Nokia you intend to contact the ACCC about this refund, as the device isn't "fit for purpose" if it can't store files greater than 4GB. If they don't instantly change their tone (as many vendors do once

Every few months I keep telling myself I need to buy one of Cliff's Klein bottles to go alongside my (very dogeared) paperback copy of The Cuckoo's Egg :) Learning all the default VMS passwords definately didn't get me in tro

This bot is stupidly broken - we've had to block a whole swathe of Azure ranges on our load balancer. This particular 'bot' would start crawling in-line Javascript on a customer site, and then get stuck in an infinite loop re

Ah yes. I've also seen NFS/ZFS on Linux have very... bizzare... issues with locking, latency, and poor handling of errors bubbled up from the block layer taking down clients or even the host. All of these went away when we redeplo

The funny thing is that we're running our large NFS servers on OmniOS (with Linux NFS clients), as plugins for a certain large PHP-based blogging platform loves to sprinkle LOCK_EX flocks all over the place. Sadly with a Linux NFS serv

You can't be forced to introduce a "systemic" weakness. On the other hand, a certain four-letter agency can certainly craft a TAN requesting you to, say, weaken your key negotiation for a specific client. That's targette

I wrote a popular shortcuts plugin for Litestep (EasyCuts) and eventually ended up on the core team for while. Working on Litestep taught me so much about Windows internals - and I know a few people ended up being poached by Microsoft to wo
