RF Wireless
by Dennis Dayman 25 Apr '01

25 Apr '01

As we go over the topic of wireless this reminds me to ask: Any suggestions as to companies/equipment to buy/lease for broadband RF wireless solutions for a small ISP in a small 2-7 mile radius town. What would be needed for such a system? Looking for an affordable systems that's easy to setup into a DS1/DS3. Want to drop the transmitter and receiver onto a FM radio tower. They basically want to sell Internet access to customers so they have wireless broadband since they can't get wired DSL/ISDN broadband. Ideas? Suggestions? --------------------------- Thanks Dennis Dayman dennis(a)swbell.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- What goes up, must come down.

I think the point was (inadvertently made) that this site (209.123.52.40, NAC-NETBLK02, nac.net, running NEPTUNE Microsoft FTP) has a security problem. It is not standard practice to have listable AND writable directories on anonymous ftp servers. If customers need to upload files they should also have individual directories under an unreadable directory tree i.e., /upload/a9-ns/custX /upload/0igm19/custY ... In this case none of the directories under /pub should be listable except perhaps //custX. Whether or not //custX needs to be listable depends on the technical skills of the customer. It is also standard practice to keep detailed logs of all ftp access and monitor, run IDS, and reports on those periodically. Since this is not typically practical using Microsoft software it looks like a straightforward case of 3 strikes you're hacked. -- Roger Marquis Roble Systems Consulting http://www.roble.com/

You must know that just keeping warez available on your systems, makes you eleigible for copyright violations? My daughter dated one of these warez-pirates for a while. Pirate is exactly what most of them are. Unlicensed commercial software is what most of that stuff is. Which means that copyright violation is exactly what you are doing and condoning when you knowingly leave that stuff there. This makes both you and your company vulnerable to shutdown.
