Mail about keyboard security [OT]
by Rony 12 Jun '10

12 Jun '10

Hello, Just like the dozens of forwarded mails that warn us of the so called 'dangers' in many things, products, places etc, I received a mail warning the reader about keyboard security. I brushed it off but went on google to check it out. It is no. 11 and goes like this.... "11. Beware of New FRAUD strategies - Keyboard PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHENEVER YOU'RE USING A PC AT A PUBLIC PLACE (Like INTERNET CAFES..ETC).CHECK THE BACK OF THE PC AND SEE IF THE BELOW DEVICE IS THERE..IF SO..DO NOT USE IT!!!!" http://infosecawareness.in/security-tips I would not take this seriously but it is from the site of CDAC, so is there any truth in this or the site itself is some fraud using CDAC's name? -- Regards, Rony.

You probably aren't using the correct output stream. I'd suggest using HTTP or RTP (Realtime) for proper streaming under destination options. Also, check the Transcoding to get the correct A/V codecs for target device. IE and FF can handle only certain stream / codecs natively. Surya

Now I am learning how to do Scheduling of videos. VLC is really cool tool. But I found problem running vlc videos on IE. Also on firefox with windows you need to install VLC player with Mozilla plugin selected. One more issue is installing vlc on production CentOS server. I couldnt install it with yum. May be I need to compile it. I will work on it and post doc for it. Thanks n Regards Neelesh

Upgrading kernel 2.4 to 2.6 for RH8.0

Argh. here is the new thread.

Replying to an old email with a new subject, does not create a new thread. You can (with debian, never tried it with RH). But it's dicey, as you require a newer libc6, gcc, modutils and initram tools. Any reason for not switching to a newer distro? -- Rgds JTD
