  2. SKA-related 'citizen science' project seeks participants Emma Trkulja (Computerworld)19 September, 2011 12:52 TheSkyNet, a community computing project, has gone online, with people encouraged to contribute spare CPU cycles to help radio astronomers process data. Sponsored by the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR), the Curtin University and the WA government’s Department of Commerce, the project will use thousands of PCs to form a distributed computing engine to scan data from telescopes and search for sources of radiation at radio wavelengths that could be coming from stars, galaxies and other objects throughout the universe. ICRAR director, professor Peter Quinn, said that theSkyNet project will raise awareness of the Square Kilometer Array]] (SKA) radio telescope project and complement the data processing of supercomputing facilities. “TheSkyNet aims to complement the work already being done by creating a citizen science computing resource that astronomers can tap into and process data in ways and for purposes that otherwise might not be possible,” Professor Quinn said. ICRAR’s Outreach and Education Manager, Pete Wheeler, recently told Computerworld Australia that the project will aid in the data processing of the forthcoming Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope. “We will be running data sets on [skyNet] ... so the researchers, as they ramp up to deal with bigger and bigger cubes of data, can overcome some of the challenges they need in order to start processing things like ASKAP [Australian Kilometre Array Pathfinder] data in the future,” he said. The SKA will be the world’s largest telescope when it is complete and it will cost around $2.5 billion dollars, which will be shared between institutions in 20 countries (including Australia, New Zealand, and countries in North and South America, Europe, Africa and Asia). The SKA will have up to 50 times the sensitivity and 10,000 times the survey speed of current radio telescopes.
  3. I am upgrading some components of my network to fiber optics. For instance between switches i will be using media converters and fiber patch leads. My servers will all be using 10Gigabit adapters. I still have a long way to go, but in the end it should be a very fast network.

  5. Yes, you can build your own firewall hardware with one of the these Linux Firewall distros. 1) Smoothwall 2) PSfense 3) Untangle.
  6. If you know the administrator password of your brother's computer, than PsExec would definitely be something you want to try. On the other hand, since I haven't used FreeVNC or logMeIn, don't know how effective they are in terms of controlling a PC remotely, ( does it require the end user to accept your session or does it automatically logs you in and give you full control). I've used Dameware in the past and its really scary, it doesn't require any end user interaction, you get full control of the PC in matter of seconds. Now when using PsExec there is no need for installation, it's all command line based. You can download it from this URL, http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897553. The url also contain some sample commands that will be useful when learning. If you need any assistance just hit me up.
  7. Oh that article, yeah I read it the other day.

  9. For the first time, the U.S. has interpreted an existing treaty to include aggression in cyberspace as a trigger for international military cooperation. The U.S. and Australia issued a joint statement that says they both interpret the 1951 ANZUS Treaty among the U.S., Australia and New Zealand to mean that if one country suffers a cyberattack it will consult with the other in deciding how to deal with it. In the past the treaty has resulted in Australia sending troops to help fight the Vietnam War and to supplement U.S. military operations in Afghanistan. This is the first cooperative international expression of the U.S. tenet for cyberwarfare that says cyberattacks may warrant physical, military retaliation. "This is the battlefield of the future," said U.S. Department of Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, "and our ability to work together is extremely important to the challenge of being able to counter this very significant emerging threat." The joint statement was issued by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Panetta along with Australian Minister for Foreign Affairs Kevin Rudd and Australian Minister for Defence Stephen Smith. It says in part that "in the event of a cyber attack that threatens the territorial integrity, political independence or security of either of our nations, Australia and the United States would consult together and determine appropriate options to address the threat." The two governments "recognize the value of close collaboration with allies and like-minded nations on cyber issues, and are working together closely to address mutual threats and challenges emerging in and from cyberspace," the statement says. "This represents a new operational dimension the US Alliance. It is appropriate we take this step on the 60th Anniversary of the Alliance," Rudd said in a written statement.

  10. From an efficiency point of view, GPUs would be the way to go. It all depends on what type of software you want to use them for. You would be saving a lot on electricity bills and room space, plus you would also need a well air-conditioned room, to compensate for the heat generated from the graphics card. On my rig, I'm currently running a high end Nvidia graphics card and man, if I run it flat out for a few hours my room instantly becomes an oven. I am thinking on upgrading it to one of those hydro graphic cards, that has support for water cooling.
  11. Try setting up a SSH server at home and then use it to connect from your school network. Since the school hasn't blocked ports 80 and 443 you should change the SSH default port which is 22 to either one of those that aren't blocked. Also you should watch some of these episodes to give you a better idea, on how you could set it up. http://hak5.org/episodes/episode-416 http://hak5.org/episodes/episode-504 http://hak5.org/episodes/episode-607 http://hak5.org/episodes/episode-614
  12. I totally missed that one, to be honest!
  13. How are you serving the "Hub Page" locally on you LAN or through the Internet?
  14. Or at least you come back to tell them that someone will get back to them, rather than having them holding on the line, which is a bit rude and unprofessional if you were to do that.
  15. Good point, in the BIOS you will need to disable the CPU fan or the system will halt during the booting process. Had to do this on mine, since I'm running water cooling on my rig.
  16. Hiren's Boot CD Kismet InSSIder Ophcrack And lots more.
  17. Yeah I know their password policy sucks and you are not the only one facing this dilemma. I recently opened up an E-trade account and after a few days I forgot my trading password. Called the bank help desk and one of their operators told me no to use special characters ($^$%@*#) but letters and numbers. I was like what the FFF.
  18. Let me guess are you working for an IT help desk or something alike. Well, I used to work for an IT help desk before and I can share your frustration very much. Let's put this way, its very hard to deal with clients over the phone. They can become very impatient and intolerable. Not all clients are like that it all depends who you run into to. I did a lot of training to learn how to deal with that sort of clients and in the end I just gave up on the job I just couldn't bear with the frustration and stupidity of the clients. But one thing I learned was that they become very appreciative of you, if you are on site with them resolving their issue. So even If you can't go on site, get someone who can, its easy that way, you don't stress yourself nor the client.
  19. Why is that, if you don't mind me asking?
  20. I haven't seen one that allows you to do that, however I was thinking and wouldn't be bad to build one and have it streaming your TV channels.
  21. Have you tried downloading the latest version of the Shockwave and reinstalling it again? It could be installer that is corrupted or the Windows update that is causing the problem.
  22. Check out "Deluxe 4GH" plan at Godaddy, it supports Ruby CGI and Ruby on Rails w/FASTCGI http://www.godaddy.com/hosting/web-hosting.aspx?ci=9009

    I don't see why not, you need to specify in the firewall rules what interfaces is what. For example: Eth0 - WAN Eth1 - LAN
  24. Try using OpenVPN, it allows you to establish an outside connection into your LAN by encrypting the traffic.
