Show everyone how brilliant > you are. Speaking only for myself, I tried writing for _SysAdmin_ magazine. Frankly, there is no organization anywhere on the planet that has ever treated me worse than they did. I don't know what it's like for other publications, or if maybe things at _SysAdmin_ have since improved. I also know that most journalists don't get paid squat, which explains a lot of the problems of most of them not understanding anything and not being able to write about it in a coherent manner. So, it's got to be something you're doing because you've got other means of support and you can afford to be a journalist because you love it, and not because that's how you make your living. Everyone else will just kowtow to whomever writes the checks. -- -- Brad Knowles <brad@...>, Consultant & Author LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> Slides from Invited Talks: <http://tinyurl.com/tj6q4> 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 _______________________________________________ ALG Mailing List http://austinlug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/alg
We're pretty easy to deal with at SourceForge, Inc, nee OSTG. In fact, before I became an employee, and wrote for them as a freelancer, it was the best freelance contract I had ever seen. IDG et al wanted all rights and the children -- living or dead -- of those rights. With us, we get a 30 day exclusive, and then it's all yours again, copyright and all. My first book, for example, CLI for Noobies, will be published this summer, and it's mostly made up of material from a weekly column I did for Linux.com. Anyway, if you would rather write than fight with a publisher, drop a note or a pitch to editors at linux.com. We're always looking for content. In fact, a couple of guys (Jim Parkhurst, for one) have written for us in the past.

Show everyone how brilliant > you are. Did I make a claim of being smart? I certainly did not intend to. By "media" I was referring not to the software media such as newsforge, infoweek or the like, but to network television, AM and FM radio stations, and newspapers such as the Austin Statesman. I am certainly not a candidate for a job in that area. Thanks for your reasoned comments, though. -- -- Willie, ONWARD!

Greetings ALG folks, I've been asleep at the wheel for a few years now regarding IPtables and the modules that work with it, but the "recent" module has caught my eye. I'd like to write a little PERL or Ruby script that examines syslog for failed SSH attempts and then blocks further attempts from he source IP for 5 minutes. I've found many example doing similar things, but I would like to write to the /proc/net/ipt_recent/DEFAULT file directly and I'm unsure about the format of the file. Any hints would be appreciated. Thanks. -- Jeff Gipson Process Networks Plus, Inc www.pnplus.com (512) 260-1699 x307 _______________________________________________ ALG Mailing List http://austinlug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/alg
