Great customer quote about ZENworks Linux Management:
Chisholm said with SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 OPSM can apply security-related upgrades from a central point, with full control and reporting.
“Within this more secure and up-to-date environment we can better ensure the integrity of our business information and transactions,” he said. “Due to our large number of store locations we also needed a system that could be centrally managed and monitored. Novell’s Zenworks Linux Management offers greater control as it will enable us to update our operating systems and applications from one central point with fewer interruptions to users. We’ll also be able to support an increasing number of stores without increasing our IT staff numbers.”

Just read that Snort 2.4 is officially out – post here, release notes here.
I’ll track to see what IPCop plans to do – currently at Snort 2.3.3; maybe I’ll roll my inner IDS to Snort 2.4 this weekend.

Beta program has opened; there is now a product home page:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/default.mspx
It’s very telling that the strapline is “Arriving in 2006” – placing a definate line in the sand for ship.
Beta 1 is available on MSDN – it’s a not insignificant 2.4GB DVD ISO download – wow. Looks like the baseline for new hardware next year requires a DVD drive..

I’m still trying to find a way to get the BBC Radio streams to run outside of Real Player.
I found a great site with the streams listed in a usable format. This in addition to the BBC Radio Player.
The BBC have done a great job exposing a lot of their behindthe scenes technology. Not only do they ‘support’ Real Player on Linux; they also have a lot of really interesting information they release to the public:
– dirac codec
– backstage.bbc.co.uk
– lots of web infrastructure data
