Re: curl / wget login script help - only requires password .

Yeah, but that JS has to do something like an AJAX request. My thought is you figure out that AJAX request and then you can CURL to it.

Re: curl / wget login script help - only requires password .

I guess i just don't understand. CURL can do a POST pretty easily. I mean that JS has to do something, like call another page. What does the JS function do? Does it call AJAX?

sqlite rpm issue

Just thought I'd mention it
package sqlite-3.7.0.1-1.el5.art.art.x86_64 (which is newer than sqlite-3.7.0.1-1.el5.art.i386) is already installed
It's one of those funky x86_64 vs i386 issues but I'm not sure why a package would conflict with itself like that.

PHP 5.5 GA

It's not on the PHP site yet but, right on schedule, they tagged 5.5.0 on Github this morning https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/php-5.5.0/NEWS I would anticipate that 5.3.27 (in RC1) will mark EOL for 5.3 Things of note: The mysql extensions are now depreciated (this one apparently got fairly heat...

Re: ART 5.3 migration topic

Just as an FYI, PHP 5.3 will go EOL once 5.5 rolls out live (may happen tomorrow). Once that is done, it's unlikely 5.3 will see any more updates, meaning ART rolls out the last 5.3 update and maybe rolls it into a legacy channel.

Hacking the Internet to build a botnet

Fascinating whitepaper how they used insecure boxes to build a botnet that could scan the entire Internet. Kinda scary how many boxes like this are out there...

Re: Solid State Drives

I would use a SSD for a high performance DB and really not much else. SSDs are MUCH faster but have a much more limited lifetime on read/write/

Interesting read on how SSD failures can cripple you

Re: IPv6

Comcast is actually much further along than I thought. They even have a whole site dedicated to IPv6 and switching over

Sadly, I'm in this boat myself :(

Re: IPv6

Something else to throw into the mix is the fact that most people can't get an IPv6 address from their provider. I want to say Comcast is one of the few that runs DHCP for IPv6. And consider how much infrastructure is out there that doesn't support it (like consumer routers running NAT). The fact th...

Re: PHP 5.5 alpha

I didn't mean to stir up a hornet's nest but I guess that's what happened. A few comments register_globals being removed is a major problem. A lot of code relies on this. Yes, BAD BAD BAD. But it does. No major projects (Wordpress, etc) rely on it and it's been headed out the door since 4.2.0 I'd re...

PHP 5.5 alpha

Less a request and more a heads up. PHP 5.5 is now in alpha (5.4a1 came out 6/28/2011)
Not sure where 5.4 is for ASL (no major repos have it live but remi has it in testing)
