oiaohm | Something I like design a business network from nothing. | May 01 13:03 |
oiaohm | I guess you have heard about samba 3.4.0 containing franky option . Samba 4 merged with Samba 3 so it can have a Active Directory Server. | May 01 13:04 |

oiaohm | Before end of year why would you run a MS ADS server when you can run a Linux one and not have to pay cals. | May 01 13:08 |
oiaohm | Its another wave of attack on MS bottem line. Also will allow NAS servers into the ADS game. | May 01 13:09 |
_Hicham_ | I am talking about interop, not setting up new ADS | May 01 13:10 |
oiaohm | Samba 3 already had connect to ADS. | May 01 13:11 |
oiaohm | Samba 4 was about be ADS or a sub servent ADS server. | May 01 13:12 |
_Hicham_ | wow | May 01 13:12 |
_Hicham_ | how will MS react to that? | May 01 13:12 |
oiaohm | Not much they can do. | May 01 13:12 |
_Hicham_ | no patents law suit? | May 01 13:13 |
oiaohm | Thinking most ADS protocals are mutent public domain protocals. | May 01 13:13 |
schestowitz | http://www.businessreviewonline.com/os... | May 01 13:13 |
oiaohm | Basically nothing. | May 01 13:13 |
oiaohm | All patents would have prior art somewhere. | May 01 13:13 |
oiaohm | Also attacking samba the samba project could play dirty thinking they got funding to built the test suit for the MS protcols for MS. | May 01 13:14 |

schestowitz | The FSF has been working with a FOSS-oriented ad site to help them in the creation of a FLOSS advertising network. The finishing touches to their new advertising model will be completed within the next week or so, and they are starting to reach out to advertisers and web sites to help build interest. BN might become part of this. | May 01 19:06 |
schestowitz | They approached us too | May 01 19:06 |
schestowitz | "I don't think you carry any display adverts currently, but would you be interested in doing so in an effort to help us to launch a free software friendly ad network? Unfortunately, too many sites that talk about free software carry proprietary adverts, so we are hoping that we can force a sea change." | May 01 19:07 |
trmanco | that's good news | May 01 19:07 |
schestowitz | I suggested they also contact Michael Larabel <michael at michaellarabel.com> from Phoronix. He's very upset about his advertising deal. At BN we got none and Shane pays the bills with AdSense. | May 01 19:07 |

schestowitz | "The label is only there to make the consumers less guilty. A gigantic public relations exercise is all." | May 01 19:12 |
schestowitz | "See the last one where they are using the 'dolphin-safe”' legislation to keep Mexico's tuna out of the US market. Now we all know the only difference between "dolphin-safe” and dolphin-unsafe” tuna is a label. I recall reading a report where, the same boats go out using the same equipment using the same methods as before they introduced "dolphin-safe” tuna." | May 01 19:12 |
schestowitz | Is this common knowledge? | May 01 19:12 |
schestowitz | My dad knew there was something funny about that label. | May 01 19:12 |

schestowitz | RMS: " The US forced an Air France plane to fly outside US airspace because one of its passengers, a respected journalist, was on the "terrorist watch list".
