Neither does anyone else, which is part of the problem. SecureID relies
on algorithmic generation of tokens, and security through obscurity to
ensure that the elgorithm remains secret. Not an approach I'm keen to
trust.

Furthermore, there are strong rumours (from semi-reliable sources) that
the black hat community have cracked the algorithm.

Yep, I'm interested. To be honest, you're a victim of your own success.
Unless there are hidden depths and oscure corner cases, your website
already covers mod_acquire pretty comprehensively. In contrast, I know
next to nothing about OCaml, so a talk about that would be much more
beneficial.

GLLUG Shirts

I'm checking out a source to have some polo shirts embroidered with the GLLUG 
logo. For those who are interested please email me directly, so I can keep 
tabs. Cost should be low, due to the GBP to USD rate and also from a few 
other factors.

Cheers,

Zachary

Some of use followed the links and started on the tutorial. Unfortunately
Ruby won and i wasted^W invested a couple of days playing with that
instead.

I'd be more than willing to sit through an intro if it was a little more
hands
on than the average talk.

Request for help.

I've recently joined the group because I know virtually nothing about
Linux, but am still using it [sometimes a dangerous combination :) ].

My system is White Box Enterprise Linux 3.0 [essentially the open-source
variant of RHEL3] with an athlon xp 1800+, 1gig ram and 240gig h/d. I
have a broadband connection going through a Netgear ADSL firewall router
DG834 [its a combined modem/firewall/router] which is a lovely beastie
but a right swine if I want to dcc a document to a friend whilst on IRC,
or again run my eggdrop bot on IRC [dcc chat problems again].

I'm now in the situation of wanting to send a fax to someone, and
possibly getting a faxed reply from them [although I don't know how its
going to get through the firewall]. Netgear have told me "If the faxes
you are attempting to send are being transferred with TCP/IP then yes
this unit will work fine." So does anyone know of a fax program that I
can compile onto my box, that uses a GUI and TCP/IP please? I've
searched on Google Linux [http://www.google.co.uk/linux] but I don't
think that I was using the right keywords, or I didn't understand the
replies that it gave.

Can anyone help me please?

Sharon.

I'd be interested in that. I started on the tutorial but ran out of
time...

Put me down for one (tentatively).

Freshmeat is probably the best place to search for open source
software programs - all of any importance have listings there:

  http://freshmeat.net/

You  can also brwose by category, for example Communications::Fax

No. There is no such thing as a fax program that uses TCP/IP. Faxes
work over phone lines. Not over the internet. It's possible that you
could use an internet to fax gateway (try http://www.tpc.int/, for
example), in which case, yes, your fax would need to go through the
Netgear box to get to the gateway.

If you have a modem, then you can send a fax with hylafax or sendfax
(distributed with mgetty). But it won't be over the internet, and
hence your firewall need never know about it.

For sending faxes I use a service call fax.co.uk.  It works by sending 
emails to the fax number you want to send to and they will actually do 
the faxing for you.  As others have mentioned you can't use a normal fax 
machine over a network.  Check out the address above for info about that 
service, it's cheap at £5.00 minimum a month (and you get £5.00 worth 
faxes and SMS's).  Incoming faxes if you have a number setup with them 
will be converted to email and sent on to you.

Cheers!!!
