| 07:04:42 PM | warcow105 | oy, thats some beard you got going EricKidd
|
| 07:04:46 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | That's why I want the literature
|
| 07:05:07 PM | Gadwil | Eric looks like he is like 23 just with a much more massive beard.
|
| 07:05:26 PM | _Jot_ | free literature - www.gutenberg.org
|
| 07:05:52 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | _Jot_, that isn't a gift.
|
| 07:05:54 PM | warcow105 | hey Hillary, how are things?
|
| 07:06:16 PM | _Jot_ | GWG, I'm giving that link, isn't that a gift?

|
| 07:08:31 PM | calhydro | I love my pogoplug
|
| 07:08:41 PM | Ledzep | Who sells them in Canada
|
| 07:10:16 PM | GoodGuy | RobbieF-EricKidd: I saw the new Black PogoPlug at Best Buy in Michigan a couple days ago
|
| 07:10:19 PM | Gadwil | To anyone who hasn't heard of this yet.... http://www.grc.com/dns/benchmark.htm ... DNS Benchmarking tool, very useful.
|
| 07:10:45 PM | Gadwil | Works in WINE in Linux and Mac.
|
| 07:10:48 PM | blakkheim | i saw that on security now
|
| 07:11:08 PM | Gadwil | Yea, that is where I heard of it too since it just came out. Just letting those who may not keep up with SN know.
|
| 07:11:21 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I limit my TWIT ingestion
|
| 07:11:45 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | There is only so much Leo I can take in a week. You watch too much, he starts to repeat himself.
|
| 07:12:09 PM | Gadwil | GWG, He repeats even if you don't listen. Other people do.
|
| 07:13:25 PM | Yazid | Hi Hillary! Cool Beans
|
| 07:13:36 PM | warcow105 | lol, just got back from florida yesterday :-)
|
| 07:13:42 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Gadwil: How many hours of TWIT do you watch?
|
| 07:13:50 PM | Hillary | Hi Yazid! hahah! :)
|
| 07:13:53 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | warcow105: how was Florida? Where in Florida?
|
| 07:13:56 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Hi, Hillary.
|
| 07:14:01 PM | ausrob2 | Wish pogoplug was more readily available in Australia then it is at the moment
|
| 07:14:31 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Robbie, if you want to go to Florida, I say take the kids to Disney World.
|
| 07:14:41 PM | GoodGuy | I watch some of the TWIT shows on a WD Live TV using the MediaFly app
|
| 07:14:45 PM | warcow105 | GadgetWisdomGuru, it was very nice of course, went to disney for a few days, then to my parents vacation condo in vero beach for a few days, then back up to disney again lol
|
| 07:15:08 PM | Gadwil | Depends on the week GWG. Generally 3-4 hours though. Windows Weekly, Security Now, TWiCH, and other things like TNT, TWiT, FLOSS etc. intermittently.
|
| 07:15:13 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | warcow105: Which Disney? There are many parks? Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, EPCOT...
|
| 07:15:14 PM | blakkheim | i just do all of this manually with my freebsd server ┐(´ー｀)┌
|
| 07:15:16 PM | GoodGuy | Does NewEgg or Amazon ship to Australia?
|
| 07:15:19 PM | Gadwil | First 3 I listen to each episode.
|
| 07:15:33 PM | blakkheim | samba/sftp/rsync through ssh
|
| 07:15:36 PM | Gadwil | Amazon GoodGuy, they should at least. Newegg I believe is US/CA only.
|
| 07:15:38 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I often listen to TWIG. I like Jeff Jarvis
|
| 07:15:47 PM | GoodGuy | Thanks Gadwil
|
| 07:16:20 PM | warcow105 | GadgetWisdomGuru, all the parks, jump around them a lot. we got the pass for the special holiday night at the magic kingdom too which was nice
|
| 07:16:24 PM | Gadwil | Jeff Jarvis is a good person, my thing is I don't really keep up with Google that well. But I don't think I can take anymore TWiT each week. I will listen if it is on TWiT live though.
|
| 07:16:30 PM | GoodGuy | I like that Dr Kiki.. she has a PhD and pretty cute with her sense of humor
|
| 07:16:36 PM | ausrob2 | - GoodGuy - Don't think so well not last time i checked but should look again
|
| 07:16:42 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | warcow105: Did you go on my favorite ride? The Carousel of Progress?
|
| 07:17:08 PM | warcow105 | always...one of my faves as well
|
| 07:17:09 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | warcow105: It's a great big beautiful tomorrow.
|
| 07:17:11 PM | GoodGuy | She has a science show (I dont watch) and guest hosts on Tech News Daily
|
| 07:18:18 PM | Ledzep | Could I give my son who lives on his own access to my drive or am I the only one.
|
| 07:18:22 PM | GoodGuy | I believe you don't need to install the PogoPlug Drive software.. that's just to make it appear as a drive and not require using the web interface
|
| 07:18:59 PM | warcow105 | http://www.merriam-webster.com/cgi-bin/audio.pl?execut03.wav=executable
|
| 07:19:00 PM | Gadwil | You can ledzep, not sure exactly how though since I don't have a Pogoplug. You can give him access to certain folders.
|
| 07:19:07 PM | GoodGuy | You can share any connected drive Ledzep.. read only or R/W
|
| 07:19:41 PM | warcow105 | lol
|
| 07:19:43 PM | GoodGuy | Folders as Gadwil said.. a top level folder would share the entire drive
|
| 07:19:47 PM | _Jot_ | you can change it per folder too, not just drive even, or give a link to a folder, and not a drive etc
|
| 07:19:50 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | warcow105: I've given up telling Robbie how to pronounce things
|
| 07:20:41 PM | Hillary | its the canadian accent!
|
| 07:20:42 PM | Hillary | don't be hatin'
|
| 07:20:42 PM | Hillary | ;)
|
| 07:20:46 PM | warcow105 | lol
|
| 07:21:10 PM | ajamison5579 | Canadians are cool we get our Snow here in Michigan from them
|
| 07:21:12 PM | ajamison5579 | lol
|
| 07:21:15 PM | _Jot_ | Robbie asked us to make more fun of him cause he was jealous we made fun of others
|
| 07:21:23 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Hillary, mispronouncing the name of the airport in Madrid is not an accent issue.
|
| 07:21:50 PM | warcow105 | haaaa
|
| 07:21:53 PM | warcow105 | haha
|
| 07:23:00 PM | ajamison5579 | RobbieF how would you add the mounting to fstab so it mounts every time you boot
|
| 07:23:29 PM | Cory` | Guys, this is the language of Linux :P
|
| 07:23:47 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I always wondered if there was a good automatic way to mount a local resource locally if you were on your home network, but remotely if you were away.
|
| 07:23:50 PM | Hillary | bahaha, i know gwg, i was being saucy. s'all,
|
| 07:23:59 PM | GoodGuy | I wrote a small script to chown etc on a FreeNAS (FreeBSD) system
|
| 07:24:18 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Hillary: If I ever come on the show, I'll be sure to pronounce everything with a distinct accent for you.
|
| 07:24:33 PM | GoodGuy | Never could have done in before watching Cat5 and learning some Linux
|
| 07:24:50 PM | blakkheim | GoodGuy: isn't freebsd debian-based now?
|
| 07:24:51 PM | GoodGuy | FreeBSD is similiar to Linux
|
| 07:24:54 PM | blakkheim | freenas*
|
| 07:25:19 PM | GoodGuy | No.. The new OpenMediaVault will replace FreeNAS
|
| 07:25:25 PM | blakkheim | and i don't know about caling it "similar to linux"
|
| 07:25:29 PM | warcow105 | freebsd and linux are similar to unix
|
| 07:25:48 PM | Yazid | @Robbie - I've been dying to see this done. Thanks you
|
| 07:25:51 PM | warcow105 | actually bsd is almost unix
|
| 07:25:59 PM | ajamison5579 | Robbief what line would you use to add it to fstab
|
| 07:26:00 PM | warcow105 | same heritage
|
| 07:26:07 PM | tomchristy | And now the GUI method
|
| 07:26:09 PM | GoodGuy | FreeNAS is staying BSD.. they just released the new version.. It uses NanoBSD and is a complete rewrite
|
| 07:26:26 PM | blakkheim | i love freebsd :3
|
| 07:26:41 PM | warcow105 | yeah, freebsd is nice
|
| 07:26:45 PM | warcow105 | i use it on some servers
|
| 07:26:46 PM | GoodGuy | The guy who wrote FreeNAS originally moved to the OpenMediaVault (Debian) NAS
|
| 07:26:57 PM | GoodGuy | It isn't ready yet
|
| 07:27:32 PM | Ledzep | Is the Pogoplug sort of like using an FTP setup ??
|
| 07:27:45 PM | GoodGuy | The new FreeNAS is... I just tried it in a VirtualBox session.... missing alot of the features in the old version
|
| 07:27:51 PM | sprintcowboy | How do I make a shared folder in ubuntu so both users can access. like the example folder in home. and how can I make this accessable on a home network
|
| 07:27:56 PM | GoodGuy | It is an early beta
|
| 07:28:11 PM | blakkheim | sprintcowboy: samba or nfs or ftp or sftp or sshfs etc.
|

|
| 07:29:22 PM | GoodGuy | I used to watch Food Mob on Revision 3 but they cancelled it :-(
|
| 07:29:44 PM | tomchristy | What camera is she using?
|
| 07:30:40 PM | ajamison5579 | Does Steve Jobs every change his cloths? He allways seems to wear a black shirt with jeans
|
| 07:30:49 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | He could have a closet full of them
|
| 07:31:18 PM | Guest_6155 | can some one tell me what keeps some one from breaking into your online Pogoplug ?
|
| 07:31:23 PM | warcow105 | that is the uniform of the antichrist
|
| 07:31:25 PM | warcow105 | lol
|
| 07:33:12 PM | GoodGuy | Good Passwords Guest_6155
|
| 07:33:15 PM | ajamison5579 | look at that old school logo
|

|
| 07:33:26 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | Hillary misread that Amazon story.
|
| 07:33:33 PM | Guest_6155 | GoodGuy do you have any thoghts on protecting a online pogoplug ?
|
| 07:34:10 PM | GoodGuy | not really.. I own a pogoplug, but I am disabled so I rarely get out of the house
|
| 07:34:59 PM | GoodGuy | I bought it to allow or kids to access a backup drive.. they have usb drives locally and havent tried it yet
|
| 07:35:22 PM | ajamison5579 | Kingsquest
|
| 07:35:33 PM | Guest_6155 | if some one can break into a home network. then whats going to keep them out of you pogoplug files.
|
| 07:35:35 PM | GoodGuy | Most security involves using quality passwords
|
| 07:35:51 PM | Ledzep | I dl Planet C. It is hard to learn.
|
| 07:36:03 PM | GoodGuy | Read up on creating secure passwords etc
|
| 07:36:19 PM | _Jot_ | Ledzep, alices guide, http://rp.apachenet.de click on storage on the left then EU guide
|
| 07:36:49 PM | warcow105 | glad the router suggestion worked out for you RobbieF :-)
|
| 07:36:50 PM | Ledzep | th
|
| 07:36:50 PM | GoodGuy | Plus rotate passwords regularly
|
| 07:36:57 PM | Ledzep | ty
|
| 07:38:20 PM | warcow105 | oh god this guy doesnt get the point that one of the most popular scams is the nigerian email scam
|
| 07:38:24 PM | GoodGuy | The Nigerian govt themselves have said if you allow yourself to get scammed, you were partly at fault too.... I tend to agree
|
| 07:38:35 PM | Ledzep | _Jot_Thanks for the link.
|
| 07:38:45 PM | _Jot_ | Ledzep, no problem :)
|
| 07:39:28 PM | GoodGuy | I win the English Lotto often lol
|
| 07:39:37 PM | Gadwil | When/Where was this interview that they are talking about?
|
| 07:39:39 PM | GoodGuy | In spite of never entering!
|
| 07:40:02 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | It is if you've never been to nigeria
|
| 07:40:33 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | I've never gotten a charge from Nigeria. Larnaca, yes,
|
| 07:40:46 PM | GoodGuy | They are all waving Get Rich Quick offers
|
| 07:41:27 PM | GoodGuy | More population in China than anywhere else, so it makes sense
|
| 07:41:53 PM | warcow105 | im surprised china allows cat5 through the firewall :-/
|
| 07:41:57 PM | Gadwil | RobbieF, This weekend I learned Nod32 works on Linux!
|
| 07:42:16 PM | GoodGuy | I am amazed so many can speak fluent english.. we certainly cant speak mandarin (most of us)
|
| 07:42:16 PM | _Jot_ | warcow, without cat5 being so popular, there wouldn't be a firewall
|
| 07:42:24 PM | alket | EricKidd, missed my testimonial
|
| 07:45:20 PM | Gadwil | Hey G_dog.
|
| 07:45:25 PM | Gadwil | When did you become a Mod?
|
| 07:45:27 PM | G_dog | hey
|
| 07:45:47 PM | G_dog | couple yr ago
|
| 07:45:51 PM | warcow105 | where was i when everyone got mod lol
|
| 07:45:59 PM | ausrob2 | exit
|
| 07:46:20 PM | GoodGuy | Being a Mod is more grief than fun.. be careful what you wish for lol
|
| 07:46:22 PM | Gadwil | Oh, I will try to remember to add you and anyone else I have missed in the list on the Wiki. Once Robbie lets me edit again.
|
| 07:46:41 PM | G_dog | i was in oklahoma for last 6months
|
| 07:46:41 PM | GoodGuy | although this room is civilized compared to many
|
| 07:47:44 PM | ausrob | civilized yes geeky more so lol
|
| 07:50:14 PM | GoodGuy | Does anyone know if a network switch can hand out IP addresses for a Internet TV.. I'm guessing no
|
| 07:50:36 PM | warcow105 | no, need a dhcp server
|
| 07:50:41 PM | warcow105 | like a router
|
| 07:50:54 PM | GoodGuy | I bought one for our daughter forgetting my switch is connected to a router in this room
|
| 07:50:54 PM | warcow105 | or a linux system
|
| 07:51:09 PM | GoodGuy | Thats what I was afraid of warcow105.. thanks
|
| 07:51:25 PM | warcow105 | well if it is plugged into a router you are fine, the switch that is
|
| 07:51:27 PM | GadgetWisdomGuru | You can connect your switch to a router.
|
| 07:51:32 PM | GoodGuy | I wasnt thinking when I bought it this afternoon
|
| 07:52:01 PM | ajamison5579 | I have the Netgear 3700
|
| 07:52:14 PM | ajamison5579 | the step up from Robbies new one
|
| 07:52:19 PM | warcow105 | ajamison5579, same here
|
| 07:52:23 PM | GoodGuy | She doesnt have a router... I have a bunch of routers, but bought them at garage sales so I have to check them out to see how they work
|
| 07:52:41 PM | warcow105 | i recomended it to him, but he like the 3500 better
|
| 07:52:42 PM | GoodGuy | I read thats a great model router ajamison5579
|
| 07:53:04 PM | GoodGuy | I thought thats the one Maximum PC magazine rated best
|
| 07:53:34 PM | ajamison5579 | it is the earlier runs of it has some hardware issues but the modern revisions are fine
|
| 07:53:47 PM | warcow105 | it had the most ram and processor mhz, and most bandwidth at the time i bought it
|
| 07:54:01 PM | warcow105 | thats why i chose it
|
| 07:54:05 PM | GoodGuy | I read they going to create a Ver 2 of it, so I thought I'd wait for that
|
| 07:54:25 PM | GoodGuy | No ETA on it, but I'm in no hurry
|
| 07:54:59 PM | warcow105 | no, they just started naming the latest revs slightly different, even though the device itself has wnd3700 on its serial label still lol
|
| 07:55:14 PM | GoodGuy | I have an old wireless WRT54G, but I'm not using any wireless pieces currently
|
| 07:55:18 PM | warcow105 | same firmware and everything
|
| 07:55:45 PM | GoodGuy | The Ver 2 is supposed to have a faster CPU, more RAM etc
|
| 07:56:48 PM | warcow105 | didnt hear about that one. i needed a new one anyways, and i hate getting caught in that "if i wait a little longer" cycle because a new one is always around the corner lol
|
| 07:56:54 PM | GoodGuy | Recent Maximum PC had a router shootout issue
|
| 07:58:19 PM | GoodGuy | I googled for more info, but no one has anything concrete
|
| 07:58:35 PM | GoodGuy | The Max PC article mentioned it
|
| 07:59:30 PM | GoodGuy | Dec 2010 issue
|
| 07:59:45 PM | GoodGuy | I just located the issue in the living room
|
| 07:59:47 PM | Gadwil | The shootout was also on their website.
|
| 08:00:05 PM | GoodGuy | Yes it was now that you mentioned it
|
| 08:00:22 PM | Yazid | Good Night All1
|
| 08:00:23 PM | calhydro | BYe Bye Cool Session
|
| 08:00:25 PM | GoodGuy | Not sure if they mentioned the alleged Ver 2
|
