Actually, I know of a neighborhood, near Leigh High School that effectively didn't have DSL internet for a couple months under SBC. But I've heard that SBC refusing to fight malware got the whole neighborhood blocked by most top level internet servers. It may have actually been a disconnect, or not. An associate of mine may show up wanting to set up some connection sharing with a windows box through a linux box at the next installfest. He's kinda burn me out at trying to help him. <br><br><b><i></i></b><blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><rossbernheim@speakeasy.net><conspire@linuxmafia.com><daniel@gimpelevich.san-francisco.ca.us><pan.2007.12.30.15.23.23.858811@gimpelevich.san-francisco.ca.us>m: Rick Moen <rick@linuxmafia.com><br>Subject: Re: [conspire] Communications, a lack thereof<br>To: conspire@linuxmafia.com<br>Message-ID: <20071230183032.GB5643@linuxmafia.com><br>Content-Type:
