Thursday, September 25, 2003 Samba refreshes Samba steps up Linux/Windows connection. The open-source development team releases an update to its Samba software for connecting Windows desktop PCs with Linux or Unix servers. [CNET News.com - Front Door] Samba now integrates with Microsoft's version of Kerberos and with Microsoft Active Directory, through LDAP. Apparently, Microsoft hasn't totally locked down the intellectual property for the protocols required to connect to and from Windows. 1:53:27 PM    comment[ so far] Is Verisign untrustworthy? Here's a question (with credit to Noel Bergman) that nobody seems to be asking: does Verisign's hijacking of unregistered domain names to pull traffic to its advertising-sponsored web pages lower the level of trust in the company? And if Verisign is less trustworthy, would you trust certificates from them (see the quote at the end of the linked article)? Should a company that can't be trusted be allowed to manage domain registration? 10:14:10 AM    comment[ so far] © Copyright 2003 Sean Gallagher . Last update: 10/11/03; 10:41:03 AM .
